2019 Chevolet Equinox AWD Premier

Chevy's Equinox easy as a Moon Pie to like … When you’re driving to the home of the Moon Pie, you need something that boasts American pride and craftsmanship, and that’s what I got from Chevy for a rare trip to Chattanooga, Tenn.

Colorado Bison a happy medium mid-size pickup ...

This bright red (Red Hot) Colorado was the top-level... Continue Reading →

2019 Ford Ranger XLT Supercrew 4×4

New Ranger is more refined with improved handling ... Back in the day, about a decade ago, Ford’s Ranger was a compact pickup made primarily, or so it seemed, for teenage boys to range around small towns and suburban areas, with their teenage girlfriends riding shotgun. Rangers were small, inexpensive wheels, often the first truck... Continue Reading →

2020 Jeep Gladiator Overland 4×4

Gladiator: Finally, a midsize pickup with style ... You’ll either want a Jeep Gladiator pickup, or you won’t. What I mean is the long-awaited Jeep pickup is an image vehicle as much as it is a pickup. That’s not to say it doesn’t function well as a pickup, it certainly does. But it looks like...

2019 Ford F-150 Lariat SuperCrew 4×4

Turbo diesel suits the F-150 SuperCrew ... There’s no denying that pickups are the dandies of our nation’s auto buyers. Ford’s F-150 has been the top selling vehicle in the U.S. for 37 years now and Chevy’s Silverado pickup has been No. 2 most of that time. Chrysler’s Ram pickup is No. 3 now, just...

2019 RAM 3500 Laramie Longhorn Crew Cab 4×4 Long Box

Heavy-duty RAM a cowboy Cadillac beyond words ... No words, no matter how many, can adequately describe RAM’s heavy-duty 3500 pickup, but I’ll try. Check in the dictionary under Cowboy Cadillac and I’m pretty sure you’ll see an image of my fancy metallic walnut brown test truck. This was the RAM 3500 Laramie Longhorn Crew... Continue Reading →

MAMA 2019 Spring Rally: Car heaven for auto journalist

So many cars to choose from Mark and I love this event. We get to hang out at our favorite race track, Road America, that's practically in our backyards. For two days, May 22-23, we attended The Midwest Automotive Media Association (MAMA) annual Spring Rally. We joined about 100 other automotive journalists from all over... Continue Reading →

2019 Honda Pilot AWD Elite

Well-rounded Honda Pilot a stellar SUV ... Not that long ago Honda’s Pilot was a boxy ol’ thing that frankly was as stylish as a shoe box jacked up on 20-inch wheels. But like its chief rival, Toyota, Honda seems to have suddenly gotten the word that blah styling doesn’t help you stand out in... Continue Reading →
