The cross-over style of vehicle is an interesting and growing trend. We here at the House of Crunch freely admit to leaping at the Pacifica instead when we were shopping for mini-vans. They are just way sexier than their sliding doored cousins, there is no escaping it. And if sexy is important to you when […]

Grand Californian Dreamin, Disney Style
Our May trip to Disneyland was an interesting trip for so many reasons. Being a media trip, it gave me many opportunities we would not have had being a regular family vacation. It was also Tara’s first time there and Caity had been almost the exact same age when we first took the TWO […]
2013 Murano Platinum – Style
Thanks to the people at Nissan, the kids and I had the luxury of enjoying the gorgeous 2013 Nissan Murano – PLATINUM edition – throughout their spring break. Talk about riding in style. This car had it in spades. My husband and I have been curious about the Murano since the line came out. We […]

Taking to the Road with the 2012 Honda Pilot
We could not have managed a camping trip without the amazing 2012 Honda Pilot Touring edition. This SUV gave us the room for all our stuff without taking away the comfort of the passengers – my family. This is great vehicle for people like me who love the feel of a truck with all the […]
Gettin Tough with a Big Red Truck
Being an urban dweller that is not in the construction industry, driving a pickup truck was not on my radar. However, I like the idea of ‘big’ and have caught myself gazing at the Ford F150’s in my ‘hood. I therefore could hardly say no to test one out for a few days. I picked […]
