In this powerful episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Hall of Fame speaker, podcast host, and author Bill Cates to uncover how your mindset can either rob you of success or unlock lasting wealth. Bill takes us behind the scenes of his new book, The Hidden Heist, a parable filled with suspense, humor, and unforgettable lessons about money. Together, Gerald and Bill explore why beliefs are the foundation of every decision you make, how to maintain composure and clarity when life gets stressful, and why mastering your inner dialogue is the secret to real productivity. You'll also learn how compounding interest can change your future, why many people sabotage their own financial potential, and how finding the right financial advisor can protect and grow your wealth. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still falling short, this episode will challenge you to rethink your approach, rewrite your limiting stories, and start building a life of abundance and purpose.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1147: Today we're covering a first-of-its-kind Stellantis store acquisition backed by Ellenae Fairhurst's trust, a new AI tool that negotiates car deals for shoppers, and the latest U.S.-China framework over TikTokThe late Ellenae Fairhurst's legacy lives on as a Stellantis store in Virginia has new owners, in a new approach to dealership ownership.Fairhurst Automotive, backed by the Ellenae Fairhurst Entrepreneurial Trust, acquired and rebranded the South Richmond CDJR store.Ellenae Fairhurst was the first Black woman to own Infiniti and Lexus stores in the US and her trust, formed in 2024, funds and mentors first-time Black dealers with a path to majority ownership and wealth creation.New co-owners Ken Banks and Chris Justice navigated regulatory hurdles and surprise costs, including a $50,000 business license and $40,000 in IT upgrades.Adviser Stuart McCallum and the team at Biltmore Automotive guided the operators through everything from DMS installation to state licensing.“They took two people who knew nothing about ownership… and just walked us through it,” said co-owner Chris Justice.Many customers dread negotiating a car price, so CarEdge thinks AI should do it for you. The startup's new “AI Negotiator” lets customers pay $40 to have an AI agent haggle with dealers on their behalf.CarEdge launched its AI Negotiator app in July; over 2,000 customers have already paid to try it.Users set a target price, and the AI contacts dealers directly via email and text — without revealing it's not a human.The system tracks 150+ data points per interaction, building a database of doc fees and add-ons nationwide.Founder Zach Shefska says dealers and OEMs are already taking notice, calling CarEdge “the tip of the spear.”“There's still going to be people that walk up to the dealership [to negotiate], but there's a percentage of sales that can happen without the incumbent cost infrastructure, and everyone can win. That's what I'm passionate about,” Shefska said.The U.S. and China have struck a framework deal over TikTok's ownership, potentially shifting control from ByteDance to a U.S. company.Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed the framework during trade talks in Madrid; Trump and Xi are expected to discuss final details Friday.The deal addresses U.S. demands for local control of user data and oversight of TikTok's proprietary algorithm.China insists it won't compromise on principles or allow “politicization” of technology and trade.Broader issues remain unresolved, including fentanyl chemical exports, sanctions on Chinese firms, and new U.S. export controls.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

On Today's show: Did Dan Campbell run it up on Ben Johnson?  A Detroit Reporter asked him. Michelle is having lunch with friends and they both look MUCH better than her, we discuss. The price of beef is skyrocketing, why? Michelle really believes she has to put "premium gas" in her Lexus. Gregg covered the Michigan game with his son who is a sports writer for Central Michigan University If you enjoy the show please consider subscribing to our youtube channel, our podcast and newsletter.

