RoAb #7 - The 'What Not to Do' Episode

This week we thought we'd get all psychological on you and teach by bad example. For instance, everyone knows it's a bad idea to text on your phone while driving--don't they? Maybe not. That's why today we present you with a parade of people who learned the hard way what not to do while driving.

You know those weight limits you'll find in your owners manual? Turns out they're there for a reason--even if you're driving a truck the size of a house. While you're driving that industrial dumptruck, by the way, don't forget that it's a workplace on wheels and all non-smoking regulations apply. And when you do get off for the weekend and go to the track, remember that just because your Ferrari has an automatic, it's no excuse to knit. All that plus, our features this week: In the Garage with a Roush 540RH Mustang, a BMW AutoGadget we take issue with, an iPhone app that drives your van in the Stupid Car Trick and more!

RoAb #2 - The 'In Your Dreams' Episode

The Frankfurt Auto Show is in full swing and busting at the seams with both fantastical and nightmarish cars. With that in mind, we were inspired to create the 'In Your Dreams' episode. Whether it's a lavish sedan you're unlikely to ever see on the road--let alone have the chance to drive--or a misshapen oddity you'd hate to meet in a dark alley, these are the vehicles that play tricks on your mind.

On today's show we look at the transformation of one of Europe's worst cars into one of its most efficient and the sedan you better get before it's gone for good. Plus, our features this week: In the Garage with the Lincoln MKT, a DIY AutoGadget with a heavenly touch, the Blind Spot story of the week and more!
