Despite more areas re-opening all the time, traveling has still been pretty weird lately, for obvious reasons. For many of us, the itch to get out onto the open road is hitting harder than ever before. 

Of course, the realities of van life aren’t always so romantic. Most people aren’t ready to give up hot showers, regular toilets and sitting on their porch just to put big bucks into upgrading a Sprinter or Econoline.

AMGs will always have a special place in my memory bank. As a rookie video producer here at Autoblog back in 2013, I was sent to an event called “The Best of AMG.” You fly to the L.A. airport, get the keys to an AMG and drive out to Willow Springs raceway to track any AMG model you want. In the span of three days I got behind the wheel of many dream cars, the pièce de résistance being the gull-winged SLS AMG Black Series. This AMG doesn’t come with track time, but it does come with 603 horses under the hood, as well as all taxes covered. Plus, you get to keep it.
