Power and fuel-efficiency all wrapped up in one very muscular package might sounds impossible, but Ford has yet again proven that they're more than willing to challenge the norm. Meet the 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, the most fuel-efficient sports car in the 500-horsepower range. Yup, even at 662 ponies of power, the MPG ratings of the new GT500 are up by one mile-to-the-gallon compared to last year's model. It's also, officially...

It wasn't so long ago that Americans began holding their wallets a little closer to their chests while they watched the economy struggle. It also meant that major purchases - a new car, a new home, new appliances - were put on hold. So the fact that three major automakers recently reported a huge jump in sales last month is the bright spot we've all been looking for. Yes, folks, people are definitely buying cars...

Well, the verdict is in: the latest trim level for the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee is officially called Altitude. The name was chosen from a pool of more than 100,000 entries, all of which were submitted by people who had their sights set on winning a new Grand Cherokee. Now that the name is revealed, it's time to talk about the trim level itself. In a word: black.

First up, the Grand Cherokee...

When the all-new 2013 Dodge Dart premiered at the North American International Auto Show in January, executives said we'd see it in our showroom on April 1. And, boy, were we excited. Except, it seems that Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne is showing his superstitious side, as he's recently said that the launch might be postponed to a less-auspicious date.

It will likely still arrive in April, but we're not very excited about...

The Ford Focus Electric will be here soon, and if you aren't already excited for its arrival, we'd like to give you another reason to love it. And that is, the EPA has officially confirmed the rumors about the Focus Electric that said it would top 100 MPGe. More specifically, the new EV from Ford boasts a nearly-unmatched 105 MPGe.  And, it's the first five passenger vehicle to surpass the three digit...

There's a yellow De Tomaso Pantera out there with a bullet hole through the steering wheel. You know who put that bullet hole there? None other than The King himself, Elvis Presley. As it turns out, it wouldn't start one day, and in his frustration, he shot the steering wheel. We know that cars that come with cool stories like that one are priceless, but this car in particular has been said to...

Just when you thought Dodge couldn't possibly add any more fun points to the 2012 Dodge Charger, they showed up at the 2012 North American International Auto Show with the Dodge Charger Redline, a Mopar-enhanced supercar that boasts a whopping 590-horsepower.

That's right, this year in Detroit, Dodge pulled out all the stops. While they've already managed to turn the muscle-car inspired Charger into a family sedan, Dodge cranks up the power...

With the arrival of the 2012 Chrysler 200, the automaker lives up to their hometown moniker. That's right, as the automaker says, this sedan embodies "the power of old Detroit...the efficiency of new Detroit."¹. As such, Gillie Hyde Auto Group thinks it would be difficult for Chrysler to make the Chrysler 200 even better than it already. Not that that particular fact matters, since Chrysler asked their parts division, Mopar, to create...

The Dodge Viper took a bit of a rest last year while engineers toiled away at redesigning and perfecting the car for the 2013 model year. That's right, premiering at the New York Auto Show in April: The 2013 Dodge Viper. And, get ready. It sure is something to behold.

Does Gillie Hyde Auto Group think it was worth the wait? Absolutely. Have we enjoyed the wait? Absolutely not. But, we're super-psyched to...

If you've been a longstanding fan of the Dodge Caravan, you might be disappointed to hear that Chrysler plans to replace the popular minivan with a crossover starting next year. If you're a minivan purest, don't worry, the automaker will continue to make the Chrysler Town & Country indefinitely.

The word is, Chrysler's next full-size minivan will arrive in 2014, and at that time, the company will also release the new crossover…
