    The EV market went from non-existent to super-hot but has now entered a cooling period. Honda is a rather latecomer to the market, but with the assistance of Chevrolet, it is now ready to go with the new Honda Prologue. Based heavily on the Blazer EV, the battery-electric mid-size crossover is new for the 2024…

    Note: After fifteen years of writing car reviews, I have decided to venture into video. I am starting off slowly and rather amateurishly, so please bear with me. These videos can only get better (maybe). These will be one-take videos. I’ll only discuss the vehicle, and you won’t even have to look at me. Additionally,…

    Northern Tool + Equipment makes a whole lot of commercial-grade equipment. Monster Jam makes people cheer when their big trucks do crazy things. When the two join forces, the goal is to make people smile, apparently. Their latest target? The students at Bryan High School’s Career and Technical Education program. Because all three are working…

    Hoon-In-Chief Jeff Glucker has had enough of hearing himself talk. But we’ve promised a stay of execution instead of an immediate Viking funeral, so Herr Glucker is passing the Hooniverse Podcast baton to Dan Roth and Ross Ballot (that’s me!). We’re chaperoning the show into a new era, aka Hooniverse.2, “Now with water-cooled heads,” Dan…

    The truth is that minivans are really pretty great, regardless of what the dads at the local sporting events try to convince you is cool. We’re big fans of the Kia Carnival and in general follow a function-over-form mentality for our own personal vehicles, and there’s no better tool for the family-hauling job than a…

    The event is called Destination Outdoor. It’s a local gathering of Toyota-loving folks who enjoy spending time outdoors with built-up rigs. Toyota is a sponsor of the event, so before it all kicked off the automaker invited a handful of folks to meet up outside Denver and caravan our way to the event. Our vehicle…

    It’s not a great question prompt, but it’s one that popped into my head this morning. That’s because a fire flared up a few miles from my house. Luckily for the surrounding community, it essentially went straight back up into the canyon. So no structures are currently at risk, as far as I’m aware, except…

    Mercedes revamped the long-running SL roadster for 2022, with the R232 SL-Class perhaps embodying the model’s biggest transformation in the nameplate’s seven generations. Now sold under the Mercedes-AMG brand heading rather than its traditional Mercedes-Benz lineage, with this comes a deviation in the core of its existence in that the SL was co-developed to live…

    The world of tires is overflowing with options and, if you’re like us, finding one that is just right for your vehicle can turn into what seems like a full-time, obsessive job. As you’d expect, the right tire bears a nuanced balance of quality, price, and performance, and the countless options make it all the…

    This is my third foray into reviewing Volkswagen’s ID.4 Pro S. I took Hooniverse through the ins and outs of the 2021 and the 2023. During the first round in 2021, I was frustrated with the user interface, the relatively dull exterior style, and the unimpressive performance. On round two in 2023, I noted that…

    It’s Wednesday, which means I opened up a tab in my browser, went to Craigslist, and simply typed in “wagon.” The results today are rather wonderful thanks to this truly glorious 1973 Dodge Monaco. I’ve never seen one in this color combo with the excellent stripe work, and I’m absolutely in love. It helps that…

    I was looking at used cars the other day. Well, actually, it was this morning… and the day before. And the day before that. Basically, every day. What I’ve found, and I’m sure you’ve all noticed as well, is that the idea of a $5,000 project car is much harder to come by. I picked…

    One of the latest design trends is “retro-futurism,” and no one has embraced it more than Hyundai. While the trend is technically defined more along the lines of depictions of how people saw the future back in the day, it’s also been used to describe designs with a science/geeky slant. Wait, maybe this is just…

    I’ll admit it: there have been times I really didn’t get the appeal of the Toyota Tacoma. For some time, it was one of the only midsize trucks available. However, it got bigger and bigger to the point that I couldn’t see the rationale of buying one over the plethora of full-size trucks on the…
