Skidding tires, smoking engines, and fearless drivers. Movie car chases are the perfect adrenaline fix. Whether it’s Steve McQueen in “Bullitt” or Tom Cruise in the “Mission: Impossible” franchise, moviegoers can’t seem to get enough of watching cars get reduced to rubble.

We asked our facebook followers to name their favorite blockbuster chase scenes. Here are their top 14.

Last year, Matthew Mcconaughey became the face of the Lincoln Motor Company (Ford’s luxury automobile brand) in a series of brooding, introspective commercials.

The commercials were intended to be serious, but some people felt Mcconaughey was just a bit too serious. Both Ellen DeGeneres and Jim Carrey thought he should lighten up, so they did parodies of the commercials.

The first commercial features Mcconaughey’s laid-back musings about a bull standing in the middle of the road. The wind sweeping across the road and the reflective music are supposed to give it an epic, other-worldly feel.

We asked our Facebook followers for the best (or worst) ways they’ve tried to get out of traffic tickets. Here are our favorite ten excuses.

After your car has been sitting in the sun for a few hours, the interior skyrockets to boiling hot temperatures. So what’s the best way to cool it off?

Some people swear that air conditioners use up gas and make your car less efficient. Others claim that driving with your windows down adds friction and slows you down. So, which is more efficient - windows down or AC on?

Windows down or AC - which is more efficient?

Answer: it depends. Your AC does use gas, but this is more of an issue in older cars. The AC units in new cars are way more efficient than old models, so they have less impact on your fuel usage.

Of course, having your windows down uses no fuel at all. But the friction caused by open windows is no myth. As you reach higher speeds, the added drag can cancel out the fuel-saving benefits of switching the AC off.

Tom Cruise is back to do more crazy stunts in the explosive Mission: Impossible 5 - Rogue Nation. As super spy Ethan Hunt, he’ll be hanging from wires, donning masks, and outsmarting the bad guys - and he’ll also be driving a swanky car.

BMW has become famous for supplying cool cars to the Mission Impossible franchise. In the fourth movie, Ghost Protocol, they showed off the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics electric concept car, which was every bit as cool as it sounds. It was chic, futuristic, and packed to the brim with mind-blowing technology - everything that a spy-flick car should be.
