The THOR’S Hammer of Recreational Vehicles – Daimler’s 6X6 Zetros

Posted by Roman Mica - March 26, 2011 - Inside Automotive
MBZ Zetros 6X6 tfl 1

 Fact: all Hummer H2 owners have inadequacy issues. Fact: no motor-homes exist based on H1, H2 or H3 architectureFact: The Daimler Zetros is one of the few military-grade motor-homes and can easily CRUSH a Hummer. Sorry, but those are the facts. Look, it’s not my fault. Blame Daimler for building this beast that puts out [...]

 Photo via Volvoartsession.com “Ten street artists were painting, spraying and designing a snow-white Volvo S60 during a five day period. All took place in front of a white dropback canvas at Zurich main railway station. During this live art happening, a high-end camera shot pictures every 10th second. The result is now published on YouTube.” [...]

Formula One 2011 Season’s information and Predictions

F1 TFL 1

 We at TFLCar.com simply love Formula One racing. It is something so technical, so rapid and so challenging that some of the staff kicks family and children out of the abode just to watch a race with no distractions. With that in mind, I bet you’re asking the following question: Is he, (the clown of [...]

2011 Volkswagen Touareg TDI – One of the Smartest SUVs to Own

Posted by Nathan Adlen - March 25, 2011 - SUV/Crossover, TDI, Volkswagen
2011 VW Touareg TDI 1

 “Dude, your Touareg is faster than my tater-tot!” – – Some shirtless guy who chatted me up at a 7-11 after I dusted his Mazda RX8 at a light. I have NO idea why he calls his car, “tater-tot.” He smelled funny too. Let’s not mix words here. SUVs and big crossovers are inefficiently powered. There [...]

The most affordable Audi is a Table

Audi-foosball

 This is one of those public interest stories that will resonate mostly with Audi fans. Have you always wanted a new, limited edition Audi product but couldn’t quite swing the price? Fork up $18,300 and own a piece of Audi-goodness… sort of. Audi’s design team took two years to take their design ethos and transfer [...]

 Ah, I remember the first time I read a spy report about the Chevy S10 replacement. I was thrilled to hear about dual overhead cam four and five cylinder engines and liked the idea of more space. Sadly, the current Chevrolet Colorado never quite lived up to my expectations. Still it’s a good, simple little [...]

CTS Coupe 11 vail tfl 1

 Cadillac is presenting the 2011 Vail Film Festival and is doing something more novel than simply throwing their beefy moniker around.

Child seat tfl

 This is an important bit of information for any parent of a child under two-years of age – or folks who are thinking about having a child. Today, several safety agencies posted their assertion that child safety seats should be used for a longer period of time. Two full years of age, or when the [...]

Own Oprah Winfrey’s Bentley on eBay

Op Bent TFL 1

  Man I’m glad my wife doesn’t troll eBay Motors often – otherwise she might trade in the kids’ trust funds and our measly savings to bid on Oprah Winfrey’s 1996 Bentley Azure. With a “Buy it Now” price of $67,900 – I’m surprised no one has snatched it up.  According to the eBay ad [...]

The Affordable Little Aston Martin Cygnet Preview

Posted by Roman Mica - March 21, 2011 - Inside Automotive
Cygnet-Paris-1 tfl

 Aston Martin must have felt the need to raise their fleet’s overall mpg. So, rather than produce an electric Vantage, they borrowed a Toyota/Scion IQ and made it look like a 2/3rd scale model, after it hit a wall – – – hard. I am speechless. Roman Mica, (TFLCar.com head honcho) is speechless. Aston Martin [...]

 Not very excited by cars? Just looking for a comfortable, economical sedan with long-term durability? The 2011 compact Toyota Corolla might be for you. It’s hard to go wrong with the front-drive Corolla, which in various forms over the years has outsold the Ford Model T and rear-engine Volkswagen Beetle. The Corolla arrived as a [...]

Real Housewives Will Adore the 2011 Range Rover Sport Supercharged

RR Sport SC 11 TFL1

 Not to be outdone by a bunch of soulless reality housewives, I have dipped my toe in the pool of narcissism as well. Strangely, it was not with a Mercedes Benz, Audi or even a BMW. I was stricken by vanity’s kiss in a 2011 Range Rover Sport. Oh the shame, oh the humility. On [...]
