This week, we have special guest Dave Conner, Kyle’s dad! We talk all about his vehicular history and what led him to eventual EV ownership. He’s had many cars and loves to dive into understanding the technology underneath. We also dream of future cars, maybe some coming sooner than we thought! You can find him road tripping his IONIQ 5 (or whatever he owns next) in the Eastern US.

We jump right in to Kyle’s F-150 Lightning driving experience. The Pro is a heck of a value, if you can track one down! Kyle has also joined the Range Rover Classic ownership experience, sharing in the fun Mike and Ben have experienced. We’ve been off-roading the Colorado ZR2, and Kyle drove a Plaid with no yoke! He also drove the new Cayenne PHEV, and Jordan spent some valuable time with the BMW i4 M50. We’ve been busy!

This week, we have special guest Zack Klapman, producer and writer for The Smoking Tire. We dive into his career trajectory, from arriving in LA to playing a critical role in the Smoking Tire and work with /Drive. We talk about being in the automotive media, the cars we’ve been driving, and discuss the scope of upcoming EV brands. We’ve spent time with Rivian, Taycan, Tesla, and other seemingly successful EVs in the market, but what concepts will never arrive on our streets and in our driveways?
