The Blazer name goes back over 50 years for Chevrolet. The first Blazers were modified four-wheel drive full-size pickup trucks that had removable hardtops over the bed area. In the 1980s, the company added the compact S-10 Blazers, which ended production in 2012. Chevrolet revived the Blazer name in 2019 with a somewhat lackluster crossover SUV to compete in the two-row midsize segment.
                That crossover was the basis for the Blazer EV, which launched in 2023. The all-electric Blazer is clearly the best of the...

There is no doubt that the future is going to be all-electric, and just about every automaker out there is preparing to offer a full all-electric lineup before 2035. This means that the next few years will bring a lot of new electric vehicles and that pretty soon new gas-powered cars are going to be very rare. But, as it is the case these days, not all the future electric cars are exciting, and only some of them make us really want to drive one. Be it Porsche’s first all-electric sports car, or the electric Jeep Wrangler, it’s purposeful cars like that have our interest, and we can’t wait to see what they are capable of.

Full-size luxury convertibles are scarce in today's automotive landscape, but Cadillac may be reviving the segment with the gorgeous Sollei, an all-electric concept that celebrates the automaker's legacy of high-end convertibles. Cadillac says the design pushes the envelope of "future bespoke commissions," which suggests the Sollei may make it to production - perhaps as a bespoke Spectre rival built in limited numbers. Sollei is a portmanteau of sun (Sol) and leisure (Lei), which is what this vehicle is all about.

Toyota has issued a major recall of its twin-turbocharged V-6 engines powering the 2022 and 2023 Tundra pickup trucks and Lexus LX SUVs. Engines produced between late 2021 and early 2023 might have machining debris left in the engine; causing engine knocks or, worse cases, a spun bearing and complete engine stall. At first, Toyota was unsure how many engines were contaminated, but now, months later, the solution is to replace more than 100,000 engines.

Living in the area of Wood Dale, I am always on the hunt to try somewhere local and support them. I remember trying Elio Pizza several years ago and I was not really impressed with the food.
