Fun and informative

This podcast is great because it has one of the widest ranges of car information. It’s not stuck on one brand, type or era, so it’s always entertaining and informative.
I learn something new every time I listen and the hosts crack me up with their side talk. If you are a car person, add this to your library- you will really enjoy listening to these guys.
