(March 21, 2013) We were impressed with the totally redesigned Hyundai Azera during a short driving event earlier this year. Our admiration increased after a 1,300-mile road trip that included long stretches of interstate highway as well as miles of winding, narrow mountain roads between Lynchburg, Tenn., and Goldsboro, N.C.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. — A gift certificate to a Skip Barber driving school or a pass to the Richard Petty Experience may be the ultimate stocking stuffer gift for the guy who loves sports cars or just wants to go real fast on a NASCAR track.

But what if the object of your holiday giving has a macho sport utility parked in the driveway and his passion is more for truck-based vehicles than race cars? Land Rover has just the ticket — a gift certificate to the Land Rover Experience Driving School.

More than once through the mountains of Colorado and into Yellowstone National Park and across Wyoming cattle country into the Black Hills of Dakota we heard praise for the 2009 Toyota Camry from the four people it was transporting on a 2,500-mile vacation late last fall. While our back-seat passengers commented favorably more than once on the roomy interior and comfortable seats, we were equally impressed with the gas mileage from the 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder engine powering our LE trim-line sedan.
