Ambassadors of Car Culture Assemble!
Get ready for a pulse-pounding ride in this special edition of our podcast, where the Ambassadors of Car Culture—Ryan, Jorge, and yours truly—dive headfirst into an exhilarating challenge. Brace yourself for a conversation that's anything but dull!
Our mission? Each of us had to pick three cars for three distinct purposes from the renowned auction site, Bring a Trailer. The goal was clear: maximize the profits from these automotive gems. We captured the raw excitement, taking the auction prices at the time of recording and awaiting the jaw-dropping results in part two.
What unfolded was a thrilling spectacle of three distinct strategies converging on a shared objective. In part one, we set the rules, made our selections, and passionately critiqued our chosen vehicles. Warning: this episode takes a slightly edgier tone than our usual content!
As we navigate through our conversation, you'll discover the secrets behind Dan's ideal life partner, explore the options for a delivery break, and unveil a hidden NASCAR fetish. The stakes are sky-high, and the competition is fierce.
So, fasten your seatbelts, turn up the volume, and join us on this high-octane journey through the world of car culture, intertwined with personal stories and a sprinkle of friendly rivalry. We guarantee you a podcast episode that's not to be missed—this is a ride you'll be talking about for days!
