Unless you have a specific make and model in mind, the decision to buy a crossover or SUV can feel overwhelming based solely on the overwhelming vastness of selection. In fact, the segment (as a whole) has been blanketed with such diligence that one might have an aneurysm trying to think of an automaker who […]
It was about a year ago when Chevy waged war against Ford’s lightweight aluminum F-150. Of course, Ford’s decision to use lightweight aluminum had the best of intentions.

There isn’t a single part of our geography where a truck isn’t being sold right now. There are brand new trucks being sold from Tallahassee to Tacoma and used truck for sale, Cincinnati to Sacramento. Traditionally, I’m all about buying used, or ‘pre-owned’ (as opposed to new) vehicles. To be clear…I’m not talking about scoring […]
The aftermarket and OEM accessory markets are massive, worth well over $200 billion dollars combined. Having grown exponentially over the last two decades, it is inarguably clear that more people are buying vehicles with plans for further enhancements down-the-line. Ranging from the purely cosmetic, to performance-enhancing, these kinds of upgrades had once been exclusive to […]
Today’s commercial vehicles come in all shapes and sizes, just as today’s businesses do. From small businesses to larger commercial fleets, the needs and demands of today’s businesses require automakers to offer a wealth of options.

Almost immediately, a new vehicle becomes the pride and joy of its ecstatic owner. This is the honeymoon period, before any part of the pristine vehicle can be sullied by the likes of a muddy boot or a spilt coffee. Flash forward a few months, weeks or days (depending on your lifestyle) and the honeymoon […]
Let’s just say it like it is. Few experiences in life can be more miserable than a negative car buying experience. And with every dissatisfied customer, it seems that the sentiment is programmed further and deeper into our cultural subconscious; further amplified by the realization that you have little or no control over it. You […]

While these vehicles are often well-designed, accurately priced and deserving of accolade they now find themselves attempting to emulate base offerings of more high-end competitors. Not unlike a fighter who struggles to make weight to […]
