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.


2009 Acura RDX

Nov 14 2008

One of the more surprising things about motherhood is how two beings, sprung from the same font, can be so entirely different. They might look alike, but that’s as far as the resemblance goes. This is also true for Acura’s crossover siblings.


2009 Nissan Murano LE

Oct 20 2008

Both inside and out, the 2009 Murano is classy and sophisticated without being pretentious. I thoroughly enjoyed driving this car; the Murano’s ride is smooth and agile. There’s plenty of power behind the gas pedal, which provides that reassuring feeling we all enjoy during road trips.


2008 Lexus RX 400h

Oct 17 2008

The ’08 RX 400h is a luxury SUV hybrid that’s easy to drive and easy on the eyes. Sadly, this pricey little SUV seems a bit dated. The RX series hasn’t changed that much since it was introduced for the 1999 model year. That doesn’t mean it’s no good, it’s just not exactly cutting-edge. 


2009 Ford Flex

Aug 21 2008

2009 Ford Flex

There are a few things that people either really like or really dislike: black licorice, “Teletubbies,” the president … oh, never mind that, but the Ford Flex seems to fit into this category as well.


2009 Volkswagen Tiguan

Aug 18 2008

2009 Volkswagen Tiguan

I’m not a flashy person, so the idea of quiet elegance — having all the luxury I need without bragging about it — is why I love the Tiguan, Volkswagen’s new compact crossover.


2009 Nissan Murano

May 16 2008

2009 Nissan Murano

In the interest of full disclosure, I should let you know that I own a 2006 Nissan Murano. It’s sporty and has black leather seats, and those two things alone make it feel like a very different vehicle from the 2009 I recently tested. It’s almost as if the old Murano went and had a “procedure” or two done.


2008 Mazda CX-7

May 01 2008

Mazda CX-7

I have a pair of comfy, weathered, totally fashionable Frye boots that I consider the most versatile accessory in my closet. After driving it for a few days, I decided the 2008 Mazda CX-7 is just like these favorite boots. It’s practical, stylish and very versatile.
