2018 Honda Ridgeline: A Unique Pickup That Makes A Lot Of Sense

Honda does things its own way. The 2018 Honda Ridgeline is a perfect example of this. In a world where body-on-frame pickup trucks are the norm, Honda builds a unibody pickup. Bypassing the traditional pickup work truck market, Honda has gone after the recreational market, targeting tailgaters with their uniquely designed and super-functional cargo spaces. 

2018 Genesis G80: Mid-Size Luxury Sedan Cruises Under The Radar

The 2018 Genesis G80 started life back in 2008 as the Hyundai Genesis, a top-of-the-line luxury sedan created by Hyundai to take its image upmarket.

2018 Subaru Outback: Over Two Decades Of Steady Improvement

It’s over twenty years since Subaru took their Legacy Wagon, raised it on its suspension, added some rugged-looking cladding along the bottom and a few other outdoorsy touches, and called it the Subaru Outback for the 1995 model year. The rest is history. From its debut through the end of June 2017, the Outback has sold more than 1.8 million units in the American market. Not bad for a jacked-up station wagon!

The Honda Accord has been a favorite among American car buyers for 35 years. It was initially imported from Japan starting in 1976. The Accord was the first car from a Japanese manufacturer to be produced in the United States, when Honda started up its Marysville, Ohio plant in 1982.
