Honest car reviews both big and small
Expedition a BIG winner in the SUV wars … Big is big when it comes to large SUVs, but some drive better, are easier to handle and Ford has improved both in its new Expedition, a huge craft to be sure. But for 2018 the Expedition is all-new from the wheels up, and it shows.... Continue Reading →
Acura creates racy crossover with RDX … Whatever you think of crossovers, I’m here to tell you that some are sporty, some are fun to drive, and a few combine that with luxury befitting a fine sedan. Acura’s RDX AWD A-Spec, newly restyled for 2019, is one of the above. It’s a rip-roaring good time... Continue Reading →
Volvo XC40 a fun, sporty crossover … Volvo, the Chinese-owned luxury car maker that builds its cars in Sweden and Belgium, has been on a roll now for a couple years. Its lineup of crossovers, like its wagons of the past, are well designed, utilitarian, but with enough luxury to easily take on its luxury... Continue Reading →
Mazda6 Signature adds turbo power to the mix ... Mazda has long had one of the better looking midsize sedans, its Mazda6.

Ixo’s Ford GT a beautiful bargain … I still don’t know how Ford did it, come up with a new GT that’s as beautiful as the old one, but with a modern twist. I also don’t know how Ixo continues to offer such beautiful 1/43 die-cast models at such reasonable prices. The reviewed Ford GT... Continue Reading →
Hyundai's new Kona a cute value-minded crossover ... Kona’s cute, it’s inexpensive, it drives great, and like all vehicles that folks want to buy these days, it’s a crossover. Frankly, it had me at cute, but the rest is like frosting on a gluten-free homemade cupcake. I don’t want to dwell on price for fear... Continue Reading →
Corolla Hatch a practical sharp looker … Back in the day I owned a Toyota Corolla, but then again, nearly everyone did at the time. The Corolla was to the 1980s what the Chevy Nova was to the 1970s, namely an inexpensive reliable car. While much has changed in the ensuing 35 or so years,... Continue Reading →
Infiniti QX80, when only BIG will do … Big counts for something sometimes and if you need to haul seven people, a big SUV is likely what you need, or a minivan. My son’s family was visiting so the Infiniti QX80 was a good bet for hauling us around southeast Wisconsin when grandparents, kids and... Continue Reading →
Subaru's new Ascent nails 7-passenger crossover market … Subaru took a couple years off from the minivan/larger crossover market in an effort to get it right. The strategy worked, its new 2019 Ascent nails it. Rarely does a vehicle deliver fully what it promises and at a reasonable price. Ascent offers room for seven or... Continue Reading →
VW's new Jetta grows a tad, remains fun … With cars like its compact Jetta and crossovers like its compact Tiguan, Volkswagen seems poised to rebound from a dreadful period brought on by its corporate diesel emission scandal, not poorly designed vehicles.
