Since I have worked at Volkswagen, I have been shooting a lot of cars. You know what is funny about that statement? I said it the other day to the finance manager and he had no idea what I was talking about. He actually thought that I was going to be using guns and shooting…

My First Trip In My VW This past month, I did something that I said I would never do. I sold my 1999 Jeep Cherokee Classic. It had 265,000 miles on it and still ran like a champ. I will miss her incredibly. But, I can promise you that I would not have made this…
