There will always be profit and commerce. Perhaps the lesson in this event is remembering how to run a good business - one where no one gets hurt.
I was surprised, though, that the news reports indicated that the hottest sector of the market right now is small SUVs. It surprised me because I recently drove these three small SUVs, and I wasn’t impressed.
Lexus, and in particular the IS350, proves that the Toyota motorcar company is capable of sheer excitement and leadership. But they had better get some of the excitement into the Toyota line.
Women are running billion dollar companies, increasingly becoming successful entrepreneurs, and earning more college degrees than men. What will it take to move beyond the myths so that everyone and every business achieves their full potential?
Cross-over vehicles blur lines of where one car manufacturer leaves off and the other beings.
The 2017 Ford Escape SE 4WD gets high marks from Jeff Rundles.
As the auto industry continues to embrace autonomous, shared and electric mobility, it is fast becoming the face of innovation – and investors are taking notice.
I don’t want my car to run roughshod over me. I don’t want my car to be the second grade teacher I detested, or the nanny who was never satisfied with your performance and behavior.
It is not a Corolla, not even close. And more importantly, calling it the Corolla iM, I believe, demeans the Corolla nameplate.
I’m not really a pickup truck enthusiast, but I really enjoyed the three weeks I spent driving these three great pickup trucks, if for no other reason that I could experience how the other half lives – and I do mean half.
Today’s buyer of these vehicles would recognize the earliest versions, and that’s what makes them venerable: While they keep up with the times in styling and technology, they maintain the heritage.
A recent trip to Michigan afforded me the opportunity to test drive the new Mitsubishi Lancer 2.4 SEL AWC 4-door sedan, and I couldn’t have been luckier.
Okay, so this vehicle doesn’t get the best gas mileage on the planet, but I just can’t imagine a better road vehicle.
While it is always exciting to drive a BMW – they don’t call these cars the Ultimate Driving Machine for nothing – I couldn’t help thinking, in advance, that this car would have two strikes against it from the get-go.
These vehicles both deserve a only a brief review: The Prius because not much is new, and the Lincoln MKX because, as Granny used to say, if you haven’t got anything nice to say better to say nothing at all.
In every Lexus, you get all the luxury, and it is done in a high-quality way that will last and last and last. Those things are givens. Here's what sets this particular model apart.
My son, the teen-age car expert, was very excited the day the Renegade was delivered, calling it one of the coolest vehicles he had ever been in. Hard to argue.
My initial enthusiasm for the Outlander was diminished because my very next vehicle was the Hyundai Santa Fe and there is just no comparison. The Santa Fe is flat-out the better vehicle.
If I were one of the other car makers, I would go get a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe, show it to my designers and engineers, and tell them that we pretty much have to build something quite like this for 2018 or cede the SUV space.
When you punch it to get the needed acceleration for entering the highway, for instance, it kicks in with a lot of relish but very little mustard. Maybe I should have said ketchup, because it seemed on the highway that I was playing a game of “catch-up” all the time.
If I were in the market for a smaller, mid-sized SUV this would definitely be on my shopping list. What bugs me is that Mazda could easily fix the little things wrong for not a lot of money, and they should.
The 2016 Lexus RX 350 drives beautifully, has all the “stuff,” is quite comfortable, super quiet, roomy, and has a new bold look that is stunning. Then it hit me: It has hidden flaws.

I thought it drove great. I thought it was among the best handling vehicles of this type I have ever driven. I was thoroughly delighted with every single thing about it – except one. And this one thing, for me, is a deal killer.
