Hello Road

What happens when two car enthusiasts decide that they might be done with cars? There are obviously problems and expenses that come along with being fans of older vehicles. But beyond our simple car hobby lie much larger issues. Automakers and car dealers are pushing larger, less efficient vehicles loaded an increasing level of distracting technology inside. Car-centric road design is often unsafe for pedestrians and cyclists and pushes a car dependent lifestyle on everyone—whether you like it or not. Last year saw the most pedestrian fatalities in the US in 40 years. Our cities have provided us with few options to safely walk or bike with our kids. Are we finally done with automobiles? What can we do about all this?

Owning Old Cars - 5:08

Car Enthusiasts that Are Starting to Hate Cars - 24:50

Let's spend some time looking for automotive deals on craigslist! Should we make some dumb decisions and buy the cheapest car we can find?

Let’s talk about the canyon drives we’ve done recently. When organizing gatherings of fellow car enthusiasts, we always like to ensure a wide array of vehicle types/marques/sizes/eras. Not only does it make it more interesting, we just couldn’t figure out a way to organize a drive solely of 1990s Daihatsus!

Guest time! Today we're joined by automotive journalist, suspension guru, and Miata owner Dan Edmunds! Come join us!

The automobile has been around for 136 years! But it hasn't all been Lamborghini Countaches and Ferrari Testarossas—there were some dark years in automotive history. In today's episode, let's determine the all-time worst decade for cars! Brad Hansen from Retro Cars Forever joins us again as we choose the crappiest 10 year span in automotive history. Come join us!

It's time for another Q&A episode, and our first ever video episode! Let's talk about Ford Freestyles, Ford Mavericks, overpriced Ford chassis cabs on Bring A Trailer, Fiat Multiplas, Citroens, and our upcoming rally! Come join us.

Let's talk about Ethan's new truck, the Radwood show that Paul missed, Autopia 2099, Daihatsus on Bring A Trailer, and more!

We're baaaaack from our podcasting hiatus! Today let's chat about the status of our car projects! Ethan is still just an idiot with too many cars. How many of them are currently running? Paul has been addicted to tracking his Honda Fit, but is there another car on the horizon for him? Let's find out! Also, sorry about the audio quality, Ethan is also an idiot when it comes to recording, the wrong audio input was selected for his microphone. Whoops :)

Hey! We're on our 50th episode! Congrats us! Today we're glad to have auto journalist Peter Nelson (CarBibles, Donut Media) join us. Let's chat about the Car Bibles site, writing about cars, and tracking a 100 horsepower Mazda2!

In today's episode, we're glad to have automotive journalist Steven Ewing (CNET Roadshow) join us again! Somehow we managed to only talk about things that begin with the letter M. Miatas, McLarens, Minivans, Mid-Engined Cars, and the new Ford Maverick. Come join us!
