Apr 6th, 2015 |
|
If food trucks are about as hipster as one can get, what about a food truck as reimagined through a French lens?

The last time we sat down with Cadillac marketing boss Uwe Ellinghaus, the idiosyncratic, outspoken German was calling Cad’s German competitors sterile, pronouncing that he didn’t care about customers who had left the brand, claiming that XTS buyers’ money was just as green as ATS buyers’, and put the kibosh on Route 66 in future […]

Apr 3rd, 2015 |
|
When Land Rover pulled the sheet off of the Range Rover SVAutobiography, its new $200,490 range-topping model, we noted that the rich Rover is the ultimate SUV—at least until the SUVs from Rolls-Royce and Bentley arrive.

More often than not, though, beyond their invariably off-kilter eyewear and well-tailored clothing, they’re about as fascinating as you or me, or at the very least they’re rather shy people.
