In this week's episode - we talk about the Super Bowl car commercials and whether they hit or missed their mark. Our movie this week, 1982's "The Secret of NIMH" which was chock-full of cars obviously. Adam brings us some garbage that New York City is up to - enforcing exhaust sound levels by autonomously recording audio and images of your car and sending letters. We also discuss the news that corn-based ethanol production in the US is actually worse for the environment than gasoline. Not ethanol itself, mind you, but the costs associated with producing ethanol from corn. Adam also talks various engine designs over the years, from single-cylinders, to VR6s, to W12s. Also we talk about the cargo ship in the Atlantic that is ablaze while carrying VWs and Porsches.
In the second half, a certain Allroad is definitely not getting Bilstein coilovers. Bruce trashes Elon Musk's various endeavors. AJ brings us the history of Super Bowl car commercials followed up by the cheapest cars you can buy brand new today. We round out the episode with your weekly dose of car trivia.
