1954 Buick Skylark. More Beautiful Than a 48 Roadmaster?

A few days ago I posted a blog about the styling of the post-war Buick Roadmaster (although a convertible was shown, it's the fastback that really turns my crank). It was, and still is, one of my favorites. However my good friend and former test drive buddy Colin Hefferon checked me up on t...

LaCie’s LaCinema Rugged External HDD Is One Tough Media Server

My Favorite Buick, a Roadmaster at RM's Meadowbrook Auction

Of all the vintage Buicks that I admire, perhaps none are as close to my heart as the immediate pre-war Roadmasters. The long hood, sweeping fenders and chrome-bedecked grilles do it for me, especially knowing there's a mellow inline-eight at my command. I drove one only once, during an Onta...

I Am Making The SSD Jump Thanks to Kingston V-Series Kit

President at the Pump

Imagine. In just seven years all new cars sold in America will be required to average 35 mpg. The auto industry (or what's left of it) will not go down without a lot of screaming and hair-tearing, for it hates being forced by politicians to do things it doesn't like or pretends to be tech...
