Truck accessories are often worth the investment on a new truck, but their value depends far more on timing and planning than on the accessories themselves. Because dealerships commonly offer add-ons during the purchase process, it is easy to spend money before you fully understand how you will use the truck. Many owners get better results by waiting until after delivery and Read more

One of BMW’s first quirky electric car offerings was the i3. It was small, and some versions even included a gasoline range extender using the engine from a BMW scooter. Wow — how far we’ve come.

2025 BMW X7 M60i. Fast Family Hauler

When I think of three-row SUVs, typically BMW does not pop into my mind. Then I realize I forgot about the X7, which BMW does not want to hear because they want consumers to immediately recognize it as an option for people hauling. My mind tends to wander to the domestic luxury haulers like the Escalade, Grand Wagoneer and Navigator. But some people want luxury with the ability Read more

The 2025 Lexus LX700h Overtrail has a purpose: to get you in and out of rugged environments safely, dependably and, most importantly, in luxury. It fills the void left by the old Toyota Land Cruiser with three-row capability and a comfortable on-road ride.
