Honest car reviews both big and small
Another swing for the fence for that plucky little car company It happens only once every three years, the Kenosha Homecoming Car Show, and this year I had a chance to take it in. It was great seeing all kinds of American Motors cars built just down the road. The company also had a large... Continue Reading →
Second rarest of all AMC cars One of the reasons I love AMC is that, as the underdog of American car manufacturers, and with limited funds for development and marketing, it consistently came up with a conversation-starter in the automotive arena. Case in point is this week’s spot, a 71 AMC Hornet SC 360, which... Continue Reading →

American Motors hit a home run ... While the passenger car side of AMC wasn't exactly putting the world on fire in the mid-eighties with its Renault Alliance/Encore and Eagles, the Jeep side was humming and the purchase of it in 1970 was paying off dividends. Its modernization of the full-size Jeep (SJ) Cherokee and... Continue Reading →
A small pickup before they were cool ... I wasn't sure if it was on my dime or Jeep's when I received an email almost five years ago this past week inviting me to a media event in California introducing the new Jeep Gladiator (JT). I was just giddy to find out they were paying... Continue Reading →
