Default Sources for Automotive News?

Where do you guys usually go for online automotive news? Not saying reviews per say (C&D still seems best for that IMO) but the day to day random stuff. Historically I've used TheDrive, AutoBlog & Jalopnik. However I stopped using Jalopnik a while back. Many reasons but mostly the extra heavy political bias they barely pretend to even hide. AutoBlog was next to go. Again, the bias is just dripping, and half their articles are just cut/pasted from other sources (almost always with same slant). And it's been getting worse and worse at TheDrive as well. In addition to agenda driven bias, most of the writing at TheDrive of late has just been absolutely awful. The color commentary seems designed for people with no interest in automobiles, and the technical errors continually made are laughable.

I’m on another forum. They have a news section. One of the admins/mods, whatever, posts everything about everything from various links from all over the world. It’s how I knew what a GR Yaris was, when it was spied, in 2019, in testing before formally announced. At which point I followed every step, all the way to getting my GRC CE like you.

Social media for the most part, the algorithm always seems to keep me up to speed, lol.
