Content Section

Lorem Ipsum is a dummy text that serves as a placeholder for content yet to be written. It is an essential tool for designers, developers, and publishers in creating and testing layouts, typography, and design elements. Lorem Ipsum is a Latin phrase that translates to "pain itself" or "suffering on its own." The text is sourced from a random excerpt of Cicero's De finibus bonorum et malorum, and its scrambled syntax and non-sense words prevent distraction from the actual design.

Lorem Ipsum comes in various lengths, with different styles and variations, making it easy to find the right text for your project. It is commonly used in layouts for websites, print materials, and templates. Lorem Ipsum is an industry standard and a reliable tool for ensuring that your design layout stays consistent with the intended content. With its ease of use and practicality, Lorem Ipsum is a must-have for your toolkit as a designer, publisher, or developer.

LOWRIDER

A customized vehicle with hydraulic jacks that allow the chassis to be lowered nearly to the road.

DONK

Specifically, “donk” is the nickname for a customized 1971-76 Chevrolet Caprice or Impala. Many folks erroneously use it to describe any custom car with big wheels.

SLAMMED

Slammed cars are a rare breed – when we talk about them, we’re usually referring to the ones that you’ll often find on the ground, static, or just straight coilover setups. You can slam a car on air, but at the end of the day, you can just raise it back up again, which is cheating and doesn’t count.

LIFTED

A lifted truck is a truck that has been modified so that the body is an extra 1-3 inches off the ground, providing more clearance for the tires to give you better performance when off-roading. To have your truck lifted, visit a manufacturer-recognized upfitter like Lakewood Ford to install a lift kit.

RESTOMOD

A resto-mod is a classic car that has been restored, but modified with modern parts and technology. Aesthetically, the vehicle looks the same until you look under the hood or reach for the radio.

OFF ROAD

Is designed to help improve traction, maneuverability and handling confidence in off-road conditions such as gravel, sand and mud. Terrain — Terrain mode adjusts your vehicle’s shift mapping and traction control, and adds automatic braking to maximize performance in varying road or surface

KIT

A kit car is an automobile available as a set of parts that a manufacturer sells and the buyer then assembles into a functioning car. Usually, many of the major mechanical systems such as the engine and transmission are sourced from donor vehicles or purchased new from other vendors. Kits vary in completeness, consisting of as little as a book of plans, or as much as a complete set with all components to assemble into a fully operational vehicle such as those from Caterham.

BAGGERS

The ‘bagger’ term is used to describe a motorcycle that came with the accessorising bags. Today there are so many luggage accessories available to all sorts of bikes that in theory any bike could be called a bagger if it can accommodate a set of saddlebags.

CHOPPERS

A chopper is a type of custom motorcycle which emerged in the US state of California in the late 1950s. A chopper employs modified steering angles and lengthened forks for a stretched-out appearance. They can be built from an original motorcycle which is modified (“chopped”) or built from scratch. Some of the characteristic features of choppers are long front ends with extended forks often coupled with an increased rake angle, hardtail frames (frames without rear suspension), very tall “ape hanger” or very short “drag” handlebars, lengthened or stretched frames, and larger than stock front wheel. To be considered a chopper a motorcycle frame must be cut and welded at some point. I.e. the name chopper.

V-ROD

They are often called muscle bikes for their relatively high power output. The V-Rods are the first street motorcycles made by Harley-Davidson with overhead camshafts and liquid cooling. Harley-Davidson VRSC.

SPORT

A sport bike (sports motorcycle, or sports bike) is a motorcycle designed and optimized for speed, acceleration, braking, and cornering on asphalt concrete race tracks and roads. They are mainly designed for performance at the expense of comfort, fuel economy, and storage in comparison with other motorcycles.

SLINGSHOT

Slingshot is a three-wheeled sensation that re-ignites your love for driving. Not a car and certainly not a motorcycle, Slingshot melds the best of both worlds for a whole new way to feel the rush of the road below and the sky above.

ATV(quad)

An all-terrain vehicle (ATV) is defined as a motorized off-highway vehicle designed to travel on four low-pressure or non-pneumatic tires, having a seat designed to be straddled by the operator and handlebars for steering control. ATVs are subdivided into two types as designated by the manufacturer.

GROM & RUCKUS

Everything you need to know to start riding your first motorbike. The word comes from the world of waves and riptides; ‘grom’ is used to refer to a young surfer who’s going far and aiming to turn pro. Essentially a mini motorcycle. The Ruckus has a liquid-cooled engine that offers exactly what you’d expect from a Honda: power, reliability and great fuel efficiency. Mini Moped if you will.
