I shouldn't have liked this truck as much as I did. In the weeks that have passed since I drove around this black beauty I've caught myself eyeing its brothers and sisters on the roads and sending a knowing wink in the direction of their drivers. We now share a secret. We all know what you wouldn't imagine: Behind the intimidating exterior of this rugged GMC Terrain Denali is a truck that's fun to drive. And it's not just the fact that you're up good and high when you're doing it. It's the way it feels from the moment you... More »

(Photo credit: Wikipedia)As much as I hate to admit it, there's no denying it. The latest dumping of snow in Eastern Ontario is a reminder: The snow is out there. Those of us who've been getting off lightly so far, can't take that for granted either. You never know which morning you're going to wake up to a winter wonderland or car-skating rink outside. And when it hits, those of us who like to procrastinate and pretend that we're still on yearlong around the world trips in tropical destinations are going to pay the price. Don't be a Heather.

I love driving a car. When I turned 16 I could not wait to get my drivers licence. I always knew independence was important and being able to drive and own my own car was at the top of my to do list.

So when our friends at Chevrolet asked me to test drive the not yet released new 2013 Chevy Trax, I was thrilled.Is it a car or is it a SUV?... More »
I've been curious about the Honda Pilot for years. It's one of those vehicles that isn't particularly beautiful in a typical sexy, suv sense but yet seems to have a rugged, powerful look that turns heads. And then I started to notice that whenever I saw one in an accident, no matter how bad the other car looked (fender bender to completely totalled) the Pilot always looked like it had just been out for a walk in the park. (Likely due to its rigid uni-body frame.) As a mom often left to drive the kids to and from various events,... More »
I'm not a superficial woman. You're likely to bump into me with my hair in a ponytail, no makeup on and sneakers casually on my feet in places like the mall, at the grocery store and in the school yard. But just because I'm not a fussy girl, doesn't mean I don't like a fancy ride. There's something about a pretty car that I really, really like. And from the moment I laid eyes on the white Mazda CX-9 I was smitten. The shape and size of the vehicle are instantly appealing. Not too big, Not too small. The right... More »
