Review: Drop Stop Car Wedge
Drop Stop Car Wedge is a simple product that does one thing very well. It blocks the gap between your car seat and the center console, so that you can't drop stuff down into that hard to reach spot. I have been using one, and It works great. I do notice that I can feel the right side of my seat is button cushion is a little bit firmer due to compression, but it doesn't bother me.The wedge is...

Sonic Drop Breaks Down?
Chevy is doing a stunt to promote the new Sonic b-car. They are dropping it off of a huge tower attached to a bungee cord, and using web clicks to move it towards the edge of the leap. Looks like it broke, though. I hope those guys are careful....

Ford Quietly Kills Off Hybrid Escape?
Ford has announced that the next Escape, based on the European Kuga, will come with 3 flavors of I4 engines, 1.6L Ecoboost (GTDI), 2.0L Ecboost, and 2.5L NA. No mention was made of the hybrid powertrain currently available, giving Ford bragging rights to "most fuel efficient SUV". So it looks like Ford is quietly killing off the hybrid Escape in favor of the C-Max hybrid and plug-in hybrid. If I have this wrong, Ford PR is...
