Denny wins in the desert is a story we've all heard before, but this time it's his 61st NASCAR Cup victory. Our resident NASCAR reporters Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi were on the case, and they took to the airwaves after the race to discuss Toyota's continued dominance in 2026 and how the points standings are starting to look the way we all imagined they would.

As NASCAR moves on from Phoenix to Las Vegas, motorsports reporter Jeff Gluck sits down with two drivers who find themselves at opposite ends of the new points format: Chase Briscoe and Shane Van Gisbergen. They both discuss how their teams are strategizing for the new format, including having an average point total goal for each week to help keep them above the Chase cut-off line. Jeff also chats with reporter Bob Pockrass to learn more about the upcoming IndyCar Series events in Arlington and Washington D.C. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It was a great weekend for motorsports in Phoenix as IndyCar had a successful return to the desert as part of its doubleheader with NASCAR. Conor Daly was in town to take part of the festivities, and he's reporting what he saw on a new edition of Speed Street. He joins Producer Bobby to break down the action from the high paced one-mile oval, debate who was wrong in the on-track collisions and celebrate the enthusiastic environment surrounding the event. They also look ahead to the Arlington Grand Prix this weekend and give some picks for the series' inaugural trip to Jerry Land. Race winner Josef Newgarden joins the show to discuss his 2026 season so far, which currently finds him atop the IndyCar points standings. A sneaky good day in St. Pete and a closeout victory in Phoenix gives the two-time champion a five-point margin over Kyle Kirkwood. The guys discuss using the high line on ovals and how a love for high-speed corners has led to Josef ranking seconds on the all-time IndyCar oval wins list. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What didn't Team Penske win this weekend in Phoenix? After David Malukas captured the pole and Josef Newgarden brought home first place honors in the IndyCar portion of the doubleheader, Joey Logano laid down the quickest lap and Ryan Blaney captured the win in the NASCAR Cup Series. Our resident NASCAR reporters Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi were on the case, and they took to the airwaves post-race to unpack what ended up being a chaotic, tire-cutting affair in the desert.

Big SUVs aren't supposed to feel nimble—yet our week with the 2025 Ford Expedition King Ranch told a different story. We break down what Ford changed for the new generation, from the tasteful exterior touches to a cabin that jumps a class with Mesa Del Rio leather, a sprawling 24-inch driver display, and a crisp 13.2-inch touchscreen. Add second-row captain's chairs, a power-folding third row, B&O Unleashed audio, and BlueCruise with Co‑Pilot360 2.0, and you've got a road-trip rig that treats the whole crew well without turning every maneuver into a chore.Under the hood, the 3.5L twin-turbo V6 and 10‑speed automatic deliver confident acceleration and serious towing capability—up to 9,600 pounds when properly equipped. We share real-world fuel economy and why the Expedition's steering feel and turning radius surprised us more than the spec sheet suggested. Then we zoom out to the buying decision: where the Expedition sits on price across trims, and how it stacks up against the Chevy Tahoe, Toyota Sequoia hybrid, and Nissan Armada. If you're shopping full-size three-row SUVs, these head-to-head details will save you time and test drives.We also get candid about the messier side of modern vehicles: software reliability. From Bluetooth dropouts and lackluster OTA updates to subscription fatigue, we unpack why the “software-defined vehicle” promise keeps tripping over basics. And for EV fans, we discuss Ford's Mustang Mach‑E moving the frunk to the options list to make room for a larger heat pump—proof that packaging choices have real-world trade-offs. To round things out, we share Houston-area cruise-ins and shows, plus where to watch our live stream and catch the podcast on your favorite platform.If you enjoy smart car talk without the fluff, hit follow and share this episode with a friend who's SUV shopping. Leave a quick review to tell us where the Expedition lands on your shortlist and what tech actually matters on your daily drive.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.

Motorsports has always thrived off of the personalities of its competitors. On this episode of the Gluckcast, motorsports journalist Jeff Gluck takes a peek under the helmet and helps paint a picture of some of the most compelling driver-related stories in the sport today. On the heels of a grueling afternoon at COTA that saw him pass out from heat exhaustion, AJ Allmendinger chats with Jeff about his grit and fortitude, and not wanting to give up despite a cool shirt failure during the race. Ty Dillon joins the show to help listeners understand why Richard Childress Racing is taking a chance on the unproven talent of Cleetus McFarland. IndyCar driver and personality Conor Daly calls in to chat about the star power of Pato O'Ward and how it's helping the series rise to new popularity on an international scale. Finally, legendary film director John Dahl joins the show to talk about the importance of the NASCAR Full Speed series and how it helps to humanize drivers to race fans and viewers.

