Keeping Veloster Quirky
I love that Hyundai chose Austin, Texas to launch the second generation of their hot little hatch, the Veloster. While driving the car throughout the hill country, Hyundai gave us a hashtag to use, ‘Keep Veloster Quirky,’ and since as Texans, we ‘Keep Austin Weird,’ I thought the two went hand in hand.

2018 Mazda MX-5 Miata Convertible Soft Top~Drippin’ In Finesse

Ford Raptor~For the Kid in All of Us
I won’t soon forget my first ride as a passenger in the Raptor. We were at our annual Truck Rodeo and Ford brought along a driver to give passengers a thrill in the truck doing laps across an empty field. This field became the driver’s racetrack and I am pretty sure we were sailing through […]
‘My Greatest Find’~Jeep Cherokee Limited 4×4
Not just a great find in the practical sense but also adventuresome and economical. On a quick trip from Dallas to Waco, the Jeep Cherokee delivered around 23 mpg on the highway, while in town we received 20 mpg. And though it has all the off-road and towing capabilities, on this particular cold day in […]
