Most American readers (and bloggers) have today off as we in the United States honor those who have given their lives while in military service to our country by observing Memorial Day. The holiday also acts as the kickoff to summer, and is marked by parades, barbeques, and other assorted gatherings with family and friends. Be safe during your travels, watch out for the fuzz (they'll be out in force, as they are every year), and try not to eat too much. We'll be posting on a reduced, weekend-style schedule today and back to normal posting tomorrow. If you missed last year's post on our experience taking part in one of the thousands of local parades around the country, click here to check it out. It was a lot of fun, and chances are something just like it will be playing out in your city or town later today. Go enjoy it.

Happy Memorial Day.

Next Monday is Memorial Day, which many think of as the official start of the summer driving season. That means it's time to pack your families and all their associated gear in the family truckster family sedan and head out to see the relatives. We've already seen one set of choices for the best vehicle with which to hit the open road, and now Kelley Blue Book has decided to throw its hat in the ring as well. They cover all the bases, so regardless of the size of your clan, you'll be sure to find a recommendation that suits you. Some of their choices, like the Grand Caravan sitting at number five, seem pretty obvious and would likely make for a smooth trip. If smoothness isn't really your thing, perhaps the Bugatti Veyron, number two on KBB's list, would be a better choice. Too fuel thirsty for your pocketbook? Consider the Prius at number nine. Take a look at their full list here.
