Shell 1952 documentary: The Diesel Story

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7CxoJhjHR4

This focuses on the path to the "modern" 2- and 4-stroke diesel with an emphasis on the designs, not on the OEMs.

Re: Motor Trend: Cadillac CTS Vsport vs Lexus GS F Sport

Automobile first drive: http://www.automobilemag.com/reviews/driven/1309_2014_cadillac_cts_vsport/ Highlights: In Vsport trim, the 2014 CTS is 400lbs lighter than the BMW 550i. It uses "naturally created" induction noise which is pumped through the audio system. I am not pleased with this ...

Re: 1942 diesel engine governor information video

All GM locomotives built prior to 1941 were built by EMC. Winton's nonlocomotive pr...

Motor Trend: Cadillac CTS Vsport vs Lexus GS F Sport

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9faBE_ceJY So this is like halfway between the performance of my V and the V2. By the way, Lexus is doing a good job in this segment! Kudos to them. But for about $60k each, the Vsport just runs away...no contest. As a 550i competitor, the V6 twin turbo makes sense. A...

Edmunds buys a 2005 MB CL65 AMG

This is awesome. Didn't Clarkson buy the lower performance version of this car, and it was terrible? http://www.edmunds.com/mercedes-benz/cl-class/2005/long-term-road-test/ $180k original price tag. They got it for $34k and it's actually in great condition with only 54k. That's just sad. I can't wai...
