2019 Chevrolet Equinox Surround View Among Industries Best
Surprised By The 2019 Chevrolet Equinox
Having just come off one week with a Cadillac and another with a Buick, neither of which impressed me to the degree I thought they would, I was a little dismayed to find that I would have a Chevrolet to follow them up. After all, aren’t Buick and Cadillac supposed to be the upscale...
Chrysler Pacifica 35th Anniversary Edition Is Sharp
A Sharp Dressed Minivan
If one had asked me how do you make a minivan more appealing, I might have responded, 'is this a trick question?'

2019 Buick Encore Essence Review
2019 Buick Encore Essence A Compact SUV
I have previously opined on General Motors and it's reorganization when it discontinued the Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Hummer and Saturn Brands. Plus, I admit to wondering why Buick stayed, when the much sexier Pontiac went by the wayside. I understood why Oldsmobile, which was so similar to Buick was largely a duplication of efforts.
