Promising the perfect blend of style and practicality, the Carnival breaks free from the "minivan" stereotype, offering a luxurious yet family-friendly experience with its upgraded leather seating, advanced communication features, and a smart power liftgate. We compare it to rivals like the Toyota Sienna Hybrid and Honda Odyssey Hybrid, giving you a comprehensive guide to making an informed choice for your family's needs.Thinking about hydrogen power?   Jeff takes a look ...  Hydrogen-powered cars use fuel cells to generate electricity, emitting only water vapor. They offer quick refueling, long ranges, and zero emissions. Challenges include limited refueling infrastructure and hydrogen production costs. Automakers are investing in hydrogen technology, especially for heavy-duty vehicles, as a sustainable alternative to traditional gasoline and diesel cars. Switching gears, we get behind the wheel of the 2025 GMC Sierra EV, a trailblazer in the electric truck landscape. With its robust 760 horsepower and impressive towing capacity, this vehicle is poised to redefine your expectations of power and innovation. Our firsthand experience highlights the Sierra's unmatched performance, though we couldn't help but wish for an air ride option. We stack it up against formidable competitors such as the Ford F-150 Lightning and Rivian R1T, providing you with insights into its standout features and why it might just be the electric truck you've been waiting for.

Arizona-based electric vehicle manufacturer Nikola, once heralded as a game-changer in the long-haul trucking industry, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The company's downfall stems from multiple issues, including the conviction of its founder, Trevor Milton, for fraud, vehicle safety concerns, and persistent financial losses. The broader electric vehicle (EV) market faces increasing difficulties, with reduced government subsidies and declining consumer interest. Arizona, which had bet big on EV manufacturing, has seen multiple companies shutter operations, exposing the fragility of an industry propped up by government incentives rather than sustainable market demand. With electric semi-trucks struggling to prove viability in long-distance hauling, Nikola's bankruptcy signals a potential reckoning for the EV sector, especially as the Biden administration's push for widespread EV adoption runs into economic and technological roadblocks. This collapse is yet another example of failed green energy experiments that rely too heavily on taxpayer-funded support rather than real-world viability.

Our guest on this week's episode is Matt Wicks, senior director of robotics automation at Zebra Technologies. Robotics are rapidly gaining acceptance in distribution operations. They can work 24/7 with a high degree of uptime and accuracy. Our guest shares in which areas of warehouse operations robotics are proving to be the most useful, trends that are leading to their adoption, and what might be hindering robotic deployments in some cases.During this first month of the new administration in Washington, we have seen a shift away from support of electric vehicles, including electric trucks that serve our supply chain operations. As a result, California has responded with adjustments to its electric vehicle mandates. In this segment, we discuss other trends and hindrances towards electric vehicle adoption, as well as an innovative technology that is being piloted for long-haul trucks in Europe.Supply chains continue to deal with a growing volume of returns following holiday peak, and 2024 was no exception. Recent survey data from technology company Akeneo showed that 65% of shoppers made holiday returns this year, with most reporting that their online experience played a large role in their reason for doing so. We look at how the returns season went this year and what practices retailers can implement to decrease the number of product returns.Supply Chain Xchange  also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals. A series of ten episodes is now available on the "State of Logistics." The episodes provide in-depth looks into the current states of key transportation modes, such as trucking, rail, air, and ocean.
