Inside the Garage: Recalls, Racing, and the Hidden Cost of “Cheap” Car Parts

A bargain part that looks perfect, installs easily, and quietly destroys your engine months later—that’s the nightmare more drivers are waking up to. We dig into the growing wave of counterfeit auto parts sold online, from fake water pumps that toast head gaskets to sensors that never program and starters that die long before their time. As shop policies shift to protect both customers and reputations, we share how to source smarter, when to insist on OEM, and what “too good to be true” looks like in the real world.From there, we widen the lens. A rapid-fire recall rundown spans multiple brands and real safety risks—corroding starter relays tied to fires, camera failures that erase visibility, and steering components that can detach. We talk through how to check your VIN, schedule fixes, and understand why these campaigns matter. Then we have some fun with market surprises in “guess the sold price,” where a resto-mod ’69 Camaro brings big money, a clean ’82 Mustang tempts first-time buyers, and an unlikely Amphicar floats to a premium. The thread through it all is value—when it’s real, when it’s hype, and how to tell the difference.We round out the ride with racing highlights and a compact tour through auto history, connecting today’s choices to yesterday’s milestones—from Henry Ford’s early credibility on the track to the Model T’s scale, the Chevy-Ford rivalry, Plymouth’s role in accessibility, and the elegance and exit of Duesenberg. Along the way, we unpack tire buying the smart way: using trusted installers, reading codes, and understanding OE fitment without falling for counterfeits. If you care about reliability, safety, and the thrill of owning something that lasts, this conversation gives you the tools to buy better and drive with confidence.

Hot rods, hot dogs, and alumni who don’t need training wheels

A shuttered high school, a two-story library, and a parking lot full of chrome—this is how a community keeps its story alive. We welcome Spring Branch Senior High School Alumni Foundation president Frank Klam to share the unlikely journey from a closed campus in 1985 to a living museum that safeguards trophies, uniforms, and hard-won memories the district nearly hauled away. Then we shift gears into the “Back to the Past” car show, a friendly, growing cruise-in where people’s choice ballots matter, goodie bags land in eager hands, and a beloved barbecue team fires the pits to honor a friend who fed the event for years.We talk practicals—entry fees, how to participate, where to find it (9016 Westview Drive in Houston), and how the team is pulling in alumni and enthusiasts from across Spring Branch ISD and the broader Memorial area. The museum isn’t a backdrop; it’s a destination, linking street names to settlers and displaying a copy of an 1824 land grant from Esteban F. Austin, so visitors can connect cars they love to the neighborhood that shaped them. Frank also previews a new oral history project capturing prominent graduates—athletes, artists, and a four-star general—so future students can see what roots can grow.On the industry side, we parse fresh Corvette production data: ZR1 momentum suggests buyers still crave sound, speed, and sensation over hybrid balance. And we close with a street-level review of the Hyundai Sonata N Line—matte silver, 2.5L turbo punch, a column shifter that frees the console, and a ride that’s smooth as butter—along with plainspoken notes on grip, seats, and sound that would take it from quick to compelling.Want to be part of it? Grab the details and register at springbranchbears.com/car show registration, swing by for the show and the museum, and tell a friend who loves cars and local history. If you enjoyed this conversation, follow the show, share it with your crew, and leave a quick review—it helps more people find their way here.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

How beer fests, badge hype, and a sleeper sedan reveal what performance really means

Fall energy meets turbo torque as we jump from steins to stopwatches, mapping the most spirited Oktoberfests in the U.S. before tearing into “muscle cars” that talked big and drove small—then we strap into the 2025 Hyundai Sonata N Line to see what real-world performance feels like today. We start with pure festival joy: Denver turns six downtown blocks into keg bowling, stein hoists, and polka beats; Fredericksburg, Texas doubles down on Hill Country hospitality with 50 beers and a proud German thread; Helen, Georgia leans into storybook Bavarian architecture along the Chattahoochee; and Cincinnati’s Zinzinnati packs in hundreds of thousands for brats, bands, and a gleefully chaotic chicken dance plus those crowd-pleasing dachshund races. It’s a tour of local flavor, beer culture, and family-friendly spectacle that proves tradition thrives when a city makes it its own.Then we flip the script and call out the pretenders. From the Camaro Z28 and Mustang II Cobra II to bloated nameplates wearing legendary badges, we break down how emissions-era limits, weight creep, and marketing overreach diluted true performance. The takeaway is clear: a stripe package can’t outrun physics. That honesty sets the stage for a modern surprise—Hyundai’s Sonata N Line. With a 2.5L turbo four, 290 hp, and 311 lb-ft, it delivers punchy acceleration, smooth shifts from an eight-speed, and a chassis tuned for comfort without feeling sleepy. We dig into the sleek lighting, fastback profile, clean interior with a wide digital display, and the clever column twist shifter that frees up the console. We also call our shots: ventilated seats would be great, the stock tires need more grip, and a selectable exhaust note would match the car’s hot-rod attitude.If you care about festivals, car culture, and where everyday performance is heading, this ride is for you. Hit play, share it with a friend who loves Oktoberfest or horsepower debates, and tell us: which underperforming “muscle” car deserves a second chance—and would you daily the N Line?

