Honest car reviews both big and small
From the same company that built the first Jeep My first thought when "small cars" are mentioned is the 70s with the Japanese imports and domestics like the Pinto, Vega, and Gremlin. But way back in the 30s this country was introduced to a small car, the American Bantam similar to the one in this... Continue Reading →
A touchdown pass that came too late in the game ... This is one of those “I was there when it happened” stories. For any of you who follow me regularly, you know I'm a huge American Motors geek and that's because my dad worked there from 1963 to 1989. Those early years were booming... Continue Reading →
New Tremor trim is an off-roading hot rod ... Apparently, Ford didn’t think there were enough F-150 choices and trims, hence the new Tremor pickup. To be clear, there are dozens of F-150 choices from the base with a standard cab to crew cabs to SuperCrew cabs. There also are off-roading and on-roading choices, along... Continue Reading →
New Hornet GT Plus brings some buzz to Dodge brand ... There’s a buzz swarming around Dodge as it launches a new compact crossover and it has nothing to do with Hellcat, Hemi, or SRT, it’s about Hornet. This new small crossover is a honey (sorry) of a new entry for Dodge, known primarily of... Continue Reading →
The Jeep before they bought Jeep. Being an AMC guy, I get a fair amount of abuse but I remind those abusing me of the innovative vehicles the company came out with in response to the market.

Boxy, gray, two-tone, 3-row Pathfinder a trend setter ... Sometimes when I write my reviews I feel like a broken record (remember those?) repeating the same info over and over. Part of that is because trends develop fast in the car world and once one manufacturer does something for style, color, features, the others soon... Continue Reading →
Enjoying retirement in Florida Florida is a great place to see classic cars since the weather is great. No salt on the roads means that a car can have a very long life. Take for example this Willys Jeep I spotted on a recent trip. As best I can tell, it began life as a... Continue Reading →
Why should Jeep have all the nostalgic off-road fun? ... Jeep has been mining the retro vein of off-roading SUVs for decades, so why shouldn’t Toyota? This Y-chromosome packed market imagines itself crushing boulders and slopping through mud that’s butt deep for fun on weekends. Never mind that the family might like a comfortable ride...

2-door Rover a retro rock star in looks, off-roading ... OK, I say Land Rover and what do you picture? Boxy, utilitarian off-roader running through tall elephant grass or African Savanna grass, a photographer’s head and camera poking from the open roof. Maybe an elephant, giraffe or even a lion wandering in the background? That’s... Continue Reading →
New Bronco Sport a just-right size, mild-cost off-roader ... Ford’s new Bronco Sport is going to be a winner for the blue oval folks, but it has a major challenge ahead of it: how to avoid grow too big or too luxurious. In theory that’s what the new bigger Bronco will bring, whenever it finally... Continue Reading →
