There’s a little Kansas liberal arts school in a town of 14,000 that has an endowment that could make some Silicon Valley scenesters blush. Would you believe $1.5 billion? Yes, you read that right. How does McPherson College do it? As Hagerty tells it, a benefactor who wishes to remain anonymous promised that (s)he would donate $500 million
If America were a vehicle it would be the GMC Hummer EV pickup truck. The rolling contradiction just might be the single best and worst vehicle I’ve ever driven.

Getting into the Prodrive P25 for the first time brought on waves of nostalgia—for what I simultaneously knew well and had never truly experienced. Like many in a cohort of car-obsessed Gen Xers, I became aware in the 1990s that there was more to motorsports than NASCAR, Formula 1, CART, and the Funny Car and monster
