Will Chrysler really ditch passenger cars for trucks , and get in bed with Nissan ? Our bet is yes, but no telling if the resulting love child will have Chrysler pizzazz, Nissan quality, or John Edwards' eyes. The new Mazda6 is ready to take on the Camry , Accord, Malibu, and the other mid-size titans. Also, the Ford Fusion . Erm, maybe that last one was not the plan. New for 2009, the Infiniti...

No, not literally. The automaker is doing quite well, thank you, despite the sharp slump in the U.S. market. But we’ve been invited to watch Honda crash a white 2008 Honda Accord, as part of its federal safety ratings test. Over the years, I’ve been witness to a number of live crash tests, and I have to admit they’re always an amazing thing to watch. There’s the final countdown, the whir as the...
