April 13, 2020 by Randy Stern
Tweet

I’m still picking up from the "cutting room floor" vehicles that did not make the cut back in 2017 for the sake of our ninth anniversary. This is really an exercise that tests my memory, as well as giving a look back at vehicles that have stood the test of time over a decade ago.

Historiography: 100 Years of "Zoom-Zoom"

March 2, 2020 by Randy Stern

One of the new zaibatsu began in Hiroshima on January 30, 1920. The Toyo Cork Kogyo Company opened up for business. It began as a manufacturer of cork items and machine tools to help prop up the growing industrial might of Japan. The fledgling company had its struggles through the 1920s, renaming itself as Toyo Kogyo Co., Ltd. in 1927 while being bailed out by a local bank and other local businessmen after dipping into bankruptcy.

Quickies: Vehicles Published Elsewhere – Round 3 for 2019

August 6, 2019 by Randy Stern
Tweet

Here we go again! Round 3 of this year’s roundup of vehicles that I worked with but appear elsewhere in the mediasphere. Sometimes, it is hard to track which vehicles were published where. However, CarSoup.com has been getting the lion’s share of my work lately. It is with intention, as they try to build traffic for vehicle reviews before site visitors select which vehicles they should choose from. It works that simply. But, hey, at least V&R gets some traffic on here for our (er, my) reviews. You’ve read them, right?

Historiography: One of The Spoils of Living in California

June 23, 2019 by Randy Stern
Tweet

My childhood was dictated by a few well-known facts about the USA automotive market. One, I lived in California.

TweetOh, Geneva, you are one expensive place. Perhaps that is one reason why I have never stepped foot inside Palexpo… But, for those who work this show know that it takes a shift in overall perspective to understand why this spring European show is important.
