And parking a car is easier than ever too, with many models coming equipped with...
Ford Recalls are Worse Than We Feared
Recently, the good ol’ Ford Motor Company issued a recall on more than 700,000 vehicles here in the US for a fairly simple but pretty valid reason: the backup cameras can show distorted images or simply go dark. Once again, for the people in the back: the backup cameras, which have one job, showing you what’s behind you in...

It has long been known that teachers enjoy one of the cushiest jobs in the world. They work 8-9 months out of the year and rake in full-time salaries that in some states can approach $100,000.

I Hate the Chevy Trax, and You Should Too!
Ladies and gentlemen, if it pleases this eminent council, I’d like to present you now with a less-than-comprehensive, but no-less compelling argument regarding the sheer lack of quality one might find throughout the rancid, mechanical carcass of the 2021 Chevy Trax. I do not wish to waste the time of this hallowed institution, nor that of the notable and...
It’s A Car! No, It’s A She-Shed!
What if we took two perfectly innocent and respectable SUVs, the 2020 Chevy Equinox vs 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe, and assigned them even more important jobs than they already have? By important jobs, I mean morphing into more than just transportation. I mean, we’re dropping roughly $30k for a friggin’ SUV. Should it not work for us and our...
