B-Series Bullseye: Part I
What can we say about VTEC Honda motors that hasn’t already been said thousands of times? Accolades have been bestowed upon the B-series Honda at an almost embarrassing rate—and we might add that all of its praise is well deserved. But we have already begun to turn our attention to the newer K-series motors, which by all accounts are even better motors than the B-series. They are sure to start a revolution of their own, but that is a discussion for a different day.
REVVIN’ UP AT THE ’07 AUTORAMA
Regardless of our residential location, there seems to be a specific show that we just can’t stand to miss. It’s a show we anticipate all year long, and we can’t imagine a season without attending it. It certainly isn’t the city it is held in that’s alluring; it’s the quality of the cars that show up, and there are always a few surprises, as builders spend millions of dollars competing for the prestige of winning the coveted Ridler Award.
RUGGED LUXURY
Cars and trucks are all about utilitarianism. Although vehicles have become status symbols, at the core, it’s all about getting people or things from one place to another. Through the years, Ford Motor Company has solidified its place in the annals of automotive history with its incredible lineup of consumer and commercial trucks. As the nameplate has been expanded and new options made available, Ford’s famed F-Series truly offers something for everyone.

Show-Stopping Design
This panel looks as good as it reads. Made from black polycarbonate with a slick brush-stroke finish, it turns your dash into the centerpiece of the cabin. Every gauge—speedo, tach, fuel, volts, oil, water temp—is dialed in for accuracy and legibility. Turn signal and high-beam indicators? Seamless. Automatic nighttime dimming? Yup, so you’re never squinting or distracted while driving.
Tech That Impresses
Intellitronix didn’t just make it pretty—they loaded it with features that make your truck smarter than most new rides. The speedometer hits 160 MPH and includes one-button calibration, odometer, trip meter, high-speed recall, 0–60 timer, and even ¼-mile tracking. Tachometer? 0–8000 RPM in 100 RPM increments. Volts? 10–18. Oil? 0–100 PSI. Water temp? 100–260°F. Fuel gauge? Programmable for Ford, GM, Chrysler, VDO, and aftermarket senders. Basically, it’s like strapping a miniature command center onto your dash.
