The Mazda Miata (MX5) has been a popular, reasonably priced, sports car for almost 20 years.The MX5 roadster comes with an optional removable hardtop, and several style and option packages. It is reliable, fun to drive, easy and reasonable to get service or parts.  It gets decent gas mileage.Most people buy Miatas with the standard 5 speed stick shift transmission, but it is also available with an automatic.   The bass transducer in the seat and headrest speakers are really cool. Some very tall people might not find the Miata very comfortable, and if your aren't agile you migh...

  I have mostly driven a Toyota 4X4 truck.  From 4-cylinder to 6-cylinder, long bed to short, it was the most reliable, economical and versatile vehicle for the snowy mountain region I call home.  But that doesn't mean I haven't had others.  From Cadillacs to full sized trucks, from TR-7's to Lexus Coupes, I've owned a lot of vehicles.  There were a couple of dump trucks and 42-foot motor homes in the mix, too.  I was beginning to think I had a wire loose somewhere, though.  Aren't you supposed to have fond feelings your car?  They...

Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, it does.  For the past few years, we have seen one of the best Mustangs ever to come out of Ford - the Shelby GT500.  Belching out 500 screaming horses from its supercharged 5.4 liter V8, this Mustang was the fastest pony car ever to come out of Dearborn. Then last year we got a special taste of a rare version of the GT500 - the GT500KR which added an additional 40 horsepower. But with a price tag near $80,000, it was a bit out reach for the typical Mustang buyer.But so be it. The 2010 Mustang is here and with it, a new face li...

I'm very excited about my new purchase that I made a couple of months ago.  I bought a brand new 2007 Dodge Charger SRT8.  This has been my favorite car so far and I think it will be forever.  It has a lot of cool features that I have never seen in a car before.  Everything is automatic from the car seat to the car petals.  Yes,  you can adjust the range of the petals.  The steering wheel has six buttons on it.  You can adjust the volume, change from radio to a C.D, and plus a lot more.  I think one of the best features is that...

Ever since I was a teenager, I've always wanted an RX-7. Cars have always been a passion of mine, and having something so unique such as a vehicle with a rotary engine was a dream of mine forever. A few years ago I had the opportunity to get my hands on a Mazda RX-8, 2004 to be exact, and I jumped all over it.I have to say, it was one of the most fun to drive cars I've ever owned or had the pleasure of trying out. The straightline power was left a little to be desired, but the handling with near perfect 50/50 weight distribution was second to none without any performance modificatio...
