    Nothing but respect for Jay. I was lucky enough to visit his garage through a friend of a friend and first thing I saw walking in was Jay leaned over into the engine bay of a pre-war Bentley. He stood up and turn around and I was star struck. Immediately he said hello, shook my hand, offered me a soda, and told me to make myself at home. He is the real deal.

    My Dad grew up during the depression, the oldest of eight kids in the family. He and all his brothers were good mechanics. My dad could figure out and fix anything mechanical, he could work with concrete, and he could and did build houses. That is what the depression did for many people in those days. His granddaughter took an office job in the old Stutz building in Indianapolis, IN. He asked for a tour since he had not been in the building in many years, but he had been there as a young man. The owner agreed and gave dad a tour. Then my Dad started telling the owner different things about the factory that he remembered. So, in the end it was the new owner who got the history tour.

    Jay Leno is Jay Leno. He is balanced, on camera anyway, in his attitude about American ingenuity, and how people are creative. He is not publicly political, he only has one shirt and one pair of pants, and does what he wants. People want to be in his circle of influence and I enjoy watching when I get a chance.

    Lots of fun, as always. My first car was a used Corvair in the late 60’s, always enjoy hearing hearing Jay talk about them. And too I’ve been a car nut my whole life, mostly restoring British roadsters. One or two quick points that were glossed over. Fixing up an $800 car and selling it for $1200 is a 50% profit. That’s always a good move, but even moreso when you allow for the difference in monetary value at the time. That $400 profit in the 60’s would be a $4000 profit today.

      As a teenager my friend had an early Corvair. We drove that thing to death and occasionally pushed it to it's handling limit. Two years in a row we ended up on the same lawn and got away with it.. Would not have tolerated that from my own kids. We had a blast!

    Jay hit on something really important that most manufacturers have forgotten or ignored and it is killing the personal transportation industry. Find ways to make things cost less and make them affordable to sell a ton of them. The pursuit of luxury is making most things too expensive.

    • @mossmiller

      Hyundai had a good formula for making affordable cars 20 years ago. Keep it simple, build it right. I sold them back in those years; you could get a very nice Elantra for $12K. Today, with all the electronics even an Accent can cost $20K after dealer markup. So they will no longer make it for '23. The Elantra now costs as much as a Civic, $22-30K. But watch that your engine does not catch fire and incinerate the car. Around Northern Westchester, most new vehicles are huge pickup trucks or Jeeps, cost be damned, $100 fill up no problem. EVs start at $55K, get on the waiting list. But keep in mind the Li-ion battery technology will soon be obsolete.

      @Jo Mma every recent study concludes an EV powered by the current grid mix is better for the environment than a gasser over the life of a car. Go read the ICCT study and the one from researchers at the University of Exeter, Cambridge, and Nijmeggen. The only argument is whether the EV repays the environmental cost of its heavy recyclable battery after 7,500, 15,000, or 30 000 miles. It's intuitively obvious when you realize a 35 mpg gasser burns through 10 tons of fossil fuel over 120,000 miles.
      Since the majority of new generation is wind and solar, because they're cheap and quick, every EV on the road will only get cleaner in the future.
