Honest car reviews both big and small
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 →
VW goes big into the SUV market with Atlas ... There are no awards for being late to the party, but VW is hoping sales are its consolation prize for finally creating a large SUV, the Atlas. It won’t win any styling awards (can you say big and boxy?), but it’s certainly stout and a... Continue Reading →
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. Equinox is nearly 5 inches shorter than its predecessor, but it feels lighter and livelier to drive, another rare accomplishment. Usually carmakers add inches and weight to increase their...

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 →

Highlander Hybrid excels at moving people, things ... A road trip to Louisville with a couple buddies, and plenty of cargo, proved Toyota’s Highlander Hybrid to be a perfect transport choice. Ours was a medium metallic brown, what Toyota calls Toasted Walnut Pearl. Probably should have been pecan since we were headed to the South. But,... Continue Reading →
New Volvo XC90 packs in a lot ... Honestly, the new Volvo XC90 is a bit overwhelming. It’s a big luxury crossover or ute, whichever you prefer. It looks buttoned-down collar sharp and has nearly every conceivable electronic doodad, safety device and feature one could expect. But there’s just so much here to enjoy and... Continue Reading →
Tough Toyota 4Runner is anything but a TRD ... Let’s face it, you’d better have a pretty strong, competent vehicle if you’re going to give one of its models the TRD moniker.
