From autonews.com, there are rumors of a RWD large sedan roaming about in detroit near the GM proving grounds, so for all those Cadillac fans out there, looks like y'all get a fun new toy. Check it out here. Now I was hatin' on Toyota for all the recalls, but now it looks like the Nissan Frontier gets another recall too. I'm pretty partial to Nissan, but you gotta wonder why the circuit breakers don't work. Here's the article. Tesla is up and coming in America apparently as their stocks reach record highs, and after Honda's Acura stopped selling so well, they figured they'd spend some more money on it. Look at that and more on their home page. Can't look at everything unless you're subscribed though, so that's a bummer.
From Jalopnik, Ford is dropping Microsoft for Blackberry in their cars, the 2015 Citroën C1 is hideous, F1 cars are getting hacked these days, and Jaguar decided to put out a really fun wagon. That and more right here.
From autoblog (far less important than thrown rods blog...), Nissan, Mazda, Bentley, everyone else getting ready for Geneva, VW trying to save the plant in TN, and a new worlds fastest car (270.49 mph). As always, I can't cover it all, so check out the rest.
I'd say that could keep y'all busy for a while. If you have any other auto sites you'd like to see on here, leave us a little comment or shoot us an email to thrownrodsblog@gmail.com. Griffin would like to hear from you, as he is pretty consistently occupied with My Little Pony, and needs a break from that I'm sure.

EDIT: I'm sorry y'all, I really tried to keep it to actual pertinent news, but I couldn't just not include this. Russia made a bear-proof, six-wheel, floating truck.... yep. Find it at the NBC link, but let's be real. It's from Jalopnik. Of course it is. How could that article not be Jalopnik? Enjoy your day everyone.
