Jun 8, 2008, The rise and fall of the SUV

The 1963 Jeep Wagoneer was pug ugly, a rectangular box on wheels with a slanted, forlorn snout that had showroom wallflower written all over it. But it was the first modern sport utility vehicle (SUV), incorporating most of the features of today's SUVs – automatic transmission, four-wheel drive, power steering, brakes and windows, and a luxuriously appointed interior. It has been arguably the most influential 4X4 in automotive history, save for the original military Jeep MB.

Jun 4, 2008, Worlds most fuel efficient Hummer H1??

Johnathan Goodwin can get 100 mpg out of a Lincoln Continental, cut emissions by 80%, and double the horsepower. Does the car business have the guts to follow him?

"Conservatively," Goodwin muses, scratching his chin, "it'll get 60 miles to the gallon. With 2,000 foot-pounds of torque. You'll be able to smoke the tires. And it's going to be superefficient."

He laughs. "Think about it: a 5,000-pound vehicle that gets 60 miles to the gallon and does zero to 60 in five seconds!"

Jun 4, 2008, AZFJ Chiricahua Mountains Expedition Day III

The plan was to break down camp early and leave via an offroad route Miss R2 had devised which would lead us through Pine Canyon. In order to do this and have enough time to hit the dirt all the way back to Oracle we needed to get up a reasonably early hour. To my surprise, we were all up around 7:00 with the exception of one who I had to rouse by ringing a pot and making loud turkey calls. By 9:00 the trucks were lined up and ready to pull out.

Jun 2, 2008, Playwright in explorer's footsteps

Extracts from an award-winning play about the exploits of an Irish polar adventurer are to be performed in Antarctica.

Aidan Dooley, writer and solo performer of Tom Crean Antarctic Explorer, has been invited to travel to the vast continent and walk in the Kerryman's footsteps. The event has been organised to mark the 100th anniversary in 2012 of the death of British explorer Robert Scott, with whom Crean served on various expeditions in the early 20th century.

The show, which tells the story of the adventurer who took part in three manned expeditions to the South Pole, begins a 10-night run at Dublin's Gaiety Theatre from June 12.
