Modern vehicles grow more complex and more computerized with every passing model year, and that complexity is starting to show up in the form of increasing dependability issues, even at Toyota, long the industry benchmark for durability. Recent recall actions tied to the automaker’s new twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V6, which serves as a V8 replacement across high-volume body-on-frame models, including the latest Lexus GX, have only sharpened the concern. 2010-2023 Lexus GX: All The Specs The second-generation Lexus GX debuted in the US for the 2010 model year as the GX 460 and remained on sale with only incremental updates until…

The cost of groceries and fuel is pushing the everyday American into a dire situation. People are using credit cards to make ends meet and cutting back as the prices continue to soar. If You Think Prices Are High Now, Just Wait Until The Shortages Really Start Kicking In Consumer prices rose 4.2% from a year earlier and increased 0.5% on a monthly basis, with higher gasoline costs adding pressure on household budgets across the country, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported on Wednesday. Energy prices accounted for more than 60% of the monthly rise in the Consumer Price…
The sound was abrupt. Rapid chittering shrieked inches away from my head. The small birds, locked in battle, divebombed past me. I looked up from the trail in surprise, and suddenly, the aspens were whirling. My concentration broken, I’d lost my footing and was falling fast toward the trail. I tucked and rolled, bashing my leg into a log on the way. I came to a rest on my back. Green leaves rustled 50 feet above me. White trunks of the aspens arced toward the cobalt sky. I lay still. My leg, shoulder, and hands ached. But all I could…
Mitsubishi and Ford worked together in the 1980s to produce pickup trucks for the American market. That’s a partnership that still boggles the mind today, 40 years later. The partnership is made all the more surprising by the fact that Chrysler held a 15% stake in Mitsubishi Motors Corporation in the early 1980s, so Mitsubishi apparently had a pretty mercenary attitude about who it would and wouldn’t do business with. A New York Times report from June 1982 states that Mitsubishi was on board for a “three-year agreement” which would see the Japanese brand selling “up to 75,000 2.3-liter turbo…

This article was originally published by Jeremy E. Powell at The Mises Institute. It needs no special introduction to argue that, after years of repeated lockdowns, restrictions, and vaccination pressures that violate both choice and conscience, the ongoing panic from global media and potentiality for lockdowns will undoubtedly land poorly in today’s polarized environment. It isn’t complicated to understand why. Those three years of lockdowns, restrictions, and vaccination pressures weren’t about abstract data or ideals. For many people, they represented isolation, business closures, loss of jobs and years, and a time where walking out of the house could have gotten you arrested…
I’m not going to sit here and tell you that driving while under the influence of anything is a good idea. Anyone with a functional brain knows that it’s not. DUI can not just lead to your own death, but also the death of others. The hell of it is, drunks are often the only survivors of DUI crashes, which is some kind of perverse irony that I wish wasn’t a thing. Those guilty of DUI can face all kinds of penalties, ranging from fines all the way up to jail time, and they typically…
Salesforce and the U.S. Air Force recently inked a $72 million contract, described as a natural evolution of the current state of military operations that aligns with the “massive revolution” kickstarted by artificial intelligence. The $72 million Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) is described by the longtime cloud-based industry stalwart as an effort to accelerate digital transformation and mission readiness with Missionforce National Security, which entails the company’s focus on national security based on its work alongside the Department of Defense, the intelligence community in the Associated Aerospace and Defense Government Systems Integrator, and the defense industrial base. This ELA will…
For veterans Rachel Hughes and Michael Deardorff, relief from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and the physical toll of serving in the military was somewhat unexpectedly relieved by a four-legged friend. Hughes, an Army veteran, and Deardorff, who served in the Marine Corps, both received service dogs through Dogs, Inc., a company providing highly trained companion dogs to veterans. Hughes, who retired as a master sergeant after 22 years in the Army, was matched with Byner in 2023. The dog not only helps Hughes manage her PTSD, but he also gives her motivation to get out of bed each morning and…

The US Virgin Islands is one of the most anti-gun territories in the United States. They seem to have no respect for gun rights, with might not be relevant if they weren’t a US territory and thus subject to the Constitution. I’m not sure the lawmakers there really seem to understand that, though, with their history of gun-grabbing, but it doesn’t make it any less true. And they’re at it again, this time with a bill containing numerous provisions, including a “vampire rule.”That’s led the Second Amendment Foundation to tell them they really should back…
Ohio gun owners who feel the need to temporarily remove firearms from their home will soon be able to turn to gun stores or their local police departments for help. Lawmakers in both the House and Senate have unanimously agreed to allow “any owner of a lawfully possessed firearm or a person authorized by the owner of a lawfully possessed firearm” to store a firearm with a federally licensed firearms dealer or with a law enforcement agency “upon application and agreement.” These voluntary off-site storage measures are, thankfully, becoming increasingly popular in red states as…
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday he had called off new military strikes on Iran, suggesting progress had been made in talks to end the war just hours after the American leader threatened to escalate the conflict by seizing control of Iran’s oil industry. Trump said in a social media post that he made the move after a breakthrough in negotiations, and that significant points under discussion “have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved.” The announcement came after two days of back-and-forth attacks between the U.S. and Iran had…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. The Fiat Mirage and the Physical Foundation of Wealth The U.S. dollar, once the world’s reserve currency, is rotting from within because the West has lost its productive edge. As I explained in my 2024 interview with Chris Olson, bank profits dropped 44% in late 2023, and the system is straining under the weight of unpayable debt. [1] The simple truth is that paper money is a promise printed on nothing, and promises break when the issuer runs out of strength. Fiat money is just a claim slip on future energy,…

I can tell you what they didn’t do; they didn’t run to Walmart and purchase an antibiotic ointment or a sore muscle rub.

With my thumb on the throttle, my e-cruiser — the Tenways Wayfarer — and I sped down the double-wide dirt road. I was mesmerized by the reflection of Mt. Crested Butte’s towering pyramid-shaped rock face on the surface of Peanut Lake. Suddenly, I realized how smooth the ride was despite the sea of potholes. It nearly felt like I was cruising across pavement. Such a cushiony, floaty ride is thanks to the extra-wide saddle, suspension seat post, high-volume tires, 27.5-inch wheels, and upright geometry of the Wayfarer. The front fork with adjustable air suspension and the motor’s ultra-smooth acceleration are…
DOJ Civil Rights Division head Harmeet Dhillon has been the shining Second Amendment bright spot of the Trump administration’s almost schizophrenic approach to gun rights. She’s done more than stood firm; she’s gone out and aggressively addressed state and local governments’ attempts to restrict people’s gun rights. She set up the Second Amendment Section of her division to focus on these issues, even. But the problem is that for every lawsuit they file, there are 12 or more laws out there that we know also need to be addressed.What’s more, in a recent interview, Dhillon…
Xbox is in for another round of major layoffs in July, as CEO Asha Sharma stated that an overhaul of Microsoft’s gaming division will begin in the days ahead. As of this writing, it is currently unclear how many jobs at Xbox and its various gaming subsidiaries will be affected by the impending cuts. Sharma’s announcement came just two days after Xbox Chief Strategy Officer Matthew Ball shared a look at the state of Xbox Game Pass. Following a controversial price hike in October 2025, Ball said that Xbox Game Pass lost millions of subscribers across the globe. In April,…
