Description
Horsepower, groovin' tunes, and the open road sound like the perfect day in many gearheads' minds. We are fortunate enough to begin the show with John Oates of Hall and Oates, who is a real car guy! He answers some questions from THE DRIVE with Alan Taylor's fans on Facebook and tells us how he fell in love with Porsches. John also dives into explaining the new project car he is working on, a Porsche 356, with builder Rod Emery who invented the original 356 Outlaw concept. John also fills us in on his upcoming solo and Hall and Oates tour so you can know where to see these classic artists near you. Next, we are joined by automotive journalist, BJ Killeen, who shares her review of the 2018 Ford Expedition that she and her husband had the pleasure of taking on a cross-country trip. She explains the comfort level, the incredible power of the 3.5L turbocharged V6 engine, and the 28-gallon fuel tank which achieved 24-mpg highway. BJ and Alan also briefly touch on the newly unveiled Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye that will be hitting the production line soon. Changing gears, Brian Moody of Autotrader is here to sound off about the newly introduced Chevrolet Blazer, which surprised his expectations. He then gives us a list of the "7 New Convertibles Under $40,000 for 2018" which include the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro, Jeep Wrangler, Mazda Miata and more. After that Brian details the Fastest-Depreciating Cars in 2018 such as the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cadillac SRX, and more - all of which have depreciated by 50% after three years. All of this and so much more - get up to speed with us now!
