How We Roll

Thanks to the Social Media Club of St. Louis and Ford Motor Company, for inviting me to attend the online press conference and reception at the 2012 St. Louis Auto Show.  I'm not exactly sure why they invited me, since I don't know the first thing about automotive technology, but hey, I do own a camera, so I took several shots of automobiles that caught my eye.  Over 500 vehicles were on display from 25 different manufacturers and the general consensus from dealers regarding the state of the auto industry was very positive.  From what I saw, the most popular trends in the car business can easily be summed up with one phrase:  "Meaner and greener."  

That's how we Rolls... Royce!

Ford Fusion.  Mine just turned 6, last Sunday.

Zero to 60 in less than 4 seconds.  One quick Cadillac.

I was thinkin'... you cant show a Cadillac and not a Lincoln.  Sweet.

Maybe a little Porsche influence on this new Beetle?

My wife likes the color.  I like the whole Camaro.

Normally, you'll only see the back of a Ferrari.

The 289 Mustang always had a great hole shot.  You could bank on it.

Lotus.  Mere words unnecessary.

Sorry kids, no Kool-Aid in the Bentley.

Rolls on into this beauty.

Corvette.  The great American sports car.

I'm dreaming of an RRRRR.  (Rock Road Reporter Rolls Royce).

Thanks for the invite!   See ya next year.
