Used Vehicle Review: Honda Odyssey, 1995-1998
Honda introduced a lot of nifty ideas in December of ’94 with the arrival of its first minivan, the Odyssey. Some of those ideas were carried forward to the 1999 remake of the Odyssey. That all-new, made-in-Canada minivan arrived in the fall of 1998 and it’s a completely different vehicle. But that’s another story entirely. Continue reading

Used Vehicle Review: GMC Sierra pickup, 1988-1998
General Motors Corporation has re-made its full-size pickup trucks (GMC Sierra/Chevrolet Silverado and C/K pickup) just twice since the late 1980s: 1999 and 1988.

“Not German, not Japanese, not European – American. Yes, it’s a modern car, but when you look at it you know – that’s a Mustang – the heartbeat of the company,” was how Jim O’Connor, then President of Ford of Canada, described the redesigned 1994 Mustang at its introduction to the Canadian press.
