2013 Honda Indy Toronto
Yes, I missed out on the smoke show that concluded the Indycar race at this year’s Honda Indy Toronto. At that point, I was hanging out with my Dad in Honda’s hospitality suite, enjoying a cool pint or two. And yes, the Toronto Indy was a month ago. Sorry folks, but I have been crazy […]
Camping World Truck Series test day at Canadian Motorsport Park
I’ve been so busy over at Wheels.ca that I didn’t get around to posting this here. Of course I actually loaded the pics, I just didn’t get around to adding any words. So, a couple of weeks ago, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series folks and a gaggle of media types invaded the brand spanking […]

Review: 2013 Nissan Pathfinder
The mid-1980′s saw the rise of the mid-size off-road capable sport utility vehicle, able to tackle rough terrain while carrying a family of four and their gear. It was a great idea. Credit the Jeep Cherokee, followed by the Toyota 4Runner, and then, in 1986, the Nissan Pathfinder. The recipe? Very simple. Take a Nissan […]
Review: 2013 Scion FR-S
When I was a newbie here at The Garage, I was inspired to launch a series called ‘Forgotten Sporty Cars’, celebrating inexpensive, but fun cars readily available from a plethora of manufacturers from the 1970′s, 80′s, and 90′s.

Review: 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
As a car journalist, I’ve had the benefit of attending the New York Auto Show for the past few years. Obviously, I go during media days, and the car companies really show their swagger. The champagne flows freely at the Bentley booth. Premium import beer and sushi abound at Infiniti, with Sebastian Vettel’s Formula 1 […]
Review: 2013 Nissan Sentra
Wow, for a moment I thought Nissan forgot they built a Sentra. The last Sentra hung around for a staggering six years, which is virtually unheard of in the hotly contested compact car market. The outgoing car, with its Lego-like styling and crude interior was hopelessly outdated. So, it was with great relief Nissan finally […]
