Brett Berk

Brett Berk might be the busiest freelance journalist we know. He has the incredible power to drive one car and extract 3 interesting, unique stories from the experience. That's why he's driven Jaguar's new EV, a very special Bentley, driven cars on boats (yes, that's a thing), and toured factories.

Patreon questions include:

  • Best used AMG car for under $40k?
  • Can we fix bad drivers?
  • Will Aston make an entry-level mid-engine car?
  • Cameras vs lidar
  • Toddlers vs supercar owners
  • Best bang-for-buck car
  • EPA's move to 15% ethanol
  • Do Alpina's last longer than BMWs?
  • Are convertibles always worth more than coupes?
  • Is car-themed luggage gauche?
  • BRZ: best chassis you can buy under $100k?
  • And more!
