Moving in our long-term 2021 Hyundai Palisade | The box is a winner

Can you move in a three-row crossover or SUV without tearing the hair out of your scalp in frustration? That’s the question I recently tried to answer with our long-term 2021 Hyundai Palisade test vehicle. Of course, most folks think of box trucks, vans or full-size pickups and trailers when the subject of moving comes […] October 06, 2021 at 07:18AM

2021 Hyundai Palisade Long-Term Update | Super smooth sailing

Our 2021 Hyundai Palisade has been a road trip warrior throughout the warmer months of the year. It’s been to North Carolina and back a couple of times, to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and even eastward to Central New York. All of these trips are causing the miles to pile up, so we had to get […] September 21, 2021 at 07:17AM

2021 Acura TLX Long-Term Update | Pleasurable drive, puzzling gremlin

This was my first long haul behind the wheel of our long-term 2021 Acura TLX, and past experience with the brand (and Honda in general) led me to believe that if I could get past any seat comfort issues, the TLX and I would get along just fine. As it turned out, I had no […] September 10, 2021 at 06:07AM

2021 Acura TLX Long-Term Update | Tuneful turbo-four soundtrack

I used to be enamored with the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine format. I owned a 2004 Subaru WRX, with its turbo boxer mill, and liked it quite a bit, rough though it could be. Then turbo-fours, often displacing the same 2.0 liters, began replacing heavier and thirstier naturally aspirated V6 powerplants across the industry, and I […] July 30, 2021 at 06:09AM

2021 Hyundai Palisade Long-Term Update: Driving assist delivers again

HESSEL, Mich. — Michigan is a big state. You may or may not know it has two peninsulas, and getting from metro Detroit to the upper half is a good four-hour jaunt. You can do it quicker and you’ll probably get a ticket. Happened to me in a Chevy Tahoe. Do it slower, like I […] July 17, 2021 at 07:19AM

2021 Hyundai Palisade Long-Term Update | Now there are two of them

Since my family was expecting our second child, my wife, Cat, and I had been planning to replace her Mercedes-Benz GLK 250 BlueTEC with something larger. It would be her daily driver, and it needed to be big enough to fit two kids in car seats, two dogs (one of which is huge), a cooler […] July 13, 2021 at 07:18AM

2021 Hyundai Palisade Long-Term Update | Feel the Quilting

The 2021 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy gets the seemingly insignificant details ok. It resembles a truly pleasant family room on wheels, and the inside has impacted me during my spell with Autoblog(*’s) drawn out SUV.The Calligraphy trim makes the Palisade serious with premium utes, and accessories that Genesis and Lincoln have used to hoist their brands […] June 16, 2021 at 07:15AM

2021 Acura TLX Long-Term Update | Seats look extraordinary, feel less so

There’s a great deal to like about our Acura TLX A-Spec(*’s) inside. Specifically, I love the clear red calfskin upholstery, the fulfilling drive mode selector, and the heaps of room inside. What I’m not so infatuated with is the real plan of the front seats.They look incredible and are very shapely with the undulating dark […] June 12, 2021 at 06:08AM

2021 Hyundai Palisade Long-Term Update | Korea’s best three-column esteem isn’t a Kia

I just completed my spell in Autoblog(*’s) long-term 2021 Hyundai Palisade and keeping in mind that I didn’t invest close to as much energy in the driver’s seat as I’d have preferred, my month went through with the keys left me considerably more intrigued with Hyundai’s large three-line than I was before. My apprehensions with the […] June 08, 2021 at 07:19AM
