Description

There’s no question that today’s SUVs and crossovers are far more advanced than their predecessors from just a decade ago. From their complex suspension and off-road systems to their different drive modes and transmissions, to their now, hybrid, electric and turbocharged powertrains, these everyday family haulers are more intricate than ever. But is all this technology necessary and even wanted by the consumer, and ultimately, does it make these machines better? Oh, and don’t even get us started on the cost.   To help us answer these questions and more we’re joined today by Ryan Douthit of Driving Sports TV. Ryan’s specialty is reviewing the latest and greatest in the off-road and SUV segment, and he even has his own test facility to do it. So, if you’re in the market for a new crossover, off-roader, or SUV, this is an episode you’ll not want to miss!

Dan Stoner and Mike Musto have been in this business for quite some time. Stoner comes from the world of big advertising and publishing before coming to Hemmings, while Musto made a name for himself as an automotive journalist and show creator. What do they have in common? Well, everything and nothing. They’ve got different tastes in cars and are both jealous of each other’s grooming habits, YET, they both love everything automotive culture has to offer. Thus, an idea was hatched, and The Hemmings Hot Rod BBQ was born!
