In this week's episode - we hit up New Hartford for lunch and experience the best drivers of NY.  Hyundais and Kias are actually super simple to steal apparently.  California starts requiring inspection stations to use palm prints to log in.  Canada institutes a luxury tax on expensive cars, boats, and other vessels.  We're back in Neptune for another week.

In the second half, Adam gives us an update on the RS4 and reminds us about his trip to NJ in a few days.  A discussion of donuts appears.  AJ asks us how traffic has influenced society as we know it.  Then some trivia and some true and false questions.

In the first half of this week's episode - Adam experiences AJ's hell on his way to record this episode.  The RS4 is at A&K Eurowerx to get its air conditioning fixed.  We start watching Veronica Mars at Bruce's request.  Some news, such as student loans getting forgiven, a man gets shot and killed for stopping to help a person on the side of the road, Tesla yokes are peeling, and Australia ponders license changes for fast cars.

In the second half, this past week's Cars and Bids in review in review.  And then AJ brings us the lowdown on oil.  From its history in cars, to refinement, to barrels, to environmental impact.

In this week's episode, we three experience the Big Money Waste firsthand before recording.  Adam goes to Connecticut for a Cars & Coffee put on by Hoffman Audi of New London, the A4 B9 Performance Facebook group, and several other groups.  He took the Allroad and had a blast, both on the drive there and back, and at the event itself.  Here's to making it an annual event!  Our movie this week - The Cable Guy, and we don't mean Larry.  In the news, Dodge is ending production of the Challenger and Charger, John Deere gets the Apple treatment and gets jailbroken, Google is beginning to roll out a new feature to Android Auto, and traffic fatalities are on the rise.  Can we guess why?

In the second half, are we seeing an increase of 2022 model year failures because of the chip shortage?  And then AJ whips out some hand-picked trivia for us to feast on.  The most uncharacteristic of which - he uses a wrong word?

In this week's episode, AJ tries to get to work but gets shut down at the last minute.  Adam gets props from a Porsche owner.  Our movie this week, 1996's cinematic masterpiece Kingpin.  And in the news, a tractor trailer driver that killed 7 motorcyclists gets exonerated - we discuss if justice was served.  Another big thing in the news, Anne Heche's accident and subsequent death.  The proposed EV tax credit?  Turns out none of the EVs on the market today would qualify for it - can you guess why?

In the second half, GPS (magnets) how does it work?  Idk let's ask ICP.  But really, an Australian family found out the hard way that when the GPS tells you to take the dirt road - don't take it.  AJ brings us some trivia in the vein of sentient cars/modes of transportation, but not before cutting off Adam's discussion of this week's Cars and Bids highlights.  And finally, to round out the episode, AJ makes us guess numbers.

In this week's episode - it's fricken hot out.  Adam talks about a car meet he attended out towards Rochester/Victor, NY at the Log Cabin Restaurant.  Shout outs to the crew he went with at the bottom.  Our movie this week, Wet Hot American Summer - appropriate for how we're all feeling in the heat.  A discussion on how traffic circles work, an intrepid Audi A4 owner turns their car into an R8, a 2024 Chevy Corvette hyrbid goes up in flames.

In the second half, we talk about some notable sales on the car auction site Cars and Bids.  Bruce discusses a special Volvo he came across for sale.  Chevy is offering $5,000 to keep their cars an extra year.  Is the Bronco Raptor underpowered?  And finally, AJ brings us car urban legends, some trues and falses, and ways to beat the heat.

In the first half of this week's episode - we journey through America's history with the one and only Nicolas Cage.  Adam's RS4 finally undergoes its Takata airbag recall at Audi Cicero, and he discusses some upcoming car-related events he plans on attending.  Most notably a meet in Connecticut put on by the A4 B9 Facebook group, at Hoffman Audi of New London and, of course, Waterfest 26 in Atco, New Jersey.  In the news, speaking of NJ, their Department of Environmental Protection is cracking down on illegally modified diesels - not necessarily rolling coal, but EGR and DPF deletes.  We discuss.  Jeep is pulling out of China, Tesla will start charging for GPS nav, the average cost of a new car breaks records, and the new Civic Type R gets some power figures.

In the second half, AJ brings us the stats on what cars people of different political stances own.  Some of them will surprise you, most notably how BMWs are considered "near-luxury", much to Adam's glee.  AJ also brings us obscure car parts, and we try to guess what they are and what do.  We round out this week with a solid conversation about Star Trek and a Mothmoon Manbeam prediction for the ages.

In this week's episode, it's fricken hot out!  Before recording this episode, Adam discovered the tail lights on his Allroad were all jacked up.  The car was at the dealership a week ago for a couple recalls, and it looks like they reprogrammed a module back to factory settings - woops.  Our movie this week - Lake Placid.  Honda unveils the new Civic Type R.  A more mild look aesthetically, which can almost guarantee wider acceptance assuming the performance stays the same or better.  AJ brings us the Cadillac Celestiq, a $300,000 luxury EV.  A new bridge in LA gets broken in by some boneheads, the NHTSA OK's manufacturers to sell replicas of cars older than 25 years old, and BMW issues a statement on their subscription model.

In the second half, AJ brings us a melding of two topics - cars and names.  What are certain manufacturer's naming conventions?  What makes have the most interesting names?  We discuss the origin of the word Jeep - is it from the military "GP" or is it from the cartoon Popeye?  How car parts got their name.  And a brief discussion on how car parts differ in name overseas.

In this week's episode, Bruce see's a Fiero and a 3000 GT.  Adam brings the Allroad to the dealer for a recall, only to learn his year old tires are almost bald.  What?  His loaner, a 2022 Audi Q5 get's a brief review.  BMW upsets the car world with the concept of offering car convenience features for a monthly cost.  Heated seats?  Might be $15 per month.  Adam actually defends the idea.  The new Ford F-150 Lightning tries to charge itself.  2022 Toyota Tundras get recalled.

In the second half, we'll keep it short and simple - we try to guess car stereotypes, and then we try to diagnose some stuff.

In this week's episode, we watch one of Tom Hanks' earlier films - Volunteers.  An update on the RS4 (it's finally, truly, completely, done).  The used car market appears to be slowing down - at least according to Doug DeMuro.  He's generally pretty reliable, but we discuss nonetheless.  Cars in Europe may soon come equipped with automatic speed limiting tech.  An Explain Like I'm 5 (ELI5) post from Reddit about why cars are able to drive sometimes three times higher than the highest speed limit.  An Audi A6 Avant with a V10 is up on the auctions sites and Adam loses his mind.

In the second half, AJ poses hypothetical car symptoms and we have to guess what the cause is.  Afterwards, car-related careers, what kind of education they require, and what their salary ranges are.

In this week's episode, AJ nearly gets into an accident.  Adam talks the RS4's Servotronic valve, and gets a new light on the dashboard.  Bruce receives a gift.  Our movie this week - Coherence.  The 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed has concluded, and a new record has been set - the McMurtry Spéirling driven by Max Chilton, made it to the top in 39.08 seconds!  Top Gear is "under fire" for wasting gas/petrol.  Ford's F-150 Lightning is coming with a "no resale" stipulation.  A VW timing belt tensioner gets mistaken for a bomb, if you can believe it.

In the second half, we discuss what manufacturers offer the most number of models.  Is this increasing or decreasing in history?  Is there a reason why?  A speed round of guessing manufacturer parent companies.  And a bunch of true or false questions - can you do better than us?
