2019 Mazda CX-5 Signature AWD

Mazda CX-5 delivers looks, power and sports sedan handling … Mazda may have dumped its zoom-zoom tagline, but the Japanese car maker hasn’t eliminated it from its vehicles, witness the CX-5 compact crossover.

2019 Volvo V60 T6 AWD Inscription

 Volvo V60 brings style to station wagons ... Something strange happened as I was testing Volvo’s new wagon, the V60. People waved and gave me an approving thumbs up.

Die-cast: Replicarz 1952 Indy 500 Winner, Agajanian Special

New 1/43 Indy Winner a colorful replica of Ruttman's racer … If you’re an Indy 500 nut like me you’ll recognize Troy Ruttman’s name, otherwise he might be a mystery, or vague memory to you.

2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro 4WD Double Cab

Tacoma TRD Pro the ultimate Bro Truck ... A 20-something friend assures me Toyota’s Tacoma TRD Pro is a Bro Truck, or what us older guys would have called a boy toy.

Practical RAV4 muscles up its exterior ... There’s no denying that Toyota has done well with its RAV4, one of the first small SUV/crossovers on the market, and it continues to be among the most popular in its segment.
