In a topic-packed first segment, Jill and Tom opened the show discussing the potential alliance between Nissan and EV startup Fisker. The Hookup would allow Nissan to build and retail a version of the struggling EV startup’s coming Alaska midsize pickup. 

The hosts went on to discuss Ford’s successful alliance with Tesla. The Ford Mustang Mach-E crossover and F-150 Lightning pickup can now be charged at any of Tesla’s famously reliable Supercharger stations—an adapter, available from Ford, is required. 

To wrap up the first segment, Jill shared her impressions of the 2024 Honda Passport TrailSport. The off-road themed midsize crossover looks rugged, but is it refined enough for daily use? Listen in for Jill’s complete review. 

In the second segment Jill and Tom welcome Robert Colangelo to the show. Founder of CEA technologies, and host of The Green Sense Show, Robert shared his experience behind the wheel of the Aptera, a 2-seat electric car featuring a 3-wheel design and solar charging. While the Aptera seems a little far out on the cutting edge, Robert is optimistic about its potential in the market place. 

In the last segment, Jill is subjected to Tom’s “5-speed, 6-speed, or 7-speed” quiz. How did Jill do? And, did Jill get the Arby’s bonus question?
