The Roads Aren’t Always Perfect
When you head out on the roads and enjoy the drive you’re looking for it makes sense to know that the car you’re driving can handle the weather and the obstacles you’re going to find on the road. As much as we would all love to have perfect driving conditions to enjoy the road all the time, that’s never the case. Thankfully, most automakers have thought of that and spend some time testing their vehicles in less than perfect conditions to make sure you can have the drive you need when you head out on the road, regardless of the conditions you’ll find.
A Massive Trend in the Automotive Market
It wasn’t too long ago that electric cars were only offered as underpowered and tiny vehicles that required a massive amount of compromise on your part in order to drive a vehicle that could be plugged in.
Once Tesla arrived on the scene and EV models began to develop into powerful and sexy models we’ve seen other brands build EVs and begin to see the light of offering these models as ones everyone would want to drive. With that in mind, here are several vehicles that we hope will eventually become EVs for the drive we want to enjoy:

The SUV world has changed to the point that now we have more speed in this class and less utility, which means you should look at this list.
Contenders are Getting Lined Up
Automakers love to advertise their vehicles with the awards they earn to show off what the vehicle has been recognized for. As we head closer to the official beginning of the new 2018 model year the contenders for one of the most prestigious awards have begun to line up and become available to be judged. One of the first awards to be offered for this new model year is the North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year. These awards see a large number of vehicles vying for recognition and the right to take to the screen and show off this trophy during commercials.
How Can You Have Porsche Performance on a Bargain Budget?
The name of Porsche brings about a great deal of prestige, admiration and desire.

Volkswagen, Say it Isn’t So
While it’s not real surprise that the Volkswagen diesel scandal will have an adverse effect on the vehicles they produce, this financial disaster for the brand is actually going to affect more of Volkswagen Group that first was announced. The fact that Volkswagen Group is comprised of twelve different brands gives it a massive reach and the ability to pool money when needed to ensure these brands are able to stay active and vibrant in the marketplace. When news of this scandal broke, Volkswagen Group began to figure out where they could get the money from to handle the scandal that was in front of them with an original estimate of nearly $46 billion that would be needed to handle the costs.
NAIA Brings the Heat
The North American International Auto Show, also known as the Detroit Auto Show brings us a great menu of new cars for us to admire and desire. This show is the beginning each year of a full year of discussions when it comes to the concept models as much as for those that are deemed ready for production for the next model year. What we say this year in Detroit gave us a look at some cars that are ready to be enjoyed and some exceptional new looks that should show up with the technology we want to see and enjoy.

What to Consider When Porsche Shopping
Most of us don’t have the kind of cash a new Porsche 911 calls for nor do we have the ability to buy a 991 that, even though it’s a used model, will still call for a large sum of cash. You could look to the old 997 model and still have to part ways with over $30,000 and some of the older 911 models that are basically junked out will cost you more than $34,000 just to tow them away. This makes shopping for a great Porsche nearly an impossibility for those of us just looking for a fun sports car for the weekends at a great price, unless of course you consider the 996.
