Description

Kicking off the show we chat with Automotive Journalist, BJ Killeen, about the new 2020 Subaru Outback, the power and love of Subaru products and their marketing campaign, and Carlos Ghosn's Jason Bourne-esque escape from Japan. Then, we catch up with Cartender Co-Founder and Freelance Automotive Journalist for CarGurus, Boston Globe, and U.S. News & World Report, George Kennedy III, who recently drove the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD; find out why this truck is a beast, even with a few design issues holding it back. Next up, Leake Classic Car Auction General Manager, Gary Bennett, tells us about a new auction in the Leake lineup, after new management purchased the company, and gives us the history of the company dating back to 1964. Changing gears, Executive Publisher for Autotrader, Kelley Blue Book, and Dealer.com, Karl Brauer, details the escape of Carlos Ghosn from an apparent unjust imprisonment in Japan, tells us about electric vehicles outselling manual transmission sales, and gives us the numbers for 2019 automotive sales. Switching lanes, Founder of Travelocity and Author of "Disruption OFF", Terry Jones, explains how Elon Musk and Henry Ford were actually very similar characters and compares and contrasts his reasons for loving his Ford Model A and Tesla Model X.
