• argent reviewed a 1997 Geo Tracker

  

  Piece of junk - stay away from the Tracker

  One of my friends had a '97 Tracker back in high school and I drove it a few times. I thought it handled like &#!@, and for being a SUV, had terrible headspace and was not comfortable for a tall guy …more

  A beautiful, comfortable SUV with class and power

  My mom owned a 1998 Expedition for about four years, when I was in high school. It was dark blue and had a tan leather interior. I think it's one of the nicest of the late-90s SUVs made by the …more

  A decent car, no frills - but no Toyota

  I drove this as a rental in Texas when I was visiting Texas A&M. It was a rather boring gray sedan with a plain cloth interior, but the car got me where it needed to go. It had good acceleration and …more

  A comfortable, but clunky boat of a vehicle

  I first saw this car in the film "A History of Violence" and I was intrigued by its powerful looks, like an old classic sedan from a mobster movie, so I took one for a test drive at the local …more

• argent reviewed a 1997 Land Rover Range Rover

  

  

  Classic comfort, but hard to repair

  These older Range Rovers are utterly beautiful vehicles. They are truly the Rolls Royce of 4x4 vehicles and are designed with the classic British style that everyone thinks of when they think of …more

• argent reviewed a 1999 Chevrolet Camaro

  

  The last of the great "F Body" muscle cars

  My friend Mark had one of these Camaros in high school and we spent lots of time driving it around. His was a convertible and it was green with tan leather seats, super comfortable although the …more

• argent reviewed a 1997 Acura Integra

  

  A super sporty and stylish ride

  I really miss the days of these old Integras. It's a lost era-everything now is very curvy and odd-looking, with large logos and huge door handles. The old '97 Integra was sort of an economy sports …more

• argent reviewed a 2000 Honda Accord

  

  

  This is probably the best sedan ever made, and the coupe is even better

  My best friend owned a red Accord of this year some time ago, though he didn't have it for long. But his car was the coupe version, not the four door. He let me drive it a few times. I have to say, …more

• argent reviewed a 2000 Land Rover Discovery

  

  

  Unbeatable comfort and classic style

  The Discovery is one of those vehicles that is just iconic. It's not quite as well known as the Range Rover, or as expensive, but it is one wonderfully rugged vehicle. I've driven my friend's …more

  Eh - I am not a fan of this car

  We had to rent one of these when my dad's car broke down. Let me just say for the record, I never liked the look of the thing even before I ever got behind the wheel of it. I always thought it looked …more

• argent reviewed a 1999 Cadillac Escalade

  

  I like this Escalade better than the ones they make now

  The Escalade is now kind of a symbol of rappers and flashy movie stars nowadays, so that gives it sort of a reputation of being tacky. The newer Escalade is very over-built in my opinion. I hate the …more

  A good truck, smooth handling and comfortable. What's not to like?

  In the summer of 2006 I had to drive to Illinois to pick up a motorcycle that I had purchased on eBay. I went to the local rental place and this was the only truck they had available to rent. I would …more

  I wish they still made these! Great truck, for a real man

  I test drove this once when I was considering buying a new 4x4. The guy selling it was letting it go for $6000 which seemed like a great price. It was dark green with a tan leather interior. …more

  This is THE most fun I have ever had driving a vehicle

  Not many people ever get the chance to drive one of these things, so I was lucky. A very wealthy friend (his dad was a contractor) owned one of these, or should I say his family owned it. They had a …more

  This Mustang is way cooler than the new ones they make now

  I love the classic Ford Mustangs, made in the 60s, and no newer one will ever be as cool as those, but the 1990s-era Mustangs came close, in the later years of the decade. The styling was super slick, …more

  Ah, the great days of Eagle

  I wish this car was still around. Really, I wish Eagle still existed. Unfortunately, the company folded long ago, but back when it was around, it produced a lot of lame cars - like the Spirit or …more

  This is one heck of a nice sedan

  One of my friends had one of these. His parents were pretty rich and they bought it for him as his very first car, which is quite the gift. When I first got in it I was amazed at how insanely nice the …more

  This SUV is comfortable but I absolutely hate the way it looks.

  Mitsubishi makes surprisingly good SUVs. The Montero, for instance, which they made for many years under many different configurations, is one of the most rugged vehicles of all time. The Outlander …more

• argent reviewed a 2004 Volkswagen Passat

  

  

  Super comfortable, and very classy

  I love this Passat wagon. It just radiates class. I always liked German cars, but Porsches and BMWs and Audis are on the expensive side, so Volkswagen is a good choice for those on a budget, and …more

• argent reviewed a 2008 Toyota Yaris

  

  

  This is one sporty, efficient little car

  OK, it looks weird, I'll admit it. When I first saw it I thought it looked like a little mouse, actually. My mom owns it - she just got it recently, the two door version, not the four door. I have to …more

• argent reviewed a 1999 Kia Sportage

  

  

  Eh...not the greatest little SUV out there

  Sportage? What kind of name is that for a vehicle? I think something might have been lost in the translation. The Kia Sportage, which I test-drove out of sheer boredom one sunny afternoon, is no great …more

  A BEAUTIFUL car! Pure class.

  I had the pleasure of driving this Mercedes S-class in Florida while visiting my grandparents. My grandpa's friend owned one of these, and he let me take it out for a spin. I just drove around near a …more

  An average car - not great, not bad

  My uncle has one of these Ford Five Hundreds and I drove it for a while around Boca Raton, FL. The first thing I noticed about it was the way it looked on the outside. I thought the rims and the grill …more

  A new look for a new year - Ford Almighty!

  My friend Chris got one of these as a graduation present and we spent lots of time cruising around in it after school. I drove it a few times and I liked it. I can't say I liked it better than the …more

  This is a real man's truck

  A friend of mine has this Ram 2500. It's red and has a quad-cab. I've driven it numerous times and it is one powerful vehicle, especially in 4x4 mode. It can get up any hill or pull a large trailer or …more

  This is a good first car

  This was my very first car, a white Altima. It had a tan interior and was very comfortable. I wanted a "cooler" car, honestly, but for a 16 year old kid this one worked out alright. It had super-good …more

  A good car for a girl

  My sister has one of these and I've driven it many times. It's a great car for a girl in high school - it has a lot of space, it rides like a dream, and it's comfortable. The outside, I don't really …more

  4Runner - a classic 4x4 and very rugged

  I drove one of these during my Senior year of high school and 2 years of college. It was dark green, with a tan interior. It was very rugged and reliable - I crashed it several times and was lucky …more