Want a car meet that feels like a festival and functions like a precision machine? We sit down with Gus Flores of The CarMeet Network to unpack how a free mega show can welcome thousands, run smoothly, and still feel personal. Gus shares the core idea—vibe, connect, grow—and how smart logistics, clear parking sections, and real community-building help people find purpose as much as power. From hot rods to Hondas, WRX clubs to classic Corvette owners, the plan is simple: everyone belongs, and the layout makes every build shine.We break down the big details at Team Gilman's north complex: a 10 a.m.–2 p.m. schedule, recommended preregistration that guarantees your spot, and a live three-hour broadcast from the lot. Then the headline-grabber: six vehicles, two from each store, raffled so winners can buy for $1,000 plus TTL. You must be 18, licensed, present, and registered to enter. It's a bold way to give back and put real keys in real hands, and it's already lighting up club chats across Subaru, Mazda, Acura, and beyond. Add a DJ, street-style dogs and burgers from Sasa Burgers, and the electricity of builders swapping stories, and you've got a meet with momentum.We also zoom out to the long game of ownership. Which brands are most likely to hit 250,000 miles? Toyota and Lexus lead with deliberate engineering and incremental updates, Honda follows with proven powertrains, and Chevy shows up strong via Suburban and Silverado. We contrast that with RAM and Jeep's long-term reliability struggles and Tesla's older-model growing pains—practical takeaways for enthusiasts choosing platforms to daily, mod, and keep. To round it out, we map five bucket-list concours events—Amelia Island, Greenwich, Cincinnati, Pebble Beach, and Ironstone—so you can plan a year long show season that spans grassroots grit and world-class elegance.Bring your ride, your crew, and your appetite. Preregister to lock your spot, tune into the live show on-site, and throw your name in the hat for that $1,000 car opportunity. If this episode sparks a plan, share it with your club, hit follow, and leave a quick review so more enthusiasts can find the show.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 2026 IndyCar season is officially off and running, as the series put on a thrilling season opening in St. Pete. Conor Daly was on the scene, taking part as a spotter for Chandler Smith in the companion NASCAR Trucks event and fulfilling his duty as a reserve/developmental driver for Juncos Hollinger Racing. He and Producer Bobby unpack all of the action from the weekend and look ahead to this week in Phoenix. Race winner and defending series champion Alex Palou also joins the show to discuss how his Chip Ganassi Racing 10 team continue to operate in championship form and his takeaways from opening weekend. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Big SUVs don't have to drive like buses. We put the 2025 Ford Expedition King Ranch through a real week of miles and came away surprised by the steering precision, quiet ride, and how easily the cabin tech fades into the background so you can actually enjoy the drive. From the panoramic roof and bronze 22-inch wheels to a 24-inch driver display and 13.2-inch touchscreen, this full-size three-row blends comfort with capability, towing up to 9,600 pounds while returning honest, real-world fuel economy.We break down what matters for buyers: how BlueCruise and Co-Pilot360 2.0 help on long stints, how the B&O Unleashed 22-speaker audio fills the cabin, and why the second-row captain's chairs and power-folding third row make life easier for families. Then we talk money and matchups. The Expedition's pricing strategy ranges from a value-forward Active trim to the fully loaded King Ranch tested here, so cross-shopping the Chevy Tahoe, Nissan Armada, and Toyota Sequoia is essential. We explain who wins on base price, where hybrids shift the math, and why the Expedition's driving dynamics could be the tiebreaker.Durability fans get a deep dive into longevity. We outline why Toyota and Lexus dominate 250,000-mile lists, how Honda's practical engineering earns consistent high-mile results, and where Chevrolet proves its mettle with Suburban and Silverado. We also call out the pain points that keep RAM and Jeep from climbing the charts and explore why Tesla's older models struggle in used reliability rankings even as newer ones improve.To round out the enthusiast calendar, we map five standout concours events—from The Amelia and Greenwich to Cincinnati, Pebble Beach, and Ironstone—so you can plan your year around the cars that made history. Finally we look at the 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross, one of those SUVs that just makes sense. It's compact enough for tight parking spots but roomy enough for groceries, road trips, or the daily commute. The hybrid option boosts fuel economy, the ride is smooth and quiet, and the tech is easy to use. It's practical, affordable, and ready for everyday life without drama. If you love smart car shopping, long-haul ownership tips, and a little dream-garage inspiration, you're in the right place.

