2024 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus: Review
/
/
comments
First of all, Happy Holidays Hoons! I hope the season has been good to you so far. I feel like Santa Claus would look good in Soul Red Crystal Metallic, so it was with that in mind that I got started with this latest review. I last reviewed the Mazda CX-50 in June of 2022…

2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD AT4X AEV Quick Review: Big, bad, overkill
/
/
comments
GM seems to be all-in on off-roader pickups these days. Its Colorado ZR2 trim spilled over to the Silverado ZR2, then to the 2500HD models, and over to GMC’s Canyon and Sierra trucks. But it’s getting to be absolute overkill: GM’s flagship off-road-focused pickup truck, the 2024 Sierra 2500HD AT4X AEV, has a hood that…

2023 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Quick Review: decent truck, mediocre tow rig
/
/
comments
The new generation of Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon debuted to much applause, if not for being a solid midsize pickup in of itself than for being a huge step forward from the outgoing generation which had been on sale in North America since the 2015 model year. As a fan of the class in…

2024 Lexus TX 350: Review
/
/
comments
The three-row SUV segment has been known to absolutely print money for automakers, which makes it a bit of a surprise that Toyota hasn’t built more under the Lexus badge. Sure, the big truck-like options like the GX and LX have had that option for some time, and they did cram a 3rd row into…

What’s the Difference Between the Lexus TX and the Toyota Grand Highlander?
/
/
comments
Recently, Toyota introduced two new vehicles – the Grand Highlander and the Lexus TX. The Grand Highlander is a slightly longer version of the venerable Highlander, the vehicle that so many have settled for because the significantly more functional Sienna minivan doesn’t match their desirable lifestyles. The Lexus TX is a more opulent version of…

2023 Chevrolet Suburban High Country 3.0L Duramax Review: A sublime family road tripper
/
/
comments
The Chevrolet Suburban is a staple of the American road trip. Usually seen packed to the gills with both people and luggage, Chevy’s full-size, long wheelbase SUV is a go-to for families looking to go places or even just carry their kids. The brand and model have come a long way, and the High Country…

Acura Integra Type S – The Enthusiast’s Sedan
/
/
comments
The Acura Integra Type S is a 320-hp sports sedan that’s built for daily-duty greatness. It’s a blast on a curvy road, but also comfortable and enjoyable for the drive to and from work. It’s a great dual-natured machine. [Disclaimer: Acura tossed me the keys to the Type S and included a tank of fuel.]

2023 Honda Civic Type R: Review
/
/
comments
Loving a car during a weeklong press loan is one thing, loving it once it’s in your driveway is another. I absolutely adored the new Civic Si when I first drove it last summer. However, six months later I bought one and it just didn’t align to my newly changed lifestyle, so I sold it…

2023 Land Rover Trek – We did it again…

comments
Land Rover invited us back for another round of its Trek competition. This marks our 3rd time competing in the media wave, and it marks our 3rd victory. This time, the competition unfolds in a surprisingly excellent off-road space outside of Austin, Texas. Land Rover has built up a fleet of Defender 130s for use.…

The 2024 Cadillac CT5-V is no Blackwing but it’s still pretty dang good
/
/
comments
Many of us would go so far as to call Cadillac’s Blackwing cars heroic, iconic, and legendary sports sedans. GM’s luxury brand might not lead the realm in the world’s fancy department but it sure knows how to build chassis and a saloon that drives like a much smaller car. But not everyone wants or…
