On June 28, 1969, gays, lesbians, and their transgendered friends took to the streets of New York, protesting the harassment they'd experienced at the hands of the city's police force. The violence -- known now as the Stonewall Riots -- lasted for several days and altered the way that America viewed its LGBT neighbors. Forty-three years down the...
The surface transportation bill that's been slowly and not-so-surely winding its way through both houses of Congress has been called many things. Notably, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood called the House version "the worst transportation bill I’ve ever seen during 35 years of public service". To date, two versions of the legislation have...
Today at High Gear Media, we previewed the 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek and Mazda is going racing with its new diesel engine. McLaren revealed a power upgrade to the MP4-12C and Nissan released new lease pricing for the 2012 Leaf. All this and more in today's car news, right here on The Car Connection. We performed the Fido test on our six-month road...
The Volvo C70 is a mid-size luxury convertible model. More luxurious and sporty than the Toyota Solara or Chrysler Sebring, the C70 slots between those models and sportier models like the BMW 3-Series Convertible and new Lexus IS C. Its closest rivals include the Saab 9-3, Audi A4 Cabriolet, and Volkswagen Eos. The front-wheel-drive C70 was first...
In one light, the new 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek is little more than a lightly tweaked Impreza compact hatchback. But looked at another way, the new XV Crosstrek is the feisty little Japanese carmaker doing what it does best: taking advantage of its all-wheel drive and U.S. drivers' desire for upright, crossover vehicles to create a new entry in a...
It took only a couple of weekends in our six-month road test 2012 Hyundai Veloster to glean that this small car could work surprisingly well for some city-dwelling dog owners. Yes, that's a bit of a surprise—especially considering its rakish, low-slung coupe profile. Usually, if you want a rather sporty coupe but have a dog, something has to...
May’s overall vehicle sales are perhaps best summed up by author Charles Dickens, who once penned, “it was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” For Chrysler, the former is true, while for Mitsubishi that latter applies. Breaking sales down by individual models, some cars enjoyed a very good month, while others (many...
