Toyota Tundra V8 values, turbocharged truck reliability, California tire rules, and affordable off-roading drive this conversation with automotive journalist and professional test driver Justin Fort.
Justin, host of Hank Watson’s Garage Hour, joins Matt West to explain what separates a competent test driver from the exceptionally talented racers at the top of the sport. They discuss driving at the limit, learning car control on dirt, and the rare qualities that made drivers such as Ayrton Senna and Mark Donohue extraordinary.
The conversation then turns toward California’s replacement-tire regulations and whether manufacturers, retailers, and drivers will find ways around them. Matt and Justin also examine why older V8 Toyota Tundras command such strong prices, how turbocharging and ten-speed transmissions add complexity to modern trucks, and why simple, well-developed vehicles often earn the strongest reputations for durability.
Plus: Toyota 4Runners, Jeep engines, junkyard off-road builds, Ford Raptors, questionable LS swaps, listener car sounds, and Matt’s planned Toyota Century mobile podcast studio.
