A Lamborghini Sport-Ute? Let's Talk About This
/
/
comments
Okay, I’m no big fan of Sport Utes. I don’t particularly like them in any variety, even though I do have an unexplainable desire for a Volvo XC90. So my first reaction to these conceptual renderings was very likely the same as yours: “Kill It With Fire”. But hold on there, Sparky. Let’s talk about…

On St. Patrick's Day, Celebrate Excess!
/
/
comments
In the fine tradition of St. Patrick’s Day, we here at Hooniverse acknowledge that most people will use it as the traditional excuse to pretend to be Irish and drink themselves into a stupor. Being one of the millions whose family history is actually Irish, I find the whole tradition quite amusing. I have heard…

In A Snowbank, No-One Can Hear You Scream: The Hooniversal Polar Expedition, Part III
/
/
comments
In the previous chapter, we explored all the various forms of training and preparation for a mission to the North Pole that we successfully ignored in favour of drinking nice cups of coffee and strong forms of alcohol. Eventually we realized that our training was never going to be properly completed, and was really just…

Mini-Trucks: A Supporting Argument
/
/
comments
In honour of yesterday’s question about mini-trucks (I know, I couldn’t get this article published in time yesterday), I think it’s only fair that I submit a little bit of research I’ve been doing on my own in the last little while. I submit, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, that there is indeed a…

Something Wicked This Way Comes

[Our beloved Ambersand submitted this some time ago, and due to my own incompetence I somehow missed it, or forgot about it, or lost it. We tried to get it all polished up and ready to run yesterday, but we weren’t quick enough. As such, we’re running it today. Got an article you think we’d…

Name That Car: Blame engineerd Edition
/

comments
As we all know, engineerd was at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit with UDMan last week. Because he’s a bit of a bastard, he decided to take a few ultra-close photos of tiny little details that should define a vehicle for people who know them. Unfortunately, he’s taking photos of concept cars…

This beautiful little Subaru 360 has been sitting on Craigslist for sale for some time now. And the longer it sits there, the longer our beloved damnElantra™ starts going crazy.

History Road 2010: Simplificate and Add Lightness — The Prequel
/
/
comments
Years before Colin B. Chapman, CBE, instituted his oft-stated mantra of “simplify and add lightness”, that mentality was in wide use during the 1920s and 30s amongst those few brave souls willing to undertake the sport of auto racing. In fairness, those lads may have taken it significantly further. They may also have had balls…

comments
This past weekend, I met up with Hooniverse commenters Number_Six and CaffeineFuelled in the small town of Wetaskiwin, Alberta. Every year, the Reynolds Automotive Museum in that town puts on an enormous car show known as History Road. Over the next few days, I’ll be sharing some of the amazing automotive exhibits that were on…

Fellow Hoon Buys Greatest Shed Ever
/
/
comments
There are really two ways to look at this purchase by a close friend of fellow Hoon Citroen67. The first way of looking at it is that he just purchased a rather quirky and obscure vehicle that will probably serve him very well as a support vehicle for his group of friends’ growing fleet of…
