Spark Plugs to Electric Cars: Auto History and Valuing Classics. Plus the Subaru Impreza RS review!
About this episode
Exploring the evolution of automotive tools and technology, this episode dives into the history of spark plugs and the shift towards electric vehicles. The hosts share amusing anecdotes about outdated tools and their relevance today, while also discussing the new Subaru Impreza RS. With insights on its design, performance, and practicality, the review highlights what makes this compact hatchback stand out. Additionally, the episode includes a lively segment on classic car valuations, showcasing various models and their market worth.
Remember the time you tried to set the gap on your spark plugs and ended up with more grease on your shirt than on the car? Ah, those were the days, and in our latest episode, we take a walk down memory lane to chuckle over the automotive tools that now rest in peace, thanks to modern technology. From the clink of distributor wrenches to the hum of electric motors, this is one episode where past meets future, and every gearhead gets a front-row seat.
Now, let's shift gears and talk turkey—and by turkey, we mean the kind that pairs well with whiskey cake and a side of car valuation banter. We may have missed out on dessert, but we sure made up for it with a hearty course of guessing the worth of some classic beauties sold by Hemmings', like a '78 Corvette Coupe and a '69 Ford Torino. Between the laughter and the head-scratching debates over real versus imitation horseradish, we serve up a glimpse into the culture that fuels our love for the automotive world. Tune in for the nostalgia, stay for the laughs, and maybe even pick up a tip or two for your own classic car collection.
