St. Patrick’s Day is March 17. Besides a pub crawl, there may be no better way to celebrate than by visiting your local car dealer and driving home in a green car. No, not green in color, but a fuel-efficient hybrid that helps you reduce your trips to the pump.
Gas prices continue to rise at a rapid clip. A recent
We like a two-door car as much as the next driver. Why not, since coupes look so, well, cool.
Sure, coupes aren’t practical if you have kids. But life isn’t always about practicality, is it? Do you really need to trade-in your less-than-one-year-old iPad 2 for the New iPad? Of course not, but plenty of people are planning to complete that
Las Vegas, Nevada — True story: I’m driving on I-15 outside Salt Lake City with a friend who pays attention to cars when a Hyundai Azera passes us in the fast lane.
