One Lap of the Web: Let's visit Amelia Island in a short bus camper

-- Ken Kesey and friends spent most of the countercultural 1960s driving across the country in a 1939 International Harvester school bus painted in psychedelic colors. Portland, Maine architect Will Winkelman might do less drugs (we don't know), but the 1959 Chevrolet Viking short bus he designed might fit Kesey and his Merry Pranksters, especially if you stacked them head-to-toe. For his client, Winkelman designed a Moroccan theme of colorful patterns and textures across the curtains and twin beds, beaded light fixtures and wood paneling everywhere, approaching the project as one might approach boat-building or a particularly run-down Detroit "fixer-upper." The result has plumbing, power, an olive-drab paint scheme that blends into the New England woods, and the overall sense of a guest bedroom that you can escape in whenever you tire of your host's company.

2013 Dodge Dart – an Alfa Giulietta with Brooks Brothers clothes

2013 Dodge Dart Teased Chrysler has resurrected a 1960s badge and taken the underpinnings of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta to create the 2013 Dodge Dart. The integration of Chrysler and Alfa Romeo is moving on, with the first Chrysler to be built on an Alfa platform arriving at Detroit Auto Show in January – the 2013 Dodge Dart. Chrysler has taken the Alfa Giulietta platform and made it bigger, creating a new platform for North America that is longer and wider than its Italian progenitor, and called it ‘Compact US Wide’ (CUSW).

How the Nissan Qashqai reinvented the family car

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai (above) arrived in showrooms this week, but will the second-generation model be as groundbreaking as the first? Inevitably, the all-new Qashqai looks very similar to the outgoing model, but why change a winning formula? The original Qashqai was, arguably, the most successful new family car launch since the original Volkswagen Golf from 1974. And it came out of the blue, because Nissan was perhaps the last company anyone would have expected to come up with such a revolutionary design.
