Honest car reviews both big and small
Lexus RX 450h perfect for a comfy, long haul ... Mostly my test drives are a couple hundred miles around Southeast Wisconsin over the course of a week, but this week was a rare exception when I drove the Lexus RX 450h to Omaha and back, more than 1,100 miles.

Alfa Romeo's Giulia makes us giggle it's so much fun ... Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Rare is the sports sedan, or any car, that makes you giggle when you tromp on its gas pedal.