Inside the Texas Muscle Car Club Challenge: Grassroots Racing, Real Community, Safer Than the Streets

A friendly grudge, a lit tree, and a time slip—few things capture real car culture like club-versus-club drag racing. We sit down to explore the Texas Muscle Car Club Challenge and how it turns raw horsepower into community, safety, and bragging rights across eighth-mile tracks statewide. Even when a guest’s signal fades, the story stays clear: organize the adrenaline, race where it’s safe, and bring home a slip that proves it.From there, we open the hood on the industry’s moving parts. Dealers are quietly finding gold in their service lanes, making real-time offers to maintenance customers to replace shrinking lease returns and tight auction supply. We break down the math, the goals, and what it means for anyone weighing a repair bill against positive equity. Then we zoom out to used-car retail’s evolving landscape—Carvana’s rebound, why some online car buys feel effortless while others come with surprise steps—and the fine print that separates convenience from frustration.The news cycle adds more heat: potential truck tariffs have Detroit’s big names angling for advantage, and the EV conversation keeps running on two parallel roads—ambition and practicality. We talk charging costs that hit $50 for a 20-minute session, the gap between ad promises and road-trip reality, and the local conditions where electric shines. It’s all wrapped in the heartbeat of the scene: Tailpipes & Tacos returning to Katy, a full slate of cruise-ins, and the kind of Saturday mornings where chrome, coffee, and community collide.If you love honest racing, straight talk on the car market, and the events that bring people together, this one’s for you. Hit follow, share it with your track buddy, and drop your take: where do you stand on EV practicality, and what’s your best time-slip story?Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

From Nervous Driver to Hill Country Hero: A 21-Year-Old’s First Bronco Off-Road School

Ever felt your stomach drop at the top of a blind hill? We handed the wheel to Olivia, a 21-year-old nursing student and brand-new Bronco owner, and watched a long day in the Texas Hill Country turn nerves into mastery. With guidance from veteran auto journalist Sue Mead, Olivia moves from classroom theory to real trail work—learning why GOAT Modes matter, how hill descent control actually feels, and where a forward-facing camera turns guessing into precision. The payoff arrives on a feature aptly nicknamed “roller coaster,” when faith in the process replaces fear of the unknown.We dig into what the Bronco Off-Roadeo delivers for drivers at every level: structured coaching, expert spotters, and a terrain course designed to show how lockers, low range, and smart calibration create grip when the world tilts. New Bronco owners get a complimentary pass within a year, but anyone can book a half-day program and bring guests along. Beyond the dust, the skills transfer directly to night drives on unlit back roads and winter commutes—scan wider, place tires deliberately, and keep momentum measured. Olivia’s biggest takeaway is simple and powerful: the vehicle doesn’t want you to crash, but it’s your steady hands and clear head that make the difference.Then we pivot from trail to tarmac nostalgia with a frank look at muscle cars that wore the jacket but didn’t have the jab—emissions-era legends that taught us the cost of letting marketing outrun engineering. To close, we map five Oktoberfests worth your miles—from La Crosse’s riverside tradition and Denver’s keg bowling to Fredericksburg’s Hill Country polka, Helen’s Bavarian lean-in, and Cincinnati’s colossal Zinzinnati celebration. Come for the Bronco insights, stay for the car culture stories, and leave with a plan to drive smarter on every surface.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves the Bronco or good car stories, and drop us a review with the one off-road feature you can’t live without.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

