The 2026 Genesis GV70 might not look significantly different, but there are important changes under the sheetmetal. Slowly but surely, this brand is gearing up for a fight with Audi, BMW and Lexus. @Genesis_USA #GV70 #automotive youtu.be/jze8xvmVjDw…

Curious what the @porscheusa.bsky.social delivery experience is like? Let me show you first hand. I picked up my CPO Taycan 4S at Porsche Ontario and, like a nerd, shot the process. Next up, the drive back to Seattle… youtu.be/fbNS7Z2bFgU…

For the Subaru faithful, the Forester finally gets a gas/electric powertrain (with a little help from Toyota). It’s a very different system than RAV4 though. “Forester and hybrid” are the best combo since chocolate and peanut butter. youtu.be/Hn9AqYyyL34…

Enthusiasts with families will enjoy the Chevrolet Blazer EV SS. Fast? Yup. Handling? Impressive. Harsh ride? Nope. I drive it on track and with @Tedward on road. A gaffe, I speak $52.5K in the video. It’s $62.5K before tax credits. D’oh! #automotive #cars…

Can’t get to the 2025 New York International Auto Show (or just want to check it out first)? Here’s my 30,000 foot view. All the major reveals, concepts and important cars. I walked 8 hours and fought the crowds so you don’t have to. youtu.be/nXKhCbAk4_w…

At the New York International Auto Show today, Hyundai took the wraps off the 2nd generation Palisade. Now with the option of hybrid power that’s more powerful than the V6 version. I got early access. Here’s a deep dive on what to expect when it arrives in…

To REALLY understand the whipsaw tariff situation (about cars at least) without political posturing, my friend John Vincent at @usnews.com did a deep dive that's by far the best I've seen. Read it and make yourself the smart person at your next function.…

You may not need inexpensive transportation, but friends and family might. I spent a week in the Chevrolet Trax Activ. Fully loaded? Under $28K. GM executed about perfect here. Seriously. Not fast but it's a nice rig for the money. Most people think it’s a…

Anyone know a structural engineer in the Seattle area to check out my cave of a concrete garage? Tapping the hive mind since I’m failing on my own. Looking to cut 5-6 inches from the opening on both sides so the pucker factor is reduced when driving my car…

Do you know what a Toyota Crown Signia is? The wagony SUV hybrid isn’t getting much marketing. Pity. It might be the best Toyota I’ve driven in a while. Handsome. Efficient. Comfortable. Nails it’s mission. Maybe drop the price? Oops. Tarrifs! #automotive…
