Every year I’m amazed at how many of the country’s auto shows are getting to
debut new models. Before only Detroit premiered the biggest and baddest. Then it Chicago started to debut more and more
carmakers babies. Then there was New York and Los Angeles and don’t forget Geneva and Paris. So when I heard Anaheim,
in November, is the place to debut the new Hummer H3, Jaguar X-Type Sportswagon, Vovlo XC 90 V8 and Kia Sportage as
James R. Healey points out in his USA Today story, I thought covering the auto industry just got more complicated. I
think automakers will just start debuting cars when they’re ready at the next earliest auto show and no longer wait for
the “big” ones.
