		<description><![CDATA[ With the somewhat recent debut of the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor off-roader, it's tempting to draw parallels between it and the Ram Power Wagon. But for all their similarities, these are beasts of a different breed. First offered as part of the 2005 (Dodge) Ram Heavy Duty lineup, the Power Wagon is just as much a hard-core off-road machine as the Raptor, but the target audiences share only their distaste for pavement. For the Raptor, home turf is the low-lying deserts, places where it can flex its suspension at 100 mph over sand washes and scrub. The Power Wagon, though, answers a higher calling and makes its home climbing mountains and patrolling the back roads of our highest altitudes, not our lowest. 2010 Ram Power Wagon Rear Three Quarter View Snow For everything the Power Wagon offers, though, there are a few options we’re left pining for. The redesigned-for-2010 package can only be ordered with the Crew Cab four-door body and 6.4-ft. bed, making the truck simultaneously too long for the most serious off-roading while handicapping customers who need the load space of the 8.2-ft. box. The Power Wagon also is only offered with the 5.7L 383-hp Hemi gasoline V-8 engine and its 400 lb.-ft. of torque and the five-speed automatic. The combination is more than enough to pull the rig through most any situation, but we can’t help but wish the legendary Cummins turbodiesel were available, and maybe a stick shift. 2010 Ram Power Wagon Front Three Quarter View High Mud The recipe to build a Power Wagon is rather simple. Start with a $39,430 Ram 2500 SLT Crew Cab 4x4 and mark the $6,350 option box innocuously titled "Customer Preferred Package 26P." For a base price of $45,780, you walk out the door with an old-school manual transfer case on the floor, lockable front and rear axles, a remote-disconnecting front stabilizer bar, skid plates on the fuel tank and transfer case, a Warn winch up front and a high-output alternator to run it, Bilstein shocks, a trailer brake controller and tow hitch, 17-in. wheels wrapped in 32-in. all-terrain tires, a 2-inch lift, and a 4.56 rear axle ratio. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ A sleeker, more "urban-friendly" all-new Kia Sportage will make its debut at next month's Geneva Motor Show, the automaker revealed today. Its "bold, athletic, and sporty" design wears the brand's new nose that's complimented by more pronounced front shoulders and rear haunches. Swept back headlights flank the prominent Kia-badged grille up front. Deep character lines can be seen along the lower passenger doors, as well as across the rear hatch. As a whole, the Sportage is longer, wider, and lower than the outgoing edition and promises more cargo and passenger space inside. Ride quality is said to be vastly improved thanks to the longer wheelbase. Powertrains have yet to be announced, but as it stands, both diesel and gas mills are slated for production once sales start later this year. Check back for more straight from Geneva in the coming weeks. Source: Kia ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Infiniti has released pricing information today on the all-new 2011 M sedan, starting the base MSRP at $47,115 for the rear-drive 2011 M37. The entry-level 2011 M37 features Infiniti's 330-horse 3.7-liter V-6 and a seven-speed automatic transmission. Those looking for improved all-weather driveability can step up to the all-wheel-drive M37x at a starting price of $49,265. Standard equipment on both models includes power-folding side view mirrors, front door handle courtesy lights, Active Noise Control, RearView Monitor, and Enhanced Intelligent Key memory - now including audio, navigation, and climate control settings. Those with a bigger budget and a heavier throttle foot will likely opt for the M55 and all-wheel-drive counterpart, M56x, starting at $58,415 and $60,915, respectively. The two top-flight versions are distinguished by an all-new 420-horsepower 5.6-liter V-8 paired to the same seven-speed automatic as the six-cylinder variant, though with revised gear ratios. Both M56 models also include the previously-optional Premium Package (a $3,350 value, says Infiniti) as standard. The Premium Package includes Infiniti's hard drive navigation system with an 8-inch touch screen, a Bose two-channel, 10-speaker audio system, streaming audio via Bluetooth, climate controlled front seats, and a heated steering wheel.&#160; All standard M37 equipment is also included. Prices for 2011 Infiniti M models represent an increase of $450 over the current 2010 models for the M37 series, while the M56 gets a $2050 bump and the M56x gets a $750 bump - increases that Infiniti says are negated by the additional standard equipment offered. "The all-new M represents the kind of inspired design, performance, technology, and craftsmanship that luxury buyers are asking for," said Ben Poore, vice president of Infiniti's Business Unit. "Along with our other great vehicles, the 2011 M puts Infiniti right in the sweet spot of today's performance luxury market." ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Over the last few years, sales of pickups for personal use have dropped dramatically. It's been a long, slow road to recovery in this country, and we still haven't seen truck sales improve. Making things worse, guys who work in construction are among the most dedicated to buying pickups for use on the job, and there isn't a lot of that going on right now, either. How did truckmakers respond to this sudden, dramatic, and prolonged change in the marketplace? Instead of sticking solely with the mainstream-market formula, they're focusing on catering to the specific needs of truck people. That helps explain the interesting grouping of vehicles for the latest Truck of the Year event. Four qualified: the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, the Ford Transit Connect, the Ram Heavy Duty, and the Toyota Tundra 4.6-liter work truck. First contender is the off-road race-ready Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. Instead of taking the street-biased high-performance route of the Lightning, the design team looked at the strengths of the truck platform and redefined the idea of high performance. The Raptor is ideally suited to romping over the ruts and sand of the Baja 1000 and only gets better the faster you go. And even though the extended-cab powered by a 5.4-liter V-8 is an impressive combination, we hear a crew cab and 400-plus-horsepower, 6.2-liter V-8 are coming. 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 Heavy Duty Front Three Quarters Driver &#160;Click to view Gallery Some of you may wonder why on earth there's a little van in Truck of the Year. The Ford Transit Connect is no kid-toting minivan. This is a van built for work, with a 1600-pound payload, comparable to that of any half-ton truck on the market. This van, which has been sold in Europe for many years, has been put through truck-durability testing and is ready to take on full-size vans for a piece of that market. For those who need to be able to tow a fifth-wheel trailer or carry 5000 pounds of equipment in the bed, the Ram Heavy Duty arrives for 2010 with a revised platform, all-new sheetmetal, redesigned interior, and several innovations. These trucks are available as 3/4- and one-ton models, plus 4500 and 5500 trucks for even more capability. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Despite the effects of the Great Recession on personal-use truck sales, there is still demand for pickups ready to do hard work. The heavy-duty truck market has gotten smaller, but the guys who buy those pickups are fiercely loyal to the segment-they need the extreme capability these hard-working haulers provide. Some may wonder why anyone would own a truck that can tow nearly 20,000 pounds, but for a lot of people in construction, those who transport vehicles or goods, and those with ranches, this is just a part of everyday life. 2010 Ram 2500 Heavy Duty Rear Three Quarters Static &#160;Click to view Gallery Within the next few months, the heavy-duty category will heat up, as all three manufacturers have all-new offerings coming. The Ram Heavy Duty is the first to market, and it's already ahead of the game. When Ford and GM's all-new heavy-dutys come out, both new diesel engines are going to require urea injection to meet emissions requirements that take effect January 2010. The Ram Heavy Duty's Cummins inline-six turbodiesel, which puts out an impressive 350 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, met those requirements -- without urea -- over a year ago. Instead, the Ram 2500 and 3500 use a NOx adsorber with precious metals that convert the NOx into inert gases. Not only does this mean the Ram's emissions and exhaust systems are less complex than those in the upcoming Ford Super Duty and Silverado/Sierra HD (which could improve reliability and help keep maintenance costs down), it also means that, at the dealership, the Ram will very likely have a price advantage over its competitors. And while in this size category diesel is king, there are plenty of heavy-duty truck buyers who prefer gas power. The 5.7-liter Hemi, the Ram's base engine, has the most horsepower (383) and torque (400 pound-feet) of any V-8 in its class -- and only the Ford Super Duty's V-10 has more torque than the Hemi, but it still has less horsepower. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ For car buyers, four words mean the difference between going home in a new sedan or their old clunker: Your loan is approved. They are being uttered more often these days, spurred by a trillion-dollar government program that provides guarantees when those loans are sold to investors. That is helping banks, credit unions and auto finance companies make auto loans at a quickening pace. And consumers are paying less to borrow. Interest rates have been at record lows since last December. It's bit of good news for the auto industry in the U.S., where 2009 sales are expected to hit a 30-year low of around 10 million when figures are announced Tuesday. Partly because of loosening credit, industry analysts expect more than 1 million cars and light trucks to be sold in December, the best monthly performance since Cash for Clunkers in August. Financial firms wrote 5.5 percent more car loans in the third quarter compared with the prior three months, Experian Automotive says. Fourth-quarter figures aren't yet available, but