Auto Review: 2026 GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate

Are you kidding me? 17 ft long and 5,500 lbs? This is an apartment on wheels; decorated and as comfy as a private jet. GMC's top of the line Yukon has space, tech, and power. It does come with a hefty price but it may be the only vehicle your family needs for the next decade.Listen to my full review as heard on iHeartRadio.

Auto Review: 2026 Alfa Romeo Tonale Speciale

Fun and entertaining. Those words could describe me :) but also for this Italian-made SUV. Certainly sporty with nimble handling, the Tonale makes driving a pleasure with a decent price and OK gas mileage.Listen to my full review as heard on iHeartRadio.

Auto Review: 2026 Nissan Sentra SL

Yes, sedans still exist. And Nissan continues to up its game with the Sentra. The SL version adds some very nice touches yet the price remains relatively low for what you get. Listen to my full review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show" on iHeartRadio.

Auto Review: 2026 Jeep Cherokee Laredo Limited

After 3 years, the Cherokee is back and it's a hybrid. Very good mileage - certainly for an AWD - and a decent price for a CUV from this venerable brand.Listen to my full review as heard on iHeartRadio.

Auto Review: 2026 Nissan Armada NISMO

It's like taking a big SUV and pumping it up with Red Bull. 460hp packed under the hood with Nissan's NISMO badging. If you're looking for a bad ass, big boy that is packed with tech features, comfort, and - oh by the way - packs a punch via the gas pedal, you need to check this out.Full review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show" on iHeartRadio.

Auto Review: 2026 K4 Hatchback GT-Line Turbo

A hatchback? Yep. A hatchback. Kia's K4 (originally the Forte) has gone through some new body styles and this version is a low-riding, sleep, compact SUV-type of ride.Listen to my full review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show" on iHeartRadio.

Auto Review: 2026 GMC Sierra EV AT4 Max Range

Probably the longest name of any vehicle I have reviewed but it was worth it. A luxury truck with a range of almost 500 miles? Could be the first EV that I would consider buying...but the price?Listen to my review as heard on "The High-Tech Texan Show" on iHeartRadio.
