PowerWorks-๐๐ Dubai's #1 Auto Podcast: AI, Tesla, & More Car Gossip!
Hey everyone, James here with another episode of the #1 automotive podcast coming at you from Dubai! In this episode, Glenn and I covered a ton of car chat - from issues with Toyota Corollas to the future of AI in vehicle maintenance. ๐ค We also discussed some complaints about new vehicles like the Tesla Cybertruck and Genesis exhaust pipes that put other cars to shame! ๐ช
One thing that really stood out was how AI could revolutionize vehicle service. Imagine if your car could monitor itself and flag problems to your phone before they get serious. It would even schedule maintenance dynamically based on real wear and tear. ๐งโ๐ง Plus, automakers could spot issues quickly from all that collected data. Pretty amazing stuff!
Before you buy a used car, remember to factor in potential repair costs. As we discussed with my son's Corolla transmission problem, things like that solenoid can cost nearly $1000 to replace. Yikes! ๐ธ To wrap up, like, comment and subscribe for more car chat from Dubai. Let me know what other vehicle topics you want us to cover!

Iโve been a fan and have listen to James for the past 14 years. The programs have been entertaining and enlightening. Sadly over the last 3/4 years, Iโve lost interest as the quality of the content and participants continue to decline. Thank you for the good old days James
