If you’re looking for an excellent family vehicle, then the 2013 Infiniti JX is just the ticket! There are a lot of features that will please drivers with families, and I especially like the second row seat that slides forward to allow easy access to the third row, even with a child seat installed. And, [...]
The crescendo has been building at Palmetto Bay’s trouble council meetings since early 2011. The question for those frustrated nonaligned residents waiting for a return to reasonableness is whether recent events signal a climax or the point of no return. Those who watch meetings on TV can gain painful insight on how not to run [...]
The 2014 MINI Paceman is a superb all around vehicle, offering practicality, fun, efficiency and all-weather capability. The Paceman’s precise steering inspires confidence and the sport suspension does a great job of keeping the crossover vehicle’s body movement in check while delivering a fun ride. Introduced in March, the Paceman represents another MINI expansion into [...]
With fuel economy of 26/38 mpg and a 0-60 mph clocking of 6.9 seconds, the 2013 Hyundai Veloster just may be the best sport coupe compact on the market today. I especially like the front end styling and the three-door hatchback design. The new Veloster now has a 1.6-liter 201 hp Turbocharged-Gasoline Direct Injection [...]
The 2013 Dodge Challenger is a lot of fun to drive and it really turns heads as you pass other cars on the expressway. This is a muscle car that will draw you in with its refined handling and ride, and its spacious interior makes it comfortable to drive. Our test car for the week [...]
It’s tough to find anything not to like about the new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport.

The Santa Fe Sport and sibling LWB Santa Fe [...]

The 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is just a solid sedan; it’s a comfortable ride, has great technology and makes a great “sports truck” for hauling all of my kids’ baseball equipment. Even more important, the allnew Malibu earned a five-star rating from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and was a top safety pick by the Insurance [...]

Nissan’s mid-size Altima sedan has been redesigned for 2013 and the all-new fifth generation of the popular family sedan is really a honey of a car. The interior and exterior are completely new with the focus on more of an upscale look, while, at the same time, the government’s crash testing of the Altima resulted [...]
Thank you, Howard and Brian, for your service to Palmetto Bay. The expression goes that people hate Congress, but love their individual member of Congress. Each election year sees a staggeringly high number of incumbents reelected, despite the abysmal institutional approval rating. But things are quite different in Palmetto Bay. Not one, but both incumbents [...]
The Hyundai Sonata is one sweet automobile. It’s now in its third year of sales in this incarnation and the 2013 version is even better than the first two years. The Sonata exterior design is long, light and low, with a high beltline that allows for a sleek roofline accented by a third window. A [...]

The teams were comprised exclusively of more than 25 children with physical and/or mental challenges. The game was the first for The Miracle League of Miami-Dade, which provides [...]