The show opens with a brief, and completely off-topic, conversation about whether or not Tom smells spicy. Listen in for the verdict. Tom shared brief impressions of the 2025 Lexus RX 500h F Sport Performance AWD, noting that the premium midsize crossover was over-named by a few syllables. That said, Tom is very impressed with the vehicles. The hosts went on the talk about Ram's decision to kill—before introduction—the Ram REV electric pickup truck. The story gets a little complicated. Listen in for details. Among other news, Tom shared information regarding Chinese carmakers turning to Magna International, and its Steyr manufacturing facility in Austria, for regional production. Chinese EV builders are looking to dodge European tariffs by assembling cars on the continent. Still in the first segment, Jill reviews the 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid, noting that the maker's compact car lineup is now mostly hybrid powered. In the second segment, Jill and Tom welcome Don Sikora of Collectible Automobile to the show. Don shared highlights of the October 2025 issue of the classic-car magazine, which is on newsstands now. A feature story about the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, written by podcast regular Sam Fiorani, was discussed at length. See our Facebook page for information regarding subscribing to the magazine. In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom's “Partridge or President” quiz, in which she must determine if a given person was a cast member of “The Partridge Family,” or a former Ford CEO.

In this week's episode of America on the Road, host Jack Nerad takes a close look at the 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Limited and walks away thoroughly impressed. This top-tier Elantra hybrid doesn't try to reinvent the compact sedan, but it delivers a balanced blend of premium features, smooth handling, and outstanding efficiency. With a 50 MPG combined rating, dual 10.25-inch digital screens, ventilated front seats, and Hyundai's full suite of advanced safety tech, all for just over $30,000, the stunning hybrid punches well above its class. The dual-clutch transmission offers a more engaging drive than typical hybrids, and the sharp styling gives it a confident, upscale look. It begs the question: Is this the best-value hybrid sedan you can buy? Also in this episode, co-host Chris Teague takes the 2026 Nissan Rogue Platinum out for a week-long spin to see what the top-trim version of the popular compact SUV brings to the asphalt. The answer is: quite a lot. From quilted leather seats and a panoramic moonroof to an intuitive Google-powered infotainment system and advanced ProPILOT Assist 2.1 semi-autonomous tech, this SUV makes a case for itself as a true luxury-lite option. Its overachieving 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder puts out 201 horsepower, while delivering laudable fuel economy. Comfort and convenience are clearly the priorities, with wireless smartphone integration, a premium Bose sound system, and clever cargo solutions among its bag of tricks. But is the Rogue Platinum a high-end bargain or just an over-equipped, over-priced niche vehicle? We'll share our thoughts. This week's special guest is car-builder, DIY expert, and Quaker State influencer Anatalia Villaranda. Known for her energetic presence and hands-on knowledge, Villaranda talks about how she got into cars, her favorite builds, and what it takes to grow a garage-based brand in today's automotive landscape. Whether you're into turning wrenches or just watching builds online, her passion and insights bring a fresh voice to the enthusiast community. Auto News This Week In the news, Tesla's EV market share is slipping, dropping to just 38% in August, its lowest since 2017. With rivals like Hyundai, Toyota, and Volkswagen gaining ground in the EV space through aggressive pricing and fresher lineups, Tesla's once-untouchable lead looks anything but secure. It's a wake-up call for a company that's been slow to refresh its core models while its CEO's attention has drifted elsewhere. Things aren't especially rosy at Ford either. The giant automaker is recalling over 1.5 million vehicles due to defective rear-view cameras that can display blank or distorted images. Affected models span from Mustangs to F-Series trucks, and some units even had cameras supplied by Magna that are now part of a separate, broader recall. It's the latest in a long string of issues that have made Ford the recall leader this year. Mercedes-Benz has completed an historic 749-mile drive from Germany to Sweden using solid-state battery tech. Using lithium-metal cells developed with Factorial Energy, the test highlights how this next-gen battery format could radically improve EV range, performance, and durability. The brand says it aims to bring this breakthrough to production by decade's end. Lexus has unveiled the 2026 IS 350, giving its compact sports sedan a sharper new design, more tech, and upgraded materials. With F Sport trims, forged bamboo accents, and an available 17-speaker Mark Levinson sound system, Lexus is hoping to keep performance-sedan lovers from switching brands. A 311-horsepower V6 and retuned suspension aim to keep things fun behind the wheel. But where's the V8, Chris and Jack ask. In additional Lexus news, Toyota will consolidate Lexus production in Indiana, shifting ES sedan production out of Kentucky in response to tariffs and changing market demands. Some high-end models will return to Japanese factories,

