You know fall has arrived when the sun starts going down earlier. Hell, yesterday night I was in the office and at around 7:05 p.m. New York had gone fully dark.
Summer is over, folks.
That means a bunch of things but as you may expect being that this is AutoSpies, we're a bit keen on the upcoming North American Car/Truck/Utility of the Year awards. While we take them with a grain of salt, one thing is certain: Some folks do pay attention to the winners.
