Stephanie Tanner's iconic "How rude!" line from the 1987 sitcom Full House is a phrase that some Americans use more than they'd like to. According to data by Zippia, while some states are brimming with kindness, others could definitely use a crash course in basic manners.

When you need a 30-pack of toilet paper or the biggest bottle of olive oil you’ve ever seen, Costco is the place to find it. But beyond the bulk, they’ve got alcohol, and lots of it. Costco sells top-shelf brands, as well as their in-house Kirkland Signature brand of spirits and wine, and it’s tough to find better prices.

Looking at traffic fatalities and road danger data can paint a frightening picture of America’s drivers, but while many states’ roads have become more dangerous after the pandemic, the data shows that some have done a better job than others at keeping drivers safe. Home Solutions, a data provider for homeowners and others, recently ranked states based on their rough road scores, the number of fatalities per 100,000 licensed drivers, and more. Its study showed that states with the most road deaths outpace those with the least by a large margin, though the deadliest states often don’t have the worst road danger scores.

States with the most road deaths and highest 'road danger scores' in the country

Complaining about the roads and weather have become pastimes for many people in America, but some drivers have a legitimate reason for all the bellyaching. Home Solutions’ recent study focused on road safety, calculating the percentage of rough roads, annual miles driven, and fatal injuries across all 50 states. The rough road numbers won’t be surprising for people who live in the worst states, but they’re eye-opening for everyone else.

Sold on the sleek looks and electronic wizardry of the 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ but have zero interest in going electric? Well, Cadillac has confirmed today what we've long suspected: You can get most of those goodies on the 2025 Escalade and Escalade-V without making the switch from gasoline. Diesel fans, I'm afraid, will be missing out on the party for 2025. The Standard Escalade retains the 420-horsepower 6.2L-liter V8 and the V-Series returns with its supercharged 682, but the light-duty six-cylinder oil burner is nowhere to be found on the spec sheet.

The 2026 Honda Passport is coming soon, and Honda just dropped its first teaser for the new SUV. Specifically, Honda is teasing the off-road-oriented Trailsport model. From the teaser (video above, photos further below), it sure looks like Honda is aiming for a more aggressive and rugged design than the current Passport that’s more of a smaller Pilot. This new one is already starting to latch onto its own identity with the amber-colored daytime running lights and hexagonal openings across the high-mounted grille – there’s even a “Trailsport” logo contained within one of the grille openings. The “PASSPORT” spelled out in the grille is equally rugged in character as its squared-off jowls in the silhouette. And lastly, this Passport appears to have a fairly prominent hood opening of sorts that’s hard to make much of for the time being.
