QOTD: Needing Your Fix
Picture this: You're driving on a road trip. You're making good time, rocking some good tunes, enjoying the drive ... then you get sleepy. Or hungry. Or you need to take care of nature or fill the gas tank and you figure you might as well snag some sustenance or caffeine while you're stopped.
QOTD: Situational Bad Driving
On the road this morning, I encountered a motorist who couldn't decide whether to turn left onto a side street or right into a parking lot. They eventually figured out where they needed to go (right) but not before delaying those of us behind them.
QOTD: Missing AM Radio?
I am testing an EV this week -- one of several EVs that doesn't have AM radio.
I gotta say I miss it.
QOTD: Best/Most Famous Roads You've Driven
I was chatting with my ladyfriend last night and the conversation turned to famous roads, and I noted that thanks in part to this job, I've driven quite a few.
QOTD: What Car Needs a Manual?
Earlier this morning I sent a Toyota Supra with a stickshift back to the press fleet.
QOTD: How Do You Charge Your EV?
Yesterday we noted that charging EVs in public, at least in the UK, costs more than charging EVs via home chargers.
Today, we're wondering -- how do you charge your EV?
QOTD: Making an Entrance
You may have noticed one of the pictures I added to Mr. Guy's Dodge Challenger 170 story after the car's unveiling was of the vehicle being airlifted onto the Las Vegas Motor Speedway dragstrip via helicopter.
You'd have seen the whole production if you watched the Roadkill livestream.
QOTD: Last Call
I am once again working from a hotel room -- this time in Las Vegas -- in advance of attending a press event.
This time, I am here to see what Dodge has on hand to send off its muscle cars in style.
QOTD: Feeling Green
Today is St. Patrick's Day. I'm wearing a green t-shirt that mixes the Irish and Chicago flags together*, there's corned beef in my crock pot, and Guinness in my fridge for later. Meanwhile, Fox News auto writer Gary Gastelu has asked the most relevant question.
QOTD: AI in Cars?
GM CEO Mary Barra was talking AI on Fox Business the other day, though she and GM vice president Scott Miller didn't say much in the way of specifics, mostly referencing things like using AI as a voice assistant or for syncing a driver's calendar to the car.
QOTD: To Turn, or Not to Turn?
Many press programs allow us keyboard warriors to wheel whatever car we're testing on some twisty two-lane road that has almost nothing in the way of passing zones. Today's drive of the new Dodge Hornet was no exception.
These roads do, however, often have turnouts.
QOTD: Ask Dodge About The Hornet
I am sitting in a hotel in Asheville, North Carolina, wondering why the cold weather followed me from Chicago.
I'm here to drive the Dodge Hornet.
QOTD: Would You Attend a Naked Car Show?
An outfit called the Valley View Recreation Club is hosting a nude car show in Cambridge, Wisconsin, this summer.
Planned for August 10th through August 13th, 2023, the show will be taking place at a nudist campground. Cambridge, for those wondering, is about 20 miles east of Madison.
QOTD: Feeling Satisfied?
We've featured the winners and losers of the J.D. Power survey that involved electric vehicles. I have a broader question based on these posts.
