Each year, Consumer Reports publishes their findings on best new and used cars, SUVs and trucks. The guys take the new data and see if CR’s results matches their experiences, and they’re surprised by some discoveries. For Tony S., they debate vehicles that could potentially have a hitch rack semi-permanently installed - but he wants something sporty too. Then, Doug in MI is having an existential car crisis because he needs one do-it-all car for nearly every category of driving. Car conclusions cover an ultimate sleeper for Brian in NY, and a discovery for Paul C., who got a dynamic company commuter car that’s also good for track use!

Audio-only MP3 is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and 10 other platforms.
