    Thanks to AutoTempest.com for sponsoring this series!
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    On the first episode of Car Trek Series 8, AutoTempest challenges the guys to find three of the burliest, most obnoxious gas guzzlers they can buy, for less than the price of America's favorite electric vehicle, the Tesla Model 3. Freddy brings out his inner boomer with a Chevy Corvette Z06, Tyler's childhood fantasies come to life with a Dodge Viper SRT-10, and Ed's cheap Bugatti Veyron dreams are realized with a Bentley Continental Supersports. They are then tasked with racing around Atlanta Motor Speedway, which is a bit scarier than it sounds.

      He picks cars that depreciate insanely fast and seems to buy them right when their value takes a huge hit. I've seen cars very similar to the ones he picks (same make/model, + or - 2 years in age + or - 10K on the odometet) for around the same prices he pays for them all the time jusy browsing around, its the only reason why i know hes not full of BS on most of the cars he picks.

    I’d love to see car trek do a cannonball run. Red ball garage to portofino in some goofy cars, maybe with some built in challenges along the way. Maybe buy a car on auto tempest, do a cannonball, then sell your car upon arrival, and whoever goes the least negative wins. That’d be pretty neat.
