2022 Mazda CX-30 Premium – Review

Automobile sizes are incredibly relative from country to country, or at least from continent to continent. When I was in Germany recently, around the holidays, I was reminded of just how compact some “family cars” are. What we consider small works for a family of four, or even five, overseas. The Mazda CX-30 was built […]

Watching a wealthy actor attempt to be a race car driver is typically pretty boring stuff. There are exceptions, of course. Patrick Dempsey can wheel. Paul Newman was a hero in a car. Adam Carolla typically pushes his own fleet of vintage race cars pretty hard. Gene Hackman ran at the 24 Hours of Daytona, […]

My year with a 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E (and why I just sold it)

I like to occasionally take a break from new car reviews and focus on my own buying experiences. I feel like people (often) ask me what I drive as an automotive journalist because they assume I’m pretty informed about what’s good, and I purchase accordingly. And I suppose that’s true, though the recent craziness in […]

Life is unpredictable, a wise man once said that it’s like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get, or when you’re going to get it. My last road-trip review of the 4Runner TRD Pro alluded to some significant life changes on the horizon for me. That trip was important for […]

It’s rare that a new car excites me these days, but the GR Corolla has done that in a big way. This feels like a rally-ready homologation special, and I love it. It helps that I’m driving the Morizo Edition too, which gets more aggressive gearing, drops some weight, and feels ready for anything.
