"My week with the Tacoma proved it's decent at hauling both people and stuff, but that it would be easy to exceed the Tacoma's limitations when compared to some of its competitors and larger trucks," says Contributing Editor, Chris Chase. 
Though similar to the Ford Fiesta, the 2011 Mazda2 hatchback is lighter and has a lower base price of $13,995, says Social Media editor, James Bergeron, appealing to those who want "basic transportation at a low price point." 
Luxurious, practical, fun-to-drive, fuel-efficient and eco-friendly, the new diesel-powered Audi A3 TDI is in "a field of one at the moment," says reviewer Gerry Frechette. But he wishes it was available with Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system. 
"A week behind the wheel of a 2010 Infiniti G37x Coupe reminded me of how this Japanese automaker is pretty serious about playing in the Teutonic sandbox, and more specifically, decoding the benchmark BMW 3 Series," says reviewer, Peter Bleakney. 
Based on the compact Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon pickups, the Hummer H3's butch looks hold a certain appeal for the "tattoos, big biceps and bottle-blonde crowd," but its reliability record isn't great, says Contributing Editor, Chris Chase. 
On a recent visit to South Korea, Assistant Editor Jil McIntosh expected nothing but tiny cars. Instead, drivers pilot midsize sedans through the downtown core, making their way along narrow streets with an uncanny ability to negotiate foot and scooter traffic. 
One by one, the favoured Peugeot race cars dropped out of the 24 Heures du Mans endurance race leaving Audi's three diesel-powered Audi R15 plus cars to head for the finish line. Senior Editor Paul Williams was there. 
The MacPherson strut was the brainchild of Earle S. MacPherson, a 1915 University of Illinois engineering graduate. His compact front suspension design first became popular in English Fords of the 50s, such as the Consul and Zephyr.
