Lexus TX 350 – Is this What Peak Performance Looks Like?

The Lexus TX 350 has an aura about it! To the point where I felt like I was being punk’d lol. No disrespect to the Lexus TX - it’s a very nice vehicle, I'll say that up front. Sophisticated, spacious, and well-built. But can we just be real for a second?? In a world...

Right to Repair — Because You Own The Car

There are certain things in life that should not require a legal fight. You should be able to fix your own sink or replace your own light switch. Likewise, you should also be able to work on your own vehicle sitting in your own driveway… bought with your own money…...

McCarty’s 55 Chevy – Sentimental Value > Market Value

Love at First Sight – EH3 Honda Civic Si

Fall of 1991: My mom takes her 1990 Civic to the Honda dealership for service. I ride with her so I can look at the new cars & grab all the sales brochures. Then… it happened. I saw my literal dream car right there on the showroom floor.   The brand new...

Social Media’s Influence on Car Shows – Don’t Blame Yourself

This article was actually inspired by Jeepin Bubba’s previous article on the decline (and/or over-saturation) of car shows. And honestly… the more I thought about it, the more I realized a lot of us in the automotive world have quietly been feeling the same way. But I...

Car Shows – Are They Evolving? Dying? Or Just Too Many?

Jeepin Bubba here. I’ve been in the thick of it - working at car shows, Jeep shows, and off-road events consistently for 14 years now. And I hate to say this... but... they seem to be declining. For me - the peak years for shows was about 2015-2018. We used to see...
