Used Vehicle Review: Suzuki Swift, 1995-2000
Well, it’s not fast and it’s not sexy and it’s so light you’ll get buffeted around in a heavy wind. In fact, drive over a bump, and you get kickback through the steering wheel and a general ruckus from the suspension. In cornering, there has always been lots of body lean and grip is modest at best from the smallish tires and wheels. Continue reading

For the 1999 model year, Cadillac introduced the first truck-based vehicle in what was then its 96-year history. It was the Escalade and by any measure, the 1999-2000 version was a stop-gap measure until an all-new Escalade arrived for the 2002 model year (there was no official 2001 Escalade). Continue reading