Hubo un tiempo en que las marcas presumían de que sus motores en vez de cadena de distribución llevaban correas… y ahora ocurre justo lo contrario… ¿K'a pasao? Os lo vamos a contar y, como no, saldrá a relucir el “tristemente” famoso motor “Pure Tech” de Stellantis. Durante décadas, la correa de distribución ha sido un componente vital y, en ocasiones, una pesadilla recurrente para los conductores. Y ahora la industria del automóvil ha virado bruscamente hacia el pasado, recuperando una tecnología que se creía obsoleta: La cadena de distribución. ¿Por qué está volviendo la cadena de distribución? Para llevar el movimiento desde el cigüeñal a él o los árboles de levas hacen falta o bien dos poleas y una correa o bien dos piñones y una cadena… y aquí comienzan las diferencias. Desde hace unas pocas décadas, la correa de distribución fue la solución preferida por la mayoría de los fabricantes. ¿Por qué? Pues por tres razones principales: Es silenciosa: Al ser de un material elástico, como caucho reforzado con fibras, su funcionamiento es casi inaudible. Es barata: Fabricar una correa de distribución es mucho más económico que una cadena de metal con todos sus componentes asociados. Esto reduce los costes de producción del vehículo. Es ligera: El menor peso de la correa contribuye a reducir la masa del motor, lo que, en teoría, mejora la eficiencia. Una cadena de distribución como sabes es una cadena metálica, similar a la de una bicicleta, pero mucho más robusta y compleja que gira sobre unos piñones dentados y se mantiene tensa gracias a un sistema de tensores hidráulicos o mecánicos. Sus ventajas y la razón de su resurgimiento son estas: Es extremadamente duradera: A diferencia de la correa, la cadena no tiene un periodo de sustitución programado. Está diseñada para durar prácticamente la vida útil del motor, lo que significa un ahorro notable en costes de mantenimiento. Es más fiable: Al ser de metal, es mucho menos propensa a romperse que una correa de goma, lo que reduce drásticamente el riesgo de una avería catastrófica. Y Avisa: Es difícil, casi imposible, que en uso normal una cadena se rompe. Pero si comienza a deteriorarse, a alargarse, los tensores no funcionan o lo que sea, comienza a sonar y, antes de que se produzca el desastre, avisa… una ventaja a considerar. Entonces, si es tan buena, ¿por qué no todos los motores la usan? Porque la cadena tiene sus propias desventajas, que los fabricantes han tenido que mitigar: Es más ruidosa: Aunque los motores modernos están mejor insonorizados y estos sistemas han mejorado mucho, la cadena de metal genera más ruidos Requiere lubricación: La cadena y sus componentes necesitan estar siempre bien lubricados. Un aceite de mala calidad o un bajo nivel de aceite puede provocar fallo y si no se corrige a tiempo, una avería. Si te dicen que un coche tiene cadena de distribución “de por vida”, se sobre entiende que es así si usas el aceite correcto y lo cambias cuando toca. Y ahora llegamos a un caso que ha causado un verdadero terremoto entre los consumidores: Los motores PureTech de Stellantis, sobre todo el 1.2, presente en vehículos de Peugeot, Citroën, Opel, entre otros. Este motor pretendía tener lo mejor de dos mundos, gracias a su “correa” húmeda que iba lubricada. Se uso una correa de caucho que, en lugar de ir en seco por fuera del motor, va sumergida en el aceite. Insisto, la idea era combinar el silencio y ligereza de la correa y, gracias a lubricación, con las ventajas de un sistema de cadena. El diseño ha resultado ser un desastre. La correa, sumergida en el aceite, se degrada y sus partículas terminan contaminando el lubricante y obstruyendo la bomba de aceite. Conclusión. Soy de la opinión que la cadena ha vuelto para quedarse, al menos en motores con ciertas pretensiones de duración y-o potencia. Pero quiero sacar otra lección de este video: La durabilidad de un motor depende, en gran medida, del mantenimiento en especial del cambio de aceite. Entre estos dos sistemas, sin duda, me quedo con la cadena de distribución… a lo mejor es que soy un clásico, pero para “tirar” de un árbol de levas o más, me inspira más confianza el metal que la goma… ¿Y a vosotros? Coche del día. He elegido un coche que es un ejemplo perfecto de la fiabilidad que una buena cadena de distribución puede ofrecer: el Lexus IS 250 de segunda generación. Su motor V6 de 2.5 litros, conocido internamente como 4GR-FSE, está equipado con una cadena de distribución de doble fila. O sea, como si fuesen dos cadenas.

