2013 Ram 1500
The re-skinned and significantly re-engineered 2013 Ram is
arriving at dealers earlier than expected. We expect buyers will
be especially pleased with the updated Ram 1500 because
of its striking good looks, upscale interiors, smooth ride,
towing and hauling capabilities, and now, its best-in-class fuel
economy. It’s a winning combination that maintains Ram’s
status as a top pick in the full-size pickup truck segment and
that may even entice buyers to switch brands.
Automobile Reviews
2013 Ford Taurus
Since its last redesign in 2010, Ford had to do something
to rival stylish competition such as the Chrysler 300, Toyota
Aval, and Hyundai Azera. Hence, its mid-cycle refresh for
2013. Overall, the newTaurus is not a perfect car, but it will
adequately please those who either like or need a large
family sedan. While it’s roomy, has a large trunk, accelerates
with ease and has just a few flaws, there’s a big move
among consumers to smaller and mid-size sedans that are
roomy inside and nowhere near this car’s price.

2013 Hyundai Elantra
There’s no denying the Hyundai brand is red hot. Sales
are skyrocketing, up 10 percent over 2011. However, most
Hyundai vehicles are in short supply. When compared to
competitor vehicles such as the Mazda3, Volkswagen Golf
or Honda Civic, both the Coupe and the GT wind up being a
bargain choice. But for more power, performance shoppers
will most likely prefer the Civic Si, Mazda Speed or VW Golf
GTI. Overall, both the Coupe and the GT are excellent fits
and expand the already excellent Elantra product line.

2013 Lexus ES
For 2013, you can see that Lexus has definitely brought its
"A" game with its fresh redesign of the ES, the brand’s best-
selling sedan. With a look that closely follows the GS sedan
introduced earlier this year, the ES breaks with tradition.
This change nets a much welcome 4.1 inches of extra rear-
seat legroom. It’s beautifully made — big, soft and super
comfortable on a long drive. Given the minimal price and
driving dynamic difference between the two models, we
recommend the ES 300h if you’re in the market.
