Tesla may be able to drive itself but apparently, its windows may pinch. For a car that allows you to drive with no hands on the wheel considering the car does that for you, the luxury vehicle still needs to work on its windows. After spotting a flaw, Tesla has recalled 1.1 million cars with …

My go-to ride when I’m on vacay has always been Uber. I’ve never felt unsafe. Well, I mean, I was a little leary when I first rode in one, but it was fine. BUT, Uber just released their safety data from 2020, and it’s downright scary! It has me rethinking the whole “shared ride” thing. …
If you live along the East Coast of the United States, listen up!! I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but gas prices have been out. of. control. I know it is more expensive in certain locations, but I freak out when I see the gas $$ go up over $5 a gallon. That’s why I …
What in the actual voodoo magic is going on here? Detroit is going to be the first city in the United States with a — get this — Wireless EV-Charging Road. Can you wrap your head around what that means? It means that electric cars can drive along this road, and get charged without plugging …
If you have summer plans to catch a plane, you might want to listen up. American Airlines is stopping service to 4 cities in its flying arsenal come September 7th. Like SO many other businesses, they are having a hard time getting people to work. In this case, it’s pilots. There aren’t pilots available to …
Gas prices are freaking ridiculous right now. Luckily, where I live isn’t seeing the crazy high West Coast gas prices — yet. The people in Phoenix, Arizona are experiencing gas prices that average around $5.68 a gallon, and I can’t even. There is one gas station, however, in the Phoenix area, that is helping out …
Airless car tires? That sounds like some futuristic voodoo magic, but I’d be the first in line to stick those puppies on my car if the situation presented itself! I’ve had the pleasure of getting stuck on the side of the highway THRICE in the last month because of flat tires. Two times because of …
Ugh. The price of gas. I can’t. With the amount of money I’m spending per week to do normal things like go to work and go to the grocery store, I have nothing left for frivolities — like getting my hair done. It’s INSANITY. I have seriously been toying with the idea of moving to …
Move over Tesla, Jeeps are going electric. Thanks to Stellantis’s recent announcement about Jeep’s latest project, rumors of the new vehicle’s name might even be more creative than Jeep’s first ever electric SUV. Jeep’s electric SUV packs the first purely battery-electric vehicle, sleek headlights, crisp side mirrors, the classic box shape and of course, the …
We are headed straight into the summer of traveling hell. Strap on that seatbelt, and hold on tight. It’s the last few weeks of school for the kids, and they’ve damn near turned into feral cats. They are crazy excited about being free for summer break. And, quite honestly, we have that intoxicating “it’s about …
There is a company that will choose your vacation destination for you — down to the last detail — and I’m about to book my next vacay through them! I love vacation time, but it’s so hard choosing somewhere to go! There are so many cool places, choosing just one feels kinda like I’m cheating …

