2012 Ford EcoSport arrives in Delhi

2012 Ford EcoSport - Delhi debut Ford’s new compact SUV – the Ford EcoSport – has been revealed at the Delhi Motor Show in concept guise ahead of a Summer launch.

Antique Automobile Club of America displays car collecting and its finest in Hershey

Searching for vintage car parts, literature, gas station collectables, or even a nice old car? The best place to look is the annual Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) Fall National Meet, better known as “Hershey.” Now in its 55th year, it's the world's largest old car gathering, with an 1,800-car concours, more than 1,000 cars for sale in the “car corral,” and, best of all, an astounding 9,000 flea market spaces, chock full of more automotive artifacts than you can imagine, all scattered in no particular order on 85-plus acres--that's nearly 90 football fields--or “22 miles of aisles,” as Hershey devotees say. It takes a lot of walking, but walk we did for four days, for a close-up of this fascinating offshoot of the old-car hobby.

I'll happily give up the crowded freeways and city streets if it means cheaper gas and abandoned back roads.
