Yesterday, Alanis told us that the Dodge Challenger has seen its sales double since the car launched.

Cadillac recently said it would be ditching its lame naming system, in favor of actual names. It also ditched its old CEO, Johan De Nysschen, back in 2018. Perhaps incidentally, Cadillac also said that it expected to sell more cars in the States this year than last year for the first time since 2013. Read […]

But the real problem wasn’t a stalling economy or a total crash in demand. It was a poorly explained and little-known change […]
