My Husband’s Touring Trips When my husband gets a long break, he often sets off alone on a long-distance driving tour.

His dream, he says, is to one day go on a nonstop touring trip for about a month (laughs). When you hear “touring,” you might picture a fun...

Why I Felt Uneasy About Dealer Salespeople The other day, I wrote an article titled “Often, I can’t tell if dealer salespeople really want to sell or not,” and it received more feedback than I expected, including comments like “I’ve had similar experiences” and “Maybe it’s just how the dealer system works.” On social media, I also saw posts saying “I went to the dealer, but they completely ignored me.” It made me realize that...
