The New Toyota Land Cruiser is Better than I Thought It Would Be
/
/
comments
Land Cruiser lovers lamented when Toyota made the decision to exclude the 300-Series from the North American market. Sure, you could get a version of it if you opted to shuffle into a Lexus dealer. But that’s not the truck true Land Cruiser fans were hoping to find. But the lack of a Land Cruiser…

Audi RS6 Avant GT is a Longroof Love-Letter to the 90 IMSA GTO
/
/
comments
Audi kicked a lot of butt with its 90 Quattro GTO race car. This was an inline-5-cylinder all-wheel-drive monster machine that Hans Stuck drove the wheels off and shocked V8-powered beasts on plenty of road courses. That car should’ve easily secured a championship in 1989, but a few missed races and early teething issues prevented…

The Corvette Z06 is Actually a Supercar, and That’s Okay!
/
/
comments
I can feel folks getting ready to hit the keys to type my messages, telling me I’m wrong. But I don’t care because I’m here to tell you that the C8 Corvette Z06 is a supercar. It has evolved. It is more than. The idea that this is “just” a sports car is now incorrect.…

Mercedes-Benz eSprinter – I LOVE Electric Work Vans!
/
/
comments
The Mercedes-Benz eSprinter is an all-electric version of the Mercedes workhorse commercial van. How does it compare to competitors from Ford, Ram, and Rivian? Let’s take a look! I’ve now driven the Ford E-Transit and the Benz eSprinter. I need to add the Ram Promaster EV and Rivian RCV to my list to see which…

2024 Polaris Slingshot SL – Does Less Wheels Equal More Fun?
/
/
comments
The Polaris Slingshot is an autocycle. It’s not quite a car and not quite a motorcycle. This three-wheeled vehicle lives in a gray area. It also lives in a segment hampered by its very design. The three-wheeler will never be as good as a four-wheel machine, and it’s not as wildly thrilling as two-wheeled vehicles.…

The BMW i7 M70 …is the nicest car I’ve ever driven
/
/
comments
I’m shocked, too, but here we go; this BMW i7 M70 is the nicest car I’ve driven. From its power delivery and ride quality to the seat comfort and overall enjoyability of the machine, it’s just a fantastic vehicle. Just don’t look at the front of it…

The Kia EV9 is Expensive but also Excellent
/
/
comments
As tested, this particular Kia EV9 costs $74,000. That’s an electrified buoyed-up boatload of cash. And this one is still one below the top-spec GT-Line model. Plus, there’s talk of a bonkers high-performance EV9 GT still to come. That said, the EV9 delivers excellent range, great power, fun styling, a lovely interior, and tremendous charging…

2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N: Street and Track, Ready
/
/
comments
If you were thinking of getting a daily driver that you could also take to the track, I’m sure for most of you reading this, an EV isn’t part of that discussion. Hyundai wants to change the conversation, though, and thus the automaker has cooked up an EV for the enthusiast. At least, that’s the…

Land Rover Defender 130 Outbound – Surprisingly Great Off-Road
/
/
comments
The Defender 130 was initially the JLR truck that piqued my interest the least. That’s because the 110 is the perfect size for me personally. I don’t need or want a three-row SUV, but more cargo room is a nice thing to have. So, the arrival of the D130 in Outbound spec has caught my…

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe First Drive (psst… get the XRT!)
/
/
comments
The 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe arrives with seriously fresh style, good power from the gas engine, and an almost shockingly good XRT off-road-esque model. In fact, taking a look at the full lineup; the XRT is the one to buy! [Disclaimer: Hyundai flew me to TN, put me up in a hotel, and fed me.]
