'''Wikicars''' is impassioned by the role of the {{tag|autos|automobile}} as an enabler of personal freedom, exploration, and growth.  Inspired by [[Wikipedia]], Wikicars is propelled by car enthusiasts with a distinct North American flavour and opinion, working collaboratively to create a comprehensive source of information about all things {{tag|automotive}}.  By all things automotive, we mean information about topics such as:

Well...you get the idea.  The word "cars" and "car culture" are merely shorthand for the wonderful ability to venture out on one's own into the world.  We want Wikicars to cover it all: if it primarily moves on wheels, has a means of propulsion, and the ability to transport you or your friends and family-- bring it on.
