We start out this week with Pete doing the thing that all of us car people love.  He bought a new car.  It’s not a sports car but a new family hauler.  What third row seat beauty did Pete end up with?  After that BMW unveils the new look of the 2 series.  Pete and Rob break down the visuals comparing it to the previous model.  There are some good things and some bad which all in all is an improvement for BMW.  After that the guys drool all over Lotus’ new offering the Emira.  If you’re listening on your phone, be careful not to hold it too close to your mouth when looking at the pictures of the Emira.  Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

We start out this week with Pete contemplating his fleet and whether or not he should take advantage of the crazy market right now.  Should he flip his truck and take the cash to roll into something else?  Or play it safe and buy a civic?  After that we talk about the most iconic car from the early 2000’s, ( according to Rob ) Paul Walker’s Fast and Furious Supra, went up for auction and sold for quite a bit of cash.  How much cash you ask?  Listen to the episode to find out.  Or google it.  Or don’t do either and go make a sandwich.  www.joyridepod.com

This week on the Joyride Podcast Rob and Pete talk a little about their current car situation.  A new car is coming up on auction in a few weeks and Rob wishes he had the disposable income required to purchase it.  Paul Walker’s famous orange toyota supra is going up on auction.  After that Rob shares an article that EV drivers in California are finding out EV’s aren’t everything they’re cracked up to be.  Quickly pivoting to Ford selling 45,000 pre orders for their newest EV truck.  So it’s clear that there is a clear segment of the population that has an interest in an EV vehicle.  Including one half of the podcast.  Turns out Pete was one of those thousands of people who decided that Ford’s new EV might be for them.  Lastly we talk about how crazy the used car market is right now.  Anyone out there going to take advantage of the situation right now?  If you do send us an email and let us know what you did and what your plans are for the money.
