Auto: Orange County Choppers Files Bankruptcy

The company that shot to fame with their reality TV series and custom chopper bikes has hit a rough patch. Hudson Valley Merchandising, which is the name Orange County Choppers uses for their merchandise division, filed for bankruptcy last week in Poughkeepsie, NY. This comes after last year when the bank, GE Commercial Fiance, took over the gorgeous, all glass building the company calls home in upstate, NY. OCC holding, the parent company, which includes the building of the bikes, is not part of the bankruptcy, however it may just be a matter of time with the way things are going. They were a local brand that became hugely successful and popular so I am definitely pulling for these guys to make it through.

One piece of good news is incredibly the woman who gets hit in this video is still in the hospital, but lived! Watch the video after the jump and be prepared for the unexpected.

Auto:(Photo) Kanye West Sells His Lamborghini Aventador

That gift from Kim Kardashian didn’t last long. The blacked out Lamborghini Aventador that she bought for Kanye a few months ago is already sold to a new owner. Maybe he is getting ready for fatherhood and doesn’t see a need for a 2 seat supercar in the future. The car was put for sale at Calabasas Luxury Motor Cars with a price tag of $444,995. Lately Kanye has been pushing the G63 anyway, the soccer mom style truck of the celebrities. Check out the gallery after the jump to see Kanye shutting the door on the Lambo for one of the final times.


Auto: How Much Do You Spend On Gas Per Year?

You ever actually calculate how much you spend on gas per year? Do you ever do it per month? If you think about it, spending money on gas each month is just like having another bill you have to pay. I am sure I drive more than the average person, but I know on a monthly basis I spend at least $300 on gas. That alone is like a second car payment I have to make each month. Obviously the amount you spend on gas depends on how often and how far you drive, but at the end of the day, more and more of us are seeing paychecks disappear at the gas pump.
