Lexus LS makeover is a winner
Lexus and luxury almost always go hand in hand. Toyota’s premium division brought Far East competition to European stalwarts and America’s debutante, Cadillac. For Lexus, no model stepped up to the plate like the LS sedan. Introduced as a 1990 marque, the LS remains the brand’s flagship. Sales in this ...
Indy 500 dream for Dayton man turned out sadly
The three grandchildren of George Heller all became fans of the Indianapolis 500. And, they all know that winning it is the pinnacle for an open wheel racer; failure there can change a life forever. This is the story of one man and one race car in Dayton in 1951, ...
Mechanic might be wrong: Try flush on plugged heater
DEAR TOM AND RAY: Our mechanic states that the heater in our 2000 Ford Focus sedan is clogged. He says there is nothing he can do, since attempts to unclog it by shooting air through it would cause damage to the whole system if the inside is corroded. Is there ...

The phrase “entry-level vehicle” for a car manufacturer can suggest a small, bland, power-deficient sedan. Acura dispels these notions with its new 2013 ILX. Like its stablemates, the ILX has a crisp exterior with nice lines. From a distance, where size of the car could be questioned, the ILX has ...
The new face of hybrids
We say hybrid, you say Prius. Hybrid. Prius. Hybrid. C-MAX. Uhhh... Ford may have come up with a game changer in the gas/electric hybrid car market in the United States. Toyota, the front-runner in this division with its Prius, now has some competition thanks to the 2013 C-MAX Hybrid. The ...
A HYBRID with some PEP
On the surface, my tester for the week seems like just another obligatory hybrid creation. Afterall, Volkswagen already produces fuel-efficient cars with fuel-sipping diesel engines. So when I got behind the wheel of the Jetta Hybrid I was curious, to say the least. I was already eager to drive the ...
