The Road Trip That Shouldn’t Work
Three friends, three high-mileage Nissans, and six days across the wild American West. Adventure, comedy, and proof of just how tough a Nissan can be.
Three friends, endless miles, and more jokes than good decisions.
Follow three friends and their high-mileage Nissans as they battle the West’s most rugged terrain.
The Good, The Bad, and The CVT
2016 Nissan Juke
Tim "The Ringmaster"
Tim’s the guy who fixes things that weren’t broken—until he fixed them. As EVP of one of Virginia’s oldest dealership groups, he’s traded in boardrooms for backroads, leading this off-road circus into the desert with high-mileage Nissans and a high chance of mechanical failure. He calls it “adventure.” Insurance calls it “don’t ask.”
2014 Nissan Murano
Jason "The Gambler"
Jason’s a fourth-gen dealer who’s done every job on the lot—and still finds time for bourbon, golf, and big ideas. He’s got just enough polish for a press release and just enough chaos for a car chase. When the asphalt ends, his sarcasm kicks in.
2017 Nissan Murano
Chris "The Strategist"
Chris learned how to wrench before he could drive, helping his dad in a backyard body shop on Chicago’s South Side. Now president of a Colorado Nissan store, he’s the calm behind the chaos—unless barbecue, ski powder, or a perfectly tuned engine is involved. Strategy is his game… until the GPS cuts out.

Three Friends, One Wild Idea
What happens when three car dealers with zero off-road experience take high-mileage Nissans into some of the toughest terrain in the West? You get Tour Detour.
Adventure, Comedy, and a Lot of Questionable Decisions
From the salt flats of Utah to the peaks of Colorado, this road trip is equal parts grit and laughter. The cars aren’t built for it. The crew isn’t ready for it. But that’s what makes it worth watching — because every detour turns into a story you don’t want to miss.
