Topics range from the joys of using a vehicle for what it's for, the Sierra, the ski resort duopoly, transportation conundrums, Porsche shop updates, NSX pipe dreams, the true cost of the ultimate BaT photo gallery, and open bars at school auctions. Then, to the meat of the matter: fluffy marketing phrases we don't use at BaT, and why. They discuss the power of saying \"I don't know,\" paint meter usage, the \"squishy\" terms of the car world, how the listing process works behind the scenes,  the ethics and the judgment that define BaT style, and why transparency from the start is always the best idea.Follow along!
