Summary List Placement Cadillac has been on its heels for a few years. The 2018 launch of a completely redesigned Lincoln Navigator was a smash for Cadillac's rival in the luxury full-size SUV market. At one point, Lincoln was struggling to meet dealer demand, the reviews were rapturous, and it was clear that Cadillac needed to up its game with the hotly anticipated Escalade,...

Summary List Placement Here's how the sequence usually goes for me when it comes to reviewing full-size pickup trucks. First, I sample the regular gas-powered version, and because I like big pickups, I often end up a happy guy. But then I spend some time with the diesel-engined model, and I forget all about the gas-burner. Diesel and pickups! Two great tastes that go...

I took my first flight on Spirit Airlines on Monday, traveling from Chicago to New York on one of the carrier's most competitive routes to see how the infamous carrier maintains a no-frills business model during a pandemic. Spirit isn't blocking middle seats but is requiring face coverings to fly and enhancing cleaning practices to ensure peace of mind when it comes to health...

The Original Cannabis Cafe, formerly called the Lowell Cafe, is now open in Los Angeles, California. The cafe allows customers to order food, sip on nonalcoholic beverages, and legally consume marijuana all in one place.  I tried the Smash Burger at the Original Cannabis Cafe and it was one of the best burgers I've ever tasted.

I tasted every dessert available at Burger King over the course of a few weeks. Overall, I was least impressed with the Strawberry Shake, Vanilla Hand Spun Shake, and Vanilla Soft Serve since they were sort of plain.  The Chocolate Oreo Shake and Chocolate Sundae With M&M's were both tasty and I enjoyed their crunchy toppings and chocolate flavors.  The Dutch Apple Pie, which cost...

Warning: There are mild spoilers ahead for "Klaus." Netflix is releasing its first full-length original animated movie about the origins of Santa on Friday, November 15.  It's one of the year's best animated films for its sweet story of friendship and self-discovery and its push to revitalize 2D animation for a younger generation. Jason Schwartzman's postman Jesper will give you vibes of Emperor Kuzco...

The past decade, 2010 to 2019, was full of both impressive and lacking albums by artists.  While "Lemonade" by Beyoncé won over critics, "Love?" by Jennifer Lopez disappointed them, according to review aggregator Metacritic, which pulls reviews from sites like Pitchfork, A.V. Club, and Rolling Stones magazine.  An album given a score of 90 or above made the best list, and any album with...

Amtrak is easily the slowest way to travel from coast to coast, but I did it anyway.  The journey was delayed by more than 24 hours thanks to a missed connection in Chicago.  Still, the sights were so beautiful — and the conversations with fellow passengers so enjoyable — that I'd repeat the journey every time I travel, if I had the time.  Visit...

"Gemini Man," starring Will Smith as a hitman on the run from his younger self, has a story that comes nowhere close its technical achievement. Director Ang Lee shot the movie at 120 frames per second, which delivers the sharpest picture I've ever seen in a movie theater. But the story is dull and unoriginal. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.   The most frustrating...

"It Chapter 2" is a sequel to 2017's "It" — which is an adaptation of the Stephen King novel of the same name.  The sequel picks up several decades after the first film, and features grown-up members of the Losers Club returning to their hometown of Derry to fight Pennywise.  "It Chapter 2" is definitely horrifying, but its message feels a little bit hollow,...
