VW Taigun featured image

“Hey lady, you’re driving on the wrong side of your car!” “Yeah, I know!” I laughed, and the guy did, too, as he walked down Colorado Boulevard, pushing his baby in a stroller with his partner.

November 12, 2020 by Elizabeth Blackstock Leave a Comment

2022 Volkswagen Taos

The 2022 Volkswagen Taos proves that size doesn’t always matter. Just because it’s a compact SUV doesn’t mean the VW Taos doesn’t pack a big punch.
