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.

Hear ye! It's Episode 29! This week, Nathan tells us about the 2024 Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter he drove a few weeks ago — he calls it a '25 on the podcast, but it's actually a '24 — aimed squarely at the Colorado ZR2, Canyon AT4, and Ranger Raptor. Is its hardcore off-road hardware and hybrid powertrain enough to make it stand out? It sure looks the part. Plus, Imran has a confession to make: he has a crush on his press car this week, the new-for-2024 Crosstrek Wilderness. In fact, of all the subcompact-ish crossovers out there, that's the one he'd park in his driveway — much to Nathan's bemusement, who's still coming off his HR-V high. And finally, Nick's in the X1 M35i, the hot hatch-ish variant of BMW's ubiquitous X1. He wants to like it, but there are a couple of things holding him back. BMW, if you're reading — or listening — make the "Sport" programming for the transmission standard.
