Reviews SummaryThe Ford Mustang returns for a final tour as its primary rivals head to retirement. This seventh-generation pony car is based on its predecessor but receives numerous upgrades that significantly improve its interior and technology. For fun on a budget, it's difficult to beat a Mustang, and this newest version continues the tradition with a healthy dose of nostalgia. | |
Reviews SummaryThe 2016 Dodge Dart is the king (or queen) of big compacts with a large exterior that rivals that of some midsize sedans. With a lot of metal to haul around, the Dart may not be the quickest in its segment, but an ultra-frugal optional engine at least helps keep mileage competitive. This may be the last year for the current Dart before a badly needed update, which should help it pick up some of the style points that it's lost to competitors such as Honda and Hyundai. | |
