Jason takes a trip to the new Tire Rack/Discount Tire/America's Tire testing facility in Texas: Treadwell Research Park. In addition to testing grip levels on BMWs and Jeeps on a monstrous wet skid pad, off-road course, rock crawling trail and more, he discovers the many lessons to be learned by carefully studying tire wear data – including how where you live can have a huge impact on how quickly you burn through your tires! === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US. Visit vyperindustrial.com and use code CARMUDGEON for $50 off. === In this episode, we learn that Tire Rack, America's Tire and Discount Tire are all the same thing! But, more importantly, they now have a giant tire testing facility in Texas: Treadwell Research Park – an expansive property with dirt and mud trails, rock crawling, water crossings, serious grades, an absolutely enormous skid pad (that can be completely submerged in 2 mm of water in no time thanks to a pair of huge reservoirs and some seriously powerful pumps) and even a wet slalom course. Jason experienced all Treadwell had to offer behind the wheel of a 4-door Jeep Wrangler and BMW 330i and reports back. We'll learn that at America's Discount Rack you can get free tire rotations (with tire purchase) and free flat repair (no purchase necessary!). But they don't hand out these services out of the kindness of their tire-loving hearts. It's all part of Treadwell's plan to collect and analyze all kinds of tire wear data to help customers make informed decisions when buying new tires and make better tires. They'll collect information about a tire's make, model, mileage, geographic location and more to find what compounds and tread patterns are best for specific use cases and guide customers to the best choice for their vehicle, driving style, climate, and location. For instance, they have discovered that folks living in twisty, hilly western Pennsylvania go through tires 20% faster than folks living in Nebraska. Derek suggests Treadwell implement a tire wear score so enthusiasts can compare notes and compete for total tire destruction domination. Similar to Treadwell Research Park (and Tire Rack's other testing facility in South Bend, Indiana), Derek had the chance to experience a flooded skid “pan” at the CHP's emergency vehicle operations course (EVOC) training grounds driving in Ford Crown Victorias and Dodge Chargers. Jason Fenske of Engineering Explained has been on a mission to teach the world about the importance of tires, and recently pitted a F80 BMW M3 Competition on mid-grade tires against a diesel Chysler PT Cruiser wearing fresh Continentals. Science ensued. Tires are indeed very important – and while some *coughpirellicough* will grip like no other, they tend to disintegrate in short order (and dramatically so). But they're not all bad – the guys have kind things to say about the Cinturato CN36 and CN12. But the Carmudgeon tire of choice remains Michelins and Vredsteins, which are mounted on everything from Jason's e-Golf, the Van, Jynah, the Ferrari 308, Derek's R129, and even Jake's wife's Crosstrek. The guys will also discuss the Avon CR6ZZ, Trofeos and Cup 2s. Plus the Michelin AS3+ on Jason's Mom's Golf that wore down unusually quickly – this right after he had just replaced some 2-year-old cracking Hankooks with them. Perhaps his mom's regular and sustained driving at 100 mph is to blame… We'll also cover cheap lighting from oh, oh, oh, O'Reilly's, Wagner halogens, and automotive lighting gemstones from Carello and Marchal.

