March 29, 2021 by Scotty Reiss Leave a Comment

Bentley Bentayga Hybrid

A plug-in hybrid takes a bit of the ‘guilty’ out of the pleasure of driving this bespoke car. I never thought driving a Bentley was for me. Too luxurious for my kids and dog. Too big for just me alone.  Better for being chauffeured than driving yourself, but I really like driving. Could it really…

2020 Kia Soul

Who wants a “who wore it better” moment on the road? Some times in life it’s hard to express yourself. We don’t make jokes in the airport security line, we keep the facades of our homes demure to preserve property values and when it comes to a car, most buyers are reluctant to go beyond…

6 tips to be a better driver

Now there’s no excuse for being a bad driver. You’ve driven behind this car: it seems as if it wants to curse all it its path, making wide turns, drifting in and out of the lanes, speeding and slowing randomly. I was behind a car like this recently and I had to get away from…
