Pull up a seat and buckle in, we've got a thrilling ride ahead! This Halloween Edition, we bring you an exclusive chat with Julian Mendoza from the Marshall Center for Advanced Careers and three talented students from Alief and Hastings High Schools. Julian, a former Mossy Nissan and Sewell Cadillac employee, spills the beans on the state-of-the-art facility that offers courses ranging from culinary to robotics. Hear from the students about their fascinating experience in the automotive program and the recent competition they participated in with outstanding results. What does the future hold? A lot for these young men who share some of their thoughts on the future.
As we steer the conversation, we dive into the results of a recent car auction. Marrs landed six coveted vehicles and Jeff snatched one. We'll talk about the vehicles we bagged, from a 1972 Chevy Chevelle to a 1968 Chevy El Camino, and the new tagline from Chevy, 'Together Let's Drive'. We also shed light on the $1.1 million settlement between the Federal Trade Commission and Wisconsin Department of Justice against Rhinelander Auto Center, and what that means for the auto industry.
Cruise into the return of Tailpipes and Tacos at the Loopy Tortilla Tex-Max, an event that’s driving support towards God's Garage, a charity that helps single mothers get a car. This hotspot marks the kick-off for the car show season. Also on our radar is the Gulf Coast Auto Shield Car Social, where you can feast your eyes on luxury brands like Lamborghini, Porsche, and Ferrari. We'll share all the juicy details, including how to stay plugged into all the places you can follow our Car Talk Show. So, put pedal to the metal and join us for this thrilling ride!
