Auto Review: 2025 Buick Envista Sport

Jan 14 2025 7 mins  
I recently said the Buick Envista was my favorite vehicle to recommend this year after test driving several versions of it. I like the design and curves on the outside and the roominess and tech features on the inside. Plus the price is right. Listen to my review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show"

Auto Review: 2025 Infiniti QX-80

Jan 03 2025 9 mins  
If you're looking for a big, 3-row SUV (and I mean BIG), look no further than the Infiniti QX-80. Built on the same frame - by the same company - the QX-80 is a pimped out version of the Nissan Armada. The 2025 version of this luxury tank features supple leather seats, big wheels, and an incredibly roomy 2nd and 3rd row. Listen to my full review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Sho

Auto Review: 2025 GMC Hummer EV 3X

Jan 02 2025 9 mins  
Big. Tough. Fearless. Heavy (9,000 lbs). Quick. Fast. Expensive. Just a few adjectives that I jotted down during my week in the Hummer EV 3X. This all-electric model is a head-turner and fun to drive, especially with the roof panels removed. Good tech inside and speedy pick-up with up to 830 hp. But beware the price tag and charging this big boy. Listen to my full review as heard

Auto Review: 2025 Buick Encore GX Sport Touring

Dec 07 2024 6 mins  
Buick continues to impress me with its new design, themes, and solid pricing so much that I generally recommend the brand to car buyers. The new 2025 version of the GX doesn't offer a lot of changes from last year's model but it still has nice tech and handles well. Listen to my full review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show."

Auto Review: 2024 Chevy Equinox EV 2LT

Nov 30 2024 7 mins  
Chevy's Equinox EV is very similar to its sister vehicle, the Blazer. I recently drove both of them and here is a comparison between the two. Long story short, Equinox is baby bro. Less expensive but still gives you a good amount of range. Listen to my review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show."

Auto Review: 2025 Chevy Blazer EV

Nov 18 2024 8 mins  
Chevy's newest version of its electric Blazer is very roomy, has a large infotainment screen, but is missing a few key tech features. Listen to my review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show."
