Best and Worst Used Cars
They usually are.

Astra test drive
Regular market forces will make the decisions much easier. Gas will most likely crest $4 a gallon this summer and its only a matter of a few years before it hits $5. Even if people started driving less in the U.S. the excess supply would most likely be gobbled up in other areas of the world. So in a nutshell, people are either going to be financial forced into smaller/more fuel efficient cars...or they are going to be rich.

Is there a recession looming?
1. Inconclusive...not a really relevant measure of an economies strength because not only does it only measure those "actively seeking employment", it doesn't take into consideration underemployment, which is even more disturbing. 2. Stock market is a poor indicator of economic health. Just because companies are doing good...does not mean they are doing good in the domestic market. 3. The last interest rate drop was the equivalent of putting a bandaid on a gun wound...it will do basically nothing. Even if they kept dropping the rate it would only delay the inevitable market correction.

All signs point to the U.S. being headed into a recession.

Edmunds previews Malibu
Basically. They all follow the same basic formula...but each has a different package. Most are dull...but reliable.

September 2007: Honda Motor Company
You're not the only one. It's the power of marketing with the "H" on the hood.

Automakers slapped with $2B lawsuit
What a waste of time and taxpayer money.

TOYOTA - TOO MANY MODELS
Toyota actually has 9 SUV's for 3 divisions...probably half of them are just pointless overlaps.

Hyundai dubs Buick, Cadillac, Saturn "so-called 'American'"
Nothing like an appeal to the average stupid american consumer.

Hey, Big Spenders
Talk about some faulty logic

Stretching to make car payments?
The debt problem is only going to get worse before it gets better. The debt problems now are just the tip of the iceberg.

See Tee Ess Four
I've seen 2 of these on the street already...I wasn't aware they were on sale yet!

LA 2007: 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe
It's truly an eyesore...actually all the recent coupes (G6, Solara) are eyesores. It seems like the collective forgot how to design a coupe

NASA quietly revises temperature data
Last time I checked global warming wasn't a myth..it was a fact. The only thing in question is if human activity is cause of the increase or if it is a natural weather cycle.

Rode in an Acura TSX today
Well I would hope so...the TSX costs 10K more.

Honda sued over gas mileage clames
Thank you for reminding me why I'm smart enough to not read CR.

Mr. Cobalt, we are calling you out...
That pretty much sums up my thoughts about mine. I've had mine for 2.5 years and 41K miles and would buy another one today if my lease was up.

2008 Toyota Highlander Pricing Announced
I wonder what significant problem this one will have right after it launches.

May 2007 Sales: American Honda
The interior with the NAV looks good...the interior without looks gawdawful.
-
May 2007 Sales: Toyota Motor Sales
Well someone has to pick up the slack from domestics cutting back on fleet sales.
-
So I got to ride in a Civic yesterday
Might want to check your prices...Civic Hybrid with NAV starts at 25k...XM is another 300 bucks. The civic is a decent car....but its overpriced...it also doesn't help that it's closest competitor (Mazda3) is a better car pretty much all around. The low end models are also incredibly overpriced for what you get.

More New 2008 Honda Accord Coupe Spyshots
Still looks crappy. Actually I don't think any current coupe looks good...they all look like jellybeans to me.
-
Spied: 2008 Honda Accord Coupe
Looks like the current accord front with a squared off version of the current toyota solara back. Definitely no beauty queen.
-
Lexus prices LS600h
They will sell every one they make...for a premium. Personally if I was dishing out 100K+ for a car I'd one something with a little more "attitude" than a glorified Toyota.

Toyota may upgrade Georgetown, KY plant
So they are going to get economic incentives for no more workers? How does that one work?