The 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona and the 2025 Polestar 3 Launch Edition are two of the quickest vehicles we've ever road-tested. Their sizzling 0-60-mile-per-hour times might also set your hair on fire. Yet, as quick as those two battery-electrics and as technologically savvy as they are, they are very different. That's what co-host Matt DeLorenzo and host Jack Nerad discovered as they tested the two vehicles this week. The 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona is a bold, all-electric muscle car featuring a sleek, aerodynamic design and cutting-edge technology. Built on Dodge's new STLA Large platform, it delivers up to 670 horsepower in its top performance trim, which allows the Daytona to rocket from 0 to 60 mph in just about 3 seconds. That heart-stopping go-power places it among the quickest modern performance cars. Its most controversial feature is the Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust that delivers ersatz muscle car sounds, which thrilled one of our hosts and turned off the other. The 2025 Polestar 3 Launch Edition aims to redefine the luxury electric SUV with its minimalist Scandinavian styling, 489 horsepower, 620 lb-ft of torque, and all-wheel drive. Despite weighing over 5,000 pounds, it manages a brisk 0–60 mph time of about 4.5 seconds, helped by active air suspension and torque vectoring. Inside, it offers premium touches like ventilated Nappa leather seats, a panoramic glass roof, a Bowers & Wilkins sound system, and a slick Android Automotive OS with Google built-in. But is its reliance on the large 14.5-inch touchscreen for most functions distracting? Is its $88,100 price with options just too high? And will it be the victim of Chinese tariffs? Matt and Jack will have the answers. We have two great guests for you this week. Danielle Livingston is a marketing expert, and Jake Robin is a product expert on the brand-new Toyota 4Runner. Jack Nerad had a chance to chat with them recently about that very cool new SUV, so we're sure you'll enjoy what they have to say. We have an EV expert with us this week, so it's appropriate that we look at the current state of EVs in the United States and where the market might be headed. J.D. Power's E-Vision report is the source of our conversation starters. Of course, tariffs in the auto industry continue to grab headlines. Again this week, with veteran industry reporter Matt DeLorenzo aboard, we'll tell you what is real and what is hype and give you thoughts on how you should proceed if you're planning to buy a car. So we have tons of show for you this week. Jack Nerad's newest book Jack is now offering his newest crime novel, Only One Thing Stays the Same, at a pre-publication price of just $4.99.

Tucked away in Brookshire, Texas stands a temple to American automotive culture that defies expectations. This week, we broadcast live from HEMI Hideout, where owner John Hovis welcomes us into what he modestly describes as "a man cave that got a little bit out of control."The result is breathtaking – over 4,500 pieces of rare automotive memorabilia and signage covering nearly every available surface, alongside a meticulously curated collection of classic Mopar muscle cars. Walking through HEMI Hideout feels like stepping into a time capsule, with neon and porcelain signs dating back to the early 1900s creating a dazzling backdrop for Detroit's finest horsepower machines.John shares fascinating stories about his collection process, revealing that only 7% of his 324 neon signs are actually illuminated – an optical illusion that makes the space feel even more vibrant and alive. The wooden interior siding carries its own history, salvaged from his grandparents' two-story dry goods store built in Brookshire during the late 1800s.The automotive highlights are equally impressive, from an 880-horsepower 1968 Dodge Charger to a 750-horsepower 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner. John's collecting philosophy is refreshingly practical: "Buy these cars already done – you can do this yourself and then it's worth half what you spent." Each vehicle has a personality, including a 1970 Dodge Charger RT nicknamed "Nadine" that John describes as "possessed," keeping a wrecker on speed dial whenever he takes it out.Despite the seemingly packed spaces, John reveals the collection continues growing, with several significant signs added just months before our visit. "It looks full," he notes with a collector's gleam in his eye, "but it's never going to be full." For anyone who appreciates American muscle, vintage advertising, or simply the passion of dedicated collectors, HEMI Hideout represents something truly special – a living museum where the rumble of V8 engines meets tBe 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!ProAm Auto AccessoriesProAm Auto Accessories: "THE" place to go to find exclusive and hard to find parts and accessories!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

We're celebrating our 1st anniversary with the turbo-charged, melodrama-soaked, gravity-defying classic that redefined what a Great Bad Movie truly is. Fast Five is the Citizen Kane of car-based heist movies. We saved this one for a special occasion, because Fast Five isn't just any movie — it's a beautifully chaotic mix of telenovela-level emotional showdowns, dialogue that sounds philosophical but means almost nothing, and incredible action sequences with things you've never seen before. Is it absurd? Absolutely. Is it brilliant? Unquestionably. Is it a little bad? Ummmmmm, all we can say is we love every second of it.Come celebrate with us as we toast to one year of great cinematic achievements, and honor the film that somehow made dragging a vault through Rio with two Dodge Chargers look cooler than it has any right to.Check out this episode's page on our websiteSubscribe to Great Bad Movies wherever you listen to podcastsMore Great Bad Movies online:InstagramGreat Bad Movies WebsiteYouTubeEmail us at greatbadmoviesshow@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

