If you’ve ever read a fantasy novel like the Lord of the Rings while thinking about cars, trucks, and SUVs, then perhaps you have wondered what kind of character each vehicle would represent. No? Maybe that’s just me. No matter – it’s time to answer this important question, at least in part, and take […]
Comparing similar products from different companies can be tough – everyone has their favorites and you’ve probably known what you like for years. There’s no rational reason that I like Bugs Bunny more than Mickey Mouse, I just do – and I have similar preferences for everything from who makes my computer to what […]
Consider this: if Goldilocks was looking at different GMC Sierra trucks (we’ll assume this is years later, she’s befriended the three bears, and wants a powerful full-size truck to make it easier to visit them in the forest), then the 2019 GMC Sierra 2500HD would be the “just right” option between the 1500 and the […]
Monitoring and properly changing the oil in your car is one of the simplest and most essential forms of car maintenance you can perform. Checking oil levels is easy and can show early warning signs of numerous issues that become very expensive if not fixed promptly. Getting a quick oil change at a dealer […]
Shopping for a new truck, like the 2019 GMC Canyon, is all about looking at your options, analyzing each possible detail and spec for the kind of truck you want, and then finding the one that ticks off all (or at least most) of your boxes. Sometimes that can be easy: the planets just align, […]
For many years, the Toyota 4Runner has been one of the leading names in off-road SUV design and functionality, and that reputation is well-earned. The 4Runner is clearly designed to travel off the road and handle just about any rough conditions a person might reasonably (or even unreasonably) want to drive through. Even though the […]
The Jeep Wrangler is something special, but in a lot of ways, it makes absolutely no sense. Now calm down Jeep lovers – I’m not disparaging your beloved company nor am I criticizing the Wrangler’s design or function. From a practical standpoint, however, it’s a two-door mini-SUV with a convertible top and fold-down windshield […]
Ask someone to name an “American full-size pickup truck,” and there’s a good chance the answer will be either the Chevy Silverado 1500 or the Ford F-150. These are the quintessential American pickups, and even though there are more powerful heavy-duty options available, for most truck owners, these are the ones they want. So let’s […]
If you are looking at pickup trucks, unless you are only interested in heavy-duty models, at some point you will definitely come across the GMC Sierra 1500 and the Toyota Tundra. They are two of the leading pickups on the road when it comes to straightforward trucks that get the job done during the week […]
The Chevy Camaro has a special place in my heart – my father had a white 1979 Camaro when I was a kid and riding around in that thing was like nothing else. While some people prefer a Mustang, and the swoop of a Corvette Stingray is undeniably sexy, there’s just something about a Camaro […]
When I’m looking at a pickup truck, I like options. I like to see that a manufacturer believes in a truck enough to give me lots of choices and options to choose from in order to customize that pickup just as much as everything else in my life. One of the things I really like […]
For years, GMC has offered some of the most rugged and impressive trucks and SUVs on the road, but even they know how to step up their own game. They do this with a single word: “Denali.” This is the indicator that you’re looking at something special, something with power that can’t be beaten […]
When you decide to buy a used car, truck, or SUV, you suddenly have a huge world of options to explore and delve into as you try to find your ride for the next few years (or decades). One of the options you might not immediately consider are electric cars if you’re looking for […]
To me, when I hear “Chevy Malibu,” the first thing that comes to mind is the car driven by a pizza delivery guy. To be honest, I’m not sure if that’s because I saw it in a movie, if the local pizza guy drove a Malibu when I was in my 20s, or if […]
If you’re already excited about the 2019 Chevy Colorado and ready to drive one right now, then this isn’t for you. Congratulations on your excitement, now go read something else, maybe enjoy a slice of pie and a cup of coffee, or just go for a drive in your (I assume) Chevy truck. On […]
If you’ve ever been looking for used cars in Colorado Springs and noticed the “Trail Rated” badge found on new and used Jeep vehicles then you’ve probably wondered what it means. And if not, then you’re going to find out the answer anyway. In some ways, the Trail Rated badge is a form of marketing […]
One of the first decisions you will probably make when it’s time to buy a vehicle is whether you should go for a used model or something brand new. This is a big decision, since it affects the types of cars and trucks you’re going to look at and it can have a major impact […]
I can’t help myself; I’m sorry but I just have to do this: Winter is coming! Now that that’s out of my system, let’s talk about used cars in the winter and how to make sure you are ready. If you’re reading this in sunny California, then go enjoy a day at the beach because […]
I know that looking to buy a used or pre-owned vehicle is a lot of work and can take quite a bit of time and energy. Knowing what to look for can take some of the struggles out of the process, however, which is why it can be so helpful to have a few […]
As autumn begins, it’s the time of year to start thinking about winter and make sure your car or truck is ready to get you through cold weather until the sun shines on long summer days again. One of the most important things you can do is make sure the tires on your car are […]
