The dust seems to be settling in the automotive industry, and Automotive Journalist and Voice of Reason, BJ Killeen, is getting more cars to test drive! There are still issues, but BJ discusses how the car markets are returning to normal, gives us info on the new Mercedes-Maybach S650, and reviews the new Hyundai Venue. Up next, Cartender Co-founder, and Freelance Automotive Journalist for CarGurus, Boston Globe, and U.S. News & World Report, George Kennedy III, tells us about Upshift, the advantage of online car magazines, and the amazing capabilities of the Ford F-350 Platinum. Then, we chat with Consignment Director of Mecum Auctions, Inc., Frank Mecum, about the triumphant return of Mecum Collector Car Auctions this June.

Closing out the show, Our Auto Expert, Mike Caudill, fills us in on some of the insane car deals that are available right now, the booming RV industry, and projects he's involved in that raise money and show respect to our military service members and first responders.
