2020 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring Review: This Might Be the Most Luxury For Your Money, Ever
One of the luxuries? Not having to stop at the gas station so often. The Honda Accord sedan was my first car crush (I’ve probably mentioned this before). It was the car I wanted more than anything.

9 Things I Loved About The Lexus UX 250h, An Urban Hybrid Crossover
The Lexus UX 250h is designed with the city-dweller in mind. I had the chance to test drive all three Lexus SUVs over the summer: the RX 350 (which also comes in a 3-row longer version), the NX 300, and the smallest, the “urban crossover” in the lineup: the UX 250h. The UX was my…

2020 Toyota Camry XLE Hybrid: Safe, Fun and Cost-efficient 4-door Sedan
Perfect for small families and everyone in between. I’m not new to the Totoya family. I have fond memories of taking trips in my dad’s 90’s Toyota Camry. It was one of the most reliable vehicles he owned when I was growing up. I bet that if you ask most people about a reliable vehicle…
The Toyota Venza Lives Again as an Elegant, Tech-Filled Hybrid AWD SUV
This is not the same Venza you might remember from a *few* years ago. I still see them on the road sometimes. The Toyota Venza, a midsize crossover SUV, smaller than the Highlander and less SUV-ish than the RAV4, it had AWD so it was great for snowy climates. It was a true crossover, not…
