Automotive Sales Data – Shows Massive Shifts in Trends

I’ve always found data fascinating. And for almost two decades now, I’ve manually compiled automotive sales data on a monthly, quarterly, & yearly basis. Weird I know - but compiling the data was priceless for me. Way back when I entered the automotive business at...

OEM’s Overreaching – Let Us Love Cars Our Way

Lately, it feels like OEMs have lost the plot. Let me correct that - OEMs have lost the plot. And rather than focus on what people want, OEMs seem just as interested in suing people & controlling their customers after the sale. Ford, Ferrari, Tesla - you name it....

Chaotic 350hp Chevy Sonic RS

First things first - I’m a huge nerd. Therefore, coming up with titles for these features on is kind of a weird guilty pleasure of mine. So with that said (stay with me here), Sonic the Hedgehog is after chaos emeralds in the video game. Emeralds are green. And...

2025 Ford Expedition Screens are Sus

Sometimes, as an automotive writer, my brain feels like a misfiring engine - igniting way too many topics at once. It’s as if I’ve got a dozen different articles simmering on the same metaphorical stove. All in one pot... while the other burners sit unused. And while...

Toyota Crown Signia – Where does it fit?

The Toyota Crown Signia is kind of an odd duck… for Toyota anyway. It’s a move into a segment where they haven’t really been before. Is it a wagon, CUV, or somewhere in-between? Honestly, I found myself forgetting I was in a Toyota altogether, and felt like I was...