A fuel tank you shouldn't fill. Trailer brakes that might not listen when you need them most. We start with straight talk on the week's biggest recalls—Subaru's hybrid fire risk and Ford's 4.3 million-vehicle safety sweep—so you know exactly what to check, how to park, and when to expect a real fix. We cut through the noise around “over-the-air updates,” explain why module communication matters for lights and braking, and outline smart steps to protect your family and your tow.From there, we take you inside the market's mood with our “guess what it sold for” tour through Hemmings. A C3 Corvette punching to $42K, a C4 convertible slipping under $14K, a clean 442 stretching into the mid-twenties, and a '68 Bronco commanding $52.5K reveal what buyers are rewarding right now: originality, presentation, and lifestyle appeal. We also spotlight a sleeper value—a straight '85 GMC 2500 with dog-dish charm—and a '73 BMW 3.0 CS that proves design never goes out of style. If you're hunting a classic, we share the questions and documents that separate a good story from a good buy.We keep the engine warm with a quick spin through the racing slate—NASCAR at COTA, IndyCar in St. Petersburg, NHRA's Gatornationals on deck, and F1 launching in Australia—plus a lively lap through auto history, from Rudolf Diesel's patent to the Watson Roadster and Danica Patrick's breakthrough. Then we zoom out to the business lane: EV losses squeezing profit sharing at Stellantis, the optics of rising CEO compensation, and why dealership tax schemes land in court. It's a full-spectrum look at safety, value, and culture for people who live cars, drive daily, or just love a good story on wheels.Hit play, subscribe, and share with a friend who's eyeing a classic or towing this weekend.

The boys catch up on the RC racing scene during a studio chat. No guests just two guys hanging out talking RC. TJ & Dave talk The Carpy;s Foam Oval Nationals presented by Whitz TriState Series, PTs Dirt Oval, Carpy's move and whatever comes to mind.

As NASCAR embarks on its 77th season of competition, one would think there are no records left within reach of breaking. Tyler Reddick denied that notion today, as he became the first driver in NASCAR history to win the first three races of a season. Our resident NASCAR reporters Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi were on the case, and they reconvened for a new episode of the Teardown to unpack Tyler's historic feat and how he held off none other than SVG to capture the first road course race of the year. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Rodeo hats on, sleeves rolled up, and the garage door wide open—this one blends street-level car culture with the blunt truth about where the auto industry stands. We lay out why major automakers posted eye-popping EV write-downs and what that means for real buyers who just want reliability, value, and a car that fits their life. The takeaway is simple but powerful: the future isn't either-or. Hybrids, EVs, and tried-and-true ICE models will share the road, and smart shoppers can use that variety to their advantage.We map the season ahead—from the Team Gillman Mega Meet to Tailpipes and Tacos—and share a practical spring prep checklist you can tackle this weekend. Wash and decontaminate the paint, refresh trim, and give that K&N filter a proper clean and dry before a light re-oil to keep sensors happy. We also flag a surprising road-trip stat: a 648-mile stretch with no public restrooms. Planning matters, whether you're managing bathroom breaks, plotting charging stops, or just making sure the kids don't hit meltdown mile. Good prep turns long hauls into easy wins.Our test drive of the 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid XSE shows why sensible can still feel special. The two-tone look is sharp, the cabin is simple to live with, and the fuel economy makes daily driving painless. AWD and a refined ride help in bad weather, while pricing stays competitive against the Kia Niro and Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid. Cargo with the rear seats up is tight and the CVT won't thrill, but the balance of comfort, efficiency, and price lands in the sweet spot for commuters and small families.We wrap with quick hits from the racing world, including the Andretti-linked Cadillac chassis naming, and a clear-eyed view of how policy and pricing shape demand. If you care about real ownership costs, weekend shows, and the next car that earns your driveway, you'll find the signal here without the noise.

