*The Evening Rush is your daily roundup of auto, gear, and lifestyle news, all in one place. Less time searching, more time driving. Motor on.*

**Automotive**

The [2016 Honda Ridgeline](<https://www.autoblog.com/2015/12/18/honda-ridgeline-detroit-teaser-official/>) is set to debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Although details are thin on the ground, we are expecting some drastic changes given the increased popularity of the mid-size pickup market.

Pricing for the [2017 Acura NSX](<https://www.slashgear.com/2017-acura-nsx-price-confirmed-18419154/>) has been announced, and Acura is hitting us where it hurts with a $156,000 starting price tag. Preorders will start in early 2016.

Audi is planning to show its much-anticipated, hydrogen-powered Q6 at the Detroit Auto Show. Reports suggest the [H-Tron Q6](<https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/motor-shows-detroit-motor-show/audi-q6-h-tron-concept-set-detroit-show-debut>) will look a lot like the E-tron shown earlier this year in Frankfurt, but it will lean on hydrogen power instead of battery.

**Gear**

If you haven’t noticed, drones have been pretty hot this year. Rather than buying a $500 example, pick up this $35 example and let the affordable times roll. Capable of rapid assent, flipping and four-way directional changes, the [Snowflake Stealth Drone](<https://shop.gearmoose.com/sales/pre-order-the-snowflake-micro-drone>) might be all the drone you need.

Protein shakes can be pretty gross when you swallow a clump of unmixed powder. Never let this nightmare happen to you. Purchase the [Umoro One](<https://www.umoro.com/>) and let the compartmentalized system rapidly mix your shake with the push of a button for the perfect consistency every time.

**Lifestyle**

Edgevale may have just made the ultimate jacket shirt, capable of keeping you warm in almost any condition. With a thick wool exterior and soft fleece lining, the [North East Jacket Shirt](<https://huckberry.com/store/edgevale/category/p/20978-north-coast-shirt-jacket>) will keep you content on the mountain and around the fire pit.

In need of a last-minute Christmas gift? Why not give a gift that keeps on giving: a membership to the [Craft Beer Club](<https://craftbeerclub.com/>). For $40 you can send 12 craft beers a month to someone you care about (who may or may not be yourself).
