Honest car reviews both big and small
Weird but way cool The 90s was a great time for Chrysler as they cranked out hit after hit. There was the PT Cruiser. Don't laugh because it sold over a million copies in ten years and might have been made longer if Chrysler hadn't kind of forgotten about it. They had a total beast... Continue Reading →
Not your grandpa's Buick Growing up I remember my uncle having a Buick and that's pretty much the image the brand had with an aging demographic preferring a cushy ride more than performance. With not a lot of foot traffic in the dealerships they needed something much like American Motors that I've written about in... Continue Reading →
Cuter than a soft, fuzzy puppy. I'm usually a guy who likes the cars that have the big rip-roaring V8 engines but this week's spot, the Nissan Figaro, is just as cool but in a different way. Our daughter Meg spotted this Figaro at a show near Madison, WI. Note Vette right next to it.... Continue Reading →
East Germany's answer to West Germany's "People's Car" .... Growing up in the 1960s and '70s I remember the Cold War, and how the communists used East Berlin as a showcase for the success of socialism. Automobiles were a big part of that but ultimately, they were just terrible cars like this week's car spot,... Continue Reading →
The International House of Ford ... Growing up in the 1970s and having a dad who worked in the auto industry, American Motors, I can tell you it was not a fun time. If this sounds familiar, let me know as it was pretty much all about politics. Because the United States supported Israel in... Continue Reading →
World's first flying sports car As I write this post I'm suffering from post-AirVenture depression. My first love is all things aviation being a pilot. For as long as I can remember I've attended the Experimental Aircraft Association's (EAA) AirVenture in Oshkosh. For one week at the end of July, the airport becomes the world's... Continue Reading →
Favoring style and performance over tradition ... Do you have a pile of money? I mean a really big pile just burning a hole in your pocket and looking to make a statement? The 22 Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge might be your ticket. Mark and I are members of the Midwest Automotive Media Association (MAMA)... Continue Reading →
The car made famous by Roger Moore Growing up in the 1960s I loved the spy TV shows. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. aired on NBC along with a funny one, Get Smart, while The Avengers aired on ABC (whoa, Emma Peel in those skintight outfits), Mission Impossible on CBS. Later on ABC and then NBC... Continue Reading →
Mona Lisa of Modena! Collecting cars is all about friendships and this week's spot is a great example of that. I've mentioned in the past my friendship with Darrel Burnett who was my boss while in TV and now runs the Automobile Gallery of Green Bay. We had no idea that we were both such... Continue Reading →
A rare concept car that still lives today Mark and I love going to the Chicago Auto Show each year. We get to see what's new but one of the coolest exhibits are the concept cars. Not so much by the current manufacturers but tucked away in a corner of the North Hall is the... Continue Reading →