This week, Kelsey makes you thirsty. The Creeps try two different wonderful sodas: Dr. Pepper Blackberry Zero Sugar, and also Coca-Cola Orange Cream Zero Sugar. I only mentioned one of these sodas in the title because the Orange Cream pop removes joy and vitality from all it touches.Then, Matt delves into his love of cars and how he doesn't want your precious Dodge Charger or gross Kia to be stolen, taken for a joy ride by idiots who can all too easily break in and take your ride for a spin. The main example Matt gives us comes from downtown Atlanta, where three kids were arrested after stealing and then crashing a Dodge Charger.The Creeps also talk about lying, Funcles, swear words, gummy snacking from your kid's stash, Vanilla Coke texture, criminal baby cats, and flavor that won't leave, like an unwanted guest in your mouth house.

In Podcast #342, John Davis and the MotorWeek crew are back from a variety of first drives…from big to small utes and an all-electric hot rod! We begin with Nissan's big ravamp to their full-size Armada. Then we shrink down to entry-level with the refreshed Volkswagen Taos. And we'll cross the finish line in the next generation Dodge Charger…specifically the new all-electric Daytona models! Plus, our Lightning Round addresses the potential dangers of knockoff charging adapters and a few listeners were wondering why Jessica recently sold her Ford Maverick.

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. 

If you follow the social chat, there is no doubt that the groundbreaking Dodge Charger Daytona is the most controversial car to come down the road in decades. In what might be termed a fan's love-hate relationship, Dodge's first all-electric muscle car is poised to redefine the segment with amazing capabilities, but it's clear some folks don't want the segment to be redefined. At the same time, many are cheering the innovative Dodge, saying it points musclecars in the right direction. This week, we dive right into the deep end of that pool, as Host Jack Nerad not only road-tested both soon-to-be-available versions of the battery-electric musclecar but also conducted an exclusive interview with its Chief Engineer, Audrey Moore. We'll have all that for you in this week's show. No matter how you feel about battery-electric performance cars, there is no doubt that the Dodger Charger Daytona is a runner. Combining blistering performance with cutting-edge technology, the sleek two-door is offered in a pair of high-performance trims: the R/T and the Scat Pack. The R/T delivers 496 horsepower and 404 lb-ft of torque, while the Scat Pack produces a jaw-dropping 670 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque. In its highest-performance form, the Scat Pack rockets from 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and completes the quarter-mile in an estimated 11.5 seconds. Beyond the numbers, Dodge has designed the Charger Daytona to retain its musclecar soul with its controversial Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust that produces a simulated engine roar. Both trims also offer a PowerShot feature for an instant 40-horsepower boost, multi-mode drive settings, and advanced safety and connectivity options via the Uconnect 5 system. Nerad sampled all of it in Chandler, Arizona. Road Test Vehicles The 2025 Land Rover Defender continues to uphold its reputation as a rugged yet refined off-roader, offering unmatched capability for adventure seekers. Co-Host Chris Teague tested the Defender in Maine's challenging winter conditions, where it excelled with its advanced all-wheel-drive system, configurable Terrain Response modes, and impressive ground clearance. The Defender's iconic design blends heritage with modern sophistication, and Teague will tell how it fared during his weeklong test. The Toyota Tacoma Trailhunter is Toyota's answer to the overlanding trend, purpose-built for off-road enthusiasts who crave the wilderness. Jack Nerad explored all its capabilities, including the i-Force Max hybrid engine delivering 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. The Trailhunter boasts a unique suspension co-developed with ARB, featuring 2.5-inch forged monotube shocks and rock rails for extreme terrain. Features like a modular utility bar with MOLLE panels, onboard air compressor, and 33-inch Goodyear tires demonstrate this vehicle has the stuff off-road enthusiasts would put on their own trucks. Nerad will have his review in this week's show. News of the Week On the international front, Europe's once-dominant automotive industry is facing a crisis, with challenges ranging from tightening emissions regulations to rising competition from Chinese EV manufacturers. The ripple effects could have significant implications for the U.S. market, and we'll explore what it means for American drivers. Meanwhile, Mercedes-Benz is making history with the introduction of the first-ever battery-electric Popemobile for Pope Francis, combining sustainability and tradition in a vehicle that aligns with the Vatican's commitment to eco-friendly innovation. For those planning an electric road trip, fear not! We've got essential tips to help you navigate charging stops and optimize your journey. And we'll see how they match up with Chris Teague's real-world EV ownership experiences. FREE STUFF: America on the Road is giving listeners a free copy of Jack R. Nerad's book The GR Factor: Unleashing the Undeniable Power of the Golden Rule.

