    • Happy new year to all my long time C&G friends! Overall, 2025 wasn't bad, but I didn't get as much as I wanted accomplished. For this upcoming year, I'd like to decide which side of the pond I want to live on.  I don't want to call it a resolution as much as it is an objective. Since it's cars that brought me here a long time ago, it's no surprise that I'm bummed by the absence of coupes and sedans, not to mention many viable choices for things I would want to use my GM Card earnings on, should it come to that.   I see that the VW Jetta is still around.  I once had one in Houston, and I wrote about it.  I liked it quite a bit.  I've also had a few Nissan Versas recently and read that the curtain might be falling on that. The profit margin might be too slim.  A few reviews said that this is one of the better small cars for the money.  (CVT and all.)  Lastly, the Toyota Camry LE should be around for a while and I once had one as a rental and like the latest rendition, complete with its hybrid engine.  With GM having brought a good few of us to C&G, it would have been hard to imagine a day looking toward the future where there would be no GM sedans, let alone coupes, to choose from. End of (my usual) rant.  Happy Friday.
