Whatever your color of politics might be, red or blue, there's little doubt you've been teased by the notion of green cars. Environmentally concerned drivers want the same thing as security hawks: to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels.

When SUVs truly ruled the American new-car roost, only a handful of names could be picked out of the best-seller list: Grand Cherokee, Explorer, and the outliers. A decade or so later, it's crossovers that dominate the sales charts, and this year's list of nominees for TheCarConnection's Best Car to Buy 2011 award reflects the sea change in...
General Motors has issued a recall for 2010 and 2011 models of the Buick Lucerne and the Cadillac DTS. At issue is a wiring flaw, which could result in the loss of power steering -- or worse. The recall applies only to those 13,780 vehicles equipped with V8 engines. According to a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration...
The Basics: The 2011 Lincoln MKX, which is closely related to the 2011 Ford Edge, hasn't been completely redesigned, but almost.

TheCarConnection's Best Car to Buy 2011 award will pick one vehicle from among the 40 new or significantly revised cars, crossovers, SUVs and minivans to hit the road this model year. And for our inaugural award, the list of new sedans...
How, and at what point do you limit when older drivers can get behind the wheel—or decided if they're still okay to drive at all? Those are among many tough questions we face as our driving population ages, and they're among the concerns currently being covered in a National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) forum on older drivers. The NTSB...
Today's minivans may be a smaller part of the automotive world than in the past decade, but the big family haulers are back in a big way for 2011. For TheCarConnection's Best Car to Buy 2011 award, we've included nearly every minivan offered for sale in the U.S. for the new model year. It's no accident: this year, almost all the automakers...