We kick off this episode with an in-depth review of the 2025 Lexus RX 350 F Sport, a luxury midsize SUV that blends sporty design elements with Lexus' signature comfort. Host Jack Nerad crossed the Red River to test the RX on a road trip from Dallas to Broken Bow, Oklahoma, and came away impressed. The F Sport trim brings sharper exterior styling, a 2.4-liter turbocharged engine, and adaptive variable suspension. It doesn't quite deliver a full-blown performance experience, but it does allow you to keep your Man Card. Inside, the RX maintains Lexus' high standards for quietness and comfort, with a 14-inch touchscreen, premium materials, and comprehensive safety tech. For those who want a slightly sportier Lexus without sacrificing daily drivability, Jack says the F Sport trim offers just enough edge. We'll have a full report. 2025 Nissan Frontier: Smarter Tech, Sharper Looks, Same Rugged Attitude Co-host Chris Teague reviews the refreshed 2025 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X, a midsize pickup that doubles down on its rugged personality with updated styling, enhanced utility, and smarter tech. New exterior elements like a revised grille, front fascia, and Afterburn Orange paint make the PRO-4X stand out from the crowd. Under the hood, the 3.8-liter V6 delivers 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque. It's paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, and the Pro-4X trim also offers Bilstein shocks, all-terrain tires, red tow hooks, and an improved Intelligent Around View Monitor that now functions up to 12 mph in off-road mode. With a boosted maximum tow rating of 7,150 pounds and a larger available 12.3-inch infotainment screen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, the 2025 Frontier blends brains and brawn. Should it be your go-to in the segment? Chris and Jack will offer their opinion. 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro: A Tougher, Smarter Redesign Our road test extravaganza continues with a review of the 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro, the first full redesign of this iconic SUV in over a decade. Built for serious off-roaders, the TRD Pro now features a 2.4-liter hybrid powertrain producing 326 horsepower and a massive 465 lb-ft of torque. The upgrade improves fuel economy by over 20%, while also enhancing trail performance and towing capability. The cabin gets a much-needed tech overhaul, with a 14-inch touchscreen, 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and improved ergonomics. Although pricey at over $73,000, the 4Runner TRD Pro delivers on Toyota's reputation for durability and adds new levels of refinement to its legendary capability. But is $73K just too much? 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander: Big Comfort Meets Big Power If the 4Runner TRD Pro is too rich for your wallet, you might prioritize family transport with the 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander Platinum, the top-tier version of Toyota's three-row SUV. In Hybrid MAX form, it delivers a punchy 362 horsepower from a turbocharged hybrid system while still offering an EPA-estimated 27 mpg combined. Premium features include Ultrasuede seats, a panoramic moonroof, and a full suite of technology, including a 12.3-inch touchscreen, digital rearview mirror, and seven USB-C ports. With second-row captain's chairs and AWD versatility, the Grand Highlander aims to be both a luxury family hauler and a road-trip-ready powerhouse.

