2026 GMC Sierra EV Denali Extended Range
Let’s face it; electric-powered vehicles are here to stay. Probably. If you’re old school like me, it took a while acknowledging the impending demise of petrol fuel rides.

After the Round – The Mont Fort Worth
There’s an old southern idiom my grandparents used all the time. When I hadn’t seen them for a couple of weeks, they would tell me: “you sure are growing like a weed.” The same can be said for Fort Worth. Over the last several years, Panther City and its surrounding areas have exploded with growth […]
