Lizz future career in impressions may be uncertain, but her baby on the way and new house are both sure things. Kelly is getting her first peak at the place soon and planning her future Trader Joe's, Target, and Lizz runs.

Jennifer Stockburger from Consumer Reports joins Kelly and Lizz to talk about how they test, what they test for, and even what their recommendations are for young drivers. 

Jennifer shares how Consumer Reports didn't start out with an auto-focus and when they made the move to expand, their reviewers were borrowing friends' cars to report on. Today, Consumer Reports has an auto division that is entirely funded by Consumer Reports subscriptions ensuring their reviews are as impartial as possible. 

Every car goes through a break-in process to receive its road test score. By the end of 6 to 12 months the car has accumulated 10,000-20,000 miles including everyday driving tests. They then receive reliability and owner satisfaction ratings. In 2023 Consumer Reports had also collected over 330,000 responses on individual cars adding to their robust consumer data.
