Honest car reviews both big and small
Jeep Trackhawk boasts 707 hp, too ... There is now a 707 horsepower Jeep. You read that right, and the first question most folks ask is, Why would Jeep do this? The answer: Because they can. There’s no reasonable or logical reason, except that Fiat/Chrysler, which is the overindulgent parent of Jeep and Dodge, has... Continue Reading →
BMW X3 has the street cred, but what about style? ... This week’s drive begs the question of style and performance vs. reputation and performance. How so? The tested BMW X3 compact SUV is a direct competitor of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio I tested a week prior. Darn near the same dimensions, the Alfa is... Continue Reading →
Beautiful Stelvio puts in the crossover fast lane ... Even if Italian beauty were only skin deep, maybe that would be enough when it comes to cars and crossovers. The new Stelvio, Alfa Romeo’s first crossover or SUV, whichever you wish to label it, is a beauty. Its face is unique in today’s bland auto... Continue Reading →
1960s Valiant Acapulco a simple car, no matter the year ... We all have our first car stories, but in 1963 my dad brought home our first new car, at least in my lifetime.

New Chevy Equinox shrinks, but that's a good thing ... Chevrolet updated the Equinox for 2018 by doing something carmakers rarely do these days, shrinking it.

Buick's 1956 concept car really did have futuristic features ... GM’s concept cars of the 1950s were showcased in traveling shows called Motorama and actually looked futuristic and in some cases included features that would show up on future cars, sometimes way into the future. One was the bright red over white Buick Centurion XP-301... Continue Reading →
Outlier Durango delivers function and style ... Dodge’s Durango is an outlier of sorts. It features function and style while many of the better selling large SUVs maintain a staid look, favoring square exteriors and overly manly interiors with oversized gauges, knobs and air vents. Durango though likes to spiff itself up, like it’s saying... Continue Reading →
