Everyday Driver Car Debate

Show Notes

The guys are asked for their predictions on 5 future classics and 5 future duds, all sold within the last 5 years. For extra credit, even categorized in 5 countries!

They debate fun choices for Jose B., who gets bored quickly and has owned multiple versions of the same sports car. Then, the Mercedes-Benz MBRACE app is being discontinued - what choices do owners have when car companies abandon technology that was a selling point?

Did you see this? The newly-announced humanoid robot for homes, called NEO! Then, social media questions ask how do you tell a driver you’re uncomfortable with their driving habits, what future cars are OEMs scrambling to build, and why do companies choose such large wheels for their cars now?

Audio-only MP3 is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and 10 other platforms.