This Tesla owner couldn’t get the battery in his car to work, so he decided to just blow it up — the whole car!! Teslas can be great cars. They come with TONS of features — they are basically an iPad on wheels — and they are pretty reasonably priced. But they also come with …
Dodge, the car company known for its muscle cars, including my favorite — the Challenger — is hiring for what some might consider a dream job. They are calling the position the “Chief Donut Maker,” but it has nothing at all to do with Krispy Kreme or Dunkin’ Donuts, as you might be thinking. When …
Ford has taken the retro craze to a whole new level by introducing us to the F-100 Eluminator, but just wait until you hear about it. This car is straight out of the 1970s — 1978 to be exact — but there is one major upgrade. It’s ELECTRIC!! Gah!! I love it!! Based on a …
It is time to take a trip to Tennessee. Check this out!! Tennessee — one of my FAVORITE states in all of the U.S. — wants to entice more people to visit, and they are being more generous about it than ever. There is a new program, put on by Governor Bill Lee and Brad …
There is a guy in South Carolina who fixes up old broken down cars that would otherwise be junk cars, and then gives them to people who desperately need the transportation. Eliot Middleton is a local restaurant owner — Ribs and Barbecue *YUM* — but he is also a part-time mechanic on the side. He …
There is a sun shade for your car that actually goes OVER the window, keeping not only the sun at bay, but keeping those pesky mosquitos out! I love riding in the car with my windows down on a nice warm day — but it’s usually nearly impossible. Why? We have those suction-cup, stick on …
You know that little button on your car’s air conditioner — the one that can recirculate the air inside your car? Did you know there is actually a use for it — a specific time when you are supposed to use it? It is up near ninety degrees outside at my house today — is …
It wasn’t too long ago that it was cool to have a dancing hula girl or a waving dog bobblehead on your dashboard. But, the times they are a changing — and now the NEW cool thing is to have a “carden” inside your vehicle, front-and-center for all to see and admire. A “carden” is …
Dear Sweet Pandemic, haven’t we been through enough, already? You’ve already shut down half the world, closed our favorite theme parks, kept us at home for months, and made masks a viable accessory choice. Now, the pandemic may be the source of a looming gas shortage this summer, and that puts a huge crimp in …
There are two types of people in this world: Those who fill their car with gas every time they get in it, and those who ride that gas light just as close to completely empty as they can. I am in the latter group. I have often prayed all the way to the gas station, …
I’m not going to lie, this news scares me a little. There is a company called Waymo, and they deal in fully automated, robo, driverless taxis. Now, what kind of voodoo witchcraft is that? I mean, I know Tesla has the driverless car, but those are few and far between. Waymo is an actual taxi …
I love the fact that Waze has a constantly changing plethora of voices that can help you navigate your way around town. The last special voice assistant I used on Waze was Cookie Monster, and it was hilarious. My kids got the biggest kick out of having the big blue monster telling us to turn …
I’m all about some social distancing, but if I don’t get out of this house, I’m going to go crazy. As long as I’m looking for socially distanced vacation location, it may as well be Go Big Or Go Home, AMIRITE?!? I have scoured the internet to find some of the coolest spots where you …
For the past two weeks, I have wanted to take a road trip to the beach. Like I mean, I have REALLY wanted to grab up my little family, pack up the car, and get out of these four walls that we’ve been stuck in for 4 months. I am still too leary to stay …
We have been stuck in our houses for the last four months. I don’t know about you, but I’m about to go stir crazy. I want to take a vacation. ANY vacation will do. A nice road trip somewhere other than my house would be WONDERFUL. I’m so paranoid, though. How do you make sure …
Jeeps apparently all have “Easter Eggs,” and I have become obsessed! I first became aware of this fun phenomenon on — where else — TikTok. It all started when @jackiefoster40 found his first Easter Egg on his Jeep — a spider by the gas tank. @jackiefoster40 ?JEEP WAS REALING TRYING TO GET ME.???? ##fyp ##jeepsoftiktok …
Slug Bug!! Did you ever play that game? When you see a Volkswagen Beetle driving down the road, you turn to whoever is next to you, punch them in the arm, and yell, “SLUG BUG!” I’m not sure if the Slug Bug rules still apply to these GENIUS scooters, made by walter_werks on Instagram. I …
Like any parent, I was so very worried about car-safety when it was time to bring home our son. Now, I’m facing the idea of bringing home baby #3 and I need a refresher on How to Kidproof Your Car. Thank goodness I have my son to help me out. Use the right safety equipment for …

Normally, I’m so easily derailed it’s not even funny. But today–in 30-Minutes, I was able to accomplish 15-Super Critical Tasks! It was a Multitasking Marathon! There I was, trying …
It’s Christmas, baby and that means I get to buy presents for the totally amazing man in my life. He loves video games, and everyone is talking about Forza Motorsport 5 for the Xbox One. It’s supposed to be the greatest thing in racing since actually getting into a car and driving it around a …
I have driven a lot of cars, and I don’t always love the smaller ones… I am not a huge fan of feeling cramped in a car, but the Kia Forte isn’t like that. It’s like driving a big ‘ol SUV when you sit in the driver’s seat it’s so roomy! I also totally geeked …
I drive all sorts of cars, but I must admit that I’ve never driven a Mitsubishi before. So I was kind of nervous when they asked me to drive one. I mean what if I didn’t like it? But, I didn’t have anything to worry about because the Mitsubishi Lancer is fun to drive, and …
As many of you know… I sometimes get to drive cars and check them out. This is fun for me because my car is like a bajillion years old and when I get to drive new cars they do all sorts of fancy things like talk to me (um, seriously, the Kia Optima greets me …
Recently, I had the opportunity to drive the Mazda 3. First off let me say this isn’t just any small car. This thing has the zoom zoom. I was a little worried about the pick-up in the car. Would it really go fast, was I going to mind driving it on and off the …
See, the thing is, I drive a lot of vehicles. It’s part of the whole “being a blogger who likes to talk about super cool cars” gig. But none of them have ever actually felt like me– until I drove a Kia Sportage. The Kia Sportage is a good looking car. It’s the car …
So, the other day I finally learned why you should pay for satellite radio. Because it’s just better. Because you have all the choices in the world, and because it sounds great. At least it sounds great in the Kia Sorento, that’s for sure. Also, sometimes the best song in the entire world comes on. …
Okay, so Chevrolet gave us a hundred bucks to spend on groceries so we could show you all the trunk space in the Malibu. So, naturally, I spent it all on soda… Then I made a stop motion video. If you love me you will comment and tell everyone you know, because this took me …
Something kind of cool is going on this month. I’ve been picked as a Malibu Mom. Basically, Chevrolet is giving me a Malibu to drive around for a month and I have to go on secret missions. We were asked to make a video biography of ourselves. Maybe you remember me freaking out about it …
One of the coolest things about being a writer is that you have to have crazy fun life experiences in the name of research. So, if someone from Chevrolet contacts you and asks if you’d like to drive their cars to Oklahoma and eat fried pies, you have no choice but to say yes. So …
