Mitsubishi Outlander Sport

June 28th of the year 2018 I had completed another trip around the sun for the 35th time to take another notch on the age timeline of 36. I spent it with the two women I love most, my mom and sister in Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina. During this trip I had the pleasure of experiencing the all new 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport SEL.
At the top of its class, Outlander Sport SEL impresses with HID headlights and the available Touring Package with advanced safety features and a stunning panoramic glass roof.

RELAX

I sure did. The beach was so amazing that I didnt even get in a car the whole trip except the last night to go to dinner for my birthday. Heading back to Charlotte I really tested out the technology and engine features to see what this Outlander Sport could really do.

#CamryNeed4Speed

It's no surprise that the Toyota Camry has been the number one selling car in America for that last 17 years. With the all newly redesigned 2018 model it is turning more heads than ever. Toyota & I partnered together during the Monster Energy Nascar All-Star Race weekend to showcase the XSE edition which is the official pace care for the Nascar races.

The Camry XSE V6 is the range-topping trim, slotted above the XLE and Hybrid models. It has the sportiest styling and backs that up with solid performance. The Camry XSE is also well equipped and comes standard with a host of safety and convenience technologies. It has a high predicted reliability rating, as well as plenty of advanced driver assistance features that can help you avoid a collision. These include standard lane departure warning and pedestrian detection.

New exterior design

Camry XSE’s powerful shape and captivating style will announce your arrival—with authority. The muscular shape is defined by a pleasing mix of sweeping curves and chiseled surfaces. Sport side rocker panels and the integrated rear spoiler emphasize the coiled stance and redirect airflow to enhance efficiency and performance. It’s an irresistible symphony of flowing lines and sharp, unconstrained edges that always makes an impact. Let the aggressive lines of the available gloss-black grille draw you in. The available sport mesh insert projects a finely machined appearance. It’s just one of many exquisite details found on Camry. The available dual exhaust with quad chrome tips dishes out a powerful look, matched only by the sporty sound. It’s sure to leave a lasting impression. Add to the allure with the lustrous black hue found on Camry's available 19-in. alloy wheels. The deep color dramatically contrasts the exquisite machined finish of the V-shaped spokes. Low-profile 40-series tires complete the distinctive look while providing a precise, confidence-inspiring drive.

Panoramic roof with front power tilt/slide moonroof and Cockpit Red leather-trimmed seats

Camry’s interior fits your needs and feeds your desires with pleasing finishes and textures. It meticulously blends colors and materials, such as the vibrant look and feel of the available Cockpit Red leather-trimmed interior. Brighten each day with Camry XSE’s available panoramic glass roof with front power tilt/slide moonroof, which invites in more than twice the light of a traditional moonroof. A power-retractable sunshade helps you stay in control if things start to heat up. It’s a practical and stylish cabin with an unrivaled attention to detail.

 

Our day at the race was nothing short of amazing. First we took 2 laps around Charlotte Motor Speedway with Toyota driver Martin Truex Jr. in the Official Pace Car of Nascar a Toyota Camry. Then we had a few meet & greets and then up to the suite with some executives that work for Toyota to watch the race from turn 4. What a blast to ride, drive & experience all around. Thank you for everything Toyota, and always remember #LetsGoPlaces.

Hell's Kitchen's Slice of Heaven

Longing for an unedited view of New York? Welcome to Kimpton Ink48 Hotel, where they aren’t bound by clichéd expectations. Accessibly located in Midtown’s hip Hell’s Kitchen, they always welcome creative types who want a genuine Manhattan immersion complete with micro-bars, flea markets, underground donut shops and other hidden gems to uncover.

Experience bold design and loft-like comfort in their 222 guestrooms and suites. The majority of those guestrooms and suites showcase views of Manhattan or the Hudson River (or both) through oversized windows — most have sunset vistas, too. High ceilings feel more like a loft apartment than a hotel room. Many offer deep soaker tubs. And if you really want to dial up the drama, there’s our Heaven Over Hell Penthouse Suite, which must be seen to be believed.

Situated atop of the Ink48 Hotel, the Press Lounge offers some of Manhattan’s most beautiful and dramatic panoramic views. Refined elegance comes in subtle luxuries: a glass walled interior space, seasonal cocktails, an extensive wine list, seasonally inspired small plates and informed and welcoming service.

Innovation is on the scene, too. Witness Gotham West Market, a day-and-night destination with artisan vendors and communal dining. Of course all of Manhattan is within your reach, as well as the renovated Javits Center and the under-construction Hudson Yards.
