The folks at Chrysler, who invented the minivan, have two on the market right now. The Chrysler version is the Town and Country, the Dodge version is the Grand Caravan and the Volkswagen version is the Routan.
Oh, yeah, I forgot.
I know a lot of you weren’t thrilled about the auto bailout, but if GM spends all of it as well as they did on the new GMC Terrain, it will be money well spent.
The Terrain is one of three vehicles all built on the same platform.
Some of us are old enough to remember the controversy when Volkswagen finally gave up the classic Beetle. But we’re also young enough to appreciate the VW GTI.
As far as what to call this car, I wish VW would make up its mind.
Let’s keep this introduction quick and easy. If you are looking for a well-built, gorgeous luxury sedan, and you’re ready to buy a Lexus..you might be ready to pay too much.
The KIA Soul is a fun, funky, red, Korean kind of a deal, and I really like this thing. That said, the big question that the folks at KIA are asking with the Soul is, will the kids like it.
Let me start with this declarative statement. The new 2010 Mercedes E350 doesn’t stink…a lot.

When gasoline hit four dollars a gallon, most folks didn’t want to keep feeding their SUV’s. And minivans are selling that well anymore, so what will the family hauler of the future look like? I’m betting it will look a lot like the Toyota Venza.
