Imagine if every morning commute required firing up a boiler, watching a pressure gauge, and possibly losing your eyebrows in a steam-related mishap—sound crazy? Well, it almost happened! This week on AutoKnerd, we dive headfirst into the wonderfully strange and largely forgotten world of steam-powered cars. From Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot's crash-prone invention to the ridiculously impressive Stanley and Doble steamers, we'll explore a reality where brass replaced plastic, steam replaced gas, and “waiting for pressure” replaced road rage. Whether you're selling cutting-edge cars or just nerding out on automotive oddities, this episode offers hilarious insights into how innovation, convenience, and common sense don't always arrive in the same vehicle. Subscribe now so you don't miss your weekly dose of automotive madness—and maybe you'll learn exactly how not to pitch a car that takes 30 minutes to start.

Buckle up, AutoKnerds, because today we're diving into one of the wildest ideas in automotive history—nuclear-powered cars! That's right, once upon a time, engineers and dreamers thought the best way to fuel your daily commute was with a miniature nuclear reactor. What could possibly go wrong?   In this episode, we'll explore two of the most infamous attempts at making this atomic fantasy a reality: ☢ The Ford Nucleon – Ford's 1958 vision of a car powered by a tiny fission reactor (because swapping out uranium cores instead of oil changes sounded fun). ☢ The Simca Fulgur – A French concept car that wasn't just nuclear-powered but also voice-controlled and autonomous. Basically, it predicted modern tech—just with way more radiation concerns.   Along the way, we'll break down the atomic-age optimism that led to these wild designs, why they ultimately never hit the road, and—most importantly—what sales professionals can learn from these over-promised, under-delivered vehicles. Because if history has taught us anything, it's that customers don't love being sold a dream that turns out to be impossible.  

The DeLorean DMC-12 wasn't just a car—it was a vision of the future. Stainless steel body? Check. Gull-wing doors? Check. A marketing campaign that made it the must-have ride of the early ‘80s? Absolutely. So how did this dream machine turn into one of the biggest automotive flops of all time? In this episode of AutoKnerd, we take a deep dive into the story of John DeLorean, his revolutionary car, and the moment the world lost faith in his brand. From Hollywood hype (Back to the Future, anyone?) to corporate chaos, we explore the key sales and branding lessons behind this cautionary tale. And of course, we sprinkle in some Ready Player One vibes and a few ‘80s pop culture nods for good measure. If you love automotive history, sales psychology, and learning from the past, this one's for you!
