2009 Audi Q5

Jun 03 2009

The Q5 broke my heart and left me crying on the side of the road. Not through any fault of its own, only because the people at Audi are mean and they wouldn’t let me keep it.


2009 Toyota RAV4

Apr 23 2009

What pushes the 2009 Toyota RAV4 into chick-car territory is the fact that the SUV can be described as “cute” or “small.” Instantly, all masculine street cred is kicked to the adorable pink curb of chick-cardom.


2009 Chevrolet Traverse

Apr 20 2009

Just when you thought Detroit was being overrun by men in pinstriped suits, along comes Sue Wilson, the vehicle line director for the 2009 Chevrolet Traverse. A modern mom of four, Sue knows what we want in a car, and she’s delivered (mostly).


2009 Subaru Tribeca Limited

Mar 19 2009

With a price tag on my test car of $36,081, the Tribeca left me feeling like I should get more for the money. This made me wonder why I should consider the Tribeca over its family-mobile competitors.


2009 Toyota Venza

Feb 05 2009

The Toyota Venza was quiet, powerful, well-planned and didn’t scream mommy-mobile; it just might be my next new car—if I ever buy another car, that is. I fell in love with the Venza. I’d be lying if I said that, when the time came to let it go, I did so with a dry eye.


2009 Buick Enclave

Feb 02 2009

The oh-so-beautiful 2009 Buick Enclave has inspired me to create a new television series, “Extreme Makeover: Car Edition.” I’d love for some hunky host to relay my automotive sob-story to the masses, followed by the ultimate pulverization of my eight-year-old, 150,000-mile “piece.” At the end of the show, the bright, shiny Enclave would sit in my garage!


2009 Mazda CX-7

Jan 07 2009

The Mazda CX-7 got us out of our snowy driveway and onto our equally snow-covered road in seconds – a total cinch. There wasn’t a slip, slide or swivel; we just drove straight onto the road as if the driveway were completely clear.


2008 Infiniti EX35

Dec 26 2008

The 2008 Infiniti EX35 AWD wants to get up and go; it’s one of the zippiest cars I’ve driven in recent memory. Oh, how I enjoyed driving this car, but it wasn’t meant to be between us. For someone like me who has wee children, there just wasn’t enough room. How rude!


2009 Chevrolet Traverse LT

Dec 18 2008

Before I even test-drove the 2009 Chevrolet Traverse, I was already a bit of a fangirl of the Traverse’s “raining shoes” commercial. I’ve had the raining shoe dream, and each time I see that commercial I just smile. So kind of like Jerry Maguire, Chevy “had me at hello” with the Traverse’s marketing campaign


2008 Mitsubishi Outlander

Dec 08 2008

The 2008 Mitsubishi Outlander is perfect for young adults. You know, the people who are on the verge of beginning their married and familial lives, but are still clutching to their coolness for all it’s worth. I think the Outlander would work for them, but it wasn’t a good fit for my family, especially my kids.
