(Very) Instant Impression - Chevy Volt Switches to Gas Power

Here's a very quick take on one of the most important aspects of the Volt. What happens when the car taps into the reserve gas tank? RoundAbout host Craig Cole took it for a long-distance drive and was able to record the transition. The result? Well, you'll just have to see.

RoAb #60 - The 'Turkeys' Episode

We're thankful for nothing if not the loyal fans that make RoundAbout worth every bit of effort we put into the show each week. So, to show our appreciation, enjoy a special 'Turkeys' episode of RoundAbout where we discuss some automotive duds and deadweights. This week we're also debuting our Holiday Gift Guide that will give you some ideas for the car guys and gals in your life. We'll have show notes available later in the week for the stuff we mentioned in the show, but for now we're keeping it easy and concentrating on spending time with our families. You do the same, 'kay?

RoAb #49 - The 'If You Can't Beat 'Em, Join 'Em' Episode

So we're back again--and apologies for any audio weirdness; our new studio set up still needs some work--and we're closing in on landmark episode 50. So, of course, loyal host that he is, Craig Cole has up and left us for some driving fun down South. No worries though, for Miss MotorMouth herself steps up to take a swing at the host's chair.

Our tenuous theme this week is 'If You Can't Beat 'Em, Join 'Em' and so we have stories of people and companies making their way in an adverse world. RIM patents billboards that change their content to meet the speed of traffic, meanwhile Switzerland realizes it can't stop public fornication, but they can hide it. Also, some big rigs decide they're going to join the world of jetplanes and spew copious amounts of brightly-colored gas into the air. Plus we've got editions of BLIND SPOT, AUTOGADGET, PSY-CAR-LOGY and way, way more, so stay tuned for this rip-roaring edition of RoundAbout.
