§ 02 · What it is
What Tour Detour is.
01
The internet has theories.
Cars inspire strong opinions. Some earned. Some repeated until they became fact.
02
We have odometers.
Every season, three experienced dealers take a different automotive argument across America's most unforgettable roads.
03
No scripts. No editing around the parts where things go wrong.
If something fails, the failure becomes part of the story. If it survives, that matters too.
§ 03 · The Hosts
Genuine friendship. Executive-level titles. Fraternity-level judgment.
Three dealers. One argument. No reverse gear.