The Aspire Saga: Car Culture, Comedy, and Industry News

Buckle up for a high-octane exploration of automotive industry trends and challenges that are reshaping the market landscape. We dive deep into the alarming rise of "credit bust out" scams targeting dealerships, where criminals orchestrate the purchase of multiple vehicles through falsified loan applications before credit reports can catch up. One brazen example involved financing six vehicles worth $385,000 through five different lenders in just four days—a stark warning for dealers and lenders alike.The electric vehicle revolution faces a critical juncture as the $7,500 federal tax credit expires and California Governor Newsom reverses course on state subsidies. Major automakers, including GM, Toyota, and Volkswagen, are pushing back against aggressive emissions standards that would require up to 56% of new vehicles to be electric by 2032. The consensus among our hosts? Perhaps it's time for EVs to compete on their own merits without government assistance.Family drama takes center stage in Massachusetts, where brotherly love has given way to courtroom battles at a Toyota and Volvo dealership. The shocking lawsuit alleges financial misconduct, including the termination of salary and health benefits while one brother was recovering from throat cancer. Meanwhile, American Honda pulls the plug on the Acura ZDX after just one model year, and aftermarket giant First Brands Group prepares for bankruptcy with $6 billion in debt.There's encouraging news on the regulatory front as the new NHTSA administrator pledges to modernize outdated rules that hamper innovation. Plus, we highlight exciting upcoming car shows including the Painted Church Cruise and Heroes and Hot Rods Veterans Weekend.Ready to join the conversation about the future of automotive?

Ilan Mandil, founder of OttoFixIt, joins us to unveil how AI technology is revolutionizing the way drivers approach collision repair estimates. By simply snapping photos of vehicle damage, consumers can now receive preliminary cost projections before setting foot in a body shop – finally addressing the anxiety-inducing question: "How much is this going to cost me?"The conversation dives deep into the stratified world of auto body shops, from manufacturer-certified facilities using exclusively OEM parts to independent shops with varying quality standards. Mandil expertly breaks down how OttoFixIt vets repair facilities (requiring 4.5+ star ratings across hundreds of reviews) and why having multiple quotes empowers consumers to make informed decisions based on their specific circumstances and vehicle value. Jeff shares a cautionary tale about his Cadillac SRX repair gone wrong, highlighting exactly why finding reputable repair shops matters.Our journey through automotive culture continues with Jeff's fascinating exploration of badge engineering – the practice of selling identical vehicles under different brand names. From the embarrassing Cadillac Cimarron (a glorified Chevrolet Cavalier) to Volkswagen's triple-identity vehicles and GM's global rebadging strategies, we uncover how manufacturers have sometimes confused consumers with their marketing sleight of hand. The episode rounds out with Marrs' entertaining guide to the Texas State Fair, featuring everything from the iconic Big Tex statue to butter sculptures, thrilling rides, and of course, the comprehensive auto show.

Car Talk & Classic Values

The century-long story of how we value cars has dramatically shifted from dog-eared pages to digital databases. Before the internet, car dealers, buyers, and even divorce courts relied on physical booklets like Kelly Blue Book and NADA guides to determine fair market prices. These guides weren't just reference materials—they were essential tools that brought transparency to a notoriously opaque market.NADA began tracking vehicle values in 1922, creating a standardized system that expanded far beyond dealership lots. During World War II, as manufacturing materials were diverted to the war effort, these guides became crucial in preventing price gouging when used car demand skyrocketed. Even government assistance programs consulted these books when determining eligibility, considering vehicle value as part of an applicant's assets.The digital revolution changed everything. What started with experimental floppy disks and CD-ROMs in the 1990s evolved into sophisticated online platforms delivering real-time valuations based on multiple factors. By 2017, the last physical guides rolled off the presses, marking the end of an era but the beginning of a more efficient system for everyone involved in buying and selling vehicles.This week's episode also covers significant recalls, including a serious Ford steering column defect affecting over 115,000 vehicles. We play our popular "Guess the Sold Price" game with classics like a 1967 Mustang convertible and a stunning 1932 Ford Roadster with flames. Plus, we honor Tsutumo Tom Matano, the visionary designer of the Mazda MX-5 Miata who recently passed away at 78.Whether you're a car enthusiast, industry professional, or simply curious about automotive history, this episode offers fascinating insights into how technology continues to transform the way we value, buy, and sell vehicles.

