Robbie is back from Japan where he drove the best selling EV in that country, the Nissan Sakura. Nicole is back to discuss the Lexus GX, and Nissan Frontier and Armada Pro-4X models. Sam took the Ram 1500 RHO to Ikea and found it challenging to park.

In the news, GMC is bringing lower priced versions of the Sierra EV for the 2026 model year and Electrify America is piloting new Alpitronic chargers with J3400 cables. Robbie discusses some of what he saw in Japan (more to come in the near future) and we all ponder if VW's Cupra brand will actually make it to America. New tariffs could hammer Stellantis profits by 75% and kill affordable new cars entirely. The cheapest 2-door Ford Bronco with a V6 now costs $78,000 and we learn a bit of history about VW and the Kong your dog likes to chew on.
