We all enjoy watching a car launch off a jump – just so long as it’s not our car. Which might be true for many people, but a number of brave individuals don’t mind subjecting their very own vehicles to the intense punishment that frequently follows the landing. In these two videos, a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor gets some serious air, but pays the value afterward. In the videos, two people try to jump a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor off a ramp, and are airborne for several seconds before finally landing nose-first within the dirt. Once the truck hits the bottom, its airbags deploy and hazards start to flash. The group of spectators cheers, then rushes to the scene to assist pull out the truck’s occupants. According to the comments...

A team of engineers from Chrysler’s Jeep brand recently paid a trip to an organization that focuses on restoring the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. The trip, ostensibly to benefit concerning the classic vehicles, may signal that Chrysler Group is thinking about its heritage in developing an all-new Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Texas-based Wagonmaster buys, restores, and sells old Jeep Grand Wagoneers. The corporate has restored greater than 1575 Grand Wagoneers over the past 19 years. In accordance with an email that the corporate posted to its Facebook page, a set of Jeep engineers visited because, “You have a rich history of Jeep and may help us stay true to the heritage of the emblem on future vehicles,” and so they could ask, “What are the main original details of the Grand Wagoneer...

The 2013 Scion FR-S provides rear-drive thrills and serves as a halo car for the Scion brand, but what’s left for enthusiasts who can’t afford the car’s $25,255 price of entry As early as 2016, Toyota might have a solution that’s nothing just like the relatively inexpensive MR2 that was discontinued inside the 2000s. A voice from someone on the brink of Toyota tells us that while the brand new fun-to-drive car may be positioned as a bit brother to the GT86, it’ll get four seats, five doors, a 1.5-liter engine developing around 150 hp, and be aimed toward a world audience no ahead of 2016. The recent car will totally redefine the company’s entry-level sporty cars by taking up a brand new hatchback-style shape, a rear-drive platform and a...

Bentley and Rolls-Royce could be two opposing British carmakers (with wealthy German backers), but they appear to think alike: both have released teaser videos for his or her upcoming ultra-luxurious cars. This time, however, the order appears to be backwards: Bentley (famous for the Continental GT coupe) is hawking a Flying Spur sedan, and Rolls-Royce (famous for the Phantom sedan) is previewing the Wraith coupe. To start, Bentley’s second generation of Continental goes along nicely: the coupe now offers either a W-12 or V-8, as does the GTC convertible now. Next inside the Continental line was the quicker Speed variants, in both coupe and convertible flavors. Now, it’s time for a freshening to the Flying Spur sedan. From the look and sound of the video it’ll definitely offer the W-12...

We’ve heard plenty of rumors at the new Ford Focus RS; reports have suggested we might see one as early as 2013, while others have claimed a 380-hp coupe version was within the works. This time, we’re hearing the RS will go on sale in select markets in 2015, boasting 330 hp due to a turbocharged 2.3-liter I-4, more output than the Euro-spec Mustang may get with an identical engine. While 330 horses looks as if lots of power to squeeze out of a front-drive car, the former RS’ Revoknuckle front suspension may allow the recent hot hatch to effectively put its power down without (much) torque steer. Other features for the brand new RS include a limited-slip differential, bigger brakes, tires, and a sportier cabin. Just like the ST,...