Se dice siempre… porque es verdad: El coche es la segunda inversión más importante de una familia. O los coches, en plural, porque a veces es necesario más de uno. Así que te interesa saber cuánto se va a devaluar tu coche… porque hay coches que se llegan a devaluar en solo 5 años… ¡hasta el 72 por ciento! Te voy a dar un dato de referencia de la empresa iSeeCars una plataforma norteamericana a través de la cual se venden cada año, millones de vehículos. Según el estudio correspondiente a 2024, en 5 años la media de devaluación de un vehículo se sitúa en torno al 45 por ciento. Este dato, aunque haga referencia al mercado norteamericano, te sirve como “fiel de la balanza”. Cuanto más desarrollado es un mercado más se devalúan los coches, mientras que mercados menos desarrollados los usados mantienen más el valor, sencillamente, porque son más baratos y se venden más. Te damos unos consejitos: - Haz un buen seguro. ¿Qué tiene que ver el seguro con la devaluación de un coche? Mucho más de lo que crees. Con un buen seguro a todo riesgo o con franquicia razonable, cuando vayas a vender el coche, si tienes algunos “toquecitos” lo pintas y ya está… Además las malas reparaciones mal hechas hacen perder valor a tu coche. - Mantenimiento: Al día y demostrable. Además de estar bien mantenido, debe parecerlo. - Uso y no abuso: Haz un uso adecuado del coche, sin maltratarlo en ningún sentido. Estos son algunos de los tipos de coche que más se devalúan. - Los coches de lujo. Son caros nuevos o muy nuevos, pero luego pierden valor muy rápido. - Deportivos sin “pedigrí”. El ejemplo más claro son los coupés de marcas generalistas, que pierden mucho valor rápidamente. - Coches de alta gama de marcas generalistas. Más de lo mismo, porque quien quiere un coche premium lo quiere de una marca premium. - Modelos eléctricos. En estos casos el comprador de un usado está temeroso porque si tiene que cambiar la batería le sale, como suele decirse, “más caro el collar que el galgo”. - Coches con tecnologías obsoletas. O que lo parecen. En este grupo podrían entrar los diésel, demonizados sin razón y que mucha gente no quiere como usado por temor a que no le dejen usarlo… - Modelos de elevada producción. Al fin y al cabo estamos en un mercado donde los precios los marcan la oferta y la demanda. - Marcas poco conocidas o con mala imagen. Prueba a vender un Jaguar o un Peugeot con motor “Pure-Tech” … o a vender un coche chino, que te ha salido muy barato, pero que casi nadie quiere como usado, porque hay un gran desconocimiento de cómo les afecta el tiempo y los kilómetros… Y ahora, llega el momento de señalar con el dedo cuáles son las ranking está elaborado por iSeeCars con datos de 2024 y nos da una idea muy precisa de qué coches son una mala inversión. Me voy a centrar en los 10 peores, los que más se devalúan en los 5 primeros años. 10º. Cadillac Escalade ESV. 62,9 por ciento. Lo reúne todo: El caro de comprar, costoso de mantener, gasta mucho y además han dado muchos problemas. 9º. Tesla Model X. 63,4 por ciento. Fruto de los reiterados problemas de calidad de este modelo. 8º. Maserati Levante. 63,7 por ciento. Quiero hacer un video sobre Maserati, porque la marca es muy conocida, pero sus coches no. Y eso le perjudica en este ranking. 7º. Nissan Leaf. 64,1 por ciento. Si tienes que cambiar la batería, puedes gastarte entre 5.000 y casi 10.000 €. Eso asusta al comprador de un usado. 6º. BMW Serie 5. 64,7 por ciento. Me sorprende ver este coche en esta posición, pero a lo mejor los precios que se pagan en los concesionarios de la marca tienen algo que ver. 5º. Maserati Ghibli. 64,7 por ciento. Coche minoritario, incluso raro, y de una marca que no inspira mucha confianza. 4º. Infiniti QX80. 65,0 por ciento. Estos modelos tuvieron algunos problemas con el cambio y electrónicos, pero, sobre todo, no es una marca con prestigio dentro del mundo “Premium”. 3º. Tesla Model S. 65,2 por ciento. Puesto de podio para el Model S confirmando la crisis de fiabilidad de la marca. Causa o efecto. No sé si esto tiene que ver con la caída de ventas, las malas noticias ahuyentas a los compradores, es esta es la causa de la caída de ventas. 2º. BMW Serie 7. 67,1 por ciento. Voy a ser un poco “malo”: Quien compra un coche usado de esta categoría prefiere sin duda el Lexus o un Mercedes. 1º. Jaguar I-PACE. 72,3 por ciento. Un claro vencedor porque lo tiene todo: Es caro, es eléctrico, es problemático y la marca tiene una crisis de prestigio enorme… que no está sabiendo gestionar. Conclusión. Para mí la conclusión es clara y contundente: Es mucho más interesante comprar un coche usado que uno nuevo. Comprar un buen coche usado, con solo entre 1 y 3 años, me parece la mejor compra posible, la compra más inteligente. ¿No opináis lo mismo?

