Car Talk

This week on The Best of Car Talk, our favorite depressed college freshman, Leah, checks in with an update on her whereabouts-physical and emotional. Did she adjust to life on campus and follow Tom and Ray's advice to embrace failure? Elsewhere, Andy wants to know if electronic gizmos can improve his Suburban's gas mileage to, say, 5 miles per gallon; Chris' Belvedere is growing flowers in the front seat and stinks of blue cheese; and the severity of Dan's coolant loss may be directly tied to his religious practices. All this and more, this week on The Best of Car Talk.

37:45 His groans while this guy explains his issue are hilarious.

I would guess that Andy's wife could get better fuel economy with the 7.4 litre beast, by installing a head that increases the compression ratio of the engine. However, that might mean more NOX emissions, and wear on critical engine components, plus something could pop. Or just drive it only when moving the horses! 🐎😊

Thom passed away and the show ended as they both retired.Very sad.These two were funny and would have been nice to meet them.
