  • Is This a Car Podcast?

    In today's episode, we discuss Nick's never-ending search for the perfect car. He loves his Cayman but thinks he could swing an R8 in about a year. What do you guys think about the chasm in price between a gated manual and the auto? Is it worth the price? We also chat about the new Integra Type S, the ID.7, General Motors' unquenchable thirst for bankruptcy, and a class action suit levied against Honda for electric power steering issues in the 2022-2023 Civic.

  • 1946 Willys Jeep Confuses Indiana BMV & Listener Questions

    On today's episode, we discuss the weirdness of the VIN on Josh's 1946 Willys Jeep and just how confused it made the Indiana BMV. We also get into some listener questions, including our choice for a vehicle that gets over 40 mpg and a great discussion on car stereotypes that may or may not influence our willingness to purchase a vehicle.

    Listen all the way to the end if you want to hear us accidentally plan an AVE road trip and discuss Hippos.

  • New Cars in EU Will Be Zero Emission By 2035

    Ted and Josh discuss the EU's vote to require all new cars sold to be zero emission by 2035. The main concern with an EV future is whether or not it's possible and how such a future would affect the lower and middle classes currently priced out of EV ownership and maintenance. Despite our concerns, there are 12 years on the clock, and when it comes to technology....12 years is a longgg time. We also discuss gen Z and their preference for sedans. Yay, gen Z!


    If you have any questions for us to answer, topics you'd like to discuss, or cars you'd be willing to let us review, please reach out at [email protected] or message us on Instagram at ave_automotive.

  • The State of The Manual Transmission in 2023
    Unlike most episodes, we focus mainly on a single topic this week: the manual transmission. First, Josh updates us on his journey into the sky, and then we dive deep into the state of the modern manual. We get into the decline of the most engaging transmission, the manufacturers' role in that decline, the state of the manual today, what cars should still have a manual, and what future we think is in store for those of us who like to row our own gears. Enjoy the discussion and please reach out if you'd like us to chat about any specific topics. You can reach us at [email protected] or message us on Instagram at "ave_automotive".

  • Talking About EVs is Complicated

    This episode was recorded before Ted went to Puerto Rico for vacation. After a week off we are back!


    Today the AVE Trio discusses the complexity of the EV conversation. Why is it so difficult to be openly critical of EVs and autonomous vehicles without someone calling you a Luddite, old-fashioned, or uneducated? We all want to learn more and are genuinely rooting for the technology, but we can't pretend there aren't serious issues. As automotive journalists, we aren't picking on EVs - we treat them like we would any other car or new technology. Ultimately, we just want them to be as good as they can. We also discuss Nick's unending search for what he wants in his garage. We hope you enjoy the discussion!


    If you have any questions for us to answer or topics for us to discuss please reach out via email at [email protected] or on Instagram @ave_automotive.