Shoot us a Text.Today's the day when we release More Than Cars episode 4: Mohawk Chevrolet at 1PM! Oh and we're also talking about Rivian and VW's finalized joint venture, how the UAW is struggling to gain momentum following last year's big wins and how Dodge is adjusting its EV and ICE muscle car plans.Show Notes with links:Rivian Automotive and Volkswagen Group have finalized a significant joint venture worth up to $5.8 billion to advance electrical architecture and software for future EVs, utilizing Rivian's current tech.Since the venture was announced in June, VW's investment in Rivian has grown from an initial $5 billion.Rivian brings its advanced EV technology, while VW contributes its vast manufacturing scale.The initial phase includes deploying Rivian's system in VW vehicles, launching Rivian's R2 by 2026 and VW's Scout brand vehicles by 2027.The partnership focuses on electrical architecture and software, not hardware, though Scout Motors CEO Scott Keogh hinted Scout's EVs will leverage the tech.“By combining complementary expertise, we aim to reduce costs and accelerate new tech,” VW's Oliver Blume stated.This venture is crucial for Rivian's financial strategy, as it faced a $1.1 billion Q3 loss amid slowed revenue and production.Outspoken UAW President Shawn Fain is facing mounting obstacles in organizing nonunion U.S. factories owned by Toyota, Hyundai, Mercedes, and others amid a shifting political and corporate landscape.Following historic labor deals with the Big 3, Fain aimed to build on momentum, targeting new factories, especially in the South.Despite a spring win at VW, recent efforts at Toyota and Hyundai encountered resistance, as these automakers raised wages to counter unionization drives.Initially focusing on a rapid approach, Fain encouraged online union pledges and fewer traditional one-on-one meetings. At Mercedes in Alabama, a quick vote resulted in a narrow loss, with 56% against unionizing.“It wasn't like we got annihilated there,” Fain said. “That was a very, very close election.”Fain emphasized the importance of the UAW's first contract with VW in Chattanooga, saying, “We won in a place where no one said we could win. Now, the argument is, ‘We're not winning fast enough,' when initially it was, ‘We can't win.'”Dodge is moving up the launch date of its gas-powered Charger Sixpack to early summer 2025, five months ahead of schedule, in response to strong demand for traditional internal combustion muscle cars.The decision was influenced by anticipated regulatory shifts under President-Elect Donald Trump, potentially easing EV mandates.Originally planned for late 2025, the ICE Charger Sixpack is now set to arrive ahead of Dodge's all-electric Charger Daytona.The Charger Sixpack will feature a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged straight-six Hurricane engine, with up to 550 horsepower in the high-output variant.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

