The drama that is the North American International Auto Show is beginning to build momentum at a tremendous pace. We have attended two auto show preview events in as many days at Ford and DCX and would love to give you some inside scoop, but you already know we can't...yet. The crown jewel of the show is the North American Car and Truck of the Year awards, the winners of which will be announced on January 7, 2007 during press preview days.
Three cars and three trucks are chosen as finalists from the list of eligible vehicles, consisting of 12 cars and 14 trucks this year. The finalists are determined by a group of 49 jurors made up of automotive journalists from a wide range of media outlets. In a new process for 2007, jurors will vote a second time on the finalists to determine a winner. In years past, the three vehicles with the most votes were the finalists and the top vote getter was the winner.
