On The Road 6/25: 2021 Lincoln Corsair AWD Reserve
By Peter Perrotta I must preface this week’s review by telling a funny story. Way back when, in my college days at Syracuse University – Go Orange! – I purchased a used Lincoln Continental from one of my brother’s friends. It was a beautiful, big cruiser type sedan with a fantastic upgraded sound system. Late…

On The Road 6/18: 2021 GMC Yukon Denali 4WD
By Peter Perrotta When I first looked at this week’s review vehicle, a diesel engine 2021 GMC Yukon Denali 4WD, it immediately reminded me of my selling days at the Mercedes dealership. Back then – 2015 – it was more than obvious to most of the sales associates that one of the best overall value…

On The Road 6/11: 2022 Kia Carnival SX Prestige
By Peter Perrotta I pulled into my local Wawa convenience store recently driving this week’s review vehicle. I parked in one of those spots that’s supposedly reserved for curbside pickup customers only.

On the Road: 2022 Infiniti QX55 Sensory AWD
By Peter Perrotta The automotive landscape is literally littered with crossover models these days. Every manufacturer has at lease two or three or even four crossovers in their lineups.

On The Road 5/14: 2021 GMC Canyon 4WD AT4

On The Road 5/7: 2021 Nissan Armada Platinum
By Peter Perrotta In general, I am not a big fan of big SUVs or oversized pickup trucks. Not because there is something qualitatively wrong with vehicles from that segment, more because my personal preference is to not have to drive something that big around on an everyday basis. However, if I had to choose…

On The Road 4/30: 2021 Cadillac CT5 V-Series
By Peter Perrotta If you live in New Jersey you already know that when it comes to cars and music our biggest ambassador is The Boss himself – Mr. Bruce Springsteen. One of the many gems he penned was Pink Cadillac. A small bit of that song proclaims: “I love you for your pink Cadillac.…

On The Road 4/23: 2021 Subaru Forester Sport
By Peter Perrotta If the 2021 Subaru Forester were a football player, it would most definitely be an all-purpose running back. You know, the kind of running back that could not only pick up some tough yards when needed, but could block and catch passes as well – a good all-around utilitarian player. For me…
