First Drive: 2022 Nissan Frontier
The Nissan Frontier is getting a full-scale redesign for 2022 – and safe to say, it’s been a long time coming. We haven’t seen an all-new Frontier since the second-gen truck debuted in 2005 and we haven’t seen a new model-year since way back in 2019. That means it will have been three full model years since a new Frontier arrived on lots, as it should be doing by the time you read this.
Road Test: 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 4MATIC
The Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 has seemingly made style and refinement it’s top priority and have done a great job of exhibiting both. On the outside, the GLC 300 is a very sharp looking compact crossover with stunning body lines, an aggressive front fascia and an overall sporty look that really sets it apart from its main competitors.
Road Test: 2021 GMC Yukon Denali
GMC’s upscale Denali trim has become synonymous with bringing a touch of luxury to the truck and SUV segment. The rebuilt-from-the-ground-up fifth-gen Yukon is one of the most recent examples to receive all the latest bells and whistles that come along with the designation. Also built upon the same T1 platform as the modern Chevrolet Tahoe and the flagship Cadillac Escalade, a high level of refinement is almost a given.

Mercedes has introduced a new generation of GLA with this new 2021 model. For starters, the entire exterior has been redesigned.

There are also now options on options way too numerous to mention here, but worth a checking out what you might want to, well, put a check mark next to the most wished for.
New Competition: GMC Sierra 1500 Diesel vs Ram 1500 EcoDiesel
The popularity of pickup trucks in North America is seemingly at an all-time high, which is significant given that the entire automotive industry has seemingly shifted its focus to efficiency and economy. Sure, trucks are more efficient and practical then they have ever been before, but they are still very large and often feature large V8 engines under the hood, neither of which necessarily produce an economically friendly and fuel efficient vehicle.
Walks the Walk: 2020 Toyota Tacoma Limited
I‘m honestly a little scared as I sit down to write this review, just as I was a little scared as I took the seat of the 2020 Toyota Tacoma Limited and proceeded to shoot a video review.
Road Test: 2020 Nissan Sentra SR
The Nissan Sentra has now entered its eighth generation and although it continues to be Nissan’s best-selling nameplate in Canada, it was in great need of an overhaul. The previous version was still a very good value and got the job done, but there was little to wow you away from some of its very impressive competition. This has all changed now as the Sentra now boasts a much sportier, more upscale look with a completely updated interior that is well laid out, functional and nice to look at.