Touch a screen or tap a button? We take you straight into the dashboard debate reshaping car design as Euro NCAP updates its safety protocols to favor physical controls for core functions like turn signals, wipers, hazards, the horn, and SOS. We unpack why tactile interfaces reduce glance time, how human factors drive safer choices at highway speeds, and where minimalist interiors hit their limits when real drivers need fast, error-proof inputs.From Europe's new rating criteria to China's proposed rules mandating fixed buttons with minimum sizes, the global tide is turning. We explore how major brands are responding: Volkswagen restoring knobs and switches after admitting the all-touch pivot went too far, Mercedes replacing fussy haptics with rockers and rollers, Hyundai keeping high-frequency hardware to lower stress, Tesla reportedly reviving turn signal stalks, and BMW balancing sweeping displays with dedicated safety buttons. It's not anti-tech; it's pro-context—screens for setup and infotainment, hardware for what you must hit without looking.We widen the lens with a quick lap through the racing calendar and a timely tour of auto history, showing how innovation thrives within clear rules. Then we connect the dots to today's EV market reset, with carmakers writing down big bets as adoption slows. The throughline is simple: design that honors human realities wins. Less menu-diving, more muscle memory. Fewer taps, more trust.If you care about smarter car interfaces, safer roads, and technology that serves drivers—not the other way around—this episode is your roadmap.

Atlanta this past weekend was exhilarating, and Jeff Gluck is here to put a bow on it. He sits down with the major news makers of the week, including Carson Hocevar who found himself in the headlines again despite coming up short in the Cup race and Rajah Caruth, who is quietly putting together an excellent O'Reilly Series season. Jeff also chats with young phenom Brent Crews ahead of his O'Reilly Series debut and the man who makes the exciting calls for the series, commentator Adam Alexander.

Craving a road trip that feels like a rolling car show with heart? We map out the Hot Rod Tour of Texas with organizers Bobby and Sabra Sparkman and dig into why this hill country run sells out fast, brings a symphony to the town square, and caps the weekend with a secret drive-in feature on the biggest screen at Stars and Stripes. From the free Thursday night kickoff in downtown Victoria to carefully scouted stops that can handle 350 cars, you'll hear how the team balances logistics, safety, and pure fun.We share what registration includes—driver and passenger shirts, two catered meals, and venue access—and why Eventbrite helps keep scammers away. The route heads north through the hill country with a Texas history stop at a restored fort, quick time at a beloved New Braunfels shop, and awards at the Luckenbach post office. Hotels in Victoria, New Braunfels, and Fredericksburg filled fast, so we offer tips on booking and why planning early matters. Along the way, we spotlight the culture that makes this tour special: teens piloting with grandparents, builders unveiling progress, Sabra's hand-made caps selling out, and the Cobars returning to play beneath vintage aircraft.We also widen the lens. Bobby's crew supports car culture year-round with city shows, festival events, and cruises that keep people driving rather than parking. Then we switch gears for Motor Minute and tackle planned obsolescence—myth or real strategy—and close with a frank review of the Hyundai Santa Fe hybrid calligraphy AWD, covering design, mileage, and everyday comfort.Spots are already about 75 percent full. Join the ride, invite your co-pilot, and get your registration in before the last weekend of April sneaks up.

What if your tires could quietly renew their own grip as you drive? We kick off with a clear look at regenerative tire technology, unpacking how smart materials might maintain tread depth, extend tire life, and improve braking and safety in wet and dry conditions. From early patents to bold prototypes, we highlight Goodyear's recharge concept and Michelin's expanding tread blocks, then get honest about the hurdles that stand between lab success and daily commuting: durability, heat cycles, debris, and cost.Then we trade lab coats for landscapes and plan a spring pilgrimage across Texas bluebonnets. We share practical, photo-friendly routes with timing tips shaped by weather and bloom cycles. The Willow City Loop near Fredericksburg brings sweeping hills and Indian paintbrush accents; Muleshoe Bend near Spicewood frames Lake Travis with easy trails and family space; Ennis maps more than 40 miles of viewing with a festival vibe; Brenham's barns and fences add texture to wide fields; and the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin offers curated displays that respect the land. Think golden-hour light, weekday visits, and staying on public roads to protect fragile blooms.To round out the ride, we deliver a grounded review of the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid Calligraphy AWD. The boxy, modern design turns heads, while a two-foot display span, separate climate controls, dual wireless charging, and comfortable seating for up to seven make daily life simple. The 1.6L turbo hybrid returns strong real-world mpg with calm, composed handling, and the cabin feels thoughtfully laid out—though we still wish for a dedicated volume knob. We compare pricing and rivals like the Kia Sorento, Toyota Highlander, and Mitsubishi Outlander, and share straight-talk shopping advice so you can find the right trim at the right price.Join us to connect future-focused tire tech with near-term road trips and a practical SUV you can buy now.

