Watching this video is kind of like being back on the playground as a child (stay with me here). Or, it’s kind of like being the middle child, or as a participating athlete in any level of competitive sports. To clarify my reference, it’s a moment we’ve all encountered. You’re doing whatever activity it is, […] More »

This is another video from the guys at ThirdHonk.com, and it’s a good one. There’s a lot of just good, old fashioned roll racing on empty highways. Most of these cars can boogie.

I’ve spent a bit of time in past posts showing my appreciation for GM and their unique dgaf attitude when it comes to mixing PR/advertising with long-winded speeches. Most automaker media tends to shy away from disclosing the smallest, most minute technical details in favor of emotional driving phrases and lifestyle sells. It’s only natural […] More »
