About this episode

The episode features debates on car selling strategies, finding a manual car for teaching, and audience questions about EVs and car comparisons.

The guys take on three debates for this episode! First, Rob in WY is trying to get his arms around all his cars - what to sell and how to do it? Joel in MN is in nearly the same predicament, and wants something different. Then, Jonathan in Texas wants a cheap manual car to teach his daughter the art of stick shift, but also use it to commute. Audience questions on social media ask who is the third buyer for massively depreciated EVs, can you import forbidden fruit car parts from Europe, and which is better to drive - the Mazda CX-5 or CX-50? Audio-only MP3 is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and 10 other platforms. Look for us on Tuesdays if you’d like to watch us debate, disagree and then go drive again! 00:00 - Intro 00:59 - Camaro Is Coming Back In 2027! 09:44 - VW Introduces Chinese Concepts And Kills ID.4 Production In U.S. 14:14 - Hyundai Premieres Chinese-Market ‘Earth’ And ‘Venus’ Concepts 16:15 - Driven: 2026 Lexus NX350 F Sport AWD 20:39 - Hooked On Driving Events April 2026 25:51 - Car Debate #1: Corralling The Herd 50:08 - Car Debate #2: Too Cheap To Ignore 1:05:50 - Car Debate #3: Teaching The Kids To Drive Manual 1:21:47 - Audience Questions On Social Media Rate…