Exploring Car Paint: The Art and Journey with Randy Borchiding

Randy Borchiding's colorful journey from model car enthusiast to custom paint specialist unfolds with charm and practical wisdom. What started with Testors spray cans and a childhood model contest victory evolved into a full-fledged career creating custom colors for show-stopping vehicles. Randy pulls back the curtain on his early days, revealing how he built his first professional paint booth using nothing more than PVC pipes, plastic sheeting, and box fans with air conditioning filters. "Don't feel like you can't accomplish something just literally in your garage because you don't have a $50,000 box," he encourages, sharing how cars painted in this humble setup went on to compete at prestigious shows like the Grand National Roaster Show.The science behind the art proves fascinating as Randy explains the critical role of temperature in modern urethane painting. Working in environments below 50 degrees can leave paint jobs permanently sticky or mushy – a costly lesson he learned firsthand. His process for creating custom colors evolved organically from customer requests to modify OEM shades, resulting in approximately 50 signature colors that he can reproduce consistently.Currently preparing a hot pink 1968 Roadrunner (aptly named "Ransberry") for the upcoming SEMA show, Randy shares the pressure and timeline of readying show cars for major events. His other project, a 1968 Oldsmobile convertible, demonstrates his versatility – maintaining period-correct aesthetics while incorporating modern performance with an LS3 engine disguised to look like an original Oldsmobile powerplant.The episode also features Jeff's Motor Minute discussing NASCAR's potential horsepower increase to 750 for the 2026 season, followed by Don's enthusiastic review of the 2025 Mazda MX5 Miata Anniversary Edition. Despite having just 181 horsepower, the Miata's exceptional power-to-weight ratio delivers thrilling performance with remarkable efficiency.Subscribe to the In Wheel Time Car Talk Show for more automotive insights, expert interviews, and honest reviews every Saturday from 10-noon Central Time on inwheeltime.com, YouTube, and Facebook.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Dirt, Gravel, and Glory: The Alcan 5000 Rally Adventure

Mercedes and Andy Lilienthal take us on an exhilarating journey through North America's longest road rally - the Alcan 5000. Covering a staggering 5,500 miles from Seattle to Alaska, this husband-wife team pushed their 2026 Honda Passport Trail Sport to its limits across punishing terrain and secured an impressive second-place overall finish.The conversation reveals the fascinating format of this epic adventure: daily time-speed-distance rally segments connected by long-distance travel through some of the continent's most remote regions. While competitors in the "unlimited" class relied on sophisticated rally computers, the Lilienthals triumphed in their "seat of pants" class using nothing more than a $6 calculator, a kitchen timer, and raw mathematical calculations.Their Honda Passport proved the perfect companion, conquering approximately 900 miles of dirt and gravel without a single flat tire. The couple details how they tackled optional "extreme control" routes that earned them the "Go Farther Award," including an expedition to the Arctic Circle through mud-drenched paths and treacherous conditions that left their vehicle "caked full of mud."Beyond the mechanical challenges, the couple shares insights into the human element of rally competition - how they navigate the pressure-cooker environment as partners, their strategies for effective communication under stress, and the camaraderie formed with competitors from around the world. With good humor, Andy admits that Mercedes "sits on the right of the car because she's always right."Having competed in both summer and winter Alcan rallies, the Lilienthals offer perspective on the additional challenges winter brings, from survival concerns in temperatures reaching -50°F to blizzard conditions and closed highways. Their experiences highlight the remarkable resilience required when facing nature's most extreme conditions.Whether you're a rally enthusiast, an adventure seeker, or simply curious about extraordinary automotive challenges, this conversation captures the spirit of pushing boundaries and finding joy in the journey. Follow the Lilienthals' continuing adventures through their Crankshaft Culture platforms and perhaps consider registering for the 2026 summer Alcan 5000 RBe sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Navigating Tariff Turmoil and the 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Review

Buckle up for a deep dive into the automotive industry's latest battle with tariffs that could reshape how we buy and maintain our vehicles. Automakers and suppliers have formally urged the Trump administration to reconsider unpredictable tariff expansions, warning that these policies make investing in America increasingly difficult. The financial impact? A potential $4,600 price increase per vehicle within three years, according to the Center for Automotive Research—a sobering prospect when average new car prices already hover around $50,000.The conversation takes a personal turn as we explore the emotional versus practical considerations of keeping older vehicles. One host shares the dilemma of his daughter's beloved 2007 Ford Focus with 185,000 miles—is the sentimental value worth the maintenance costs and logistics of storing it for occasional use? This sparks a broader discussion about how consumers might adapt to rising costs, including a potential revival of salvaging parts from junkyards as repair expenses climb due to tariff-affected components.Our Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid review showcases why this three-row SUV deserves attention despite its $52,610 starting price. With actual adults fitting comfortably in the third row (thanks to its six-inch length increase over the standard Highlander), impressive fuel economy averaging 29.7 mpg over 475 miles, and what we call "the best-looking front fascia" in Toyota's lineup, it delivers substantial value for families needing space without sacrificing efficiency. We also cover the latest automotive recalls, auction results from Hemmings, and an update on Tony Stewart's remarkable recovery after a 300+ mph NHRA crash.Ready to join the conversation?

