Brandon was a TV journalist for 16 years and a car nut since almost before he could walk, with a particular love of 80's and 90's Japanese imports. His vehicle fleet includes a 1993 Toyota MR2 and a 1991 Honda CRX. These days he's a writer living in Minnesota with his wife, who tolerates his car hobby with a smile and occasional eye roll.
