Show Notes

Jill and Tom opened the show noting that legendary Car and Driver/Automobile Magazine writer Jean Jennings had died. Formerly Jean Lindamood, she had, per Tom, helped define the tone and personality of Car and Driver at a time when the magazine was most influential. 

Tom went on to question the profile of a LinkedIn user who self describes as, “Gen Z Career Coach, Content Creator, and TikTok Consultant." Listen in for Tom’s complete analysis. 

Jill shared her previously embargoed drive impressions of the all-new Dodge Charger Daytona electric muscle car. Jill noted that social-media trolls are pushing back when it comes to the brand replacing a gasoline-powered V8 engine with electric motors. The hosts also speculated about a possible return of the storied Hemi V8 engine. 

In the second segment, Jill and Tom welcome Sam Fiorani of AutoForecast Solutions. Sam Laid out the possible impact of massive tariffs applied to vehicles coming out of Canada and Mexico. Sam also explained the history of the “Chicken Tax.” 

In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom’s “Is it a Hyundai?” quiz, and the hosts review October EV registrations—there are a couple surprises on the list.
