Let's Talk Wheels

Mike Herzing and Jeremy Birenbaum tackle this week’s biggest automotive stories: Honda’s massive EV losses and the resulting delays to mass-market models, rumors of Ford reviving the Ranchero name, and Mazda filing trademarks for new CX crossovers. They also review the blisteringly quick 2026 Cadillac Optiq V‑Series EV and sit down with GM’s Maria Thomas about training the next generation of technicians. The episode finishes with classic car and hot rod Q&A from Jeremy, news on body‑on‑frame vehicles making a comeback, and a lively roundup of tips and tales for enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike.
