RoAb #75 - The 'You're Doing it Wrong' Episode

Unless you listen to RoundAbout you’re doing it wrong, which is convenient, because that’s our theme this week.  Up for discussion is an array of stories including a man that was definitely doing it wrong when he got jacked up on drugs and went speeding off to save his girlfriend from aliens.  No, we’re not making this up.  The panel also takes a look at what could be the world’s ugliest Jaguar, EVER, plus we debut a brand-new segment called Design Hall.  Everything expert and automotive entertainer Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics sounds off on a controversial design trend that’s been sweeping the industry the last few years.  All in all, if you don’t listen to RoundAbout #75, the “You’re Doing it Wrong” episode you will, in fact, not be doing it right.

RoAb #22 - The 'From Bad to Worse' Episode

There's this car company--you may have heard of it--but it's having a really bad week, heck, couple of weeks. No, it's not one of the automakers crawling from the wreckage that is the smoldering city of Detroit. Actually, it's that one that all the magazines tell you is the sure buy. First things went bad for them, but lo and behold, they have gotten worse and worse. So, in solidarity we're going to stand by their side and bring you, dear listener, the 'From Bad to Worse' episode.

It was bad when the Pontiac Solstice was sent to the old folks home to retire, it's worse now that it's been bastardized as an ugly, ugly EV. And, when you attempt to right an overturned semi, remember to put the parking brake on. Speaking of out-of-control trucks, we smell a new anti-porn law coming to a state near you. Plus we've got another installment of In the Garage as Zach gets a turn behind the wheel of the Buick LaCrosse and it's everyone's favorite gameshow, The Price is CORRECT!

RoAb #14 - The 'Eye of the Beholder' Episode

One man's fashionable and functional Russian, rabbit fur hat is another man's hideous, PETAian nightmare. It's all a matter of perspective, and of course the same is true in the automotive world.

Dodge's chunky Challenger is named Consumer Reports' most satisfying vehicle. A Chinese truck driver's eye beholds the icy winds of the open road. Hofele melds the best of both worlds in the Audi family to create a truly hideous steed. Plus, our Blind Spot story, the Ford Transit Connect is In the Garage and the internet's coming to your car in this week's AutoGadget.
