In this episode of DriveTime, as the VISION conference kicked off in Chicago, Bill Long, president and CEO of MEMA, The Vehicle Suppliers Association, and Paul McCarthy, president of MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers, addressed supplier sentiment about the current state of the aftermarket, describing it as a mix of urgency and cautious optimism. Industry leaders agree there's never been a more critical time for suppliers to come together, given the wide range of challenges: tariffs, shifting sourcing strategies, profitability pressures, the REPAIR Act, consolidation, and talent and technology concerns. VISION's mission to clarify what success looks like now — and in the future — has never been more relevant.Resilience and OpportunityDespite these challenges, there is strong resilience and opportunity in the aftermarket, stressed Long and McCarthy. While 2024 wasn't a standout sales year, midterm indicators — vehicle age, miles driven and VIO — remain solid. Technology, especially ADAS, is emerging as a key growth area. New research shared at VISION signals that innovation may soon deliver real gains in efficiency and margin. As near-term disruption continues and long-term strategies evolve, suppliers are relying on collaboration and insight to move forward.REPAIR Act Automotive Impact: Supplier Sentiment and Industry Outlook The REPAIR Act (H.R. 1566) is considered essential for the industry's future, Long and McCarthy stressed. Introduced by Rep. Neal Dunn (R-FL-02), this bipartisan bill protects consumer choice, fair market competition and property rights — especially as telematics and over-the-air updates create new barriers. Long and McCarthy emphasized the urgency of passing the bill within this Congressional session — the next 20 months — and underscore that victory will come from continued grassroots action and engagement at the local level.To hear more details about Long's and McCarthy's aftermarket perspective, make sure to watch the video above.Episode Overview:• Supplier sentiment about the current state of the automotive aftermarket (1:10)• Legislative issues and the impact to supplier member businesses (6:02)• Current state of affairs of REPAIR Act legislation (12:36)• Goals of the MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers Training Council (19:25)• Aftermarket Outlook 2025…what did MEMA get right and what did MEMA get wrong?

Shoot us a Text.We're rolling into the big conversations at the 2025 Public Policy Day, where industry leaders and lawmakers shape the future of auto. Plus, CVS is testing a new app feature to unlock products, and Tesla inches toward unsupervised self-driving—though Elon says don't get too excited just yet. Show Notes with links:The press stage is set at ready to go at the 2025 Public Policy Day hosted by WANADA. The 2025 Public Policy Day at the Washington, D.C. Auto Show on January 30 features key industry leaders and policymakers. The day kicks off with a networking lunch, followed by opening remarks from John O'Donnell and a keynote discussion with Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) and Devon Haynie (U.S. News & World Report).Highlights include vehicle reveals from Stellantis (Dodge Charger Daytona, Jeep Wagoneer S) and Nissan (2025 Murano), plus an Aston Martin Vanquish presentation by Bouch Siaf. A fireside chat features Todd Inman (NTSB) and Dave Shepardson (Reuters), while Alex Kwanten presents the Best Cars for the Money Awards.Industry roundtables cover consumer insights (featuring Thomas Castriota, Paul J Daly) and tax/trade policy (Jennifer Safavian, Cody Lusk, Bill Long). The event closes with Michael Cottone (Volvo) and John Bozzella (Alliance for Automotive Innovation).The day concludes with an exclusive Sneak Peek Reception of the Auto Show, presented by Events DC.Elon Musk recently announced that Tesla has initiated "unsupervised self-driving" at its Fremont factory. However, this development is currently limited to vehicles autonomously navigating within the factory premises.Tesla released a video showing cars driving themselves from the production line to loading docks without human intervention.This internal application covers a 1.2-mile route on private factory roads at low speeds.Musk has previously set ambitious timelines for unsupervised self-driving, including a driverless cross-country trip by 2018, which have not been met.The current implementation is a step forward but remains far from the full autonomous driving capabilities promised to consumers.Musk's latest projection targets unsupervised self-driving in California and Texas by the second quarter of 2025.CVS is piloting a new feature in its app that allows customers to unlock anti-theft cabinets themselves, aiming to enhance the shopping experience.The feature is currently being tested in three New York City stores.To use it, customers must be logged into the CVS app, connected to the store's Wi-Fi, and have Bluetooth enabled.This initiative addresses customer frustration with locked cabinets, which, while deterring theft, often inconvenience shoppers.CVS plans to expand the test to 10 to 15 additional stores, including locations on the West Coast."People really, really dislike locked cabinets," said Tilak Mandadi, executive vice president at CVS Health.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

This Sunday, "Sunday Night Playhouse" on Vintage Classic Radio presents a compelling double bill from the "Radio City Playhouse," featuring episodes that highlight the dramatic and emotional range of radio's golden era. Our first story, "Long Distance," aired on September 8th, 1948, stars the versatile Jan Miner, whose career spanned from roles in "Boston Blackie," "Casey, Crime Photographer," and "Perry Mason," to becoming the familiar face of "Madge" the manicurist in Palmolive ads. In "Long Distance," Miner delivers a powerful performance as a woman caught in a web of anxiety and hope as she tries to get a stay of execution for her husband wrongly accused of murder and on death row, trying to reach a judge across the miles with a phone call that could change their lives forever. The episode is a masterclass in suspense and emotional storytelling, utilizing the unique format of radio to its full advantage. Alongside Miner, the episode features John Larkin, whose voice added depth and gravitas to many productions, and a rotating cast of New York's finest actors, showcasing the exceptional talent that made "Radio City Playhouse" a benchmark of radio drama. Following "Long Distance," our double bill continues with "Special Delivery," another gem from "Radio City Playhouse" that originally broadcasted in 1948. This episode takes listeners on a different journey, weaving a story that combines elements of mystery, humor, and unexpected twists of fate. The story centers on a woman rushing to retrieve a letter that she regrets writing with life altering consequences. Join us this Sunday on Vintage Classic Radio for an evening of drama, and a race against time with two highly suspenseful episodes of "Radio City Playhouse."

Zayo's BEAD in the Box program, makes the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment (BEAD) program withing easier reach of the ISP community, Practical steps in Bridging the Digital Divide Its one thing to allocate money to help revitalize rural America. It's a whole other challenge to turn those investments into connectivity. In this podcast, Bill Long, Chief Product and Strategy Officer at Zayo discusses how Zayo is helping make the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment (BEAD) program work at the grassroots level with the BEAD in the Box program. According to Long, the Internet is the highway of today's economy. That highway passes right through rural America, but too often lacks an exit ramp. Too many communities have been left behind, while a digital divide has emerged. The divide impacts lives, limiting economic opportunity, income growth and more, in many places. New legislation designed to deliver connectivity, has a speedbump. It might seem too daunting for an ISP to apply. In this podcast Long discusses how Zayo's Bead in the Box, changes the math on that problem. “Those local ISPs are great candidates for this $43 billion BEAD funding,” says Long. “Zayo has what we're calling Bead in the Box, where if you reach out to our team, we can help. We can partner with you to go and apply together for those funds.” The funds can help ISPs build to homes and businesses in rural areas, while Zayo's program helps ISPs have an easier time journeying through the application process. On June 16, 2023, Zayo was awarded $92.9 million as part of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) Middle Mile Grant Program. NTIA received more than 260 applications, collectively requesting $7.47 billion from the $1 billion available and Zayo is the only national provider to receive this funding. The funding will be used to build critical middle-mile connections, providing broadband connectivity for those in need. Without extensive middle-mile network enhancements, it becomes difficult and costly to establish reliable networks in underserved and unserved communities.