What happens when Lexus takes the family hauler and gives it an F Sport attitude? Is the 2025 Lexus TX350 F Sport Handling just a dressed-up Grand Highlander—or something more? With a turbocharged engine, all-wheel drive, 22-inch wheels, and a third row that actually fits kids, could this be the luxury people mover families have been waiting for? And here's the twist—why does it feel like you're driving an EV, even though it's not? From one-pedal-like deceleration to 360° cameras and towing power, does this SUV blur the line between comfort, tech, and capability? Tune in to hear John and Richard Rush break down whether the TX350 is the perfect balance of luxury, practicality, and performance—or if there's a catch you need to know before you buy.

Vodičák som nechcel, dnes mám Defender. Ale Land Cruiser Tybykemu závidíme všetci, hovorí v rozhovore Tomáš Yxo Dohňanský z kapely Hex.Z otvárania kilometrových úsekov diaľnic cítim smiech a plač, hovorí Tomášom Yxo Dohňanský z Hexu. Nedokončená diaľnica do Košíc je úplná hanba tejto republiky, tvrdí.Ďuro Sabo sa v novej epizóde podcastu venuje aj praktickým radám pre vodičov, vrátane bezpečnosti obuvi za volantom, pričom upozorňuje na rozdiely v legislatíve v rôznych krajinách a potenciálne dôsledky nesprávnej obuvi pri nehode. Dozviete sa aj o inovatívnom prístupe k turizmu na Faerských ostrovoch, kde si turisti môžu prenajať auto s prekvapivou navigáciou k neznámym lokálnym atrakciám, čím sa podporuje objavovanie menej známych miest.A aby sme nezabudli, hexákom gratulujeme k 35 rokom stráveným na cestách za svojimi fanúšikmi!Rozhovor s Yxom z kapely Hex: Máme radi dobré kvalitné autá, no hlavne bezpečnéPočas rozhovoru Yxo šoféroval auto a mal namierené na festival Grape. Prvá otázka tak vyplynula celkom prirodzene:Je to tak, že na koncerty jazdíte každý člen kapely sám? Nie, nie, toto je veľká výnimka, lebo ideme tak individuálne aj kvôli tomu, že s niektorými chalanmi idú ženy, deti a každý ideme svojím autom na Grape, lebo budeme sa aj tak rôzne pohybovať, ale ináč chodíme vždy a v zásade jednou veľkou dodávkou, kde je celá aparatúra a aj s technikmi chalanmi. A druhá dodávka je plná veselých muzikantov.Ako vyzerá taká jazda s Hexom? Počúvate, rozprávate sa alebo ste ticho alebo si čítate alebo čo?Máme výborného šoféra nášho Iľju. Takže my teda môžeme si robiť, čo chceme v tom aute, ale už je to naozaj trošku kľudnejšie. Teraz samozrejme, že sú tam nejaké rozhovory o filmoch, o knihách, o hocičom. Potom kľudne si niekto pozrie film, niekto si vypočuje hudbu, ale hudbu ako takú, že spoločne moc nepočúvame v tom aute. Skôr sa rozprávame alebo sa venujeme každý tomu, čo chce a tak ďalej a tak ďalej. Takže je to taká kombinácia hlavne na tých dlhých tých cestách.Kto je z vašej kapely taký najväčší fanúšik do áut?Vieš čo, my to máme tak, mám pocit s tými autami, že