Do you know what that long string of letters and numbers on your tires means? If you do, you just might get today’s trivia question. Mickey’s friend says tachometers being stupid. Is he right or is he wrong? Ben has been as giddy as a school girl to talk about the new Corvette. Also, the group discusses other gauges. And we have a new idea: TTAC should design its own sports car.

Ben gives us a Project Lotus update; Mickey considers LS swapping a Model T; and Beka has an idea for how to start a new car company. While Ronny uses “the googles,” Mickey offers to help Ben with the Lotus, and promises not to break anything. Also, Ben asks, “what installation sheet?” The crew talk about the new Lotus, and discuss certain accessories that they don’t like. And trivia gets a new name!

A nun, a milkman, a blind man, and a teacher walk into a trivia question… Why hasn’t anyone ever asked the curbs if they want to be felt-up? Also, problems with cars being possessed. Mickey wants to talk about a recent JD Power article. And more on Mopar interior panel clips.
