It Runs in the Family

The Balthasars’ driveway is probably the most recognizable in their neighborhood. Each member of the family—mother, father, and son—drives a unique widebody Lexus, with a handful of SEMA appearances between them. When our podcast kicked off for reviewing feature vehicle submissions, we started to see the Balthasar name. Then we saw it again, and again. Dana, Giuseppe, and Cassandra Balthasar all found their way into the pages of PASMAG together, making it one of the only triple-features in PASMAG history!
