2009 Chevrolet Aveo5 LT Review
Sunday, October 11, 2009
Aveo is the Rodney Dangerfield of the Chevrolet lineup. It just "don't get no respect". Here is an entry level car that can be ordered as either a sedan or a five-door hatchback in LS or LT trim with either a five-speed manual gearbox or a four-speed automatic. Yet, you hardly see any ads for the car on TV or in the paper from GM. Local dealers have them, but seem to be able to get better deals on larger cars.

2009 Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid 1500 4x4 Review
Tuesday, September 08, 2009
As a former race car driver and current auto journalist, there are certain vehicles that I do not particularly look forward to trying out.

2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala Pre-Owned
Saturday, May 23, 2009
As vehicle models move through their life cycle and into the used car market, common problems show themselves, owners chat about their experiences, and the good buys tend to separate themselves from the bad. Looking back to the 2000 to 2005 Chevrolet Impala is a perfect example of the above. Though the current generation Impala has been on sale for years, the previous model stands out as a good buy in an affordable, comfortable sedan-- if you know what to look for.

2009 Chevrolet Malibu 2LT Review
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
Malibu is one of those cars that seem to fly just below the radar. Chevrolet keeps improving on the Malibu, even adding a hybrid option. Even without the big dollar ad campaigns, Malibu continues to sell well. In these turbulent times, Malibu may well be one of the ''bread and butter'' cars for Chevrolet as consumers look for the three ''R''s of new car buying; Reasonable size, Reasonable purchase cost and Reasonable operating costs (low maintenance and good fuel economy).

2009 Chevrolet Cobalt XFE Sedan Review
Tuesday, March 24, 2009
If you combine sales of the Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 together, only the Honda Civic outsold them in Canada during the 2008 calendar year. Yet the automotive press keeps ranking the Cobalt at the bottom of the compact-car crowd. Could it be that auto writers are completely devoid of common sense, or does this Chevy fulfill compact sedan buyers' needs? It might be a little of both.