my ich máme naozaj ako také, že dopravné prostriedky. Nepobadal som, že by niekto bol taký ten autíčkár, že by presne vedel, že čo kde ako a tuningy a takéto veci. Ale tak máme radi dobré autá, máme radi kvalitné autá a máme radi hlavne bezpečné autá.Na čom jazdí Hex?Idem od rytmickej sekcie. Tybyke má Toyotu Land Cruiser, takú veľmi starú, ale fantastické auto. Normálne mu ho všetci závidíme. On tam má normálne ešte kazeťák. Potom Sharkan má Volvo 90-kové. Fefe má Lexus, ale neviem aký typ, lebo ja sa v týchto japonských autách nevyznám. Náš Lacko má tuším, že Nissan nejaký. To je náš gitarista. Ja jazdím na Land Rover Defender.To je celkom pekná zbierka. A keď idete teraz spolu, tak to velikánske auto, to je aké? No to technické, myslím, že nejaký najväčší Renault, čo vyrábajú s takým ložným priestorom plus miesta pre päť ľudí a my chodíme Mercedesom Viano alebo Vito. Také také čierne také pekné auto. Také ako sa vozia hollywoodske hviezdy.Super. Dobre, poďme na sekundu ešte k tebe. Ty si spomínaš na akom aute si robil skúšky na vodičák? Spomínam si úplne presne, lebo som mal veľmi prísneho učiteľa a to ti bola taká, že Škoda Felicia, taká taká ešte staré auto, také, ešte tam nebola ani klimatizácia, ani nič. No Škoda Felicia proste.Vypočujte si celý rozhovor.V podcaste sa dozviete sa aj to, aký má Yxo názor na slovenské cesty, akú kritiku adresu slovenským vládam za...

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on @TheEmilyDBaker YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/live/2Mgfd0YcGsY?si=OvopJ5gtEwz0RntC Emily discuss the latest developments in the Karen Read case following her acquittal. Her legal team has filed two significant motions: a motion for the return of her seized property and a motion to release impounded sidebar transcripts. First, we delve into the motion to return property. Karen Read's attorneys are pushing for the return of her 2021 Lexus LX 570 and personal cell phone, which were taken by the Massachusetts State Police. We explore the complexities surrounding the damaged Lexus, which was disassembled as part of the investigation, and how this might impact her car insurance claims. Next, we examine the motion for relief from sidebar impoundment. Karen Read's legal team is seeking the release of transcripts from sidebar conferences held during both pretrial proceedings and the trials. The argument is that "good cause" for keeping these discussions sealed no longer exists now that a verdict has been reached. We highlight the video's commentary on the unnecessary impoundment of pretrial sidebar discussions, especially when no jury was present, distinguishing these from the justified sealing of discussions related to the federal investigation. Join us as we break down these motions and their implications for the ongoing legal saga. STAY IN THE LOOP WITH EMILY D.

