Overview: Ok, back to reality and responsibility after a series on pickup trucks. This 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt 4-door sedan isn't the first in a series of economical cars to contrast with the gas guzzling trucks I just completed, but I will touch on a lot of fuel-efficient vehicles because the inevitable...

Overview: This week I tested the 2005 Chevrolet Trail Blazer EXT 4WD Special Purpose SUV. It occurs to me looking at the number of cars and trucks and SUV's Chevrolet is responsible for on our roads, one must wonder if there are too many of the line. Why do they produce...

Overview: This week I drove the 2004 Chevrolet Malibu LS Sedan and I'm not one to complain, but the two ladies riding in the car on this lengthy journey complained about the seat comfort. I thought I didn't have much rear body padding, and the seats were just fine to me. Ok,...

Overview: This week I tested the awesome American as apple pie two-seater sports car Corvette. The Z06 is the cats meow and reminds me so much of brother John's 1971 Daytona Ferrari in look and feel. But the amazing part is that Ferrari built their version over 30 years before. But with...

Overview: This week I drove the Chevrolet Avalanche for 2002. As you probably know this is a new product for GM and a gutsy move to give the automotive enthusiast something different and unique. I just love the ads they've come up with and the general feel I get from GM for...

Overview: This week we're looking at the 2002 Chevy Trail Blazer. Can you believe the year is just about gone? In any case, it's been a while since I drove this model, and when I think of an SUV I always think of the Blazer as a major contender right behind...

Overview: This week we're looking at the 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 Coupe subcompact. And boy did I turn this car everyway but loose. I put it through tough paces for two weeks and over 2,000 miles. Long trips can be telling, and if you do drive long distances, you'll want to...

Overview: This weeks Chevrolet 2001 S10 Crew Cab pickup is something I could find 1000 uses for. Recently I took a trip to Tecate, Mexico for a weekend house-building jaunt with 100 other folks from Pasadena Christian. It was a productive and interesting weekend and I really wanted to take a...
