2023 Mazda CX-9. Leaving Smoothly.

The Mazda CX-9 is a reasonably sized three-row SUV that fits in the “just right” size category. It’s comfortable on the inside without being too daunting to park. Mazda will soon release its new hybrid SUV, the CX-90, but for those looking for a tried-and-true gasoline engine package, the CX-9 oozes refinement. Now that the vehicle has been in production for a while, the kinks Read more

2023 Volvo XC60 Recharge AWD Ultimate. Midsize SUV Tech Monster

The midsize SUV space is crowded. Volvo wants to separate itself from the pack by not only offering a vehicle with its usual safety features, but also one that’s a technology workhorse. You want a hybrid that you can drive electric-only so you only need to worry about filling up with gas on long trips? Check. You want a large center touchscreen with built-in Google integration Read more

Upgrading Your Car Radio Just Got More Complicated

Decades ago, it took about $40 in parts, on top of the cost of a new car radio, to give yourself improved sound quality and more features. A simple wire harness adapter would let a single-DIN radio connect right to the factory radio harness behind your dash. Add an antenna adapter and you were likely on your way. Fast-forward to the 2020s and modern infotainment systems Read more

2022 Ford Bronco Wildtrak Sasquatch. Wranglin’ the Competition

Off-road capability isn’t usually something that comes to mind when you focus on vehicle technologies and conveniences. But the white-hot Ford Bronco is one of the most coveted vehicles in America.

2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness. The Bronco of Outbacks!

Maybe it isn’t fair to compare a Subaru Outback to the new Ford Bronco. No doubt about it, the new Bronco is red-hot right now, and for hardcore off-roading, it’s the perfect vehicle. Unfortunately, most Broncos will be relegated to hopping curbs at the mall parking lot. But let’s say you’re an off-roader who wants a vehicle to drive every day with reasonable fuel economy and Read more

2022 VW Taos. A CUV Competitor with a Dash of Sporty.

No doubt about it, the small CUV, or compact utility vehicle, has replaced the compact car on American roads as the entry-level vehicle of choice. VW has the Tiguan model, but they wanted to engineer something that came in smaller at a slightly better price point. The 2022 VW Taos does not disappoint. You’d be hard-pressed to see the exterior differences, but you can get a cute Read more

2022 Nissan Versa SR. Versa-tility.

It’s a tricky time to be shopping the in the used car market. Prices are so high, it’s as if depreciation doesn’t exist. The trend will eventually correct itself, but now we have some reasonably savvy used car shoppers saying to themselves, “What if I just buy an inexpensive new car? That way I have a strong warranty and no worries for years.” For those who’ve ever been Read more
