  • 2016 Jeep Renegade – Cool and Capable

    One of the coolest vehicles around for under $18,000 according to KBB and, in my view, perfectly suited for that new teen driver in the family.  This roomy runabout offers the newest in safety technology and equipment to help keep any young driver and friends safe. Check out my write-up on the 2016 Jeep Renegade…

  • 2016 MINI Cooper Clubman – Drive Report

    It’s bigger and better, but not really that big. With two engine choices and yes even the chance to get a “stick shift” transmission, the new Clubman makes for a very “right-size” city car. It seats five and has a roomy rear cargo area. Its go kart-like handling makes for a lot of fun-to-drive. Read…
