It’s not the ride, the power, or the number of cup holders. What we’re really excited about is the 2014 Honda Odyssey’s built-in vacuum. Take a look at the system in action. Apparently, it’s really great with fruit loops, cheerios, and goldfish crackers.

I enjoyed the Ford Taurus, even though it was the smaller engine it had a good amount of pep. Here’s a report from CBS 2 Chicago.

Infiniti JX35

This is a nice crossover from Infiniti. Having had the chance to drive this car, I can truly say that it’s a nice combination of SUV, minivan and car. If you’re looking for three rows of seats that aren’t boring, take a look at this CBS Chicago report.

Chevy Spark

I had the chance to drive a tiny, manual transmission, Chevy Spark. I’m 6’2″ but I had more than enough room in the driver’s seat. It is, however, a little tighter than some may like between you and the passenger. Here’s a report from CBS Chicago on the new Chevy Spark. Ed Curran added, in his report, ”Sold globally for the past 5 years, this little car is finally in the US. The smallest car ever released by GM, Spark has a great turning radius, feels larger on the inside, gets decent gas mileage, and has a price tag under $13k. If you are in the market for a car like the Honda Fit, Fiat 500 or Scion IQ…add the Spark to your list.”
