    E35: Overseas Delivery Programs

    Overseas Delivery Programs, what they are, how did we end up with them briefly during the 1990s and 2000s, why we only have 1 program standing, and whether that program (Volvo) is a good idea or not. I also talk about my rental of a brand new Cadillac XT5 Premium Luxury from Hertz in Phoenix, AZ.

    E34: 2023 Market Update and Drive By

    Howdy! For this long belated episode, I do a drive-by of three of the most impactful events in the automotive market this year: 1) Tesla's continued price cuts, which launched an EV price battle, 2) is EV demand saturating?, and 3) how high interest rates have impacted certain corners of the car market. I also discuss a rental car roulette that is a minivan- my favorite category of cars! I drive a 2022 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Touring-L from Budget Rent-a-Car!

Having been involved in both purchases, we talk about their car buying experiences, how it's changed, and their advice for car shoppers today. I also briefly discuss a second appearance on rental car roulette for the Ford Edge, which has been refreshed for 2022 with minor updates!

    E29: The Death of the Affordable New Car

    In this episode, I explore the death of the affordable new car, with average new car prices rising to over $46,000 recently (up from $39,000 in December 2020). I'll discuss why the average price has jumped so dramatically, why this issue has flown under the radar, and my thoughts on how this will trend over the next few years.  I'm also revisiting a previous rental car roulette selection, the Mazda CX-30 2.5S Select.

I also discuss another rental car roulette, where I experience the current generation Ford Escape with the 1.5L 3-cylinder engine. Have a question about the automotive business?