In this episode of America on the Road, host Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague discuss the latest automotive news, including new tax breaks for car buyers, challenges faced by important global automakers, and exciting new vehicle releases from GMC and Mercedes-Benz. They also provide in-depth reviews of the 2025 Kia K4 sedan and the 2025 Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance, highlighting their features and performance. In this week's road test segment, host Jack Nerad discovers the 2025 Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance to be a breath of fresh air in today's highly homogenized and shrinking sedan market. With a 472-horsepower naturally aspirated V8 under its hood, this unassumingly styled rear-wheel-drive sedan blends old-school performance with modern tech and refinement. Aggressively tuned for back-road thrills yet wrapped in a sleek, understated four-door package, the IS 500 offers a visceral experience, enhanced by high-end features like heated/ventilated sport seats, a Mark Levinson sound system, and a refined tech suite. And you'll never guess the cars Jack Nerad compares it to. Also in the spotlight this week is Chris Teague's test of the all-new 2025 Kia K4, a compact sedan aiming to shake up the segment with bold styling and surprising tech. Replacing the outgoing and under-rated Forte, the K4 pulls into the lot with a surprisingly upscale interior, available turbocharged power, and Kia's latest infotainment platform. Chris dives into how it drives, how it stacks up against rivals like the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla, and whether Kia has another budget-friendly hit on its hands. This episode's special guest is Anthony Monaco, marketing lead for Ram heavy-duty trucks. Monaco joins the show to discuss exciting and affordable new product updates from Ram, shedding light on where the brand is heading and what consumers can expect from the latest heavy-duty lineup. In the news, a sweeping new federal tax deduction could shake up the auto financing world. Under the “Big, Beautiful Bill” signed by President Trump, qualifying buyers can now deduct up to $10,000 in interest on loans for U.S.-assembled vehicles. The catch? Income caps apply, leases are excluded, and not every car will qualify. The IRS will release a list of eligible models, and VIN documentation will be required. Is it a good idea? We'll have details. Meanwhile, three major global automakers—Stellantis, Porsche, and Jaguar Land Rover—are navigating rocky terrain. Stellantis reported a staggering $2.7 billion loss, tied to new tariffs and slumping sales, while Porsche is slashing costs amid weakening EV demand. JLR, reeling from a 15% sales dip and delayed EV rollouts, is trimming jobs and recalibrating its strategy. Two big product debuts also made headlines. GMC launched the 2026 Acadia Denali Ultimate, pushing deeper into luxury with full-leather interiors, Super Cruise hands-free driving, and a 16-speaker Bose system. At the same time, Mercedes-Benz revealed its next-gen CLA, available first in battery-electric and then hybrid form. The EV variant boasts nearly 500 miles of range and impresively fast charging, while the hybrids promise efficiency and flexibility for mainstream buyers. This episode also highlights the America on the Road Made in America Tour, which showcases vehicles and other products built in the U.S., tying in with new buyer incentives and celebrating American ingenuity and homegrown manufacturing. We close the show with a listener question from Mitchell in Boulder, Colorado, who says, “I want to buy a new car, but I need some help in making the deal. How much should I negotiate off the MSRP on a new car?” Jack and Chris share advice on negotiation strategy, dealer incentives, and the current state of new car pricing.

Jon Summers is the Motoring Historian. He was a company car thrashing technology sales rep that turned into a fairly inept sports bike rider. On his show he gets together with various co-hosts to talk about new and old cars, driving, motorbikes, motor racing, motoring travel. In this episode, Jon shares his experience driving a rental Toyota Camry through Cape Cod, Massachusetts. He reflects on the historical similarities between New England and Old England, the peculiar absence of drive-throughs, and the quirks of the local traffic. He also discusses the performance and features of the Camry, comparing it to other vehicles like its Lexus counterpart and a BMW 440. Throughout the episode, he provides humorous and candid commentary on his motoring adventures, including a less-than-satisfactory breakfast stop at Dunkin' Donuts. ==================== 00:00 Impromptu Recording Setup 01:20 Driving Through New England 02:39 New England's Unique Features 06:55 Rental Camry Review 07:46 Comparing Modern Cars 18:51 BMW 440i Experience 24:48 Conclusion and Sponsorship ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ Copyright Jon Summers, The Motoring Historian.
