Biography
Growing up with a father who was a mechanic I had an appreciation for cars and motorcycles from an early age. I shared my first bike with my brother that had little more than a 40cc engine but it opened up a world of excitement for me, I was hooked. As I grew older I progressed onto bigger bikes and when I was 16 my uncle Mike handed me down a beat-up Harley which I fully restored and still have to this to this day. I bought my first car not long after, a ’92 Ford Taurus which I’d often take on road trips and adventures around the country. Nowadays I drive an F-150 Raptor which gives a nice balance of performance and convenience and it’s great for trailer camping. I set up Engine Patrol to pass on some tips and advice that I have picked up over the years from working on cars and bikes and offer it to you in the form of a helpful, informative, and entertaining auto website.

A Canadian dealership is offering one for an astonishing $1,022,733 (CA$1,399,990). This hefty price tag reflects the vehicle’s rarity, low mileage of just 10,283 km, and its desirable features.
