It's no secret that I am a Kia fan and after driving the new Sportage Hybrid I continue to be a fanboy. The fifth-generation of the Sportage is a bit larger than the previous model and pairs a 1.6L engine with a 44kw electric motor. I found the car to be spacious and packed with typical safety features and technology.

Wow.  Yep. I said it (or actually typed it). This is a SUPER TRUCK. The Ram folks apparently put a Viagra in the fuel tank of a 1500 truck and produced the TRX model.  Almost everything you want and need in a vehicle that can take you most anywhere off-road with its 702-hp engine.

It sits 8" wider than a normal Ram 1500 (hence my Viagra comment) and rides smooth on Bilstein shocks.  Gas mileage isn't great but sometimes you have to ask "who cares?" and keep on trucking while turning heads.

Looking for a BIG, LUXURIOUS pickup truck? Well I have a strong recommendation for you with the Sierra Denali Ultimate. This beast packs almost every upgrade imaginable and it drives incredibly smooth.

We can classify this as a small-SUV but I'd probably go with a VERY small-SUV.  But this head-turning vehicle solidly fits 5 people in its unique body style.  It may not pack a punch on the road but the affordability factor is strong.  Listen to my full review here as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show," on KPRC 950AM (Houston) and iHeartRadio (worldwide).

The Camry is the best-selling sedan in the country and one of the reasons is because you simply know what you are getting. A strong brand, lots of safety features, a roomy and solid ride, etc... But the new XSE V6 adds some spice and punchiness to the mix. You should like this one.

Sedans may not be as prevalent as they used to be but there are still many models on the road. Mazda has long produced nice sedans and the Mazda3 carries on the tradition of a solid ride with a decent price.

Wow.

Almost nothing else needs to be written but I certainly said a lot about one of the most luxurious and elegant sedans I have ever been in. Genesis continues to impress me as a brand and the G90 with a 3.5L e-Supercharger was one of my favorite vehicles I drove all year.

Another Lexus and this one is strong one. A sleek, sharp sedan with excellent handling thanks to the F-Sport package.

This is a big boy. If you are looking for a full-sized SUV that exudes luxury then add the LX600 near the top of your list. The F Sport package offers great handling and some sporty upgrades inside.

I love trucks.  Sometimes the bigger they are, the better they are, especially if you want to own the road (and off-road) but also tow things.  The new RAM 2500 Heavy Duty Rebel can probably tow a small house.  RAM Power Wagon fans should love this bad boy as it indeed lives up to its name of Heavy Duty but also has the nice upgrades included with the Rebel trim.
