Bring Back Stereo Dolphins!

Bring back stereo dolphins! We think there's a market for simplified vehicles that will outlast you with proper maintenance, and we think diesel, non-hybrid, trucks with no built-in infotainment, and manual options would be just the thing. Doug DeMuro disagrees, but do you? It turns out about 1/2 a million Washington drivers have expired tabs. In a surprise to no one living in the area of constantly increasing taxes and costs, more drivers than ever are skipping tab renewals. We often forget the tabs on our motorcycles and trailers, but what about you? Did you hear this episode then suddenly realize your tabs are still from 2021? Living in that RTA zone and it just doesn't make sense to renew them for you? Tesla pulls the plug on the Model S and Model X; is it a sign of decreasing demand for EVs? 

Questions for the audience this week! 

  • Is simplicity something you want and would actually pay for? Is there an actual market for vehicles like the 70 series or is it just a nice idea? 

  • What vehicles is close to perfect, except for 1 or 2 glaringly obvious flaws like the Prelude?  

  • What other manufacturers are obviously missing the mark on their models besides the Honda Prelude?

  • Did you "forget" to renew your tabs? Is it just too expensive now?