A Washington man has admitted to killing his ex-girlfriend and her 7-year-old daughter just days after being released on bond for domestic violence charges. Kirkland Warren, 28, pleaded guilty to the murders of Meshay Melendez, 27, and her daughter, Layla Stewart after their bodies were found dumped down an embankment in rural Washougal, according to court records. Warren, who was free on bond at the time, had previously been ordered to have no contact with Melendez. He had also entered an Alford plea to first-degree child molestation related to a sexual assault on Layla Stewart. An Alford plea allows the defendant to maintain innocence while accepting punishment. The investigation began on March 18, 2023, after Vancouver police responded to a welfare check at the Springfield Meadows apartments. Family members had not heard from Melendez or Layla for several days, and their dog was found alone in the apartment, barking. Investigators discovered that on March 11, Melendez, Layla, and Warren had stayed at an acquaintance's home. Layla stayed behind while Melendez and Warren went out. When Warren returned around 8 a.m., the acquaintance noticed Melendez unconscious in the passenger seat of his vehicle. Warren then went inside, retrieved Layla, and drove off with her. On March 19, Melendez's mother found her daughter's 2000 Chrysler 200, leading to Warren's arrest. He was charged with tampering with a witness, violating domestic violence orders, assault, drive-by shooting, and unlawful possession of a firearm. A search of the Dodge Charger, the vehicle Melendez and Layla were last seen leaving in with Warren, uncovered blood evidence in both the front and back seats, .22 caliber shell casings, children's clothing matching what Layla was believed to be wearing on March 12, and a purse containing Melendez's ID, according to police. On March 22, a passerby reported seeing what seemed to be two “life-sized mannequins” off a roadway down an embankment in thick brush in Washougal. Deputies responded and found the victims, who had been shot in the head. Court documents revealed that Layla was found naked from the waist down, and DNA swabs matched Warren's DNA. In court documents, prosecutors detailed Warren's attempts to cover his tracks. He reportedly texted a friend about getting rid of a gun and searched online for ways to clean blood from a car and “how to beat murder.” Investigators also revealed that Warren had transferred $4,200 from Melendez's account to his phone and discussed disposing of her car. At the time of the murders, Warren was out on bond for a 2017 first-degree murder charge in Arkansas, where a man was also shot in the head and left in a ditch. He had also been arrested in December 2022 for assaulting Melendez and firing into her apartment but was released four days before her and Layla's disappearance. Warren now faces a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole when he is sentenced on October 8. His sentence in Washington will run concurrently with his Arkansas murder charge. In a statement, YWCA Clark County CEO Brittini Lasseigne honored Melendez and Layla, expressing frustration over the system's failure to prevent the tragedy. "Deadly violence is not happening to others, it is happening to us," Lasseigne wrote. "We must use our collective voices to make lasting change." Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

A Washington man has admitted to killing his ex-girlfriend and her 7-year-old daughter just days after being released on bond for domestic violence charges. Kirkland Warren, 28, pleaded guilty to the murders of Meshay Melendez, 27, and her daughter, Layla Stewart after their bodies were found dumped down an embankment in rural Washougal, according to court records. Warren, who was free on bond at the time, had previously been ordered to have no contact with Melendez. He had also entered an Alford plea to first-degree child molestation related to a sexual assault on Layla Stewart. An Alford plea allows the defendant to maintain innocence while accepting punishment. The investigation began on March 18, 2023, after Vancouver police responded to a welfare check at the Springfield Meadows apartments. Family members had not heard from Melendez or Layla for several days, and their dog was found alone in the apartment, barking.

A man tried to save a big tree from splitting apart by wrapping it in duct tape...a passenger refused to stop vaping on a flight...and the driver of a Dodge Charger punched a man in the face after the guy complimented the car!

