This involves an apology to Producer Randy. (See the Car Stuff Podcast Facebook page for pictures of recent donut selections.)Tom discusses some issues he had driving the excellent 2026 Nissan Leaf EV crossover. Tom’s issues include getting snowed in, and understanding the available charging options. Still in the first segment, Jill reviews the new Lucid Gravity midsize electric crossover. Jill is impressed by Lucid’s second-ever model offering, but has a couple of concerns. Listen in for details. In the second segment, the hosts welcome TJ Campbell, Tire Rack Information and Testing Manager, to the show. TJ talks about general winter-driving safety, and makes the economic case for Snowbelt residents to own a dedicated set of winter tires to swap on and off their vehicles seasonally. It’s a great conversation you don’t want to miss. In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “One Minute” stop-watch quiz. How much stuff can Jill remember about cars in 60 seconds? Listen in to find out. Finally, Jill and Tom discuss the new Jeep Recon electric off-road SUV--as seen at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Will the Recon be the next Wrangler, or an expensive boutique toy? Listen in for details. "},"annotations":[{"startTime":309.76,"endTime":312.24,"type":"car","title":"Nissan Leaf","url":"/cars/nissan/leaf","image":"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/62/2017_Nissan_LEAF_%28ZE0_MY17%29_hatchback_%282018-11-02%29_01.jpg","quote":"In more fun news, I finally drove the Nissan Leaf.