Speed, Dirt, and Rivalries: Inside American Racing Culture

The battle between dirt and asphalt tracks, the delicate ecosystem of regional racing, and the high-stakes fall racing season take center stage in this revealing conversation with motorsports commentator Rodney Rodriguez.As Texas transitions into fall, circle track racing enters its most exciting phase with championship battles heating up and big money events drawing competitors from across state lines. Rodriguez highlights the SuperTex 600 at Rocket Raceway Park—a minimal-rules competition offering a potential $25,000 prize—as an example of grassroots racing at its finest, where "you can damn near run anything you have" from bombers to modifieds.Behind this excitement lurks a troubling industry trend: historic venues like Devil's Bowl Speedway closing permanently, forcing racers to travel greater distances while remaining tracks fail to coordinate effectively. The podcast reveals how personal rivalries and business pressures prevent track operators from collaborating on schedules, ultimately hurting car counts and fan attendance. As Rodriguez explains, "Tracks intentionally scheduled on top of each other...that cuts your car count down, that cuts your fan count, it divides the racers."The conversation expands to critique both NASCAR's Next Gen car for being "too smart" and diminishing competition, and IndyCar's abbreviated season that causes the series to "fall off the map" despite having exceptional racing. These industry-wide challenges reflect a motorsport landscape at a crossroads—balancing tradition with innovation while fighting for audience attention.Whether you're a dedicated race fan or simply curious about the culture of American motorsports, this episode offers invaluable insights into the passion, economics, and challenges shaping racing's future.

Highway to Cybersecurity: Safeguarding Cars in the Digital Age

The digital threat landscape for the automotive industry has never been more dangerous. Legendary FBI operative and cybersecurity expert Eric O'Neill joins us to reveal how cyber attackers are targeting major manufacturers with devastating results. Right now, Jaguar Land Rover's production sits paralyzed by a ransomware attack that's already lasted three weeks with no end in sight. These aren't isolated incidents. Just last year, a similar attack against CDK Global crippled 15,000 US dealerships, causing nearly a billion dollars in losses. What's truly alarming is how these breaches ripple through the entire automotive ecosystem - from manufacturers to suppliers to your personal data. Eric breaks down exactly how these attacks happen, why they're so difficult to prevent, and what makes the $18 trillion cybercrime industry so dangerously effective.But it's not just corporations at risk. Eric shares chilling stories of how ordinary people fall victim to sophisticated "phishing" scams through simple text messages that evolve into friendship before turning predatory. The conversation takes a terrifying turn as he explains how elderly victims are "fattened up" before having their life savings stolen through elaborate confidence schemes.We also explore automotive safety from a different angle with Jeff's exploration of racing helmet evolution - from simple leather caps to today's carbon fiber marvels with potential heads-up display integration. And for those seeking autumn adventures, Marrs provides some Texas fall travel tips, from the colorful foliage of Lost Maple State Natural Area to the wine trails of the Texas Hill Country.Want to protect yourself in this digital battlefield? Eric's upcoming book "Spies, Lies and Cybercrime" teaches you to think like a spy to recognize attacks before they happen.

