And you thought I wasn't coming back with Episode 21... foolish child! Late but always right on time, in this episode I quickly cover the latest new SUV in the ever-growing sea of SUVs, with the Lexus GX and the new TX. Both are excellent additions to the segment and for sure volume sellers for Lexus and its customers. Before I get to that, Toyota broke the news that their batteries are gearing up as game changers for the EV market. Something very much needed to quell the fears of range anxiety. Alongside that Toyota has a manual-shifting EV? VW proves there is no limit to how much we will spend on a limited edition... hatchback, with the Golf R 333 and BMW killing the manual officially.

In this episode we talk to Michael Tripp, Vice President of Vehicle Marketing & Communications at Toyota North America, about the first-ever 2023 Toyota GR Corolla, which was developed by the TOYOTA GAZOO Racing team, with 300 hp, 273 lb.-ft. of torque from a 1.6L, 3-cylinder direct/port injected turbo engine and a manual transmission only!  

During this episode, we discuss the past, present and future of the manual transmission that used to be found a variety of passenger cars, trucks and SUVs; we take a look at why Miami has become "ground zero" for urban air mobility; and one minus one equals two - the Ford Motor Company separates its EV business from its traditional internal combustion business.  Guess which one has a bright future? 

Ken and Chase dig into the history of the manual transmission, the current market offerings, and what the future looks for the "stick shift." 

We're not picking wiper blades, we're talking about the transmission options for track cars.

We had to settle the debate once and for all. Manual Transmission vs. Automatic Transmission. For people building and racing their project cars, the choice of transmission is paramount. Mike has his way, Larry has his way, but this week we identify the strengths, weaknesses and opinions to finally pick a winner on this topic.
