I’ve been meaning to mention this lately. It seems that suddenly, and inexplicably, Hyundai and Kia became… cool. My pals at Auto123.com wrote a piece on Hyundai and Kia becoming “a victim of their own success“, so I felt inspired to jump on their coattails and get this post out. I know, I know. The Koreans [...]

You know what’s sad? When something happens to your car. I really hate that. A twit Someone on Twitter was teasing me recently for admitting that I get very emotional at the sight wrecked car. I can’t help it. It cuts me. It cuts me deep. Fittingly, I work at a car dealership where the inventory is full [...]

I’ve often mentioned my father’s prevalence in molding his daughter into the automotive enthusiast that I am, but you know, it takes two to tango. Or to turn your toddler into a gear head. My mother, who’s equally responsible for my existence, is also somewhat to blame for my existence at Devan Infiniti, or at [...]

In a world where people are completely process driven, focused on efficiency (if nothing else), need constant entertainment and instant satisfaction, life–the important things in it, that is–becomes a distraction.

Given my upbringing in Greenwich, CT which blindly considers any German automobile to be superior to any other brand despite many grave deficiencies, its only natural to dismiss a brand like Lexus or Infiniti. But its for this very reason, automotive snobbery, that I find true value in Infiniti and in fact, prefer it over other brands.

The purpose is to link the professional with the personal, to track how the two collide and aquiesce as we navigate through the days.
