Hooniverse Asks: Is Genesis here to stay now?
/
/
comments
Genesis has taken a few cracks at this now. The first was as a quasi-sub-model sitting atop the Hyundai lineup. Next, it was a half-hearted attempt to make Genesis its own brand. Now, the lineup has been revamped. The styling is unique. Those cabin spaces are excellent. And the driving experience is strong. Yet Genesis…

Hooniverse Asks: Does your car sound good during a cold start?

comments
When you first fire up your car in the morning, does it get all wonderfully growly and snarly? Or does it just whir-whir-whir-sputter-cough-bang and chug to life? Regardless of what your car does, you’re aware that some cars sound delightful upon that twisting that key or pressing a starter button for the first time in…

Hooniverse Asks: Is the Lamborghini Sian ugly?

comments
Dating back ten years, the Lamborghini Aventador is one of the oldest supercars on the market. While this lifespan may seem like eons in the car world, it’s typical of a V12 Lamborghini. The four flagships that came before the Aventador — the Miura, Countach, Diablo, and Murcielago — reigned for over four decades. But…

Hooniverse Asks: Can you sell me a bad car?

comments
I’ll often get asked about the best cars for sale right now. Rarely, I’m also asked about the worst cars for sale or if there are any bad cars right now. The answer is really that it all depends on what you want out of your vehicle. But at the moment, it’s hard to call any…

Hooniverse Asks: Are you DIYing any modifications to your vehicle?

The mudflaps on my Montero are not in great shape. Well, the rear ones aren’t there and the fronts have been hacked so just a portion remains that contains the bracket. I’ve been searching for stock replacements for quite some time now. I’ve found a few that are too expensive. I bought one at a good…

Hooniverse Asks: Have you tried any of those online ticket fighting services?
/

comments
Some guy I know… let’s call him Geoff. Let’s say he allegedly got a ticket for rolling through a red light while making a right turn. The ticket for doing that is likely expensive and adds points to a driving record. That means a potential rise in car insurance prices and other issues. Poor Geoff,…

Hooniverse Asks: What’s your favorite tool brand?

comments
Over the weekend, I posed a question on Twitter asking folks about their favorite socket sets. The answers varied, as you’d expect, but not by a large margin. The general consensus seems to be that Husky, Tekton, and Harbor Freight are solid choices for the at-home wrench. Modern Craftsman stuff gets a “No thanks!” from…

Hooniverse Asks: What’s the most important thing you keep in your car?
/

comments
For some, it’s going to be a spare key. Others need a few quarts of oil to keep the magic alive. Decades ago, it may have been a bag phone in case you got stranded under an expansive sky with no friends on either horizon. Today that’s not likely the case, but I am curious as…

Hooniverse Asks: What’s your favorite part about your garage?

comments
I’m a bit giddy this morning. Back in November, I ordered new garage storage and it recently arrived. Today it’s getting installed and my stoke, as they say, is quite high. The poorly painted wall I’ve been staring at for months will now feature a tall cabinet, two smaller cabinets up high, a wooden workbench,…

You just bought a new, or new to you, motorcycle. There are great rides in your future. You are an excited person and the road beckons. But what else beckons first? You know you are going to modify your machine somehow. So I want to know about the first upgrade or upgrades you’re fitting to…
