Used Car Buying Tip: Don’t Trust Your Own Eyes premium
During my 29 years on this planet I’ve heard the phrase “The only person you can truly trust is yourself”. While that’s a nice thought, it’s total BS. You can’t trust yourself as far as you can throw yourself, which is a distance of zero anything. Unless of course you’ve successfully pulled off the world’s first human cloning, […]

Malaise Monday 8/17: 1974-1976 Mercury Cougar XR-7 premium
While many larger, more absurdly optioned cars can be labeled as the absolute embodiment of the Malaise Era, the 3rd generation Mercury Cougar gives them a run for their money. For 1974, Mercury took the Cougar away from the performance car segment and moved it into the personal luxury car market. This was standard across the industry as […]

Week In Review: August 10th-14th premium
When you look at this 1977 Dodge Monaco, does you skin begin to itch? Mine does. This thing is practically the automotive manifestation of a guy in a polyester suit, complete with a comb over and bad pickup lines. The Dodge Monaco is an easily overlooked malaise era car. It didn’t have any particularly innovative features […]

Underrated Ride Of The Week: 2007-2009 Pontiac Solstice GXP premium
So what if it shares a manual transmission with the Hummer H3, Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon? It was built to take a beating and with all that torque on tap, that's a good thing. As for the overall low quality cabin, that comes with the territory. This is a Pontiac, not a BMW, not a Porsche, not even an Audi. It's not going to feel premium and it isn't trendy.

Wallpaper Wednesday: 1965 Buick Riviera premium
  It has been called “one of the most beautiful American cars ever built” and with details like this, it’s no surprise why. The first generation Buick Riviera (1963-1965) is rolling proof that American car designers were willing to make radical departures from the norm and found success in doing so. The car is a sought after […]

Future Used Car Review: 2016 Nissan Maxima SR premium
The Maxima is the anti-crossover and a perfect example of why the midsize sedan still matters. There's not a single comparably priced crossover that I'd feel comfortable driving the way I drove the Maxima.

From a new high tech Subaru Impreza, to a cult classic Chrysler, to a Toyota Land Cruiser that is still somehow underrated. This week was a good one!

Underrated Ride Of The Week: 1990-1997 Toyota Land Cruiser premium
  Can a legendary vehicle qualify as underrated? When it’s preceded by two more legends I certainly think so. Such is the case with the J80 Series Toyota Land Cruiser. During its production run from 1990 to 1997, the J80 was offered in a number of different configurations around the world and boosted Land Cruiser sales to 2 […]
