The 2020 Honda Civic Type R was announced this week, and with it come a host of changes that make the fun-to-drive front-wheel-drive car likely even better. A revised front suspension tune is said to improve steering feel and reduce friction, while new dampers will provide a more comfortable ride. New brakes should increase stopping power, and new blue paint hue is quite fetching. Another in a series of Harley-Davidson pickup is on the way, but this one's not a Ford. Tuscany Motor Co. of Elkhart, Indiana, is introducing the 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 Harley-Davison pickup truck at the...
