Show Notes
Sam has been driving the Kia K5 GT-Line, Jill had the Toyota Tundra TRD Pro and Robbie had the Subaru Trailseeker and Ford Expedition.
This week Jaguar unveiled its first new product in a decade, BMW has killed what was once a top-selling 3 series, a Chinese SUV is the UK's top-seller. Canada has a cheap Model 3, EVs are still selling in Europe, electrified models are now the global majority, watch your dog in your Rivian and the VW ID Tiguan gets buttons.
Sam had a conversation with John Possumato, CEO of DriveItAway and Free2Move's head of mobility Benjamin Maillard about the new vehicle rent-to-own service. It certainly provides flexibility for those in need of transportation, but it's probably not the best value in the world for a new or used vehicle.
