  • Barn Finds: Montana's Hidden 600-Vehicle Treasure Trove
    Jul 28 2025

    An automotive time capsule awaits discovery in the rolling hills of Montana where approximately 600 vehicles lie scattered across 100 acres of countryside. This extraordinary barn find collection, headed to auction through Vanderbrink Auctions, features everything from 1920s classics and vintage fire trucks to Plymouths, Rivieras, and even a rare 1961 bubble top with intact glass. The remote location adds to the mystique – so far from civilization there's no cell service, creating a treasure hunter's paradise where viewing requires dedication and extraction demands ingenuity.

    Our hosts dive deep into what makes this auction special, exploring the logistics of purchasing vehicles from such a remote location and imagining creative uses for these automotive relics. The conversation turns playful as they contemplate converting a 1923 American LaFrance fire truck into a mobile barbecue pit, complete with sauce-dispensing hoses – a quintessential example of American automotive enthusiasm and creativity.

    The episode transitions to Jeff's Car Culture segment featuring extraordinary high-mileage vehicles that have made their way into the Guinness World Records. From a 1964 Porsche 356C with one million miles to the ultimate distance champion – a 1966 Volvo P1800 owned by Irv Gordon that achieved an astonishing 3.25 million miles before his passing. These remarkable stories of automotive longevity reveal not just mechanical resilience, but deep bonds between owners and their beloved vehicles.

    Marrs rounds out the show with a surprising array of local Houston-area driving destinations, including the Art Deco 1940 Air Terminal Museum, an underwater shark tunnel train ride, and even a zipline adventure park hiding in plain sight. These hidden gems remind listeners that automotive adventures don't always require long-distance travel, sometimes the most unexpected experiences are right in our backyard, waiting to be discovered with the same enthusiasm as a field of forgotten classics in Montana.

  • Volvo EX40, the Largest Car Collections, and the Land Rover Defender...
    Jul 25 2025

    Automotive enthusiasts, buckle up for a three-course journey through the cutting edge of electric vehicles, the rarified world of elite car collections, and the rugged charm of an off-road icon reborn.

    We start by examining Volvo's latest electric offering—the 2025 EX40 Twin Motor Ultra AWD. Built in Belgium on the framework of last year's XC40, this all-electric crossover brings 402 horsepower and advanced pixel headlight technology to the premium EV segment. However, not everything about modern technology improves the driving experience. The EX40's touchscreen-centric control system requires four separate taps just to power down the vehicle—an unnecessarily complex solution to a problem that never existed. Despite these interface frustrations, the EX40 delivers competitive performance against rivals from Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Genesis, though at a premium price point starting at $62,045 for the Ultra trim.

    We then explore automotive passion at its most extreme with a tour of the world's most impressive car collections. From Dmitry Lomakov's Soviet-era treasures in Moscow to Ken Lingenfelter's performance-focused American muscle cars, these collections represent deep dedication to automotive preservation. The Sheikh of Abu Dhabi specializes in off-road vehicles including a massive Mercedes monster truck, while the Sultan of Brunei reigns supreme with approximately 7,000 vehicles valued at $5 billion—including 600 Rolls-Royces, 450 Ferraris, and numerous one-off custom creations that exist nowhere else.

    Finally, we take the wheel of the 2024 Land Rover Defender, Slovakia's boxy tribute to off-road capability. With its distinctive silhouette and doors that "shut like an old Norge refrigerator," the Defender combines rugged charm with modern luxuries. The mild-hybrid powertrain delivers 395 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, propelling this 5,000-pound fortress with surprising efficiency. While the $81,923 as-tested price positions it against premium competitors like the Lexus GX and Jeep Wagoneer, current import tariffs present challenges for Land Rover's supply chain.

    Whether you're fascinated by electric innovation, dream car collections, or capable off-roaders, join us for these automotive explorations that showcase the breadth and depth of today's automotive landscape. What would you choose: cutting-edge technology, historical preservation, or go-anywhere capability?

  • Car Talk, Auto Appraisals, and the Volvo EX40 review
    Jul 25 2025

    Looking for straight talk about electric vehicles? Our review of the 2025 Volvo EX40 Twin Motor Ultra pulls no punches, exposing both impressive features and frustrating flaws in this Belgian-built EV. With 402 horsepower and advanced pixel headlight technology, the vehicle offers plenty of power and premium features—but requires navigating through four separate touchscreen interactions just to turn it off.

    The real-world economics of EV ownership take center stage as we reveal how driving 270 miles required two charging sessions costing $33.59, while the same money would fuel a conventional truck for 232 miles without the charging delays. At an MSRP of $62,045 for our test model, the EX40 faces stiff competition from Mercedes, Audi, and Genesis alternatives.

    Auto appraiser Michael Wooding joins us to discuss the current state of the classic car market, revealing how economic uncertainty has created a buyer's paradise where normally $25,000 vehicles are selling for just $8,000. Wooding shares valuable insights about auto appraisals for insurance purposes, diminished value claims, and project cars in various stages of restoration.

    We round out the episode with upcoming car events across Texas and breaking automotive news, including Volvo's decision to trim its US product offerings, the elimination of fuel efficiency penalties for automakers, and Rivian's impressive new electric pickups and SUVs packing over 1,000 horsepower.

    Whether you're contemplating an electric vehicle purchase, curious about the value of your classic car in today's market, or simply want to stay informed about the rapidly evolving automotive landscape, this episode delivers the unfiltered, expert analysis you need to navigate your automotive decisions.
