In this week’s episode of “The Drive with Alan Taylor,” automotive journalist BJ Killeen joins Taylor to chat about their visit to Barrett Jackson’s Las Vegas auction and the surprising number of minibikes on the docket.
Killeen then shares her experience driving around in the new Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport SUV. While impressed with its solid driving capabilities, she expresses her disappointment with the interior lacking accessories found in other luxury vehicles.
