Autoweek America Adventure: On the road to Las Vegas

Who doesn't like a drive in the fall, particularly with a bunch of other car guys? It's a kick in the backside, right? And when the plan is for it to take about six days and lead you to places unknown along the route, there's a sense of adventure we can get our heads and hearts around.

1990s supercars

We weren't particular surprised by Chevrolet's unveiling of a Tahoe Police Concept Car at SEMA, as it seemed a perfectly natural use for the truck, and we weren't surprised today when news broke that the Tahoe was going to be offered in law-enforcement spec to police agencies around the country. With stiff competition from the Dodge Durango and the tremendously popular Ford Explorer PPV, a cop-spec 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe, makes perfect sense. The Chevrolet Tahoe PPV will debut with the new fuel-efficient 5.3-liter direct-injection V8 engine, which produces 335 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque.
