Nick shares the best cars he spotted on a drive through Southern Utah, and we both drove some monsters — including the Ford Raptor R and the Tesla Cybertruck.
Hunter bought a 2016 Range Rover Autobiography LWB, and Nick tries (unsuccessfully) to sell his ML500.
We rant about the absurd size of the Bronco Rap...
In this episode, we kick things off by naming the different “groups” of car enthusiasts—what do you call a group of Subaru owners?
Then we dive into a lively debate about the worst automotive design eras, narrowing it down to the 1970s, 1990s, and today’s tech-heavy snoozefest. But even in dark design times, there were gems—so we highlight the best cars from each ugly era.
We also reflect on the specific cars that sparked our love ...
In this episode, we dive into the latest Formula One drama—Ferrari is doing what Ferrari does best: blowing it.

We dive into why modern cars feel like profit-driven products rather than exciting machines, even in brands like Porsche. Plus, we preview the upcoming F1 season, new drivers, and why Nick prefers IndyCar.

Nick shares a tragic tale of being bitten by an old horse, while Hunter talks about a client’s insane Bentley collection—and the mystery cars hidden under covers.

In this episode, Nick finally confesses to destroying his parents' Jaguar...
in the dumbest way possible.
We also reminisce about our early motorcycle misadventures (one crash, one abandoned bike), dive into the upcoming Formula One season, and discuss Lewis Hamilton’s shocking move to Ferrari.

In this episode, Nick embarks on a thrilling adventure...
adding power steering fluid to his ML500, which had begun sounding like a humpback whale. Meanwhile, Hunter drops off a Tacoma and ends up piloting his father-in-law’s Jeep home under unexpected circumstances.
We dive into the world of used Porsche classifieds, rank potential replacements for Nick’s ML500, and discuss whether Nick's car-selling impulses are fueled by ADHD, an...
In this episode, we cover a chaotic mix of stories, car sightings, and questionable life choices.
Nick spots anE60 M5, an oldMercedes, and aMartini-liveried Harley Davidson Road King—because why not? We witness a man oncross-country rollerblades (yes, that’s a thing) and can’t stop laughing.

What could go wrong with a 25 year old twin-turbocharged German V8, anyway? NOTHING!!
Season 3 kicks off with a bang as we dive into all the cars Nick drove over the break—ranging from a tire-shredding Dodge Demon (with all of its seats) to delightfully practical Mercedes wagons, and most intriguingly, a 2000 Audi RS6 that might just have a new home.
Meanwhile, Hunter gets behind the wheel of some hot hatches, including the Ford Fo...
To those in the automotive community, let's have a chat.
This episode takes a long, hard (that's what she said) look at how the once-beloved website "Bring a Trailer" has transformed into a battleground for pedantic braggers and lost its charm.
Nick shares a tale of chatting with a Porsche 911 owner who surprisingly didn't know much about his own car, while Hunter recounts his experience behind the wheel of a 996 Porsche 911.
Plus...
Let's do some shopping, but for things we'll actually enjoy...

We also break down the end of the 2024 Formula 1 season—was it everything we hoped for?—and take a hard look at Jaguar’s bafflingly terrible new direction. Tune in f...
Let's get controversial and discuss why we think (know) German cars are better than Japanese (and American) cars—prepare for some spicy takes!
We also dive into the tragic, disgusting, disappointing re-launch of Jaguar and why it’s been such a letdown. And just to keep things fair, we reveal which American and Japanese cars we’d buy if we absolutely had to.

First! Let's chat about the struggles Lamborghini is facing with the new #Revuelto—because even supercar giants have their headaches.
Our dilemma: what super car would you buy? Deciding between the 2024 Porsche 911 GT3RS, Lamborghini Huracan STO, and the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ.
Plus, we brainstorm some highly questionable names for upcoming holiday car sales events. It’s fast cars, tough choices, and a dash of humor—don’t...
What’s your pick: Toyotathon, VW Sign and Drive, A December to Remember? Something else??
Also, Hunter shares his recent encounter with a, let's say, over-aggressive, city sanitation worker who shut down his street-side detail appointment (that involved a Bentley Bentayga and a Range Rover...).
We also talk about what could possibly replace my beloved Mercedes-Benz ML500, the chaos of upcoming holiday car sales, and more. Join u...
Anyway, what are your thoughts on the new Ferrari halo car??
This week we go off the rails a bit with a discussion on high-end watches (because, why not?). Our studio is perfect for car spotting, and we can’t help but be distracted by the flood of beautiful Range Rovers we spot passing by.
But the main event? Our brutal, unfiltered thoughts on the new Ferrari F80 and why it’s the poster child for the downfall of the modern car.
Buc...
Let's jump into the ultimate car buying debate: Should you buy a high-mileage car with a solid service history or a low-mileage car with zero service records? We weigh the pros and cons and share our own experiences.
We also take a fun detour to brainstorm new names for the Utah Hockey Club and talk about the joys (or nightmares) of driving in the rain. Finally, we discuss the release of the new Ferrari F80 and why, honestly, we c...
I mean, God PROBABLY drives an old ML. But we know he doesn't drive a Nissan Rogue.
Come along as we dive into why modern cars are loaded with too much unnecessary technology, and why we long for the simpler days of old-school car design. From our love of analog driving experiences to poking fun at the soul-crushing Nissan Rogue, this episode is a mix of nostalgia, car culture, and some good laughs. If you miss the days when cars ...
Today, we tried something... different.
We thought it would be a brilliant idea to record from the front seat of my amazing 2003 Mercedes ML500 while simultaneously doing some car spotting.
Spoiler: it was an absolute ADHD nightmare.
Between the shiny Porsches and questionable Chryslers, we barely held a single thought together. If you’ve ever tried to talk about anything serious while car spotting, you’ll relate to this one. Join...
We had some DEEP reflection on what it means to love cars, and if we truly love them or their status.
There are plenty of people who purchase cars because they're loud, flashy, and get noticed. Does this mean that they aren't TRUE automotive enthusiasts?
Also, some consumer advice: proofread your used car ad before you post it (and make sure you price it right)!
