Sometimes you just need interior space. If you have a family with more than three children and a dog, usually the practical answer is a minivan. But most minivans don’t offer four-wheel-drive and ground clearance. The 2021 Chevrolet Suburban is the answer if you aren’t in suburbia but more on the rural side and have a large family.

The 2021 Lexus LC 500 Convertible is the flagship of the Lexus lineup. Because it is rare, I was constantly stopped by neighbors admiring the beautiful car. No denying it is beautiful. Even though it is not a folding hardtop (and Lexus engineers have the capability to make that happen), the LC 500 Convertible’s soft-top design allowed engineers to focus on accentuating the Read more
If you’ve browsed any of the online car audio forums or Facebook groups, you’ve inevitably run across someone asking if you have to upgrade the speaker wire in a vehicle to support a new car audio system.
