The new Grand Cherokee SRT8 is better than previous years. It handles better, stops better, drives better and rides better. It’s also built better and is more comfortable than the SUV it replaces. The 470-horsepower, 6.4-liter, 160-mph, 5,000-pound 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is a beast.

This SUV sets a new standard for handling and agility. this Grand Cherokee is smooth for an SUV. In Track mode the vehicle is even more aggressive. With a turn of a knob all systems shift to change the performance to suit your needs. The five settings are Auto, Sport, Track, Snow or Tow (it can pull 5,000 pounds).

The only concern is the price point but that might change soon. Ralph V. Gilles, president and CEO of Chrysler’s SRT brand, wrote on a recent Web chat that the automaker plans on “decoupling” some of the features to reduce the price on the high-performance SUV. “Grand Cherokee pricing has been sensitive,” Gilles acknowledged. “We understand.” “We will look at decoupling some of the features in the future as the usual new product surge subsides,” Gilles wrote. “We will start with immediately decoupling the DVD and sunroof.”

The 2011 Chevrolet Volt has been touted as an all electric car but actually it is an electric Hybrid. It has the ability to run further just on electric power than regular hybrid but it still has gasoline propulsion. The Volt can go anywhere from 25 to 50 miles without using an gas but it still has that option.

The Volt does have the most advanced hybrid system to date in the US market and is the most fuel efficient car you can buy. The down side to the Volt may be the price which is not cheap for the size of the car but you are buying the newest technology in the market. If you are looking for the “Greenest” car on the market then the 2012 Chevy Volt is the car for you.

I purchased a new 2011 Hyundai Sonata after doing much research to find a quality 4 door vehicle at a good price. I found that for the money the Sonata was the best value I could find with the most options. My Sonata is roomy, drives nice with a solid ride, and is very fuel efficient.

I can only say good things about the car and would recommend it as a good car at a good price. I also like the idea of the Assurance Trade-In Value Guarantee. The Program Provides a Trade-In Value Guarantee Within 24-48 mos. of Ownership on Any Qualifying Vehicle. That and the special financing made it a good choice for me. I would definitely recommend a Hyundai.

I drive the big 2010 Toyota Sequoia, a full sized SUV from Toyota. It has great space as it is the largest Toyota SUV that is still in production. It has very comfortable seating for eight passengers and great leg space.

The vehicle is available in both 2 wheel drive and 4 wheel drive systems but we bought the 4 and are happy on snowy days. Another huge bonus is the 10,000lb tow capacity. We have always been boat people and the Sequoia is hands down the best vehicle we have ever towed with. Great SUV.

I just took delivery of my 4th Jeep. This is the best Jeep I’ve every owned. I can’t wait until the summer to take off the top. The interior is nice and roomy. The used Jeep Wrangler provides the most confidence in every type of weather and driving conditions. The ride is little rough if you are used to driving a sedan but the trade off is worth it.

A 2011 Hyundai Genesis review on Cars.com, interesting read. I expected a smooth-riding, upscale sedan, but what I got was a rough-riding vehicle, which lets me know about every little bump in the road. I cannot believe Hyundai bills this vehicle as a luxury sedan. Even Consumer Reports magazine warned about the “nervous” and unsettled ride of the Hyundai Genesis. I assume the problem resides in either the suspension system and/or the tires. I plan on having the service department at the Hyundai dealership address my concerns.

My Buick LaCrosse is great car. It ride, handles, has comfort, and get-up-and-go with the V6. I am happy with the car in many ways. My major issue is the blind spots, the left front windshield post is to wide and creates a hazard. Over all the Buick LaCrosse is a nice and I rate it well worth the money.

Chevrolet comes to market with an all new subcompact car for 2011. Called the Cruze, it replaces the Cobalt in the bow tie brand’s lineup and competes with vehicles like the Ford Focus, Honda Civic, Hyundai Elantra, Nissan Sentra, Toyota Corolla, and Volkswagen Jette.

The Cruze is the first “global” car from General Motors and is already on sale in more than 130 countries world wide. It goes on sale in late September of 2010 and is available only as a front-drive, five-passenger sedan.

With prices ranging from $16,995 to $22,695, Cruze will initially be offered in LS, 1LT, 2LT, and top-line LTZ trim. Chevrolet plans to add an ECO model in late November that it hopes will carry a, EPA highway rating of 40 mpg. Also available is an RS package on LT and LTZ models that adds unique front and rear facias, rocker moldings, front fog lights, and a rear spoiler.

With Cruze’s impressive list of standard safety features, upscale interior and reasonable base price, there’s no reason for compact-car buyers to shy away from the bow-tie brand any more. Best bet is probably a 2LT at just about $20,000, however the LTZ appeals to the enthusiast with its upgraded brakes, larger wheels and tires and sport suspension.

I drive a new 2010 Honda Odyssey and it is a great vehicle for the family. I feel it is the best minivan, I test drove them all and love the Odyssey. We purchased it with the 16 inch DVD player and it keeps the kids occupied on long trips. The seating and storage capacity are outstanding and love the ride. We completely recommend the 2010 Honda Odyssey and would buy it again.

I drive a 2010 Kia Soul which is used to commute to a Community College. It gets great gas mileage and was purchased new for less than $16,000 with a moon roof and premium stereo it is nice to drive and well equipped. People say its is boxy but it is great to drive and I feel it has style. I would recommend the Kia Soul to any younger drive, quick and economical.