Ever wonder who keeps carburetors, vacuum lines, and timing lights from fading into history? We dive into the real engine behind reliable repairs: master technicians who mentor the next generation. From GM's retention strategies and structured apprenticeships to the practical steps a curious student can take, we map a clear path into a modern shop while preserving the old-school feel that tablets can't teach.The headlines got hotter than a runaway pack as we unpack current recalls, including EV battery fire risks and what smaller fire departments can and cannot do when lithium-ion ignites. We translate recall notices into plain steps you can take—VIN checks, dealer conversations, and realistic expectations—without the noise. Then it's onto our sold-car showdown: a sleeper-priced AMC AMX, a tidy '57 Thunderbird, a six-figure Defender, and a shockingly affordable Mercedes SEL that proves entry price and ownership cost are two different lanes.Community keeps the hobby running, so we spotlight cruise-ins and charity meets where tacos, trophies, and mentorship collide. These events are where future techs meet shop foremen, where schools find parts and partners, and where stories become careers. We round it out on the factory floor with Toyota's use of humanoid robots to handle repetitious tasks, and what that means for human roles, from maintaining automation to elevating quality control.

Ever wondered how a body shop brings a modern, sensor-packed car back to life after a crash? We sit down with Andy Noyes from asTech, driven by Reparify, to unpack the behind-the-scenes tech that turns chaos into confidence: remote OEM diagnostics, precise calibrations, and factory-level programming delivered through a simple plug-in device. From pre-repair scans that reveal hidden restraint faults to post-repair verifications that ensure every module is talking, you'll hear how shops cut delays, reduce supplements, and hand back vehicles that are truly road ready.We dive into real-world cases where this approach shines. Airbag deployments aren't just about swapping a module—procedures can call for new seat belts, sensors, and software steps that vary by brand. Windshield replacements on late-model cars now demand camera calibrations, and we explore why cheap glass can sabotage those efforts even when the camera is mounted correctly. Andy explains how brand specialists pair OEM tools over the internet to program radar modules, run seat weight initializations, and diagnose intermittent ABS issues with live data, saving days of trial and error and protecting drivers from unsafe ADAS behavior.If you manage a collision center, handle glass installs, or simply drive a car built in the last decade, this conversation makes the new repair reality clear and practical. You'll learn why generic scanners miss key modules, how pay-per-use remote support scales from a few jobs to dozens daily, and how transparent reports help set expectations with insurers and customers alike. We round out the show with a quick look at regenerative tire tech on the horizon and a field guide to the best Texas bluebonnet routes for your next drive.If this helped demystify modern repairs, follow the show, share it with a friend who wrenches, and leave a rating with your biggest calibration question—we may answer it on air next week.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 EV boom was supposed to be a straight shot. Instead, Detroit is eating billions in write-downs, canceling high-profile electric models, and quietly steering profits back toward gas and hybrid vehicles. We pull the curtain on the strategy shifts behind the headlines, from GM's van retreat and Ford's Lightning pivot to Stellantis' sobering projections, and talk through what buyers have been saying all along: price, range, charging speed, and convenience still rule the decision.We connect the policy dots too. When fuel economy penalties relax and federal tax credits wobble, the spreadsheets change—fast. That's why platform choices matter so much right now. Dedicated EV architectures promise efficiency but trap capital if adoption slows, while flexible platforms and smart hybrid lineups offer a safer mix. We share first-hand charging experiences that show how infrastructure and real costs shape daily life: a Tesla plug that fills a workday gap feels great; a pricey fast charge on a road trip does not.Autonomy has its own turbulence. As robotaxi pilots expand to cities like Dallas and Houston, each incident stresses public trust. We lay out the safety narrative, why transparency beats hype, and how autonomy could still reshape mobility with patience and proof. Then we shift gears to something every enthusiast can use this weekend: a curated guide to Texas' most rewarding drives, from FM 170's river-carved sweep to the Twisted Sisters' blind crests and switchbacks. Expect clear cautions on traffic, limited fuel, scarce charging, and the best times to go.Along the way, we spotlight community: cruise-ins, cars and coffee, and local meetups that keep car culture vibrant even as the industry recalibrates. Our takeaways are simple: hybrids are the right-now value play, EVs need frictionless charging and honest pricing, and flexible manufacturing beats wishful thinking. If you care about where mobility is headed—and want a great road to enjoy today—this one's for you.Enjoyed the show?
