A car can be like the third wheel in a relationship. When does the new girlfriend get to drive it? Would you rather spend your Sunday cruising the highways or snuggling with the boyfriend? The Bermuda love triangle that sits between two lovers and one car has wrecked more than a few marriages. According to a new survey from AutoTrader, that's...
We're rounding the corner on our time with the 2013 Ram 1500. And while we prep our final posts--a towing exercise or two, some comparisons with a well-known competitor or two--we're taking a look back at what we wrote about the Ram earlier this year. Over the past 30 days, our take on the Ram 1500 hasn't budged much. That's a point or three in...
Once upon a time, the thought of leasing a vehicle was a foreign concept to new-car shoppers. "Why rent when you can own?", our grandparents said. But oh, how things change. According to Experian Automotive, leased vehicles now make up a significant chunk of dealership business -- and in fact, that chunk is the biggest it's ever been. During the...
Today at The Car Connection, Chevrolet priced the new 2014 SS sports sedan, and Chrysler pushed back when NHTSA recommended a massive Jeep recall.

Should you buy a 2001-2003 Toyota Prius?...
To a certain kind of automotive enthusiast, Audi Quattro is one thing first and foremost: a rally-bred, high-performance four-wheel-drive performance car from the 1980s—and a performance icon to this day.

Do some model years of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Liberty pose a higher fire risk to their occupants in a crash? And is it because of a safety-related defect? The federal government alleges that the answers to both questions are yes; but in a rare, public pushback to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Chrysler Group...
Full-size pickup trucks haven't been left behind in the rush to fuel efficiency. The Ram 1500 now trumps them all, at least on V-6 models, with a new combination that's rated by the EPA with the best gas mileage of any big truck you can buy today. That's in addition to the Ram 1500's layers of refinement and sophistication, which also get a boost...
Fresh off its Daytona debut, and a couple of years past its previous incarnation as the Pontiac G8, the 2014 Chevy SS has been priced from a rousing $44,470. The price for the rear-drive, V-8-powered sport sedan includes a $995 destination charge, but doesn't yet include the anticipated gas-guzzler charge, which hasn't been calculated yet by the...
