Description

We know, we know, the new Chevrolet C8 Corvette is awesome at an attractive price; but don't count the older generations of Corvette out. Kicking off the show, Autotrader Executive Editor, Brain Moody, talks about all of the sweet Corvettes from the 60s, 70s, and 80s that you can get for pretty dang cheap, and the previous generation C7 Corvette that is still an amazing ride. We also discuss language that will help you be more car dealer savvy, and Toyota's upgrade to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Then, automotive journalist, BJ Killeen, chats about Alan's recent appearance on Drivers Talk Radio, and her test drive of the Lexus UX 200. Switching lanes, A Mile A Way Productions Producer, Michael Miles, gives us the inspiration for his soon-to-be-released film, "Rapid Response", which covers the evolution and importance of safety in racing. Next up, Alan fills us in on how he made the transition from wrecking yard owner to nationwide automotive radio host. Student at Hennessey Tuner School, Jason Kutner, is also making moves in his life to become a car-crazy automotive journalist and describes how following his passions has lead to a more fulfilling life. Changing gears, Hemmings Motor News Editor-in-Chief, Terry McGean, fills us in on their brand-new online auction website. Hemmingsauctions.com will have a host of full support staff ready to help sellers create an auction posting for their car that is sure to grab the eye of any prospective buyers. Tune in for more automotive insights, news, and reviews.
