Re-post car care advice
For example, in winter, do a series about how best to wash a car during the winter, including top-rated necessary equipment from foaming washers, to applicators, to drying cloths: basically, lessons in winter car care. I vaguely recall that you ran such a series - maybe it was a link to another site - a couple of winters ago but I allow as how my memory might be faulty.

Improve articles’ accuracy
Almost every Autoblog article seems to have inaccuracies these days. For example, I’ve seen numerous articles about transverse-layout FWD-based cars using ZF’s 8HP transmission.
The 8HP is only compatible with longitudinal engines. Aisin-Warner (Toyota subsidiary) makes the 8-speed transmissions used in almost every FWD-based car with an 8 speed transmission that isn’t a Ford or GM product. That includes every single BMW product that’s based on the UKL or FAAR platform (all MINIs, 2-series Active Tourer, new 1-series (not available in US), X1/X2, and 2-series Gran Coupe). VW also uses the same transmission in the US-spec Arteon, Atlas, Tiguan, Jetta.…

Like-Model Comparison When Ranking Vehicles, i.e. Full-Size with Full-Size
I recently read an article by Jeremy Korzeniewski regarding pickup trucks likely to pass the 200,000 mile mark. As is the case these days, media covers only what is current, in this sense, meaning newer vehicles within a five-year span. Additionally, he included full-size trucks with mid-size trucks. This is like comparing apples with oranges. The two types of models have varying load capabilities regardless of manufacturer. The research should reflect a span of vehicles beyond the "five-year" span. Maintenance of any vehicle is the true basis of how long it will last. Personally, I ordered an F-150 Heritage in…

Tundra i-Force Max Article by Jon Ramsey
That article is causing a misinformation storm, now making it's way to YouTube. Toyota nor any other source, has mentioned the offering of a manual transmission.
The next Tundra is not even a 2020 model, yet he calls it a 2020 Tundra. That is the same truck still.
Jonathon Ramsey has already been warned and needs to correct his misleading article.
You guys are hurting your credibility by writing careless articles like these. Fix it ASAP!

Your Uber Accident article is less than accurate.
Your Uber Accident article is less than accurate as Uber does require drivers to carry Rideshare Insurance. They also offer Rideshare Insurance to those who didn't have it before it became a requirement.
Until it became a requirement, Rideshare companies required all drivers to carry general auto insurance which is confirmed when they sign on. While it is a requirement in so.e states it is not a requirement in all states.
One other point to be made is that because it is not a requirement in many states, not enough companies carrying Rideshare Insurance as yet, therefore, drivers are sheered…

Suspected plagiarism
Hi there, just wanted to bring to your attention an article that was recently posted on DriveTribe and received quite a bit of attention. However, there are more than a few profound similarities between the Drivetribe article and an article posted on Autoblog about a year ago. I’ll leave both links below, but it was quite alarming to see...
Article where several quotes and paragraphs were taken from the original:

Make corrections
For the 2010 Infiniti G37, the article states that all are RWD and all are available in manual transmissions. This is incorrect, the X and XS models are AWD and only come in automatic transmission, no manual transmission available.

Ban "The Car Expert" please
I've been coming to autoblog for a VERY long time and this guy has been nothing but a troll for YEARS and posts in almost all article inflammatory comments. I've mostly ignored it but it getting seriously annoying and it baffles me that nothing has been done for so long.
Please review his comment history and you'll see he has never had anything worthwhile to share, only hate. You don't need users like this.
