Off-Road Shenanigans, Tow-charging an EV, BMW X5 PHEV, Ford V2V Charging

Welcome to the Out of Spec Podcast! This week, we look at the aspect of tow-charging a Tesla in a pinch versus Ford’s new vehicle-to-vehicle charging capability announced for the Lightning and PowerBoost F-150. We also talk off-roading the GX and an unfortunate Tacoma collision. Tesla releases a new software update, and Kyle drives the new Mercedes AMG EQS 53. Plus much, much more!