Shoot us a Text.It's a new week in the retail auto industry, and that means its time to love some people more than cars. Today we're discussing a survey that suggests dealers are not excited about selling EVs, the new Dodge Charger exhaust sound system, and how ChargePoint is combining all the charging connectors into one.Steve Greenfield made a post about the new Dodge Charger's fake exhaust sounds and it sparked quite the debate. Dodge's new electric Charger Daytona is all about maintaining the classic muscle car vibes that its customers love. Even with an electric engine, Dodge wants to ensure the car sounds like it has a roaring V8 under the hood, and they've introduced the Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust system to make it happen.Steve Greenfield's post: “I literally don't know how to feel about this. Part of me wants to be really excited, and part of me wants to be repugnated. But maybe that's the goal?”The system is designed to mimic the sound of a traditional V8 engine, even though the car is fully electric.It uses a combination of high-tech transducers, passive radiators, and amplifiers to create its signature sound.The sound adjusts with driving conditions, getting louder with throttle input and varying based on the car's driving mode.As EV sales show inconsistency across brands, a new study reveals that dealer enthusiasm may be a key factor. A survey of 250 dealership leaders across the U.S. shows a surprising lack of excitement among sales teams, which may be influencing EV adoption rates.49% of surveyed dealers say their sales teams are "not excited at all" about selling EVs with enthusiasm highest in the Pacific region, including California, but even there, few are "very excited."Dealers in rural areas and colder climates cite charging infrastructure and winter range issues as major concerns.Areas with better EV training show higher enthusiasm, suggesting that education could boost sales interest.The study highlights the industry's struggle to adapt its traditional sales models to the demands of the EV market.ChargePoint is tackling one of the biggest headaches for EV drivers with its new Omni Port, an innovative solution that combines multiple connector types into one EV charging unit, making charging simpler and more accessible to all makes and models.Omni Port combines common connector types, eliminating the need for adapters with support for current and future models, including 800-volt systems for faster charging.Drivers can select the correct connector via the ChargePoHosts: 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

Today is the day Ashley and Liz take the deep dive. You know us, we're usually Sparknotes gals… but in order to paint the entire Satanic Panic picture we have to take you back to where it all began…so we did the research! What exactly started our parent's obsession with the occult, ultimately resulting in them banning us from reading Harry Potter? Was it Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, and the Zodiac Killer? Or could it have been razor blades in Halloween candy, ouija boards and the Tylenol murders? What we discovered is that it was all of the above with a twist of Satanic Rituals, modern day witch trials, and fundamentalist Christian churches pushing their agendas. The extra fun part? We found out we were living in the EPICENTER of satanic panic in the 80's: Kern County, California!!We even get into the most banned books of the 90's and early 2000's, and why they were requested to be banned. But don't worry, it's not all fire and brimstone. We've got a faves and fails involving a bright red Dodge Charger and the new Twisters movie! And a smash or pass with a charismatic villain and some Targaryens.Don't be shy, subscribe!

The so-called "Belltown Hellcat" driver accused of racing his Dodge Charger through city streets and waking people up with his loud exhaust was ordered to pay more than $83,000 in fines during an appearance in Seattle Municipal Court on Tuesday. Court filings by the city attorney allege Miles Hudson, 20, was supposed to submit proof that the car's exhaust system has been fixed, but prosecutors said he has failed to comply with the order. Hudson is subject to fines of $1,300 every day his car is not fixed, according to court records. Hudson was served with the court documents on May 31, and according to the city prosecutor, failed to adequately respond. The city requested a default judgment, asking the judge to declare a verdict without holding a trial. During Tuesday's hearing, Seattle Municipal Court Judge Faye Chess sided with the city and ordered Hudson to pay the fines, which now total more than $83,000. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darien-dunstan3/message

JW recalls a Dodge Charger his father owned and the stories behind the man and the car.

A lot of completely normal Americans believe Trump should have gone free, and he probably will because of his popularity. Which, believe it or not, brings me to the case of Seattle’s own Belltown Hellcat. He’s the guy who goes tearing through Downtown Seattle at night in his unmuffled souped-up Dodge Charger at 107 miles an hour.

