Bruce Meyer: A good guy gets recognition

Bruce Meyer, one of the best ambassadors of the collector-car hobby, will be honored as an "Automotive Icon" at the 30th anniversary of the Dana Point Concours d'Elegance, June 23-24, 2012, in Dana Point, Calif. Meyer's list of boosterism for the car hobby is long and impressive. He was the founding chairman of the Petersen Automotive Museum and founder of the museum's support group the Checkered Flag 200, he was inducted into the Dry Lakes Hall of Fame and the Grand National Roadster Show Hall of Fame, and he has driven in the Italian Mille Miglia, the French Tour Auto, the Goodwood Festival of Speed and on the Bonneville Salt Flats in the United States.

2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee revealed!

It's coming in June, and now we finally know what it looks like: Chrysler released images of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee on Wednesday afternoon. The Grand Cherokee is pretty much as expected--a modern take on the iconic flagship off-roader with an edgier grille and headlights, more sculpted door panels and updated wheel wells. The 2011 Grand Cherokee was first shown at the New York auto show a year ago, and since then, the Jeep has been touted as one of the most critical vehicles for the new Chrysler, which emerged from a brief bankruptcy last year.
