What times we live in … For the first time in the United States, the sporty prancing cat is entering the diesel market. We thought just an SUV from Jaguar was forward-thinking and enabled the company to stay current with other luxury brand offerings, such as the Audi Q5 and BMW X3 / X5 / X6 and Porsche Macan. The company has the ability to share its platforms and technical Read more
When the Sprinter hit the shores of the United States about 15 years ago, American laborers fell in love with the van with Euro flair. Driving a van with a high roof height proved invaluable to a cadre of plumbers, electricians and flower delivery people.

The Cadillac CTS-V is a vehicle in the same company as the Mercedes E-Class and BMW 5-Series. Although it has American roots, it has proven itself on the Nuremburg Ring as one of the finest-handling vehicles in the world. Unfortunately, its price tag is also out-of-this-world.

It is hard to believe that the Toyota Prius has been around for almost 20 years (in Japan, the vehicle was on sale over 20 years ago!). But there is a reason for its longevity: The Prius is a gas saver. Even in today’s world of $2 gasoline, paying less at the pump always feels good.
