エピソード
  • Ram 1500 RHO, Carvel Ice Cream, Leasing an Electric Car
    2024/11/05

    Jill and Tom opened the show talking about EV range and Jill’s recent trip from Chicago to Indianapolis in an electric test car with only about 200 miles of promised range. Listen in on her story.

    The hosts acknowledged a couple of friends-of-the-podcast birthdays, and discussed how cheap gas has become locally and nationally.

    Tom shared a tribute to his dad, who died about a week ago. It’s a funny story about pouring a milk shake out the window of his father’s shake-colored 1970 Nova.

    Tom went on to complain about Land Rover’s trim-level naming strategy, which is, indeed, rather confusing.

    Still in the first segment, Jill shared her impressions of the new Ram 1500 RHO, which more-or-less replaces the TRX in the big-truck lineup.

    In the second segment Jill and Tom welcome John Vincent of U.S. New to the show. John walked the hosts through the pros and cons of leasing, and why it makes sense for EV shoppers especially to consider leasing.

    In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “America or Someplace Else” quiz. The quiz includes a question about fake Halloween Hallmark movies. Can you pick the fake?

  • Porsche Macan EV, VW Rolls Out Scout Brand, Serious Car-Care Products
    2024/10/28

    Jill and Tom opened this week’s show discussing the all-new 2025 Porsche Macan EV, an electric version of the maker’s popular Macan small crossover. The new electric Macan is offered in four trim levels and starts around $75,000.

    Still in the first segment, the hosts discussed the media launch of Volkswagen’s all-new electric-truck brand Scout. VW will launch the brand with a pair of EVs, including a crossover and pickup truck, both of which are closer in size to full-size vehicles, including the Ford Expedition and F-150. Volkswagen also plans to employ a controversial “direct-to-consumer” sales model which will certainly raise the ire of U.S.-market VW dealers.

    In the second segment, Jill and Tom welcome James Melfi of Xpel car-care products. James shared the purchase and application details of several products, including window tinting, and ceramic paint coating. Learn more at Xpel.com.

    In the last segment, Jill is subjected to Tom’s “Buick vs. The Beatles” quiz. We also learn that Jill may have a flat tire.

    2024/10/21

    Jill is back in the studio this week, and opened the show by recapping her Rebelle Rally exploits. Visit the Car Stuff Podcast Facebook page for a link to pics from her trip.

    Tom shared august electric vehicle sales as reported by S & P Global Mobility. While Tesla still dominates the list, a few new vehicles are doing better than expected.

    Jill and Tom discussed the coming Ferrari F80 hyper car. Not only is the price breath taking, the car’s engine is proving controversial.

    Still in the first segment, Tom shared his impressions of the Buick Envista small crossover. Is this bargain Buick too good to be true? Listen in.

    In the second segment, the hosts welcome Alex Knizek of Consumer Reports to the show. Alex walked Jill and Tom through the organization's list of most-reliable used-car brands, and called out several models as especially good used-car picks.

    In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “Was it a Cadillac?” quiz, the hosts talk about Tesla slashing Cybertruck prices, and Tom shares a disturbing McDonald’s drive-thru story.