The Lemon Lawyer on Navigating Lemon Laws

Ever wondered what happens when your brand-new dream car turns into a mechanical nightmare? Hovanes Margarian, known as "The Lemon Lawyer," pulls back the curtain on the fascinating world of automotive consumer protection law in this eye-opening conversation.From his unique garage-turned-law-office where client vehicles undergo inspection alongside his personal collection (including a Ferrari SF90 Spider), Margarian reveals the inner workings of lemon law cases that have defined his 20-year career. With remarkable candor, he explains how manufacturers often make strategic decisions about settling claims based not just on case merit, but on their own financial timing and broader liability concerns.The conversation delivers surprising insights that every car owner should know. Margarian explains why class action settlements frequently serve manufacturers better than consumers, offering modest compensation while extinguishing potentially valuable individual refund claims. He also shares how the timeline from claim to resolution can vary dramatically depending on a manufacturer's willingness to acknowledge defects.Beyond legal strategies, the episode takes fascinating detours into automotive technology and history. Jeff explores car innovations directly descended from NASA's space program – from memory foam seats to anti-lock brakes – while Mike guides us through the 178-mile stretch of Route 66 that winds through Texas, highlighting iconic stops like Cadillac Ranch and the official midpoint between Chicago and Los Angeles.Whether you're dealing with a problematic vehicle or simply fascinated by the intersection of automotive culture and consumer rights, this episode delivers valuable knowledge wrapped in entertaining conversation.

Space Tech Hits the Road, Route 66 through Texas and the Lexus LX600

Ever wondered why your car's technology feels so advanced? The answer might be orbiting above your head. We dive into the fascinating world where NASA innovations have transformed everyday driving experiences, from the anti-lock brakes that keep you safe to the head-up display projecting vital information onto your windshield.These aerospace technologies weren't just adapted for automobiles—they revolutionized them. Space shuttle landing systems became the foundation for modern anti-lock braking. Fighter jet displays evolved into the windshield projections in luxury vehicles. The same composite materials that withstand the harshness of space now form lightweight, durable car components. Even your car's precise fuel injection and improved tire technology trace back to solutions originally designed for rockets and lunar rovers.Beyond the technological marvels, we take you on a journey down the historic Route 66 through Texas. Though only 178 miles long in the Lone Star State, this stretch packs incredible attractions—from the iconic Cadillac Ranch near Amarillo to the exact midpoint between Chicago and Los Angeles in Adrian. We explore art deco architecture at the Dew Drop Inn, vintage gas stations, and the neon-lit motor courts that capture the golden era of American road trips. We wrap up with an in-depth review of the 2025 Lexus LX 600, a $121,000 luxury SUV combining opulent features with impressive capability, including a powerful turbocharged V6 that rivals V8 performance.

Car Dealership Discrimination Scandal, Recalls and Market Shifts

The automotive world still has a discrimination problem, and this episode dives deep into a shocking case that cost two Missouri dealerships $275,000 in settlement fees. When Landmark Dodge Ram and Landmark Chrysler Jeep were caught refusing to hire women for sales positions and men for office roles, the EEOC stepped in with a lawsuit that revealed disturbing practices and attitudes. Former HR employees testified that management claimed "women didn't have the respect necessary" for car sales and that training them was "a waste of time."Beyond this central story, we tackle the automotive recall landscape, including Ford's massive 1.5 million vehicle recall for rearview camera issues affecting models from 2015-2019. Numerous other manufacturers face similar challenges, from improperly sealed windshields to potential vehicle rollaways. The industry is experiencing significant market shifts too – Stellantis has canceled its electric Ram 1500 pickup citing slowing EV demand, while Tesla's once-loyal customer base is eroding as owners defect to legacy brands.Our popular Sold Cars Roundup guessing game delivers surprises with classic vehicles selling for unexpected prices. A 1965 Pontiac Bonneville fetched $21,000, while a 1930 Ford Model A went for just $10,000, and a 1966 Ford F100 commanded an impressive $30,450. Meanwhile, lawmakers are finally addressing the catalytic converter theft epidemic with the PART Act, requiring VINs to be stamped on these valuable components. Whether you're interested in industry ethics, market trends, or simply love classic cars, this episode offers insights that go beyond typical automotive coverage.Ready to hear more automotive insights and entertaining discussions?

