Myself and a few other journalists were talking shop over lunch today and one of us wondered which automaker would be next to adopt the North American Charging Standard for electric vehicles. The same standard developed and used by Tesla.

Nissan jumped on the bandwagon last week.

So, B and B, who's next?

I head to Los Angeles today for a press drive that will include some autocrossing.

I, personally, am not a fast autocrosser. Sometimes I'm a bit too conservative, strategy-wise, and other times I push a little harder but I don't balance the car well enough to walk the fine line between being aggressive and sliding off course and killing cones -- and thus, one's time.

Still, I enjoy it.

I had to come to a complete stop in the middle of a two-lane highway in upstate New York last week because a deer decided to cross the road in front of me.

Porsche is adding some neat features to its smartphone-mirroring systems -- which has me wondering, what else can be added?

We reported yesterday about the resistance Ford is facing toward building a new plant. So naturally, I wanted to hear what you think.

Watching NASCAR's race at Atlanta last night, I started thinking about how the manual transmissions on the next-gen cars are sequential and that the drivers don't need to use the clutch pedal to shift. This led me down a mental rabbit hole to my youth and the first manual-transmission vehicles I remember driving -- farm tractors.

Bear with me -- I am going somewhere with this, I promise.

I posted yesterday that in my opinion, NASCAR should continue to mix up the types of tracks it races on.

Now it's your turn.

Yesterday we posted yet again about whether or not the long-rumored Apple car might or might not happen.

It's the day after the Fourth of July and we're all dragging a bit. So, what do you do to counteract the post-fireworks malaise?

I will be leaving in a few minutes to head to downtown Chicago to work on our coverage of NASCAR's Grant Park 220 race. So, with that in mind, I have a question for you.

Scanning the news today, I came across a story about Infiniti's plans to unveil four new models, and while this could've been a standard news post, I decided it also worked as a QOTD.

We reported yesterday on how Oregon is finally allowing drivers to use self-serve gas pumps.

Autoblog reports via Autocar that no one should expect the Volkswagen Beetle (or Scirocco) to ever return.

With Washington State dethroning California as the state with the highest gas prices, I am wondering -- what are you seeing near you?

Cars.com's American-Made Index list for this year is out and it's getting buzz this week. We covered part of it the other day.

Yours truly also said through a Zoom briefing on the list.
