( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! On this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman and Tommy dive into one big question: Will the all-new 2027 Toyota Highlander actually sell? With the midsize SUV segment more competitive than ever, they break down what Toyota needs to get right, whether buyers are ready for major changes, and if the Highlander still has the magic that made it a family favorite for years.

Tommy also shares details from his recent first drive of the latest Mazda CX-5 and how it stacks up against the competition. The guys then take a hard look at Toyota’s growing EV strategy, discussing the brand’s full electric lineup — including models like the Toyota bZ and C-HR — and whether Toyota is finally all-in on battery power. Plus, they debate whether the buzzy Slate Truck has what it takes to survive in today’s brutal truck market.

Jeep’s Wrangler has more competition than ever before—but is Jeep doing enough to keep it on top? In this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman and Tommy break down what Jeep needs to change, fix, or completely rethink if it wants the Wrangler to stay relevant against a growing field of off-roaders and adventure SUVs. From pricing and powertrains to interior tech and reliability, nothing is off the table.

The guys dig into what rivals are doing better, where Jeep still dominates, and whether the Wrangler’s reputation alone is enough anymore. Is Jeep leaning too hard on nostalgia, or is there a smart path forward that keeps the Wrangler king of the trail and competitive on the road?

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman and Andre put three very different off-roaders head-to-head to find out which one truly does it all.

Each SUV represents a different approach to off-road capability, daily usability, and adventure readiness.

The guys walk through the strengths and weaknesses of each vehicle, show them up close, and then take them out for a bit of real-world off-roading to see how they handle dirt, obstacles, and uneven terrain. From trail performance to livability, this episode breaks down which of these off-road SUVs is the best all-around choice depending on how you actually plan to use it.
