Think I can get car seats in the backseat of a Saab 93?  Temperatures are going to hit high 70s today and my motorcycle has a dead battery, so I’m pining for a convertible.

Yahoo! Autos posts lists each week of the cars that received the most visitors. They break them down into 11 categories: sedans, coupes, covertibles, SUVs, sports cars, wagons, vans, trucks, luxury vehicles, mid-range vehicles, and economy vehicles. This week, the 2006 Mustang holds the #1 spot in 5 of those categories: Coupes, convertibles, sports cars, [read more]

Chris and I just watched a show on History Channel about replacing a guy’s first car. Typical story you hear from baby boomers – the guy had an awesome sports car that he had to sell when he started a family and he’s missed it ever since. This particular episode was about a black Chevelle [read more]

While staying in a hotel (or perhaps a brothel) in Paris, the founder of Chevrolet was taken by the bow tie pattern on the wallpaper and adopted it as his company’s logo.

Chris and I went by the Toyota dealer yesterday evening to spec out the 4Runners. Most of the ones in stock at our dealer had cloth interior and many had fake hood scoops. Not a good first impression! I was pleasantly surprised by the prices. I was expecting high 30′s, but the most expensive one [read more]

We’re leaning more and more towards the Pathfinder, but we’ll explore all our options before we purchase anything.

I recommend starting with their Winter Olympics episode.  They take on the [read more]

Chris and I went to the Houston Auto Show a few weekends ago and it rekindled my car-shopping bug. We looked at the cars we’ve been interested in for a while, like the Pathfinder, the A6, the Tahoe (that’s all Chris, you couldn’t give one to me), and the Tuareg (however you spell that). We [read more]

Posted the photos today.  We shot mostly cars we’re interested in since we’ll be buying a car in the next year.  I love the Range Rover Sport, but also the Ford Edge, Lincoln MKX, and the Audi A6.  Chris loves the Z06.  And the Camaro.  And the Z06. The album also includes photos of the [read more]
