And so I've been fortunate enough to drive pretty much everything I've wanted to drive. And I've had, you know, a number that... I've really enjoyed, too. And I'd say that the two that are under a million dollars that I think are the two best cars out for the money is the Ferrari 488 Pista and the new McLaren 750S. Those two, I think, bang for your buck. It's all relative.

I mean, they're still very expensive cars. But for what you get in performance and The emotion, the connection to the road. I think Ferrari is very similar to Ducati in that way. If the act itself of driving is what motivates you to do it, Ferrari is a tough brand to beat. What is your daily driver? And don't say Prius. No, it's an F-150 truck.

Yeah. It's one of those things where... I think the best way to try to relate it would be parachuting versus flying. Okay. You know, or, yeah, I mean, I guess, so it's like, take flying as an example. If you're piloting a 757, the experience that you get from that is what it is, right? Probably pretty sterile by comparison to jumping into an F-16, right? Oh, yeah.

So to me, that's kind of the difference. And where I would throw motorcycles in is piloting a jumbo jet is normal cars, trucks, et cetera. Jumping in a fighter jet is like driving a sports car or super car, and they're going to have different personalities. And they surprisingly do if you're into that. Now, if you don't really give a shit,

and you just want to be seen in a Lambo or whatever, then it doesn't really matter. Get whatever you like the way it looks the most. But if the experience and the connection to the road and the emotion, the sound of the exhaust and shifting with paddles and...

and pushing that envelope and really testing yourself as a driver competency wise, then you are going to notice a huge difference between a Porsche, a McLaren, a Ferrari, a Lamborghini, you know, whatever. And so, um, to throw motorcycles into the mix, I would say that's where free fall and wingsuits come in, you know, is that even when you're flying, um,

There's still a two-dimension aspect to it compared to parachuting. Being on a bike is that 360-degree 4D experience, whereas even in the fastest, most exhilarating sports car, it still is not the same way that it's exciting on a bike. So for me, personality plays a big role, and I'm sure people would think it's ridiculous hearing that a car has personality, but they do.
