Robin drives the new for 2014 Toyota Tundra
We like trucks. They entertain and work. And nowadays they provide comfort while getting the work done. Truly remarkable. Recently, I used a Toyota Tundra to tow my boat in to its winter storage resting place. Then I wrote about it.

And, I took pictures!
Robin tests and laps the BMW M3 Lime Rock Park Edition
The most recent BMWs have gone adrift of the companies beloved core values: quick, connected, and communicative machinery. But the M3 remained a hold out, due largely to its last generation chassis architecture. As a last hurrah, BMW built the Lime Rock Park Edition M3. A brilliant, more hard edged M3 that really hustles. I genuinely love the thing.
When push comes to shove, I prefer my more raw and passionate E46 M3, but you cannot deny the clinical goodness of the LRP car. And the engine, oh the engine!

All,
This is fun. Fantastic V12 racy raucous raspy revving revolutions! I seriously love this one.

Robin drives and tests the Aston Martin Rapide S
Few companies in the world command stature like Aston Martin. The name conjures up images of grace, power, and elegance. The Rapide S, their four-door, is shockingly beautiful. This is a sedan! Take your kids to school, go to the market, carry luggage, and stop traffic. Name another sedan that manages that?
Do faster cars exist, definitely. In fact, from a data driven mindset, this car doesn’t keep up. Look further however and incredible intangibles appear.
This car makes my heart sing. What else matters?
Robin drives the Jaguar XJR
The Formula 1 season drew to a close last week, sadly. But we’re here to keep you entertained! Recently I got a chance to spend sometime in the Jaguar XJR and I loved the thing! Looked great, sounded fierce, yet maintained its elegance. Well done Jaguar!

Robin tests the Mercedes CLA250
The all new CLA is the first Mercedes Benz sold in the US with front wheel drive. I was initially shocked and disappointed, but it delivers good performance in a pretty package. It’s also quick! Impressively so for FWD. Though I wouldn’t recommend one to Lewis or Nico. Read here on roadandtrack.com.
Robin Tests the Ferrari F12berlinetta
So in Formula 1 terms Ferrari isn’t doing so hot, but in any other way they’re simply the business. I tested one and accelerated faster than I ever have before. It became a story on Roadandtrack.com.
