Keeping a tire inflator and jump starter in your car is always a smart idea, but that can take up some space. Thankfully, Walmart has you covered with a combo deal on a battery jump stater and air compressor that's over 70% off.
The Avapow 3000A Jump Starter with Air Compressor is on sale for $70, which is a whopping 73% off the original $260 price tag. It boasts over 230 five-star ratings at Walmart and shoppers say it's 'amazing' for emergencies and 'works perfectly.' There's also a 4,000 ampere model, but the 3,000 one is the only discounted option in stock.
Even in extremely cold (and warm) temperatures, this jump starter can reboot 12V vehicles and start them up to 50 times on a single charge. And if you're not an expert on jump starting, this item will light up red to help you avoid dangerous sparks and incorrect jumper cable attachments. This two-in-one product does more than just start your car though, as it utilizes a built-in air compressor to inflate your tires with ease. In addition, four different nozzles come with your purchase, allowing you to fill up everything from basketballs to air mattresses.
'It's been a lifesaver,' one shopper raved. 'It literally takes a few seconds to pop the hood, attach the clamps on the battery, and start the engine—and I'm back on the road. No need to have to ask a stranger or anyone else for help. And as a woman, it really increases my personal safety in the fact that it is super easy to use and I have the ability to quickly get back on the road and won't be stranded.''A year ago I bought an Avapow jump starter, and I was more than pleased as it saved me a number of times at home and while camping,' one reviewer began. 'So, when my Goddaughter was off to college in Chicago, I was happy to give her an Avapow starter and tire inflator combo. She recently told me she too was impressed when after a cold spell she was able to inflate all four tires on a 30% charge.'
The Avapow 3000A Jump Starter with Air Compressor won't be over 70% off forever, so we recommend adding it to your cart ASAP this winter.

GM Files Trademark for 'Panther' Name, Sparking Speculation on Camaro Successor
GM Files Trademark for 'Panther' Name, Sparking Speculation on Camaro Successor originally appeared on Autoblog. General Motors has filed a trademark for the Panther name with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and it has again sent the rumor mills into overdrive about the revival of the Camaro sports car. Panther was the codename for the original Camaro during development, and a panther resurfaced in the Camaro Collector's Edition's logo. We don't think a Camaro revival is in the cards, so what is Panther all about then? GM has said there's simply no business case for a new Camaro, but Panther could still bring some excitement in the form of a smaller and more affordable sports car in the mold of the Toyota GR86. This would be much cheaper to develop than a real V8 pony car, but profit margins will also be slimmer, which is why Toyota shares the development costs of its sports cars with other automakers - Subaru in the case of the GR86 and BMW in the case of the GR Supra. It's not easy making a business case for sports cars these days. The Camaro went out of production in December 2023, and in its last model year on the market, Chevrolet sold only 6,000 of them, down from a high point of 70,000 in 2016. In fact, so slow was the stock to deplete that some dealers still had new Camaros left on the lot in February 2025. A trademark application doesn't mean much either, as GM has also filed a trademark for Pontiac recently, and that doesn't mean the brand is being revived. A compact sportster on a shared platform could happen, but we don't know how GM will make it work in the current climate, and the way the market is leaning toward EVs. The next Camaro was envisioned as an electric sedan back in 2021, and this could still be a possibility, though we shouldn't be surprised if it morphs into an SUV, the way Ford has done with its Mustang Mach-E and the new Capri. An electric crossover called the Panther would certainly be less controversial than the hallowed Camaro name on an SUV.

Police investigating after stolen car crashes near Evergreen Park shopping center; 1 dead
Evergreen Park police said one person died in a crash when a stolen car plowed into another vehicle near a shopping center in Evergreen Park.

CBS Skywatch was over the scene, were a dark gray car with severe front-end damage was against the median and sidewalk separating the parking lot from 95th Street. A light gray car with severe side impact and back-end damage was in the corner of the parking lot. Police said officers responded to a report of a stolen car at the Speedway Gas Station on 95th Street. When they arrived, police said a woman got out of the car and went into the gas station while the man behind the wheel sped away. Police said the driver of the stolen car crashed into another car at 95th and Campbell. The car was going fast enough that it appeared to have sent the other car spinning into the Walmart parking lot, damaging or knocking over several trees in the process. The driver of the stolen car was taken to Christ Medial Center where he was pronounced dead, police said. The driver of the other car was taken to Little Company of Mary Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, police said.

Ford's Gen 3 Coyote V8 Dissected: The Hidden Cause of Engine Failure
Ford's Gen 3 Coyote V8 Dissected: The Hidden Cause of Engine Failure originally appeared on Autoblog. Ford introduced its Coyote V8 engine as an evolution of its modular V8 platform, marking the Blue Oval's return to high-performance V8s, particularly in the Mustang GT. However, this engine isn't just exclusive to the long-running muscle car nameplate – several models also made use of this versatile engine, some even outside Ford's stables. The Ford F-150 is one such model that benefits from the Coyote V8, particularly its third iteration, introduced in 2018. This generation of the Coyote received both port and direct injection, along with PTWA liners and increased bore. It even saw the birth of the "Predator," a 760-hp supercharged variant used in the mighty Raptor R. View the 2 images of this gallery on the original article The Coyote V8 has established itself as a reliable performance-driven mill, but it's also known to be reliable, suffering only a handful of issues associated with its name. Some can reach hundreds of thousands of miles – like this example in the spotlight by YouTube engine coroner, I Do Cars. In this teardown video, we get to see a third-generation Coyote V8 from a 2018 Ford F-150, which is presumed to have reached over 100,000 miles. The engine is apparently all locked up, but further inspection revealed what killed the Coyote and what made it such a special specimen of Ford engineering. While I Do Cars was under the impression that the V8 in question was all banged up, initial inspection showed that it wasn't too bad. It rotated manually with a few internal clicks. The spark plugs appeared to be overdue, and while the intake ports were dirty, the valves were clean enough to suggest port/direct injection was helping. Further examination of the top portion showed promising revelations, with clean sections after removing the valve covers. There were no metal glitter, damaged cam lobes, or broken valvetrain parts. Interestingly, a timing chain slap was discovered as the source of the clicks, due to the unloaded oil pressure-dependent tensioners. View the 4 images of this gallery on the original article However, the cylinder heads showed heavy carbon and oil deposits, suggesting the engine was burning oil. One cylinder showed odd residue or discoloration, while the pistons came with a heavy carbon buildup in ring lands, suggesting oil control ring failure. Some oil rings were seized, others barely protruded, confirming oil consumption problems. Overall, the Coyote V8 engine teardown showed minimal and typical wear after over 100,000 miles (apart from the plastic oil pan), with I Do Cars claiming it is a candidate for a rebuild. It wasn't flawless, but its failure was only from burning too much oil, which led to catalytic converter damage – the only persistent problem associated with Coyote V8s, beyond issues with its 10-speed transmission.
