This East Texas homeboy has LS swapped his Chevrolet S10 pickup. With its rear-wheel drivetrain and spacious engine bay, the S10 is a popular vehicle among enthusiasts looking to stuff a V8 where a four or six-cylinder once rested.

Sparse modifications include a Summit Racing Stage 2 camshaft and a full accoutrement of bolt-ons. Shifting duties are handled with a 4L60E automatic transmission using a 2,300-stall converter.

This short clip documents pretty Emelia Hartford taking delivery of a very rare and brand-new Ferrari. Of course – as the car is unloaded – a snowstorm hits sunny California and gums up the works. Not to be outdone by weather, Emelia climbs behind the wheel and puts this $400k Italian supercar through its paces anyway. Keep in mind that there are only three of these cars in the U.S. A hybrid powerhouse, the Ferrari 296 GTB is powered by a 2.9-liter, 120-degree, twin turbocharged V6 engine capable of producing 654hp. Add to that figure, a lithium-ion powered electric motor Read More
