    Volkswagen's Decline is Truly Sad. Its NOT VW's Fault Entirely

Prices are reaching higher limits, even though they have one of the most affordable newer cars on the market, the Jetta.

  4. Free Electric Vehicles? Proof EV's Suck

    Free Electric Vehicles? Proof EV's Suck

    If you need anymore proof that electric vehicles are not ready for mass adoption, then look no further than the fact that they are giving them away for free. If a product has value, if a product solves a problem, if a product can hold its own, you don't give it away for free. The EV Tax incentives are going away once Donald Trump enters office and if you want to capitalize on the tax incentive, now is the time to do it. If you want a free EV and you live in Colorado, you better hurry up and take advantage of the broken system while you still can.

  8. Future of the Auto Industry

    Future of the Auto Industry

    Welcome to the podcast where we dive into the uncertain, ever-shifting world of the auto industry! From complicated tech making cars less reliable to sky-high prices that leave us wondering if we're actually getting our money’s worth, it feels like the road ahead is a bumpy one. Almost every manufacturer seems to be letting down their customers—whether it’s through supply chain issues driving up prices, cutting corners, or racking up fines that ultimately get passed down to buyers like us. It's time to really assess where the auto industry is headed. Will these trends lead to a surge of Chinese automakers taking the wheel in Western markets? If that happens, we could be looking at brands going under, massive subsidies, and a car industry that may never look the same again. Join us as we explore this crucial crossroads, and don’t forget to share the episode with friends who love talking about cars and the future of the open road. Buckle up—it’s going to be a wild ride! -Brandon

  9. The EV Myth: Why Electric Cars are probably NOT the best

    The EV Myth: Why Electric Cars are probably NOT the best

    It’s easy to see why electric vehicles (EVs) have become so popular; they seem like the eco-friendly answer we’ve all been looking for. But the truth is, the reality of EVs is more complicated than it first appears. Although they offer some clear advantages over gas-powered cars, there are also real environmental costs associated with them that many people may not be aware of. For one thing, EVs require a lot of energy to produce—especially the batteries, which depend on mining materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel. In fact, manufacturing an EV can sometimes create a larger carbon footprint than producing a gas-powered car. Then, as these batteries reach the end of their lifespan, we face the issue of disposal and recycling, which, as of now, is far from an environmentally-friendly process. The recycling infrastructure for these batteries isn’t fully in place, meaning that expired batteries can end up in landfills, adding to pollution. I’m not saying EVs are the worst or that we should reject them entirely. They’re a useful option and have a role to play, but we need to understand the whole picture. If you’re someone who cares deeply about the environment—and I certainly am—we owe it to ourselves to look at all sides of the story. Only by being honest about the complexities can we work towards real solutions that genuinely benefit the environment.
