    The Volkswagen Rabbit truck known as the Caddy is not a terribly exciting machine. It’s cool in its own old-school way, but a thrilling machine it is not.

    I am no BMW fan. The modern stuff is a massive turnoff. There are moments of brilliance in the brand’s history of course. In fact, one of my favorite driving experiences happened behind the wheel of a BMW. This was a 2002 restored and modified by Clarion for its Clarion Builds program. Interestingly, that blue…

    Distract yourself with these distinctly different SUVs from across the decades. Bringatrailer rarely disappoints when I’m in the mood to drool over all the Porsche 356s. I did find the Porsches that I was looking for, but I also found a bunch of vintage SUVs. 1969 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Kia recently adopted the K5 monicker…

    I recently spent time with a modern Mercedes-Benz G-Class and loved it. Many I ask about the older ones, however, say they are terrible to drive. I think I can deal with that, as my F100 wasn’t exactly a Lexus. And my Montero probably feels fairly similar in comparison to the older G. I’d love…

    Selling any used vehicle would be easy if they were all in as-new condition. But they’re not as-new, because they are, well, used. The problem is compounded when the vehicle is 25 years old. A lot of things can happen in the world over 25 years and a lot can happen to a vehicle in…

    When automakers advertise cars, they don’t really advertise cars. They advertise dreams. You see commercials with off-roaders climbing the tallest of mountains and barreling through a desert. You see muscle cars with clouds of tire smoke behind them and sports cars drifting effortlessly through the city. For people buying cars it isn’t about the car,…

    I have decided to sell my beloved 1995 Acura Integra GS-R. The reasons are plenty, but mostly because I don’t drive it much. Since I’m of the opinion that there is no point in owning something that I have no use for, I have decided to sell it. And it only took me six years…
