RoAb #57 - The 'DOA' Episode

This week we look at a lineup of stories that can only be described as “dead on arrival.”  GM executives wuss out and pull the plug on a commercial featuring Sarah Palin and Tina Fey (I guess it’s full-speed ahead on “Chevy runs deep”).  Honda showcases a lineup of pimped-out CR-Zs at the SEMA show in Las Vegas (need I say more?).  The “Critical Mass” bicycle rally is critically wounded as police in Long Beach, California cite cyclists and impound their rides.  Enjoy all that and more, plus we take a look at some revolutionary aircraft in the “Blind Spot” and delve into the inner workings of the human mind with another installment of “Psy-Car-Logy.”  The birdman Colin Bird from Cars.com is this week’s special guest.

RoAb #9 - The 'Trying Too Hard' Episode

So SEMA was this week, and as has become the tradition over time, we saw a lot of over-the-top, never-gonna-happen cars. It made us think, are these guys overcompensating for something? Hmm, I smell a theme ... Perhaps this episode will be all about trying too hard.

As if to will away all bad associations, Chrysler creates a new Aston-Martin-esque logo. Meanwhile a Toyota Tacoma tries way too hard to be a middle-schooler's fantasy. Oh yeah, and two Trans-Am body kits are a little too eager to bring back the '80s. All that plus, our features this week: Blind Spot is all about creepy, fez-wearing old men, AutoGadget will ensure that you never lose your car in the parking lot again, Highway Hearsay is about new Chrysler product that's already out on the roads and more!
