Driven: 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
2011 Mercedes Benz SLS AMG - Mercedes Benz Sport Coupe Review - Automobile Magazine
One look, and you'll forget the SLR.

Chronologically and alphabetically, the 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is a direct follow-up to the SLR, the supercar that was the offspring of a seven-year fling between Mercedes and McLaren. In reality, however, the SLS is the Mercedes that's supposed to make you forget about the SLR and hark back five decades to the magical 300SL Gullwing. One look - from any angle - at an SLS with the doors ajar is akin to being slipped a dose of Rohypnol. Memories of the SLR simply fade away.inline_mediumwraptextright32006289/reviews/driven/1002_2011_mercedes_benz_sls_amg1002_12_z+2011_mercedes-Benz_sLS_aMG+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue

2010 Ford Transit Connect XLT Van - Ford Fullsize Van Review - Automobile Magazine
Hauls like a moving van, drives like a Focus.

Like most people my age, I absolutely love not paying for stuff, especially when that stuff comes from my parents. So when the folks said they were visiting Illinois to check on the house they have for sale (a nearly new, five-bedroom, brick-front home in Arlington Heights that's recently been reduced - you're welcome, Dad) I saw an opportunity to literally clean house.inline_mediumwraptextright32017134/reviews/editors_notebook/1001_2010_ford_transit_connect_xlt_van1001_04_z+2010_ford_transit_connect_xLT_van+storage.jpgTrue
