  <description>Welcome to Episode 68!
Good news, everyone: Caleigh got her motorcycle licence! She spent this past weekend in the classroom and on two wheels, in the sweltering heat, and tells us all about it. Go Caleigh!
Meanwhile, Nathan was in Nova Scotia taking in the most recent Sentra Cup race, and Nick fills us in on a very stupid decision he recently made. 
Also this week, Nick isn't entirely sold on the Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter because the Ranger Raptor exists, and Nathan isn't entirely sold on the Mercedes-AMG E 53, either, despite packing a lot of the right stuff — including a tasty inline-six.
All that and more on this week's episode. Enjoy the show? Like, subscribe, and rate us from almost anywhere you get your podcasts! Check us out at doubleclutch.ca, and be sure to follow us on your socials at @doubleclutch.ca!

  <description>Welcome to Episode 51!
This week, Nick talks about a Mercedes with a mouthful of a name: the 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E-Performance 4-Door Coupe. It didn't meet his expectations of a modern Mercedes-Benz—and that's kind of a good thing.
Plus, Nathan recounts his weekend with the 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray, and comes away pleasantly surprised by the refreshingly simple 2024 Nissan Frontier Hardbody Edition.
Oh, and Rush is back in the studio. He hasn't driven anything cool lately, but he stuck around to mess with Nathan and Nick.

  <description>Welcome to Episode 47!
After Jeff talked up the 2024 Mercedes-AMG S 63 E Performance plug-in hybrid so much last week, we finally get some seat time—and came away feeling not over- or underwhelmed, but simply whelmed. 
Plus, Nathan returns from San Diego where he sampled the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid, gushes about Nick's recent press cars—last week's 2024 Ford Ranger Lariat and this week's 2024 Dodge Durango SRT—and shares his thoughts on the 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro. Oh, and Rush decided to stick around and hang out.
