Missing gear indicators, brake assist concerns, camera failures, and the kind of recall notice nobody wants to hear: “park it outside.” We move fast through this week’s car recalls across brands, then slow down just enough to talk about what they mean in real life, like how a simple display issue can become a safety problem, and why battery and motor overheating warnings deserve immediate attention.
Next, we turn Hemmings auction results into a listener game and let the market humble us. We guess sold prices on a low-mile 1994 Corvette convertible, a 1969 Camaro Z28 tribute, a modified big-block 1966 Corvette, a first-year 1964 and a half Mustang, and even a 2000 Aston Martin DB7 that looks far more expensive than it sells for. Along the way, we unpack why classic car values swing so hard based on documentation, originality, tasteful upgrades, rust, and the simple question every buyer should ask: “Is it actually ready to drive?”
We also share our cruise-in and events calendar around the Houston area, then hit the week’s automotive news: a Waymo robotaxi incident that proves “driverless” can still mean “watched,” data showing online dealer service scheduling beats phone calls, AI changing how people research cars under $45,000, EV range anxiety fading, and tariffs and USMCA-style trade rules looming over North American manufacturing.
