Flash Into the Future: 2011 Ford Explorer


This is what the 2011 Ford Explorer is believed to look like. It will be based off of the Explorer American Concept that was shown off at the 2008 Detroit Auto Show. No doubly Ford with include the EcoBoost engine as a possible option to the Explorer but even without the EcoBoost, the 2011 is supposedly going to see a 25% increase in gas mileage.

The Stingray Vette is Back!!!


Although I have to admit, I personally don't think its the best looking car. I also don't see the true resemblance to the Stingray either. This Corvette first debuted at the Chicago Auto Show as the new auto bot in the Transformers Series. Some believe this could be the new generation of Corvettes for come however I don't see GM changing a winning car so radically and with GM's current situation, i don't believe they want to pour that much money into changing a super car either.

With Fords new Ecoboost engines coming up, they hope to provide consumers the option to add a I4 Ecoboost on ever car they offer by 2013.
