Who did the test?

news.pickuptrucks.com powered by cars.com conducted a plethora tests to find out which one-ton truck was their champion. Don’t get me wrong they did a sizable amount of testing, and I respect them for doing some real-world tests. It’s all very well comparing numbers on paper, although sometimes it’s just better to test in real life. But there was something missing. A RAM. To me, that’s like having an arm wrestling competition with one person, winning by default.

The Touareg is the biggest option at the moment but is probably losing out on a market share that needs the 3rd row. Even if you don’t need all the seats, the amount of room that kids take up is unreal, by the time you load up; a diaper bag, or school bag, a stroller, the favorite teddy that is the size of a giant mammoth you won at the fair, then there is the favorite ‘blankies’ they can’t live without.

Every once in a while, I get to drive and test out a bunch of new vehicles before they hit the market. I was fortunate enough to get to drive the 2018 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Carbon 65, a special edition released by Chevy to commemorate 65 years of Corvette.

Farmers and colors

Do you know a farmer? Chances are, if you live in Wyoming, you probably do or you are a farmer. You probably also know, that farmers are very proud of the color of their tractor. Are you a farmer that brags about the color of your equipment? Not the case? (pun intended) I don’t believe you because I drive past your ranch, and there they are, the tractor, the swather, and baler, all the same color. What color is your barn again?

Is this Toyota finally coming out of its shell? Having previously worked at a Toyota dealership many moons ago, I often heard people describe Toyota’s as boring but reliable. Well, how about now you can have not-boring-at-all and reliable. The C-HR is such a funky fun car. Yes, Toyota might be late on the arrival of a quirky fun car but nevertheless, it’s here, and look at it. It’s far from a bland Corolla that maybe your grandma had back in the day. This crossover looks right at home in the mountains with angles all over the place.
