    Infinity 2.0L VC-Turbo

    Never buy a vehicle that requires premium, unless it is a sports car. Not worth the extra $0.50/gal.

    Ford vs Chevy

    Both my Ford and GM cars have been lame. But each firm makes some very good products. But lately we have been buying Toyotas, Subarus and Hondas.

    Which Type of Eye Glasses You Wear?

    I have high index (1.74) progressives with the reading area moved to the very bottom... a big improvement over the thicker 1.67 progressives I had prior to these. I use a large (40") 4K monitor that I use that is around 3 ft away at my desk...not really reading distance. I also have set of...

    Now that we will all be huddle up at home

    I lost 3 lbs in the last 10 days, working out a lot (outside mostly, since the gym is closed). My wife and I are finally cleaning out the house too. We were geared up for March Madness, and other TV is really boring anyway. Lots of small projects to complete. She expects all of her clinics to be...

    What did you pay? The only thing I didn't like about those vehicles was the $400 transmission service. What is your MPG with the new software?

    Looking into a Prius

    I would look at a Gen4 simply because they are a lot safer. The Gen 2/3 are pretty fragile in an accident, and the Gen 2's are old enough that you might be looking at a new battery pack. The 2016 models are 4 years old now so you should be able to get a decent deal. I would look for a Gen4 Prius...

    New Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, or Subaru Ascent?

    All modern cars have DI engines, and most have Turbos. There is nothing inherently bad or unreliable about modern turbos, but they are going to be more expensive to repair. All are good vehicles. The Ascent has a great interior and ride ; best of the bunch. AWD is superior , Subaru CVT is fine...

    2016-17 Audi Q5 2.0T AWD

    Average reliability but very expensive to fix. Engine cooling issues. Nothing is cheap on an Audi, but you have a few years of warranty left.
