An aspect of buying a new car that you may not think about is getting preapproved for a loan rather than prequalified. When you get yourself prequalified for a loan, your lender has not done the background requirements you will need to meet to get a loan. It is simply a way to show you if you have the chance to qualify for a loan, how much you could get, and what your payments might look like.Getting preapproved is a different road. When you do this, the lender has done background checks to ensu...

People keep telling us the horsepower war between German automakers is a thing of the past. How, then, will they explain the new2019 Mercedes-AMG G63, which is more powerful than ever? This mighty offroader now packs an insane 585 horsepower from a 4.0 liter V8. Based on the new generation of the G-Wagen with its cute new lights and fancy interior, the2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 is also the most capable iteration of this car ever built. Zero to 100 km/h takes only 4.5 seconds. That alone is mind-boggling in a car this size. Thelimited maximum speed of 220 km/h, or 240 km/h with the AMG Driver‘s package, is the other astonishing figure, no less than the titanic 850 Nm of torque the engine gener...

If you look around the options list for pretty much every single new car that comes out these days, you notice a bunch of parts and accessories that only a few years ago where the specialty of the aftermarket firms.

For a consumer getting their parts and accessories from the original manufacturer sounds like a better deal. For one thing, these parts are designed and built by the same people who have made the car. So they work better with the car. There is also less hassle with fit and finish, seeing as these are inst...

More and more car makers are delving into the field of offering parts and accessories usually thought to be the realm of aftermarket specialists. This takes the bread right out of the tuners’ mouth, but for the consumers it is better since they get a factory-authorized upgrade. That is not the case with the2018 Nissan Titan pickup truck, which gets a factory-fitted suspension lift kit. The kit available for the Titan is developed by ICON Vehicle Dynamics, a well-known tuner and restomoder. The system they have devised for the 2018 Nissan Titan gives the truck an additional 3 inch of ground clearance. Now, a lift kit on a pickup truck serves more purposes than giving the vehicle a badass ...

But they are branching out, and one of the projects they have in mind is this weird and interesting offroad vehicle. This road-legal “expedition” vehicle is being built with the ultimate goal of driving up a volcano and setting aWorld Altitude Record at 7,000 meters. That explains the design of the Glickenhaus offroader and the whole arrangement viz-a-viz suspension and wheels and underpiings. The central driving position could also be justified in the same vein, although we have to wait and see if it makes it into the final production model. There are going to be a couple of...