Mercedes Vega is seen on video at 9:15 p.m. leaving her apartment complex in Tempe, Arizona. In the video Vega is seen walking with her face looking down as if she was on Facetime. Mercedes Vegas is texting multiple people on the night of April 16. And looking at those messages as a whole, she is either going to meet friends for Sushi, meet other friends at "Dave&Busters,"  or, as she indicates in another text, go to work. In one of her text messages Mercedes Vega says, "I just feel weird, like maybe I shouldn't go anywhere."  In the early morning hours of April 17, the Harquahala Fire Department responds to a report of a burning car on the “north hand shoulder” of the I-10 highway, west of Tonopah, Arizona. Firefighters find a 2018 Chevrolet Malibu on fire. Once the fire is put out, a deceased human body is found in the rear passenger seat.  At 1:15 a.m.  Maricopa County Sheriff's deputies are called to a scene to assist the Arizona Department of Public Safety on a death investigation.  Investigators talk to the man who called law enforcement about the car on fire. Robert Miller tells officials he saw a person walking outside the vehicle.   Using fingerprints, investigators can identify the woman found inside the burning Malibu as 22-year-old Mercedes Vega. The 2018 Chevrolet Malibu in which her body was found, does not belong to Vega. The car has a Salvage Title vehicle registered to State Farm Insurance and the burning car is 60 miles from Vega's Tempe, Arizona apartment. Mercedes' 2019, White, Dodge Charger is found illegally parked near First Street and Farmer Avenue, 1.5 miles south of where she lives. According to her mother, the car is parked while running with the keys in the ignition so it would be stolen or towed.  The MCSO has video surveillance of Vega's Charger from the time it is left parked on the road until the time police recover it. Vega didn't park it where it was found.  Maricopa County Medical Examiner's report states the cause of death was “conflagration, blunt force and ballistic injuries," and the Manner of Death is Homicide.  The death report also states she has blunt force trauma and gunshot injuries that contributed to her death, and an odor of bleach within the larynx.  The report notes the presence of gloves and bleach found in front of the car and lighter fluid in the backseat.  JOINING NANCY TODAY:  Tom and Erika Pillsbury - Mercedes Vega's parents,  FB: Justice for Mercedes Marianna Vega  Sarah Ford – Legal Director of South Carolina Victim Assistance Network, Former Prosecutor (focusing on crimes against women and children) & Host of “Stepping Toward Justice” podcast; X: @Sarahafordfordesq Robin Dreeke – Behavior Expert & Retired FBI Special Agent / Chief of the FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program; Author: “Sizing People Up: A Veteran FBI Agents Manual for Behavior Prediction;” X: @rdreekeke Dr. Michelle DuPre – Former Forensic Pathologist, Medical Examiner and Detective: Lexington County Sheriff's Department, Author: “Homicide Investigation Field Guide” & “Investigating Child Abuse Field Guide;” Forensic Consultant Bianca Buono – Reporter, 12 News (Phoenix, AZ), X: @BiancaBuono See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is our full breakdown of every classic Dominic Toretto driven '68-'70 Charger from the Fast and Furious movie franchise, from the beginning in 2001 to current day (April 2024 as of this recording). As you know, the series that started in 2001 with a bunch of VCR thief stealing family members has become a 20+ year action franchise. Dominic Toretto (as portrayed by Vin Diesel) has been the lead character nearly everyone one of them, and Dom has a thing for MOPARS. Beyond that though, he has a SERIOUS thing for '68-'70 Chargers (with the '70 being the primary). We don't claim to be as solid with the F&F franchise as we are the Dukes of Hazzard, but we did our best. At worst we spend an absolutely ridiculous amount of time discussing ridiculous franchise doing ridiculous things with flying Dodge Charger. Basically, it was perfect for us.