The Future of Cars: Student-Run Auto Shows and Luxury SUVs

From $150 million in exotic cars managed by college students to the plush comfort of a six-figure luxury SUV, this episode of In Wheel Time takes you on a journey through the fascinating intersections of automotive education and innovation.Katrina Ness, the 62nd general chair of the Northwood University International Auto Show, joins us to discuss what might be the most unique automotive event in America. As a fourth-year student pursuing her MBA, Katrina leads what she describes as "an organization with the most turnover" - a completely student-run auto show featuring hypercars, racing vehicles, and nearly every automotive brand imaginable. With minimal faculty oversight, these 20-something students are entrusted with approximately $150 million worth of automotive assets, including a Bugatti Mistral fresh from Europe and a LaFerrari previously owned by Drake.Beyond the jaw-dropping vehicle lineup, we explore how Northwood University's specialized automotive marketing and management program prepares students for industry careers through hands-on experience. Katrina candidly shares how managing such a massive event has taught her as much about anxiety management as automotive marketing - skills that transcend the classroom and prepare students for real-world challenges.We then shift gears to examine the 2025 Lexus LX600, a luxury SUV that combines opulence with surprising performance. Despite replacing the traditional V8 with a turbocharged V6, this seven-passenger behemoth delivers 409 horsepower and can tow 8,000 pounds while improving fuel efficiency. From its signature oversized spindle grille to unexpected features like a center console that doubles as a refrigerator, we explore what makes this $114,500 vehicle stand out in the crowded luxury SUV market.Whether you're fascinated by the next generation of automotive professionals or shopping for your next luxury vehicle, this episode offers unique insights into both the present and future of car culture.

Behind the Scenes at Savoy Car Museum's Connection Show

The Savoy Car Museum's annual Connection Car Show has evolved into a spectacular gathering of automotive enthusiasts, exceeding all expectations in its third year. Located in Cartersville, Georgia, between Atlanta and Chattanooga, this expanding event showcases the passion and diversity of car culture across the Southeast.Mary Argusza takes us behind the scenes as spectators line up before dawn, eager to experience both the outdoor car show and the museum's impressive indoor exhibits. The museum itself spans 60,000 square feet with five distinct galleries, featuring a strategic rotation system that ensures fresh experiences for repeat visitors. Currently, guests can explore exhibits like "Harvest to Highway" with agricultural vehicles, small block muscle cars, racing Jaguars, and an extraordinary collection of ten Duesenbergs representing every iteration of these legendary automobiles.What makes the Connection Car Show particularly special is its organic growth through word-of-mouth and collaborative relationships with regional car clubs. Though organizers capped show car entries at 300 vehicles, spectator turnout far exceeded expectations, with parking overflowing onto grassy areas surrounding the facility. The event has expanded into a two-day experience featuring a Friday driving tour culminating at the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame, followed by Saturday's main show with People's Choice awards and the coveted Savoy Award.Unique vehicles dotted the landscape, from pristine classics to modified hot rods, with surprising finds like a Minneapolis Moline tractor featuring a cab and jump seat – capable of 40mph speeds but requiring "the length of a train" to stop due to its rudimentary drum brakes. These automotive treasures, primarily from Georgia and surrounding states, showcase the remarkable collections hidden in garages throughout the region.Ready to experience automotive history through a fresh lens? Plan your visit to the Savoy Car Museum and mark your calendar for next year's Connection Car Show – an event that celebrates our enduring fascination with wheels, engines, and the freedom of the open road.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

When Grandpa Should Park It...

Deciding when an elderly parent should stop driving ranks among family life's most challenging conversations. Now, General Motors is developing technology to transform this emotional decision into a data-driven process. Their innovative "driver retirement score" system monitors everything from reaction times to proper use of turn signals, even tracking how often other drivers honk at the vehicle. This comprehensive approach could revolutionize how families approach driving cessation discussions with aging relatives.The timing couldn't be more critical. With nearly 52 million licensed drivers over 65 in America—a 77% increase in just two decades—we're facing unprecedented road safety challenges. According to Triple A, seniors now outlive their ability to drive safely for the first time in history, creating a need for "driving retirement planning" similar to financial retirement planning.But the technology raises fascinating questions about parameters and privacy. Would someone who enjoys driving fast automatically receive a poor score? How might different interpretations of complete stops at stop signs affect results? These considerations highlight the complexity of designing systems that identify genuinely unsafe behaviors while accommodating varied driving styles.Beyond the elderly driver technology discussion, we explore the completely redesigned 2026 Hyundai Palisade. Priced at $58,030 as tested, it offers tremendous value compared to competitors like the Ford Expedition King Ranch at over $86,000. While the Palisade impresses with modern styling and luxurious features, its 3.5-liter V6 struggles somewhat with the vehicle's 5,000-pound weight. We also cover major racing news with Will Power leaving Penske after 17 years to join Andretti's IndyCar team, while Colton Herta prepares for a potential Formula One future.Ready to learn more about automotive innovations, value-packed SUVs, and the future of driving safety?

