- 2008 Volvo V70 Road Test
By: John Blackson | - The V70, available only in front drive with a 3.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine, rings up at a base price of $33,210. At that number, the V70 is an entirely different proposition. Its even $6240 cheaper than the six-cylinder S80 and $4310 less that its all-wheel-drive sibling, the XC70. And despite the price break, the V70 rides on the same platform as the S80. That means the same crash structure and the same safety equipment: front, side, and curtain airbags; anti-whiplash headrests; and ...

- Come On Baby Light My Fire
By: Mike Rosania | - My 2001 Dakota has always been good to me. It has a bed large enough to accommodate all of my needs, a comfortable interior, and best of all, a big engine; I sprung for the 250-horsepower 5.9-liter V8. The power, the sound, the speedI love it all. The only problem is that I've had the truck for seven years now and I feel like my driving experience has lost its passion. It's like dating someone for a few years and getting to the point where there are no more surprises. It ...

- Why You Need A Performance Exhaust?
By: Michelle Betz | - To ensure car manufacturers meet the expectations of the mainstream customer, many of today's cars leave the factory with low-velocity, ultra-quiet exhaust systems.
