Greenhouse Gas Emission – It’s Not Really Our Fault

In light of the demonstration by Australian school students and others on Friday, March 15th 2019, I went looking for some information regards Australia’s contribution to Global Warming.

Fuel Price Up by 20c per litre – How Much Profit is That?

Fuel Price Up by 20c per litre – How Much Profit is That?

Oil Companies make an extra 3.4 billion dollars during the high fuel price cycle? I’m continually angry at the lack of attention by the ACCC, various State Governments and consumers at large with regards the fuel price rises. The fuel price rises are ridiculous, to say the least, and almost

Jeep Wrangler Gladiator Revealed Prior to LA Motor Show

Most manufacturers are sneaky. They have internal leaks – just like politicians leak – when they want the automotive community to know what they’ve got planned. It goes something like this. “Hey Joe, it’s, Mike Man … well, you know it’s me, Joe. Just wanted to let you know that

It’s not a Jeep Scrambler, It’s a Jeep Gladiator.

Jeep pickup truck apparently will be named Jeep Gladiator – Russell will be pleased.

Years ago, I travelled to the USA (Florida actually) for a

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my new website thecarguy.com.au!

I know that there’s a lot of websites that offer car reviews, car road tests, opinions on various cars and the like. What makes this site different is that I’m not going to bore you with technical information about the various cars that I review.

I’ve been in the car business for over 39 years. I’ve read the motoring magazines cover to cover. I’ve read the online reviews until my eyes were square. Everywhere that I go, I find motoring journalists talking about car speeds – 0 – 100 km per hour, standing ¼ times, the inclination of this and that at 150klm per hour on a 12.5% gradient curve, in rainy weather – and other stuff that bores me no end.

thecarguy.com.au is taking a different path on the journey to helping you purchase a new car. I’ll do my best to advise you on what I consider to be the most important information when it comes to that major decision to purchase a car. Interior room, features of the car, fuel economy, safety, service prices, resale and lots more. I’ll tell you what I like about a particular car and as importantly, what I don’t like, to find at least to be less than I think a car should have. .

And I’ll ask for your opinion. Take some pics of what you’re driving and tell me and our audience what you particularly like or dislike about your car. Because besides prospective new car buyers, there’s a lot of people who’ll read your comments as used car buyers.

So, jump on board, strap yourself in and let’s start out on the journey with The Car Guy.
