Driving With The High-Tech Texan - Car Reviews

If I had to get a truck, I would opt for a midsize. Easier to park and I really don't haul a lot of things. And I would pimp it out with a big engine, big tires, and good infotainment.

Boom...the Nissan Frontier Pro-4X.

Could be the largest vehicle on the road right now. 6.2L V8 engine. 3 rows. Massive. Luxurious. Tech. Potentially larger than your living room.

GMC didn't add "Denali Ultimate" for marketing purposes. They mean it. The fanciest and most expensive Acadia ever made. Leather and massaging seats. Super Cruise. 3 rows of family fun.

Toyota's RAV4 has long been a solid SUV that can handle a bit off-roading and a good load of people and gear.

The PHEV version can add almost 50 miles of electric range along with its decent gas mileage.

I don't get the opp to test drive a lot of VW vehicles so this was tough to compare with previous Tiguan models.

But the upgrades with this badge give it a good amount of horsepower and some nice touches inside.

EVs are fast. There is a reason the Cadillac uses the letter V for it's high-end badging on the Optiq. It stands for Very fast.

Not really (Velocity max) but this electric SUV pushes 519 hp and has some amazing tech features.

This particular upgraded version of the G70 is a mouthful but Genesis put its money where their mouth is.

A sexy and fast sedan with luxury features and a fast motor will turn heads and get you wherever you go with a smile.

An EV pickup truck that is quiet enough for a phone call, fast enough to embarrass muscle cars, can tow up to 12,500 lbs, and has more comfy features than my house.

I personally prefer mid-size trucks instead of the larger boys. Easier to park and handle, plus I don't haul a lot of things where I need a full-size.

So the new Pro-4X (great badge and upgrades) could be a nice option for you should you still want to schlep things around yet feel comfy on-and-off the paved roads.

Are you kidding me? 17 ft long and 5,500 lbs? This is an apartment on wheels; decorated and as comfy as a private jet.

GMC's top of the line Yukon has space, tech, and power. It does come with a hefty price but it may be the only vehicle your family needs for the next decade.

A three-row SUV that feels premium and can handle a bit off-roading? Yes, please. And nice job by Kia for the new design and upgrades.

Fun and entertaining. Those words could describe me :) but also for this Italian-made SUV. Certainly sporty with nimble handling, the Tonale makes driving a pleasure with a decent price and OK gas mileage.

Yes, sedans still exist. And Nissan continues to up its game with the Sentra. The SL version adds some very nice touches yet the price remains relatively low for what you get.

After 3 years, the Cherokee is back and it's a hybrid. Very good mileage - certainly for an AWD - and a decent price for a CUV from this venerable brand.

It's like taking a big SUV and pumping it up with Red Bull. 460hp packed under the hood with Nissan's NISMO badging. If you're looking for a bad ass, big boy that is packed with tech features, comfort, and - oh by the way - packs a punch via the gas pedal, you need to check this out.

A hatchback? Yep. A hatchback. Kia's K4 (originally the Forte) has gone through some new body styles and this version is a low-riding, sleep, compact SUV-type of ride.

Nissan really did it this time. A home run. An honesty great vehicle here, as the Platinum version adds a number of luxury features. Decent price that can easily be your daily driver.

Probably the longest name of any vehicle I have reviewed but it was worth it. A luxury truck with a range of almost 500 miles? Could be the first EV that I would consider buying...but the price?

That's a long name for a compact SUV but Kia does a nice job mixing in comfort, tech, and very good mileage with this model.

How do you feel like a luxurious cowboy while rolling around in a truck? Check out the Chevy Silverado High Country and you'll find out quickly.

Big truck. Big engine. Big tech. Big comfort.
