Your next car might not be chosen by you or even by the dealer, and that’s just one of the wild threads we pull this week. We kick things off with a fast, practical run through key automotive recalls, including a massive RAM pickup recall tied to a seat belt anchor issue, plus Jeep wheel concerns, Land Rover rearview camera trouble, and a Ford Bronco fire-risk note. If you like staying ahead of safety issues, this is the kind of recap that can save real headaches.
Then we have some fun with our sold car roundup guessing game, and it turns into an unexpected lesson in classic car values. We throw out guesses, compare notes with our regulars, and react in real time as everything from a 1964 Buick Wildcat convertible to a rare Volvo 1800 finds its number. The moment that really flips the table is the 2001 Aston Martin DB7 V12, because the badge says “big money,” but the final price says “welcome to the cost of ownership.”
We also share our take on the 2026 Lexus IS350 F Sport, from the styling tweaks to the upgraded infotainment and why a naturally aspirated V6 still feels like the right kind of “proven” in a daily driver sports sedan. We wrap with quick hits on the racing calendar, this week in auto history, and headlines that shape the future of the auto industry: AI shopping agents, tariff-driven supply chain pressure, and new interest in emergency door egress rules.
