Horsepower is What You Pay For and Torque is What You Love!
So why do I feel like that’s just the “simple” definition?


The fact is almost no one can define horsepower and torque, but they know it when they feel it. There’s a reason why it takes mechanical engineers to define torque and its relationship to horsepower, much less how it is measured where it counts—at the drive wheels. It’s COMPLICATED! In fact, it is so complex that we are used to throwing around horsepower numbers and torque (in pound-feet, no less) that we can use the figures for comparison and still not have the foggiest idea what they really mean.

McCloud’s 61st Annual Lumberjack Fiesta
A weekend of competition all in good fun – and for a good cause!


A few weeks after the Fourth of July fireworks have subsided and the kids realize there’s only a month or so left before school starts again, northern California will keep your spirits up with its annual Lumberjack Fiesta. Held for over 50 years in the mountainous region of McCloud and Mount Shasta, this year’s festival will be on July 26 and 27 under the beautiful pine trees of Hoo Hoo Park. In celebration of McCloud’s “Lumber Town” heritage, the Fiesta includes everything from amateur logging competitions to an old-fashioned Main Street Parade. Even better, all funds benefit McCloud youth sports.

2008 BMW 128i Convertible is the Drop-Top for the Times
The BMW 1 Series Convertible does its thing for the economy.


The 2008 BMW 128i Convertible is a summer-fun kind of car making its debut during a summer that’s not much fun for car owners. However, for those who take a close look at the 128i Convertible will realize that summer fun is within their means after all. Consider the price. Consider the mileage. Consider the fun. It’s time for the ONE!

BMW Invents the Sports Activity Coupe and Calls It the X6
The all-new X6 is an SUV that looks like a sedan and handles like a sportscar.


The 2009 BMW X6 creates its own niche in the “crossover” segment. How many 407 hp, four-door coupes with off-road credentials can you name? Thought so. The X6 introduces a number of technical breakthroughs under the hood and between its wheels. With a 4.4-liter V8 cranking out 442 lb/ft of torque and twin turbos supplying afterburner boost, the X6 is a beast, no matter what you call it.

The Master of Suspense
Here’s to the one who virtually invented the thriller genre.


His movies are referenced in countless other movies and even on television. You might even whistle the theme song to his television series or easily recognize that iconic silhouette.

Clear the Car Chaos!
No one wants to take a ride in a messy car. It’s time to get your clean on!


It may not come as a surprise that we probably spend more time in our cars than in certain rooms of our homes. However, while our homes get spring cleanings and dustings, our cars may miss out on some housekeeping. Fear not! Keeping your car clean and neat is easier than you think!

Cut the Cake and the Costs on Your Wedding Day
Easy ways to save – and no one will ever know!


The average wedding in the United States costs about $20,000 – roughly the price of a nice, brand new car. Whether the car will last longer than the marriage is up for debate, but it will certainly last longer than that one day of bliss. While a wedding should be a day of indulgence, there’s no reason to go into debt in order to have a beautiful day of matrimony. Here’s a list of great ways to cut costs on your wedding:
