Surprising Lexus EV, Honda’s Excellent Hybrid,
Everything about the redesigned Toyota Tacoma
Jill and Tom opened the show by discussing how the show was recognized by Feedspot as one of the must-listen podcasts of 2023. Tom went on to discuss how impressed he was with the 2023 Lexus RX450e, the brand’s first all-electric vehicle. Jill also shares similar enthusiasm for the Honda Accord 2023, especially in the hybrid version. The duo also took some time to discuss industrial supplier BorgWarner’s split from their internal combustion unit, Phinia, which went public last week. According to Tom, the move demonstrates BorgWarner’s commitment to electrification.
In the second season, Jill and Tom welcome Sheldon Brown, Chief Engineer at Toyota, to the show. Calling from the Tacoma factory in Baja, Mexico, Sheldon shared a wealth of information about the redesigned midsize pickup truck, including intended buyer expectations, lead time, and information. Details about the new Trailhunter terrain-ready trim levels.
Jill was faced with Tom’s “Fun Facts about the Company” test in the third segment. After the quiz, Tom talked about the lovely but somewhat pricey Ford Bronco Sport Heritage Limited, which boasts interesting vintage design themes.
