That’s The Way They Wanted It

Published: 10 March 2020


A listener question turns into a big discussion on the politics surrounding electronic vehicles. Ben covers a question on catalytic converters and O2 sensors, but we get a little distracted on the matter. Apparently we have a lot to say about electric lawnmowers and leaf-blowers. Also, can Beka answer both Grand Trivia Auto questions?

Would You Put That On Your Resume?

Published: 18 February 2020


We are joined by Beka, Ben, Mickey, and Cathy. (It was Cathy’s first time at the TTAC table!) We talk about car book publishing, bad driving, and throw in a little bit gift giving! Ben talks about his Lotus–is it good news? Mickey gives a little bit on insight on the person who won the Seal-skin giveaway and what he did with it. And the question of the episode is what would be good for a clutch leak? Plug in for this episode of The Thing About Cars!

Why No More Wankels?

Published: 11 February 2020


Mazda Man Paul talks with us about why the Wankel engine has fallen out of production in Mazda’s RX line. We get into the future of the Wankel in other applications. What does the Mazda Man drive, anyway? Cathy has left the building, but we still talk about autonomous car accidents. LEDs are annoying, but Mickey may still put one on the Honda. And speaking of lights, why do we see so many more people driving around with their lights off?
