    The Weekly Driver #19 . . . Driving Greatness For $18,000

    Driving greatness doesn't have to mean driving luxury. A few weeks ago, I drove the most successful, and thus arguably the best car ever made. It's sold more than the Ford Model T, Volkswagen Bug and Golf and more than the Ford F-150 Pick-up truck.

    The Great One is the Toyota Corolla, and with more than 33 million sold and with a price tag of about $18,000 how could anyone argue with the price point and legend of the Corolla? It's been around for more than 40 years and it's still going strong. The Weekly Driver's review of the 2009 Toyota Corolla is the featured review of this issue.

    The Weekly Driver #18 . . . . Ford's Model T, Car of The Century, Turns 100

    Despite super horsepower engines, extravagantly plush interiors and any exotic or luxury option you can think of, no car comes close to the impact of the car of the century — the Ford Model T.

    Without a doubt, it's the vehicle that's had more influence than any other vehicle. And a post in this issue provides details of Ford's year-long celebration of the iconic car. Plenty of Model Ts are still around, although not too many are daily (or weekly) drivers.

    A series of blogs from The Weekly Driver's journey to the Tour de Georgia are also included in this issue with the regular selection of new reviews and other automotive content.
