The teenage boy that wrecked his father's brand-new $60,000 Ford Mustang GT (equipped with an Eleanor Package) in 2006 by driving it through a garage only minutes after a salesperson brought the car to his house, has received his so-called "Web Redemption" on Daniel Tosh's show on Comedy Central.

If for whatever reason you missed the said episode but want to know the backstory of Joey's highly publicized crash some six years after it happened, all you need to do is follow the break and watch the extended version in the video.

Teen that Crashed Dad's New Mustang GT to get his Web Redemption on Tosh.0


Back in 2006, Joey, a 14-year old teenager at the time, became an instant internet and media sensation when a friend filmed him crashing his father's brand new Ford Mustang GT with the optional Eleanor package.

The short clip showed Joey getting into the driver's seat of the manual-gearbox Mustang GT V8, which still had the factory stickers on the window, and then all of a sudden we saw Ford's pony car accelerating right into the garage wall.

The original video has since garnered close to 3.7 million views on Youtube. Now, it's time for Joey to get his so-called "Web Redemption" in the next episode of Tosh.0 that will air on Tuesday, February 21, on Comedy Central.

Ford Mustang Shows Audi R8, Ferrari California and BMW M3 who's the Boss at Hockenheim


While not uncommon, it’s not actually often that we hear about American sports cars beating European models on their home turf. Case in point, the Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca that was featured in the latest issue of German car magazine Sport Auto.

Sport Auto editor Christian Gebhard took the track-orientated Mustang special over to the Hockenheim circuit for a fast lap recording a best time of 1:13.2, which puts it behind the likes of the BMW M5 F10 (1:12.9) but in front of the Audi R8 4.2 FSI (1:13.4), Aston Martin DBS (1:13.5) and Ferrari California (1:13.5).

U Film: New Ford Ranger Spotted in Malaysia Pulling Four Trucks from the Competition


In what looks like some sort of a publicity stunt from Ford Malaysia, Carscoop reader Hafiz Zainal filmed the brand new Ford Ranger tugging four rivaling pickup trucks including (from back to front) the previous generation of the Ranger, the Mitsubishi Triton (called L200 in Europe), the Toyota HiLux and an Isuzu D-Max.

Both Rangers had an "On Tow" sign at the front and at the back and seemed to be just riding around - obviously to pique the interest of local buyers.

Detroit Show Video: Is this the 2013 Shelby GT500 Convertible or did Ford's Rep Make a Mistake?


Without getting into any names, the crew over at Jalopnik are making it a point to prove Autoblog (the dot com one) wrong on its assumption that Ford will reveal the 2013 Shelby GT500 Convertible at the rapidly approaching Detroit Motor Show.

We decided to take a look around and see what we could find and the result was this official Ford video that just came out with a company representative taking us for a quick tour around the Blue Oval's booth at the Cobo center in Detroit.

Gisele Keeps Abreast of Detroit's Sports Car Offerings, Rides a Mustang Turbo [Video]


In today's world, when you have a good thing going, you don't want to put the pause button on it. After seeing the success of Gisele's spin in a Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, the hooter-loving crew over at Hightechcorvette called in the young lady for another high-speed run, this time in a turbocharged Ford Mustang.

Gisele was apparently more than willing to place the seatbelt under her arm to get a taste of the Blue Oval's signature pony car, no doubt to compare it with Cadillac's V8-powered sports coupe.

We'll have to wait and see if she completes the trilogy with a ride in a Chrysler Group sports car in the not so far future. For now, head over the break for some bouncing action.

Mythbuster: Are Modern Truck and Car Emissions Comparable to that of Lawn Blowers? [Video]


With government agencies enforcing stricter emission regulations every year and auto manufacturers doing their best to prove that their cars are as eco-friendly as possible, hyperbole is part of the game.

A common saying is that the modern cars are cleaner than lawn equipment and that the carbon dioxide emissions they release are actually lower than that present in the air that comes into the combustion chamber.

Edmund's Insideline decided to put the theories to the test. Since cars come in all shapes and sizes, they chose two examples from the opposite side of the spectrum: a Fiat 500 mini and a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Crew Cab pickup.

The diminutive Fiat is powered by a 1.4-liter four with 100HP, while the big and menacing-looking Raptor sports a 411HP 6.2-liter V8.

Video: Yep, That's a Great Parking Job


Perhaps the driver of this new Ford C-MAX minivan didn't want to get his or her front tires wet, or maybe he or she was in a hurry for an appointment and didn't notice […] the u-shaped metal fitting sprouting out from the road. Whatever the case, we'd love to hear how the driver of the car explains this mishap to his/her insurance agent. Aftermath video follows after the break. Read more »

Santa Claus Takes a Ride on the Wild Side in a Ford Fiesta S2000 WRC [Video]


They say Christmas is a time for giving, and Ford's European division did exactly that by inviting Joulupukki over from his home in Lapland to Hungary to take part in in a number of charity events over the coming days.

For those of you wondering, Joulupukki is not the Finnish version of Jalopnik but as we learned from the all-knowing Wikipedia, Finland's version of Santa Claus with the name literally meaning "Yule Goat" or "Christmas Goat".

Watch a Ford F-150 Raptor SVT Molest a Toyota Corolla Just for Fun [Video]


Ford's F-150 Raptor SVT is one of those trucks that doesn't make much sense but somehow people like it and are willing to buy it despite its lofty $42,000+ price tag (in the States).

Being big, brawny and surprisingly powerful thanks to the ferocious 6.2-liter V8 with 411-ponies that's lurking under the hood, definitely helps.

Now there's a question of what to do once you get yourself in a F-150 Raptor SVT and while we can think of many things, for this particular owner, the answer was to climb over a Toyota (Corolla we believe). Whatever pops your cork...Watch the clip after the jump.

The new 2012 Focus ST hasn’t even hit the road yet, but Ford's first global performance model has already secured a position as the star car of the upcoming British blockbuster film, The Sweeney, which is based on the original TV series that aired in the UK between 1975 and 1978.

Ford was strongly connected to the 1970s Sweeney TV series as the stars of the police drama used Ford Granadas, Consuls and Cortinas to tackle violent crime in London.
