I first learned about Subaru while working at a car dealership in Chapel Hill, NC during college. We had several import brands, and I knew the least about this Japanese car.

Toyota is known for its fuel efficient vehicles. The 2014 Toyota Corolla LE ECO comes with a newly overhauled design that bumps this common compact up a few notches in the attractiveness department.

One might balk at the thought of comparing an Acura with a Hyundai, but we are choosing to ponder the idea with intrigue. We attended the official launches of these two mid-size sedans months ago, but getting extra seat time in them solidified both as being worthy competitors.

Consumers and dealers can expect to hear a lot from Toyota in 2012. The Japanese automaker will launch 19 new models this year alone – that’s a new or updated car every 19 days.

We have recently witnessed one of the most significant changes in the auto industry since the Model T and the assembly line: the electric car. The electric power of a car wasn’t the big shift since early electric car production began in the 1880s.

What tires are you driving on? What kind of condition are they in? These are the kind of questions that can determine whether your next trip will be a safe one or not.

Come with me on an adventure to the Arctic Circle, where snow-covered evergreens line the horizon, Northern Lights dance across the night sky, and reindeer roam the land. We are in Ivalo, Finland where Nokian Tyres has the northernmost test track in the world.

As drivers, tires aren’t always on the forefront of our minds. We simply view them as rubber compounds that help to carry us safely down the road. It’s only when something goes wrong – a blown wheel or a slide in the rain – that we even think about our tires.

It was just the other day that I tweeted that I’d be interested in Google Glass if it had a camera on the ear piece that pointed backwards. Think of how great it would be to have eyes behind your head.

It’s no secret that celebrities’ personal items can sell for a huge amount of money. On any given day you can log on to eBay or a similar site and see so-and-so’s used gum going for hundreds of dollars.
