Washing your car can be fun, and it's a rewarding way to protect the investment in your vehicle.

Pinpointing one thing people can do to maintain their car's value over time is hard. Richard Griot of car-care and tool supplier Griot's Garage says your investment can be best-served by "keeping its surfaces — the glass, trim, paint and wheels — clean."

The Fast and the Frugal
2009 Nissan 370Z

With such diversity to choose from, fun-loving drivers can find themselves in a pleasant quandary when deciding what to buy. Should they opt for a dashing convertible when they could have just as much driving fun in a sports sedan that also offers a usable rear seat?

The days of loading six kids, unbelted, into the back of a doughty station wagon and keeping them "occupied" with cassette tapes and AM radio are far behind us — very far behind us. Today's so-called family-friendly vehicles have lots of seating for all the kiddies so they don't touch each other, plenty of

First Drive: 2010 Lexus RX 450h

The new RX 450h is best distinguished from its RX 350 sibling by the narrow horizontal slit directly under its grille and the blue-accented "L" badge within.

Introduced in 2004 as a 2005 model, the Lexus RX 400h became the first luxury crossover powered by a hybrid drive system. It was the closest thing at the time to a guilt-free SUV we’d ever seen: luxurious, powerful and more fuel-efficient than its gas-powered sibling, the RX 300.
