Rock Climbing Jeep Style | Moab Easter Jeep Safari

Rock Climbing Jeep Style | Moab Easter Jeep Safari

It’s funny how perception can change. Since 2008, I have lived on 25 acres of land reached by an uneven road featuring numerous potholes, protruding rocks and a mixture of dirt and gravel. I thought that was off-roading – until last week, that is. Last month, the Jeep brand invited me to experience the 47th [...]

Land Rover Sells Out Of 2013 Range Rover

Land Rover Sells Out Of 2013 Range Rover

As most of us know, sport utility vehicles were all the rage in the 1990s and early 2000s. You know, back when the economy was roaring and gas was cheap. The HUMMER was the best example of this excess with the H2. It was a trend that fast wore out. Where is it now? Oh [...]

Bentley SUV Inches Forward

Bentley SUV Inches Forward

I’m pretty sure that the Bentley EXP 9 F SUV does bad things (real sophisticated analysis there, I know) for the Bentley brand every time it pops up on a website somewhere. That’s because most people hate it. It’s inevitable though that pictures of it are going to circulate every time we hear a bit [...]

CUE Update Coming For Cadillac ATS & XTS – But When?

Ah, software updates. You’ve got to love the big ones that can take hours and require us to restart our computers (or phones, whatever the case may be). I’ve got one waiting on my phone right now for me – oh joy. We’ve all been used to software updates for our computers and phones. Now [...]

Next-Generation Bentley Flying Spur Due For Geneva

As planned obsolescence isn’t a part of Bentley’s vocabulary, new models don’t come around very often. As such, when a new one is on the way it’s a pretty big deal (unless you’re the EXP 9 F, that is…). Most of the discussion around new Bentley models has centered around the possibility of an SUV. [...]

Spyker Bringing Key New Model To Geneva

When Saab finally went bankrupt, many thought Chief Executive Officer Victor Mueller would disappear off the automotive scene, at least for a while. Mueller had tried tirelessly for months and months to secure Saab’s future, negotiating deals with different companies that he hoped would save the company. Mueller is clearly a car guy with negotiating [...]

Safe Volvo Has Buyers With Highest Credit Scores

It has been said that you can tell a lot about someone by what kind of car they drive. While there are a lot of exceptions to that, it is true that you can often get an idea of someone’s priorities or sometimes personality characteristics. The credit rating agency Experian conducted a study to find [...]

In 2012, General Motors Sold Over 1 Million Vehicles With 30+ MPG

It’s the beginning of the year, and you know what that means; manufacturer sales data for 2012 is coming in. In the past General Motors hasn’t been the company you think about when it comes to fuel-efficiency. In fact (save for the Chevrolet Volt) both Toyota and Ford have grabbed the spotlight when it comes [...]
