While the winter around much of the Midwest was pretty mild, your author breaking out the short pants on a few occasions in December and January, spring has truly sprung, and with it the return of days when middle-aged men garage their mid-life crisis Wranglers in favour of their mid-life crisis Merc SL500s. Because what better way to show off the tan you’ve been working on all winter than in a drop top? For the rest of us, here are some new and classic options for how petrolheads can enjoy the warmer months and feel the breeze in what’s left of our hair.

12 Best Car Model Names for Babies

12 Best Car Model Names for Babies

A couple friends of mine recently had their second adorable little child and named it Ben, which I learned was short for Benton, which is fortunately not the same as “Bentley,” which is the most overused car-model-as-baby-name since Mercedes. Though I was dismayed at the fact that they had not followed through on a promise to name the child after Yangervis Solarte, it did jog my mind on what a huge potential car model names have as baby names.

Sure, it may be too cold to wrench on a project car too extensively and your convertible top will almost certainly remain in the “shut” position, but with some basic preparation, you can remain happily motoring even when the white stuff is falling. Most insurance companies and AAA have some solid checklists on how to prepare your car, but if you have time for only twelve things, here is what I’d recommend.

The 12 Best Cars for the Fuel Glut

If you haven't noticed by now, the cost of fuel is at its lowest in many years. In fact, I passed a station selling 87 octane (without a car wash) for $1.37/gallon yesterday and it got me wondering how best to celebrate the current overstock of oil driving our prices to such historic lows.
