Everyday: 2015 Hyundai Sonata

Our first wheel-time in the new Hyundai Sonata came in August, when Hyundai invited us down to Lincoln Center. If you’re an avid reader, you will remember that our initial impression was positive, but the 35 mile route didn’t give us enough time to get the whole picture. […]

First Drive: 2015 Ford F150

As Ford prepares to launch the 2015 F150, a traveling circus of tents and trucks is traversing the country to introduce dealers to the next generation of Ford’s best-selling truck. Nearly a dozen trucks are hitting 26 cities to showcase the advancements and aluminum of the F150. In […]

Just Different: 2015.5 Volvo XC60

Be yourself: your parent’s mantra and rally cry of the Volvo driver. Volvo drivers are just different – there’s no positive or negative connotation there. Uniqueness is both a gift and a curse. The 2015.5 Volvo XC60 stakes its claim on offering something a little different. It’s not […]

Advantage: 2015 Audi S8

Imagine, for a moment, that you are sitting in a very expensive armchair. You can tell it’s an expensive chair from the suppleness of the leather and the perfect amount of support in the seat. Perhaps you’re even enjoying a soothing warm massage. To accompany your fine seating […]

Ronin: 2015 Subaru WRX STi

There are few cars that are more synonymous with the enthusiast. This isn’t a car bought to go from A to B. It’s not perceived as a sensible car for a family. It probably won’t impress your lady-friend. Subaru didn’t design this car to please a focus group […]

Mammoth: 2014 Lexus LX570

The Lexus LX570 is like your grandmother’s parlor: big, leather-clad, and a bit dated. This luxury behemoth packs eight seats and eight cylinders on top of some serious 4×4 capabilities. Debuted in 2007 and refreshed in 2012, this third-generation LX570 is one of Lexus’ two remaining body-on-frame SUVs. […]

Farewell: 2015 VW Eos

Introduced in 2006, the Volkswagen Eos was meant to be a new and appealing option for those wanting a hard top convertible. It’s also the only hard-top convertible in the United States to have a built-in power sunroof, which is perfect for these cooler Fall days. Although 2015 […]

The Right Stuff: 2015 Audi A3

There comes a time in every person’s life when they realize they can’t do the same things they once could. It’s a little harder to stay up late, those jeans you’ve had for years are a bit tight, and you can’t quite run as fast or as far […]

Uphill: 2015 Kia K900

Kia and luxury don’t necessarily go hand-in-hand. That’s a big problem when you’re trying to launch a $60,000 flagship sedan after only 20 years in the US market. Kia’s goal is to be viewed as a luxury brand by 2017. That push up-market began last year with the […]
