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

My Volvo C40 Recharge showed up in a striking white color they call Cloud Blue (it features way more white than blue), and I admired how clean it looked. It also flaunts an environmentally clean Polestar-engineered powertrain. The interior has a large LCD instrument cluster with a portrait-mounted infotainment screen, but with just enough buttons and dials to make everything Read more

The Difference Between Lumens, Lux and Candela

When it comes to upgrading your vehicle’s lighting, a clear understanding of lumens, lux and candela is not just beneficial, it’s crucial.

Decades ago, most cars and trucks didn’t come with center consoles. In some cases, this was based on the vehicle design; in others, it was a cost concern. If you’re looking for a location for a modern multimedia receiver or a subwoofer enclosure where there isn’t room, having a specialty mobile enhancement retailer build you a console can be a great solution.
