If GM’s board had simply hired away the entire management team at Hyundai back in ’08 – and fired everyone at the Renaissance Center in Detroit – it would saved taxpayers a lot of money. Those guys – the Hyundai guys – know what they’re doing. One brilliant design after the next. It’s almost...

Function matters – but form does, too. Especially when you’ve got a choice. Full-size minivans, for instance, sold in big numbers . . . until less stodgy-looking (and driving) alternatives – same-size (or almost same-size) crossovers – came on scene. Today, some of the biggest names in the business don’t even sell a traditional...

I’ve ranted in the past about being rope-a-dope’d into a state of exhausted fury by annoying automotive technology. Well, I’ve got fodder for a fresh rant. This past week, I had a new BMW X to test drive (you can read the review here). Overall, not a bad car. But there are some things...

An outstanding video showcasing the small minded fear present in the “gun control” debate. It is sad to say that people like Bray Cary are a dime a dozen. Pay close attention around the 5:30 mark when this idiot disregards the fact the Supreme Court has ruled multiple times that LEO’s are there to...

Almost ten years ago, back in ’03, I drove one of the first Nissan Muranos. It was Dennis Kucinic to Barack Obama – or Ron Paul to Mitt Romney. Something different for once. At that time, SUVs were … SUVs: Pick-up trucks modified with enclosed beds and seats for passengers. They had room and...

On a good used car. Because the new ones – the ones coming online now and on deck for next year (and the years after that) – are going to be budget-busters as well as ball-busters. We are approaching the event horizon of reasonableness when it comes to car design. Because of the unreasonableness...

This new CX-5 ought to do pretty well. Though it’s technically a compact crossover SUV – it looks (and actually is) almost mid-sized. So it’s substantial and roomy. That’s one. Two, it starts at just over $20k – vs. over $22k for its most obvious rivals, the popular Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford...
