The 2017 Cadillac CTS-V packs luxury amenities into an American-made ride built for cruisers and adrenaline junkies alike. Euphoric things occur upon pushing the ignition button of a 640-horsepower brute. Yes, gear heads, 6-4-0 ponies! A beatific roar leaps from the quad exhaust. The stout microfiber-covered steering wheel feels just right. Stupendous racing Recaro seats squeeze around you like a …
Walk into almost any modern home and in the living room is the centerpiece: a flat screen TV. Gone are the days of the CRT TVs or televisions with more wood paneling than actual screen. Now, you have LEDs, OLEDs and the brand new QLEDs to choose from; and believe me, a couple of letters make all the difference. For …
My mom always says that everybody needs to be a regular somewhere. The team behind hit concept HG Sply Co think the folks in Rockwall do, too.

Contemplate how upgrading your grooming …
During my impressionable youth, a new Mercedes-Benz SL Roadster was the epitome of an iconic daily driver dream car to put in your driveway. It possessed terrific looks and a removable top.

When the Four Seasons Resort and Club Dallas at Las Colinas opened its signature Texas-themed restaurant LAW last spring, it added a great Lone Star touch to one of the area’s most popular resorts. Now, a year later, the resort has transformed the former Bar 19 into LAW’s perfect complement, the rebelliously Texan OUTLAW Taproom. Inspired by a rich history …
Last August, we showcased the exhilarating Infiniti’s Q50 Red Sport sports sedan with its 400 horses of fun. Infiniti didn’t rest on their well-earned laurels by unveiling the equally thrilling 2017 Q60 Red Sport 400 AWD coupe. It epitomizes what a sexy two-door should possess; mouth-watering looks, upscale luxury, stupendous power and handling. To wit, I had the pleasure of …
