We tested several cars during the Annual Chicago 2016 Auto Show. Our goal = find cars that Talls can comfortably fit in. The Mercedes Benz S-550 provided the most comfortable fit of them all.

Co-host Tem and I had comfortable leg room, head space, and body space; factors that were of great importance to me during the selection process of TALL District’s Top 2016 Cars for Talls. The name speaks for itself. The space speaks to us #talls.
