Author: Greg Wiesen
With a BA in English and a love of all things riding on four wheels (or six wheels if we’re talking about a dually, and you know we are), Greg Wiesen took the automotive journalism field by storm thanks to his dynamic writing style and ability to articulate the unintelligible. For more than a decade, Greg has lent his skills to writing about a wide range of topics, but exploring the latest cars, trucks, and SUVs has become his true passion. Now, if he could just convince Lamborghini to send him a Countach in exchange for a review, everything would be perfect.

What’s Going On With the Full-Size SUV Market?
This question didn’t come from my imagination—it’s based on a question that a friend of mine asked me recently when we were discussing different vehicles.

Your Guide to the Infotainment Systems of Full-Size Trucks
For many people, full-size trucks are all about full-size power and performance; they focus on engine sizes, horsepower and torque, and capability in terms of payload and towing capacities.

Jeep Chooses to Play It Safe With BEVs
Some days, it feels like it’s never been harder to know what’s going on with the auto industry.

Effectively, you can […]
Four Vehicles You Can Get for Less Than $20,000 in 2024
Looking at the auto industry these days, it’s easy to see that things have become a lot pricier. Some of the most popular models are also among the most expensive.

What Is Push-Button Start and How Does It Work?
For decades, all cars started the same way: inserting a key into the ignition, twisting it, and starting the engine. More recently, technology has developed to make starting a car as easy as pressing a button. The key is no longer physical but electronic and wireless, enabling it to stay in your pocket so you […]
Five of the Best Used Sedans
There’s no denying that the auto industry has gone wild for SUVs over the last couple of decades while trucks have become increasingly popular for many drivers.

With the 2025 Equinox, Should Chevy Sunset the Blazer?
Looking at the Chevy lineup these days, it’s getting harder to tell if it’s varied and offers great options for a wide range of drivers or if it’s a bit bloated and in need of some streamlining.

The Toyota Tundra Takes Terrific Towing Tech to the Top
As far as I’m concerned, a full-size truck is only as good as its ability to get stuff done—and I mean for both work and play. I know there are plenty of people who like a truck for just getting around town and using it like any other passenger vehicle, but that’s not my style; […]
What Does Jeep’s Electric Future Look Like?
Ready or not, the electrified future of the auto industry is on its way—each year is making this clearer, though there are still plenty of infrastructure issues that need to be figured out to make electric vehicle (EV) ownership everything it should be.

We all know there’s no shortage of SUVs on the market these days. Every company makes them, and typically, they make multiple options in different sizes and styles. With so many models on the road, it can be tricky to try to keep track of everything out there and what they each have to offer. […]
Should Chevy Go High-End With the Colorado?
Right now, Chevy offers five different trims for the midsize Colorado pickup, giving drivers plenty of options to choose from.

If someone’s interested in a Chevy Colorado for […]
Do You Really Need to Check Your Brake Fluid?
That’s a great question with a simple answer: Yes. Beyond this reductive point, however, are a few more things that you should consider when it comes to your brake fluid and making sure your vehicle can safely slow down and stop. When something goes wrong with your brakes, that’s a recipe for disaster, which is […]
My Favorite Controversial and Hilarious Car Model Names
Car model names are an interesting thing. They don’t happen by accident, and these days, there are almost certainly entire teams of people working on choosing a name for each model. The results can vary in terms of impact and quality because this kind of marketing and brand labeling isn’t an exact science. Sometimes, the […]
Can I Tow a Trailer With My SUV?
Many people have no interest in towing and look at used SUVs for sale with an eye toward passenger space, cargo capacity, and interior comfort.

9 Benefits and Drawbacks of Choosing an Older Car
If one thing’s become clear in recent years, it’s that simply existing is becoming more expensive with each passing day.

Is Chevy Trying to Outdo the Mustang Mach-E?
As I’ve looked at the EV market right now, what’s on the horizon, and Chevy’s offerings in particular, this is the question I’ve been left with.

Kia’s Hybrid SUV Lineup
Gone are the days when driving an SUV meant sacrificing fuel efficiency in favor of cargo space, extra rows of passenger seating, or go-anywhere capability.

What Does the Mustang Mach-E Get Right?
For more than a century, Ford has been making some of the most popular vehicles on the road. That’s a legacy you can’t buy or find a shortcut to; it has to be earned. This kind of reputation does two things: it tells us what Ford has focused on in the past and creates a […]
