Who’s to blame for the current spike in oil prices and who exactly is benefiting? It seems everyone has an answer to these questions lately. Regardless of whether one believes that we should drill the ANWR region, end oil speculation, boost refinery capability, or pressure automakers to deliver fuel-efficient or electric vehicles, it still doesn’t take away the current sting of paying more for gas than we’ve ever experienced.

That sting has been aptly called “nozzlerage.” Some creative filmmakers decided to channel their nozzlerage into an entertaining video on youtube.

Many in the green transportation field see high gas prices as the ultimate motivator to shift the transportation paradigm on a mass scale. Not only are Americans starting to think differently about fossil fuel usage, but they are also acting differently. Current prices have led to the greatest change in driving behavior since the 1970s. While this change is still only a 1% drop in average miles driven over a six month period, it is considered a “historic” phenomenon.

Perhaps nozzlerage can be good thing?

Human-powered "Dogsled" cycle shows up for Dream Cruise

Running alongside the Woodward Dream Cruise this year will be the NextCruise, a green-minded alternative to the petrol-head event. It looks as if the idea of parading down Woodward Avenue along with classic cars, exotics and Hot Rods has brought out some innovative thinkers who have built “The Dogsled,” a human-powered four-wheeled cycle-thing. Though its final destination is said to be the next Burning Man event, its creators have brought it out to play this weekend in Detroit. All four of its riders pedal with their combined power going to the right rear wheel. The opposite wheel provides the stopping power. The entire machine is welded up from steel and the ladder-style frame looks downright beefy with all of its triangulation. Full suspension comes by way of old-school leaf springs for the solid axles while the passenger compartment has extra coil-overs for a cushy ride. Very impressive work that we hope to see cruising ourselves when we visit Detroit this weekend.

1949 Mercury Convertible Restoration Part 12

My son, Richard and I decided to go ahead and weld the stress cracks in the frame before it was blasted. I also made some reinforcement plates for the rear frame above the rear spring brackets. This was an obvious weak area from the factory. Richard welded them at the same time he welded the [...]

Here is a great commercial clip that I came across and had to share. I have done some work on a 1970 ‘Cuda 440 and a 1969 Road Runner and they are great looking cars. I am also a big fan of vintage aircraft. Enjoy!

Renault Revives Safrane

caran — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 09:17:17 +0000

Introduced in 1992 instead of the famous Renault 25 and in operations till 2000, the French automakers decided to replace Safrane with the remarkable Vel Satis. But that didn’t affect sales as they expected, so now the company is thinking of reviving it as a mid-size luxury sedan but the news aren’t THAT great.

Apparently the [...]

Do you remember Johan and his problem with speed (or better said the lack of visible traffic enforcement)? Like Johan, there are many of us that like to pedal to the metal.

The first thing that came to my mind when seeing this picture was to thank God, that’s not the way our authorities try to [...]
