American Pro Moving Company Mercedes-Benz G550 - Performance Even though its undefeatable stability control keeps it upright and planted, taking turns will likely remind you of yachting. Taller than most village huts, the G feels tippy, and as a result your pace on alpine roads will hardly be brisk. Yet it was capable enough to keep up with traffic (and pass many) on a mountain road trip up to Southern California ski country.(American Pro Moving Company : Sunday 07 December 2008) Mazda MAZDA5 - Performance Our test car had the 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine (the only engine that's ever been available in a Mazda5) and the new smooth-shifting five-speed automatic transmission with manual mode...

American Pro Moving Company Mercedes-Benz G550 - Performance Even though its undefeatable stability control keeps it upright and planted, taking turns will likely remind you of yachting. Taller than most village huts, the G feels tippy, and as a result your pace on alpine roads will hardly be brisk. Yet it was capable enough to keep up with traffic (and pass many) on a mountain road trip up to Southern California ski country.(American Pro Moving Company : Sunday 07 December 2008) Mazda MAZDA5 - Performance Our test car had the 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine (the only engine that's ever been available in a Mazda5) and the new smooth-shifting five-speed automatic transmission with manual mode (the answer to a common complaint about the previous 5's lackluster four-speed auto). The good news is that the new tranny improves fuel economy versus that of the previous Mazda5 by 2 mpg city and 3 mpg highway, for an EPA estimate of 21 city, 27 highway and 23 combined (we averaged about 22 mpg during our test). The bad news is that the extra gear still doesn't quite make up for the fact that the four-cylinder engine doesn't have enough oomph to handle heavier loads or passing at highway speeds. At the track, we noticed slightly better acceleration using the manual mode. American Pro Moving & Storage - Volkswagen Tiguan - Performance As with all Tiguans, our SEL 4Motion featured a turbocharged inline-4 good for 200 horsepower and 206 pound-feet of torque. In this trim, it's teamed with all-wheel drive and a six-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain got the VW from zero to 60 in 8.4 seconds at the track. That's a respectable showing for this segment — quicker than most, though behind the class hot rod, the Toyota RAV4 V6. In city and highway driving, the engine felt acquiescent and downright energetic. Some turbo lag was in evidence, but it never intruded enough to spoil the fun. The CUV's transmission governed things with confidence, and shifts were smooth and fluid in both automatic and manual-shift modes.
