We've got another fun-filled week of The Drive with Alan Taylor, including Mike Brewer and Ant Anstead from 'Wheeler Dealers', Steven Cole Smith, and Dan Sandberg of Brembo Brakes. First off, 'Wheeler Dealers' co-hosts Mike Brewer and Ant Anstead fill us in on details for the 16th season of the show. With 27 episodes and a slew of new cars, including a Volvo 850 T5 C, '91 Alfa Romeo 164 L, Lotus Elan M100, 2004 Dodge RAM SRT-10, this season promises to be one of their most diverse yet. Then, automotive journalist, Steven Cole Smith, keeps us in the loop with rallycross and NASCAR news. Steven also details his off-road test drive trek through the countryside of New York and Monticello, VA in the beefy Chevrolet Silverado; this truck is a heavy, yet surprisingly agile beast. Also, after a recent tour of the Brembo facility in Italy, Steven sings praises to the number one most trusted brake company in the world. Lastly, Brembo President and CEO, Dan Sandberg, tells us what little he can about their new brake system to be unveiled at the upcoming SEMA show, Brembo's involvement in the electric car industry, and their two new American iron foundries. Stay up to date with the automotive industry, here!
