Most of the vehicles we use on a day-to-day basis are primarily used because we have to use them.  They are required.  We love our bikes and cars but for the most part they get [...]

It's almost that time of year when the term "beach weather" starts slipping into every network weatherman's vocabulary.  As his or her hand glides across a screen of five straight Ray-Ban rocking suns we start thinking about ways [...]
