    Auto Review: 2023 Dodge Charger Super Bee
    Loud and proud. That's how I can describe my week in the Dodge Charger Super Bee Special Edition. 475hp and your neighbors will definitely know when you start it each morning. Dodge made only 1,000 of these models to celebrate (or rather mourn) the final year of the gas engine version as it will electrify its future productions.

    Auto Review: 2024 Cadillac Escalade Premium
    Easily one of the largest vehicles on the road, the Cadillac Escalade is a monster of an SUV yet rides smooth as silk thanks to its magnetic ride control and suspension. That's just the start to describe this beast with more comfort than my home and certainly more screens. It isn't cheap but if you have the means it is tough to find a bigger and better truck.

    Auto Review: 2023 Jeep Compass Altitude
    Jeep is always a solid brand. My first SUV was a Grand Cherokee and I had a great experience. The Compass is a smaller SUV and good vehicle for those looking for a roomy, drivable Jeep.

    Auto Review: 2023 RAM 1500 Limited Elite Crew Cab
    Is there a better way to end 2023 than by test driving a pickup truck? The RAM 1500 Limited Elite helped me ring in the new year by riding high and in comfort. RAM continues to produce a powerful beast (this one can tow up to 12,750 lbs) while still looking stylish and providing creature comforts like quilted leather seats, a jeweled rotary shifter, and the tops-in-class Uconnect 5 infotainment system.

    AUTO REVIEW: 2023 Chevy Trailboss Crew Cab
    I actually prefer mid-size trucks vs larger ones. Much easier to park. Plus I don't have the need to schlep things around on a regular basis. But when I do a mid-size works quite well. Chevy's Colorado has always been a solid truck and the Trailboss version gets you off the pavement with ease featuring some accessories to make dirt, gravel, and hills easy to maneuver over.

    Auto Review: 2024 Kia Telluride SX
    I think Kia continues to do a fabulous job of making vehicles that have value along with styling and comfort. That includes the SUV category and the Telluride continues to be one of my faves. The 2024 version with several upgraded options in the SX model proved to handle well, fit many passengers, had a comfy ride and is packed with nice creature comforts.

    Auto Review: 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X
    We like trucks here in Texas and I like luxurious things. Boom. Here ya go. A luxurious truck from GMC and it packs a wallop when it comes to comfort, towing and also paying for it. The GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X certainly can conquer most outdoor and mountainous terrain.

    Auto Review: 2024 Buick Envista
    Who knew Buick has a new model that is sleek and looks like it could cost $60,000 or more? Not me until I test drove the new Envista. This sub-compact vehicle may be a bit plastic inside and have not-so-sexy engine specs, but it drives well, handles great, looks incredibly awesome and costs under $30,000.

    Auto Review: 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon
    I've been test driving Jeeps (and almost every other brand of vehicles) for over 15 years. I seriously think the new Wrangler Rubicon is the best Jeep I've ever driven, Wow. Tall. Capable. Comfy. Techy. Fun. I could go on but you should just hear the rest.

    Auto Review: 2023 Mazda Miata MX-5 RF
    The Mazda Miata is one of the most iconic sports cars and the newest version - complete with an automatic hard top - continues the tradition of a fun vehicle. It's not the largest car on the road but it definitely puts a smile on your face if you can fit behind the wheel.

    Auto Review: 2023 Lexus NX 350h
    With the cost of gas on the rise now may be a good time to consider an EV or at least a hybrid. Though they may be a bit higher in price they often save money in the long run if you factor in fuel savings. The Lexus NX 350h is a hybrid that can get you some good gas mileage (or gas mileage equivalent) along with a comfy ride, wrapped up in a sexy 4-door compact SUV.

    Auto Review: 2024 Kia Seltos SX Turbo
    If you're looking for a smaller SUV that handles well at a decent price, you definitely need to consider the Kia Seltos. Though not as large at the Telluride, this 4-door ride packs a good punch under the hood along with nice interior features.

    Auto Review: 2024 Buick Encore GX Avenir
    It's a small CUV yet the new Buick Encore packs a good punch with its 1.3 L turbo engine while putting out a max of 155 hp. The upgraded Avenir packages adds several fine, finishing touches like leather seating and premium audio. And did you notice the new Buick logo?

    Samsung Watch 6 Classic - The Bezel Is Back!
    As I continue to review some of the new Samsung product launches I finally get to try the Watch 6 Classic. AT&T provided me with a review unit and the improvements from previous versions are good enough to upgrade your "old" watch. Congrats to Samsung for bringing back the convenient rotating bezel that was missing from the last version.
