  • Land Rover's DC100 Sport and DC100 concepts

    The Land Rover Defender is a tough act to follow, and Land Rover has been paying attention to critics who say the new DC100 concept is more cute-ute than off-road brute. Eager to give the DC100 a bit more testosterone, Land Rover has tweaked the recently revealed DC100 and DC100 Sport concepts in time for the upcoming 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show. According to Land Rover, the updated DC100 and DC100 Sport get “optimized off-road 20-inch wheels,” which seems like a contradiction to us, since narrow profile tires aren’t our first choice for off-road adventure. If there’s a...

  • Joint Venture 4,500-horsepower Bonneville Freightliner

    With the huge loads and huge distances that big rigs have to cope with, the big power and torque numbers they make from massive diesel engines can be a bit of a shock to those most used to cars.

And with 1,472 cubic-inches of quad-turbocharged and twin-supercharged sixteen-cylinder diesel power, it makes your average big-block muscle car feel like a Smart Fortwo. The Detroit diesel engine is...
