Company Cars

Overseas Delivery Programs, what they are, how did we end up with them briefly during the 1990s and 2000s, why we only have 1 program standing, and whether that program (Volvo) is a good idea or not. I also talk about my rental of a brand new Cadillac XT5 Premium Luxury from Hertz in Phoenix, AZ.

Howdy! For this long belated episode, I do a drive-by of three of the most impactful events in the automotive market this year: 1) Tesla's continued price cuts, which launched an EV price battle, 2) is EV demand saturating?, and 3) how high interest rates have impacted certain corners of the car market. I also discuss a rental car roulette that is a minivan- my favorite category of cars! I drive a 2022 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Touring-L from Budget Rent-a-Car!

On this emergency episode of the podcast, I evaluate and assess the big Tesla price cuts implemented on January 13, 2023 and what the immediate implications for other automakers, current Tesla owners, and EV shoppers. I also talk about a fun rental car roulette- a Ford Mustang Ecoboost Convertible!

On the first episode of 2023, I reflect on how the automotive market went in 2022 for consumers, dealers, and automakers and talk about how 2023 might unfold. I also evaluate a Toyota RAV4 Hybrid that was surprisingly available at Hertz!

On this episode, I mourn the end of the manual transmission and discuss how from a business perspective we've wound up at this point. I also discuss the first pickup truck on rental car roulette! Have an automotive related question? Send it to [email protected]!
