Show Notes
China and Japan are at each other's throats again, this time over allegations that Toyota bribed dealers in China to steer customers toward their in-house financing arm. Ford revealed a teaser shot of its redesigned global Ranger pickup. The tire industry -- and by extension, the auto industry -- is facing a rubber shortage as droughts then heavy rains hamper production in Asia. All that and more, plus John shares a few of his thoughts on the design of the 2011 Jaguar XJ.
