Patrick and Tim kick off the show by recapping how tariffs are impacting the auto industry one week in. They offer up some buying advice for this wild time: Consider a used EV while prices are still low.

Then the guys discuss a new American EV startup that’s coming out of stealth soon, according to a report from TechCrunch. Slate Auto is backed by Amazon's Jeff Bezos and plans to launch a $25,000 electric pickup truck in the next couple of years. Will people buy it? And can EV startups still succeed in 2025 after so many have failed?

Finally, Patrick and Tim explain why China’s BYD could be the ultimate winner of Trump’s trade war, and why America’s bike industry is screwed.