Regrettable Rides, Texas Trains, and the new Palisade

Climb aboard as we journey through Texas heritage railways and drive some of the most disappointing dream cars ever made. This episode starts with a nostalgic look at Texas' historic train routes transformed into tourist attractions. From the inmate-built Texas State Railroad to the Grapevine Vintage Railroad's themed excursions (including beer trains and Thomas the Tank Engine days), we explore how these metal ribbons of history now create new memories for visitors.The conversation shifts gears dramatically when we reveal six dream cars that owners deeply regret purchasing. The Mercedes CLS Shooting Brake with its endless repair bills, the eco-friendly but perpetually broken Fisker Karma, and the gorgeous but temperamental Alfa Romeo 4C all made the list. These automotive heartbreakers promise exotic looks and driving thrills but deliver wallet-draining disappointment. We explore why the first-generation Tesla Roadster, futuristic BMW i8, and even James Bond's Lotus Esprit leave owners shaken, not stirred.We wrap up with a comprehensive review of the redesigned 2026 Hyundai Palisade. This seven-passenger SUV impresses with its distinctive styling, comfortable interior with customizable lighting, and competitive pricing at $58,300 for the tested Calligraphy AWD trim. However, the 3.5L V6 engine struggles with the vehicle's substantial 5,000-pound weight, particularly during highway passing maneuvers. Is the Palisade the right family hauler for you? Listen to our full assessment and compare it to competitors like the Chevy Suburban Premier ($78,095) and Ford Expedition King Ranch ($86,000).

Teen Driving Dangers: What Parents Need to Know

The financial shock of adding a teenage driver to your insurance policy can feel like a sucker punch to your wallet. In Texas, parents face an average premium increase of 114% – the fourth highest in the nation according to WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo, our special guest this week. While Texas ranks middle-of-the-pack (28th) for teen driver fatalities, this statistic offers little comfort to parents navigating the treacherous waters of teen driving safety and skyrocketing insurance costs.Diving into strategies that actually work, our hosts share personal experiences with driver education approaches across generations. We explore the evolving landscape from school-based programs taught by PE coaches to modern combinations of parent-led instruction and professional driving schools. The conversation reveals an important truth: teens often respond better to driving instruction from authority figures who aren't their parents. Meanwhile, insurance companies offer various paths to lower those painful premiums, including good student discounts and monitoring devices that track driving habits.Beyond teen driving concerns, we cover breaking automotive news including a massive immigration enforcement operation at a Hyundai-LG plant in Georgia, the first-ever Vehicle Quality and Pricing Index showing Buick, Mazda and Toyota leading mainstream brands in reliability and affordability, and a shocking dealership embezzlement case in Midland where the former GM allegedly stole up to $150,000 through various fraudulent activities. Jeff rounds out the episode with a packed calendar of upcoming car shows and events across Texas. Whether you're raising a teen driver or simply passionate about automotive culture, this episode delivers valuable insights and entertaining discussion about the challenges facing today's drivers.Join us live every Saturday morning 8-11am Central on Facebook, YouTube, Twitch and InWheelTime.com, or catch our podcasts on all major platforms.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Road safety takes center stage in this eye-opening episode where we tackle the often misunderstood rules of school bus safety. When those yellow lights start flashing, too many drivers make potentially deadly mistakes. We break down exactly what you need to do when approaching a school bus on various road types and why following these rules is absolutely critical for protecting our children.We uncover a concerning reality about vehicle safety technology that many drivers don't realize—while your car's sensors might detect other vehicles, older models often completely miss pedestrians. This technological blind spot creates serious risks, especially in residential areas where children may dart into the street unexpectedly. Our discussion provides practical advice for staying vigilant behind the wheel, particularly for drivers of larger vehicles with limited visibility.The episode shifts gears to explore dream cars that became nightmares for their owners. From the Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Brake with its endless repair bills to the eco-friendly Fisker Karma that kept mechanics in business, we reveal six prestigious vehicles that left their owners with serious buyer's remorse. Whether it's the beautiful but problematic Alfa Romeo 4C or the space-age BMW i8 that cost more to maintain than some mortgages, these cautionary tales might make you think twice before pursuing that automotive fantasy.For those seeking unique travel experiences, our "Riding the Rails" segment showcases Texas's diverse heritage railroads. From the historic Texas State Railroad to themed excursions on the Grapevine Vintage Railroad (including adults-only wine trains!), these rail journeys offer a refreshing alternative to traditional road trips.
