Honest car reviews both big and small
Electric Mustang Mach-E a fine crossover, not a Mustang ... Marketing is an interesting and amusing craft and Ford’s marketers realize they really only have two ways to attract attention to their brand. First is the F-150, the longtime best-selling vehicle in the U.S., and second is Mustang, its iconic muscle car that has been... Continue Reading →
Cute new Nissan Kicks up a lot of value ... Car makers competing in the entry-level market, meaning less than $25,000, are working harder and harder to get some notice as value doesn’t sell as well as BIG anything does. We’re a nation that appreciates big, fast, and strong more than petite, nimble, and adequate,... Continue Reading →
Hybrid F-150 generates apocalypse-conquering power ... After 43 years as the best-selling vehicle in the United States I suppose nothing should surprise me about the latest Ford F-150. Ford hasn’t stayed atop this highly competitive money-making bonanza of a market for U.S. carmakers because it coasts. Nope, it keeps re-inventing the envelope. For 2021 Ford... Continue Reading →
Pacifica minivan nears perfection with quiet plug-in hybrid ... Chrysler has been in the minivan business longer than anyone else and it stands to reason that after 35+ years they’re nearing perfection. It helps that Chrysler never stopped innovating and it still leads the way as the 2021 Pacifica is the only plug-in hybrid minivan... Continue Reading →
Elantra offers value with distinctive looks, spunky performance ... Surprises tend to hang out at the low end of the automotive market, where expectations may be lower because, well, prices are lower. That continues to be the case with Hyundai’s popular Elantra compact sedan, refined and upgraded for 2021. I had the SEL model, just... Continue Reading →
Plug-in hybrid XC60 a looker and performer ... A few years back I tested Volvo’s smallish mid-size crossover, the XC60, and was swept clean out of my cross-trainers. At the time, most crossovers were blah lookers and ho-hum performers, but today’s market is moving, as they always seem to, toward performance, and yet smaller carbon... Continue Reading →
Turbo adds kick to Mazda3, AWD gives it traction ... It’s possible that the current new generation of drivers will never know how much fun it is to pilot a car. Sad! Crossovers and trucks are so big, so dominant in the marketplace that it’s almost unbelievable that some automakers are still making cars. Several... Continue Reading →
Hybrid Accord feels familiar, consistently good ... Honda’s Accord hybrid is consistent, consistently good, just like the internal combustion version. I suppose if you refined most products, constantly improved them, for 40+ years you’d end up with a diamond of sorts. Honda deserves a lot of credit though. This week I slipped behind the wheel...

Luxury NX 300h modest in size, price ... Luxury comes at a price. That’s not new. On its face, the Lexus NX 300h F Sport Black Line, this week’s drive, is modest in size and price on the ever-expanding luxury scale. This edgy small crossover rides on but a 104.7-inch wheelbase, compact like the Acura... Continue Reading →
New Kia K5 a sedan with looks, performance, value ... I’m not sure what else a buyer could want from a stylish family sedan beyond what Kia’s K5 offers, unless they wanted to pay much more. I know, I know, mention value in a car review and the reader yawns and wants to click on... Continue Reading →
