Hot Laps Presented by Heatshield Products

We kick off this podcast with Ford announcing that they plan on being the 2nd largest EV manufacturer in the next 24 months. With the plans on producing 600,000 EVs per year after that.  Everyone gives there opinions and if they would buy an EV.  Electric Vehicles... what's not to like.  Well according to most of us... A LOT! Chris adds a little fuel to fire and brings up the fact that Ford and Purdue University is trying to develop a 2400 AMP cable that can charge an EV in 5 minutes.  Does that change anyone's mind.  What does Patrick say about 2400 AMPs and the human body? Steve and Shane give us an update on the 1965 F100.  When will it be ready to smoke tires? We close out the podcast with some Tech Questions and Steve talking about the first thing he will do when he moves to a free state. Hint - Gunpowder and a wick.

In this episode, Shane, Patrick and Chris discuss the "NEW" Hybrid Ford Maverick.  Just the name Maverick doesn't really get the blood pumping considering what they looked like back in the day but a smaller version of the Ranger has Ford gone mad? Do they really need another truck platform?  Well apparently they do as they are almost sold out.  Chris goes crazy and calls the push for hybrids a conspiracy theory to keep gas high but who knows.  Next what if you were forced to sell you car because you did a couple of donuts in the town square and ran from the cops.  Think its crazy... not in Germany.  We take you Tech Questions as always.  Come spend a few minutes with us and if it sucks let us know. If you like it subscribe.   

What in the heck is going on with gas in California and around the country?  Shane tells us about having to hock one of his kids to pay for gas in the 4 Runner.  Kidding... but you get the idea.  We discuss the battle of the East Coast Beers and West Coast Beers. We also discuss the show everyone watched when you stayed home sick from school... The Price Is Right!  Did you know over the years they had some pretty fine giveaway cars?  No?  We we get into it.  Thank you for listening.  Please consider subscribing.  

Well it is Friday the 13th and we are just sitting around discussing axe murders, serial killers and your tech questions... Kidding!  Today we talk about gas prices.  We talk about the states with the highest prices and the states with the lowest prices. The highest might not surprise you, but the lowest might. Then we talk about the increase in several of our favorite things gas, used cars, bacon and steak.  We talk about the new buzz word used by the car dealerships... "Market Adjustment" Of course we take your questions during Tech Time.  Thank you for listening.  Send us an email at [email protected], check out our website at www.heatshieldproducts.com and be sure to check us out on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook.

After months of delay Ford is finally shipping 1000's of trucks to their dealerships.  Speaking of trucks... Shane is on the hunt for a new Tacoma but there is no inventory.  We see if he is going to partake in the 1 Millionth Tacoma that is on sale at the Mecum Auction in August.  We also get his thoughts on the new Tundra and if he is scared the new Tacoma is going to look like it when he is ready to purchase a truck. Of course we take your "burning" questions during Tech Time. Please think about subscribing to your Podcast.  Thank you for listening.
