The 2009 Buick Super Series
Buick reincarnates a classic name for the Buick sedans of the future.


The Super name first appeared in 1940, becoming synonymous with the best Buick had to offer. During the 1950s, the Century series combined the Roadmaster's big V8 engine with the lighter weight Special body to become the Super. The Super designation has been on hiatus since 1958, but Buick feels so strongly about the new design and engineering found in today’s “Supers” that the name has new meaning.

2009 Buick Enclave Totes Up to Eight Passengers in Three Rows
Spacious seating, great cargo capacity, excellent ride and handling…Enclave delivers!


It’s ironic. The Buick that garners the rave reviews is not a sedan, but a crossover, the 2009 Buick Enclave. When you give the Enclave a look, it becomes clear it offers all the advantages of a luxury sedan plus the advantages of the crossover body style. When families look at a Buick, the one that meets their needs may just be the Enclave.

Got That Déjà-New Feeling About the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro?
Now that we’ve seen the stunning new Camaro, it brings back memories.


It’s back to the future with the arrival of the much anticipated 2010 Chevrolet Camaro. Reportedly, the 21st century Camaro was inspired by the 1969 SS model owned by GM design chief Ed Welburn. That inspiration has been realized in a car that evokes the spirit of the original, but carries its own water, too. That’s the way to do retro muscle!

Drive Green Even When it’s a Waste
By “waste,” we mean safely getting rid of the hazardous stuff.


Much of your car is hazardous, at least when it becomes a waste product. Much of the responsibility for proper disposal has been taken on by the automotive industry and its suppliers. Still, every driver will face a dilemma sooner or later. How can I dispose of this stuff without harming the environment?

Cell Phone Use in Cars Is All About the Brain, Not the Hands
Bluetooth notwithstanding, humans just aren’t wired to drive and phone.


Many states have made it illegal to use a hand-held cell phone while driving. Experts believed the danger was in driving with one hand and manipulating the cell phone with the other. That has spurred the popularity of hands-free cell phone technology, most notably enabled by Bluetooth connectivity. Unfortunately, further research is showing that hands-free phone use is no safer than hand-held talking. The hands are NOT the problem. It’s the brain!
