About Us
At Drive Thru Media, we make car content for people who don’t really care about cars. We want to make choosing your next vehicle easy, with car-buying content that doesn't require a dictionary or a degree in mechanical engineering.
Despite what car fanatics might have you believe, you don’t need to be one to buy a car.
Sounds obvious, right? And yet, most car-buying advice talks to you like you’re a mechanic. It’s like going to a mortgage broker and having them speak to you like you’re a property developer. You’d think, “Woah buddy. I’m just trying to buy an apartment. Calm down.”
That’s where we come in. We use normal words. We break things down. We explain stuff like to smart people who just happen to not care about differential ratios. So you can choose your next car without having to Google every second word.
OUR MISSION
We’re here to help people buy a car without feeling like idiots. Because life’s too short for 20-minute video reviews full of jargon you don't understand. We explain what matters, skip what doesn’t, and make the whole thing way less painful (and maybe even a little fun).
