When Argentinean artist Raul Lemesoff went to work on a rather unique project, his friends didn’t know what in the world he was thinking up. They had hunches: a submarine, car or weapon of some kind.

Raul turned the Ford into a tank that’s armored with… books. Lots and lots of them. About 900 to be exact. And he drives around giving them away for free to kids and adults, though his primary target is the…

It’s the burning question everyone’s been dying to know ever since the MTV show “Pimp My Ride” went off the air in the U.S. in 2007. All the flashy upgrades that were made to look like they only took days to complete, and when host and rapper Xzibit would surprise contestants “at home” - was it all just a well-choreographed and cunningly edited lie? You will be shocked by what some of the previous contestants had to say about their experiences.

Ford got a camera crew together and enlisted a super-bad (bad meaning awesome) stunt driver from Willow Springs, Prestin Persson, who shows a group of unsuspecting men a thing or two about how a Mustang GT should be driven.

While most of the dates seem to lack chemistry, things quickly heat up when Prestin drives to an empty parking lot and takes full advantage…

We've all heard drivers go a little crazy with their car horns: honking for long periods of time out of impatience, anger, because they're simply clowning around, or even when they're trying to get the attention of someone inside a house or apartment.

According to Arizona law 28-954, "If reasonably necessary to ensure the safe operation of a motor vehicle, the driver shall give an audible warning with the…
