A while back, my dear wife Karen suffered what we of a certain generation call a fender bender. She stopped in her trusty Mazda, and the person following her did not. The car was still driveable, but there was some dings and dents involved. The insurance company told her what to do, appointments were made…
Last winter was not so good for my Chevy Cruze when it snowed. My vehicle is not so new anymore. It was still rolling on the tires the manufacturer put on it in 2011. Even though I consider it a low-mileage car, I was proud that my strict devotion to rotate-when-you-change-the-oil got me creeping to…
During a work lunch trip with three colleagues a bit ago, I spotted this scene out of the corner of my eye. It caused me to fish my iPhone 6s from my pocket. What the heck? Pardon me for my ignorance, but I do not know what this is. I thought maybe the police had…
The drivers got together at the big track down in Florida last week. Again and again and again. It was the precursor for today’s season-opener for NASCAR’s season, the much-anticipated Daytona 500.

The oil change and tire rotation has been on my radar for a few weeks now. My car dealership is faithful with its email reminders of such matters. So too is the monthly bulletin I get from OnStar, the high-tech service I continue to pay for because the radio commercial succeeded to convince me how…
For the 15th year, the Syracuse Nationals brought car lovers to the state fairgrounds just outside of last weekend. By the tens of thousands they piled up at the center of the grounds where the the New York State Fair will settle in four weeks and a day from today, and I’m talking the amound…
On a trip to the credit union this week, an ostentatious little car caught my eye. I would call the color Godawful Green. To each their own. But that wasn’t the only reason I stopped and stared for a bit. This was my first encounter with the Chevy Spark. The urban-ready little vehicle was not…
