Someone put the Ford Lightning to a real life towing test, and it did not do so well. Rick Ross gets his driver’s license after 45 years, the car community steps up for two orphaned children, and a Florida man helps save a baby in a rollover crash. The government wants to speed shame drivers, and the new car industry is out of control in more than one way. All this plus our inventory picks of the week.

We have a special guest this week and focus on the topic of car detailing. Owner and operator of Mobile Exotic Detailing in Metro Atlanta, Joe, hangs out with us and tells us story of weird things he's had to clean up, tips for at-home detailing, and why you should retire your car duster. Leave your questions for Joe below about detailing for a follow-up episode.

Thanks https://www.mobilexodetailing.com for sitting down with us.

*We are not specifically endorsing the business and have not taken any money to have Joe on the show. He detailed and ceramic coated my cars at full price. They are donating their time to talk to us and answering questions about detailing, and are not affiliated or partnered with Motorious in anyway.
