So does the world really need another writer who's going to wax poetic on automobiles? Of course not, but that won't stop me from doing so anyway.
I've been scribbling about cars for some twenty years now, and reviewing new vehicles for the last five years. There are a few things that I've learned in that time: that for most people, a car is nothing more than a way to get from A to B; that for some people, it's the reason they breathe; and that the people in Group A will never understand the folks in Group B, and vice versa.
Most of my published writing is for the Group A people. I try to review vehicles that are down-to-earth, and when I do, I try to explain the things they should know to help them make an informed decision. Cars are everywhere, and we're all supposed to know about them -- or so we think. I don't believe that. So I don't just tell my readers that a car has torque steer or turbo lag -- I tell them what that is, because I never assume that they "should know".
But I'm also a member of Group B. I love fast cars, I love hot rods, I love automotive history. I love everything about cars except motorsports. I'm fascinated by automotive technology, and I get up each day to read the news and see what the automakers are bringing out next.
So this blog, these meanderings, are a chance for me to bring these two sides together. I'm here to have some fun and maybe, along the way, my readers will have a good time too.
