Bezos-Backed Slate Auto Unveils Affordable EV Truck: Can It Succeed in a Shaky U.S. Economy?
It's a bit hard to see; the concept is great, but I'm not sure how Americans will react, especially because of its size. I mean, the Slate Truck is basically a small car, and I'm not sure Americans are going to love that, especially when it comes to pickups. It could end up being a niche vehicle, like the Kei cars in Japan, but how's that going to play out in the U.S.? I really don't know.

5 Ways Car AC Inspection Boosts Cooling Performance
In consideration of the unusually warm summer weather, it's not a luxury but even an obligatory requirement nowadays to have a car ac inspection. As one would head to the office during peak working hours or for any highway trip, the car ac coolant makes the ride fun and comfortable and the car ac service cost is not expensive.

Slate Auto's Electric Pickup: A Bold Design That Highlights Battle Scars
I just read about this company called Slate that’s making small, no-frills pickups you can get for cheap. Actually, the idea is kind of interesting. The Slate Truck is an electric vehicle that costs under $20,000 (after federal incentives) and is supposed to go into production next year. It only seats two, but it has a bed big enough to hold a sheet of plywood. It gets about 150 miles on a charge, only comes in gray, and the only way to listen to music while driving is if you bring your phone and a Bluetooth speaker. It’s basically the bare minimum of what a modern car can be—and yet, it’s taken three years of development to get here.

Were older cars really more reliable than new cars?
That's a question that comes up a lot, especially because so many people say it—but honestly, it's just an illusion. Modern vehicles don’t need maintenance as often as classic ones. It's just that classic cars are easier to tinker with because they were designed that way.

Why Starting on a Smaller Motorcycle is Best for New Riders
Actually, this is another really common question for beginner riders. Sometimes we wonder if motorcycle licenses should be divided into different tiers based on engine size. As far as I know, in a lot of countries, beginner licenses are limited to 125cc bikes, and you move up based on your skills. The better you get, the higher the level you can ride.

Can Harley-Davidson electrify Millennials?
Actually, this is a classic question — at least for me. Sometimes I wonder why Harley-Davidson never seems to take the obvious steps, like making motorcycles that people actually want. On one hand, I get it — they don’t want to lose their core market, and they’re pretty fierce about protecting it. Basically, you have to understand what Harley riders are like: a lot of them reject modernity and have pushed back hard whenever Harley tried to change things. And Harley has lost those fights before. They can’t really do much because those are their customers — the people they have to listen to.

Motorcycle Storage Woes: Will Your Bike Start After Months of Inactivity?
Sometimes we question it. Like, when we’re busy with work and the motorcycle’s been sitting in the garage for months, the thought pops up: “Is my bike actually safe in there?” Especially for people living in four-season countries—most can only ride during the summer when the weather’s decent. The rest of the year, the bike just sits in storage.
