Pike's Peak, Plug-In Vehicles, and a Red Hot Chevy Tahoe RST Experience
About this episode
The episode features a lively discussion about the upcoming Pike's Peak race with guest Richard Tomlin, who shares insights on the event's logistics and challenges, including altitude sickness for both cars and drivers. The hosts also delve into the implications of California's emissions regulations on plug-in vehicle availability, particularly for Stellantis dealers. Additionally, Mars reviews the new Chevy Tahoe RST, highlighting its performance features and luxury options, while the team engages in humorous banter about cars and local events.
Ever tried to remote start a vehicle and failed? Don't worry, Marrs had the same problem! Tune in to our exciting episode as we explore the world of plug-in vehicles and dealerships being unable to get them without customer orders in 14 states. But wait, there's more - we also welcome special guest Richard Tomlin, who's getting ready for the next Pike's Peak Hill Climb - The Race to the Clouds.
We're not stopping there, though! Our fascinating chat continues as we delve into the challenges Underground Performance faced driving a Tesla up Pike's Peak, including how altitude affected their journey. Plus, we share Marrs' review of the new Chevy Tahoe RST, complete with its eye-catching red custom paint job, six-passenger seating, and upgraded package.
