Picture it: You finally have some break-in miles on your new 2024 Ford Mustang GT. You could take it to the local dealership for an oil change, but you're a hands-on person who prefers tackling the simple stuff. You pull out the ramps, get your bucket ready, and then slide under the car to find a big black panel covering the engine. No sweat, just look for the access door to reach the filter.

Friends, the Chevrolet Camaro is dead. But it's not forgotten. That will never happen so long as we have instant access to 20 gazillion videos on YouTube, more than a few of which are devoted to the Camaro.

Restoring and modernizing a classic vehicle using a mish-mash of parts might be a hit-or-miss prospect, but this 1967 Ford F-100 with a 4.6-liter modular V8 mill looks quite lovely.

According to the Blue Oval's 2023 sales results, the Ford Mustang has outsold every other sports car offered in the US — not just the Dodge Challenger and Chevrolet Camaro. Both those rivals are on their way to the scrapyard in the sky, but other sports cars aren't.
The last Chevrolet Camaro was made last month, and with it comes GM's bow out in the muscle car arena. But wipe your tears as we witness a final shootout between the outgoing model and its newer crosstown muscle car rival, the Ford Mustang, courtesy of YouTube's Sam CarLegion.
But as we get excited about all the new vehicles heading our way, it's also time to shed a tear for models that were given the chop, or phased-out, in 2023.
