Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns

Get wound up and the oddball icing stacks up.  From the accelerating failure of Ford's useless electric trucks (as heralded by the frauds at Autoweek) to a strange-by-creepy exposé of intersections that put traffic at odds (and who's in control of what), plus bearing witness to an in-situ near dive-bomb on law enforcement by a not-very-piloted Tesla...  With a late-night radio chaser from Red Eye, Nouri and Ground Zero - the Garage Hour is here to inform your non-consent.

While we're at it: why what's missing from automakers is more than "chips", why defining your elitist fluffer-dream with your neighbors' taxes is pure fail, and the sadness that is Colorado's embrace of Kalifornistan's 40-year old stupidity.

We've got places to be!  Get out of the Garage Hour's way, because there's bike parts, buckets, lumber, hangars, tire irons, fuel cans, straps, chains, come-alongs, brooms, ducting, coolers, bungees and street signs to be found.  That, plus traffic's Accordion Effect, an iPod that knows where we're going, American-style legal reforms in a third-world jungle, and a whole lot of analysis about rich celebrities whose automobile is a social dowsing rod.

While it's on the burner: cyborgs, driving fast (fastmobile then beverate), fixing solenoids by hitting them harder (damn Siamese port long-tubes), and securing your load before we get it for free.

(Not) lost in the woods with the gearhead goons - Hostus Maximus Justin Fort joins the Walkin' Dude at his Black Forest shop for an hour to work through finding the newest small-dollar commuter.  In this case, it's an $800 third-gen 4Runner, and we've got deets on how to find your own: what to look for, what's it "need", how to find the "panic point" and how a good truck CAN be more than the sum of its parts.

There's more:  Primus, Claypool, John Paul Jones, Cumberland Gap, Monolord, Goatsnake, beers from Estes Park Brewery, Toyotas from Iran, Mustangs from Australia and Epstein didn't kill himself.
