Car Trek Season 11 is Here With Three Sports Cars for the Price of a Plane Ticket
Time to rejoice, Car Trek is back! We may have lost Clarkson, May, and Hammond in Top Gear and most recently The Grand Tour, but we can at least rely on Ed Bolian of VINWiki, Freddy 'Tavarish' Hernandez, and Tyler Hoover of Hoovie's Garage to bring us another season of Car Trek. This YouTuber-special series just dropped its 11th season, and with the third and final episode of the season coming tomorrow, it seems we're in for several treats. What is CarTrek? If you're familiar with the concept of the two aforementioned shows, then you'll understand and love Car Trek. Three friends, who in this case happen to be rather popular automotive YouTubers, purchase three questionable cars for far too little or too much money and proceed to take them on adventures that those cars have no right embarking on. Each season has a different goal and concept that puts everyone to the test, with AutoTempest and Ticket Clinic usually being the main sponsors of the series. 'The Car Trek audience seems to enjoy our content the most when we are miserable and breaking down in truly terrible cars,' Ed Bolian told me. 'Our 11th series delivers that in an order of magnitude greater than anything we have suffered through before.' default So, what did the trio buy from series sponsor AutoTempest? Ed went German with a 2022 Audi TT Quattro, Freddy stuck to his JDM roots with a 1990 Toyota Supra Turbo, and Tyler followed in Ed's footsteps with a 1999 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class. Neither car is as good as it was when it rolled off the factory floor, and all cost the same as a cancelled flight. If that doesn't spell disaster, then perhaps the questionable modifications they made to each other's cars for a dirt track race in episode #2 might. Will the cars last throughout all three episodes? Probably not, but it'll be fun for sure. Autoblog Newsletter Autoblog brings you car news; expert reviews and exciting pictures and video. Research and compare vehicles, too.
