There’s a 4 or 5 inch gap of side window not protected by the visor where the sun seems to eternally linger. It must be a conspiracy! Don’t worry, I’ve figured out how to fix the problem; simply don’t drive north between the hours of 3:00 pm and sunset.
A poll of my mom peers revealed a gradient of thoughts about “VOLVO” such as safe, family-friendly, expensive, tree-hugging, boxy, boring, gutless and a few straggling remarks about the female anatomy. That’s exactly what Volvo’s going for; maybe not the boring and gutless part, but safety for sure.
When I pick my mother up for Sunday brunch in this car she exclaims, “Wow, what a beauty!” This is one of the few things we’ve agreed upon. However, my brother (barely 20 years old) said, “That’s a Mercedes? It looks more like a Pontiac.” Ouch! I won’t tell Mercedes he said that!
I find myself yearning for mulled apple cider and pumpkin muffins. It must be fall; time for some scenic aspen viewing and road testing the Ford Explorer through the Rocky Mountain National Park.
Does anyone really need to spend this much money on a gas guzzler that barely fits in an average parking space? After driving it for a week I can say with some certainty that I now see the appeal. I can drive this car to the PTA, or fit right into a rap video. You can’t say that about a station wagon.
The 2006 B9 Tribeca is less “crunchy granola Boulderite” and more “crunchy granola Boulderite has grown up, moved to a trendy city, secured a profession and has a growing family”. This car is equally comfortable in the carpool lane and on a rare child-free date night with my husband.
I wonder if the automotive journalists who wrote those other Pilot reviews ever put children in the Pilot. Since Honda claims that “The Pilot continues to lead the sport utility segment as the ultimate SUV for family adventure” it would be logical to test it in real life with a real family.
Young women today work hard, whether it’s at an office or as full-time moms. We act as chauffeurs, cooks, counselors, nurses, housekeepers, and more (in my instance, I have to give my husband credit for his amazing cleaning skills). We deserve to get into a car that feels just as good as putting on our favorite pair of jeans. The Ford Freestyle does it for me.
You might be wondering what’s with the full-sized Lego model of the 2005 Volvo XC90? Volvo has paired with LegoLand to help teach young children the importance of safe driving. What a great idea! How can I get my kids involved in that? Maybe if we start now (at ages 2 and 4) we can avoid the all-too-common “invincible new driver” syndrome when they turn 16.
Infiniti’s tagline for the QX56 is “Luxury on a Grand Scale.” To me that conjures up images of sailing a yacht through the warm Mediterranean, being served champagne and caviar by the deck boy. Can the Infiniti QX56 inject luxury into my real life where dining on peanut butter and honey is a more realistic expectation?