Jesse Toprak, vice president of the auto pricing tracker TrueCar Inc., says December saw an uptick in auto loan approvals for consumers with average or above-average credit as auto finance companies tried to clear out inventory. Paul Taylor, chief economist for the National Auto Dealers Association, said used-car prices also have stabilized due to limited supply, making used-car loans more attractive to banks. Still, Toprak said it could take another year or even longer for financial firms to trust consumers enough to return to normal levels for auto lending. It's also far from the freewheeling days of the credit boom. Third-quarter auto lending was down 30 percent from the same period in 2006, a year when U.S. car and light truck sales reached 16.5 million. In the meantime, only those with good credit need apply. A top-tier borrower - someone with a credit score between 720 and 850 - can get a 36-month auto loan with an average monthly rate of 5.74 percent, down from 6.65 percent a year ago, according to Informa Research Services, a financial research firm headquartered in Calabasas, Calif. On a $20,000 car loan, that's a savings of nearly $300 over three years. But the cost of borrowing has risen for people in the bottom tier. A person with a score of 500 to 589 has seen the average rate climb to 18.56 percent from 16.47 percent a year ago. That translates to an extra $751.68 over 3 years. Banks are still nervous about loaning money to risky borrowers given high rates of unemployment, foreclosures and late payments since the financial crisis began. "We used to have a subprime auto lending industry," says Dan Alpert, managing partner at Westwood Capital, an investment bank involved in the securitization business. "We don't have that anymore." Although demand for autos has picked up from depths seen at the start of 2009, the lending machine really got moving thanks in large part to grease from the government's TALF - or Term Asset Backed Loan Facility - program. The program began last March and allows investors to borrow money from the Federal Reserve to buy the loans off lenders' books. This raises money and makes room for financial firms to write more loans. There is evidence it's working. Financial institutions raised more than $19 billion by selling securities made of bundled auto loans in the third quarter last year. That's up nearly 60 percent from the second quarter and more than sixfold from the same period in 2008, according to the Securities Industry &#38; Financial Markets Association. TALF is scheduled to end in March 2010. Whether the market for securitized loans can stand on its own at that point depends on the state of the economy, lending experts say. The concerns are similar to those in the housing market, where tax credits for first-time home buyers have helped prop up demand. But those credits expire April 30. And loan activity, in general, has been weak. According to the Federal Reserve, loans by the nation's 8,000 banks have fallen 8 percent to $6.7 trillion in the past year, and some analysts expect them to keep falling at least through next year. But there are good signs. The proportion of loans - auto and other - requiring TALF support has declined steadily over the past several months and should continue to fall early this year as the market for securitized loans continues to improve, says Tom Deutsch, deputy executive director of the American Securitization Forum, an industry group that represents those who turn debt into bonds. "It should be relatively easy to wean off TALF," he says. In the meantime, the easier lending market has helped car buyers like Marissa Corbitt, who last month bought her first-ever car with a loan from Nissan's financing arm, NMAC. Corbitt, a 24-year-old accountant from Chattanooga, Tenn., was able to negotiate the cost of her 2010 Rogue down several thousand dollars to about $20,500 after some incentives. She said she was then pleasantly surprised by the interest rate NMAC offered her for the crossover. "Nissan was offering a 2.9 percent APR, so I got that," said Corbitt, whose top-tier credit score helped her case. "It's a good interest rate." George Pipas, Ford Motor Co.'s top U.S. sales analyst, says the industry appears to have passed through its lowest point and is trending toward a slow recovery. "The situation is still fragile," Pipas said. "You can't walk away from concerns about employment and income." ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Product summary of The Mazda 3 s Grand Touring The good: The 2010 Mazda Mazda3 s Grand Touring 5-door features aggressive styling, strong performance, and a solid fit and finish. High-end features such as adaptive headlamps, Bluetooth audio streaming, and keyless entry/start contribute to a more refined driver experience. The bad: The 4.3-inch display is much smaller than most OEM navigation offerings. Entering destinations with the steering wheel-mounted rocker switch can be tedious. Dealer-installed iPod integration seems tacked on. The bottom line: The 2010 Mazda Mazda3 s Grand Touring 5-door's cabin tech package is good, but not the best in the business. However, its performance and utility sit well above that of your average economy car. ]]></description>
