Strap in for a wild ride with rally enthusiasts Andy and Mercedes Lilienthal, with Crankshaft Culture, as they take us behind the scenes of beginning their preparations for the grueling Alcan 5000 winter rally. With a no-holds-barred approach, they reveal what it takes to conquer a 5000-mile gauntlet in the grip of Arctic temperatures, sharing the pulse-pounding excitement and the meticulous preparation needed for such an extreme motorsport event. The Lilienthal's also give us a glimpse into their rugged journey piloting the new Ineos Grenadier SUV, designed to withstand the rally's punishing conditions. This episode is a celebration of endurance, resilience, and the fierce spirit required to thrive amidst the relentless chill of winter racing.
Cruising down memory lane with our feature - This Week In Automotive History - , we reflect on the monumental shifts in the automotive industry, from the colossal wheels of the MAC truck to the heartrending goodbye to Pontiac. We remember the Chrysler crisis and the heroics of Lee Iacocca, and relive the spark of innovation with GM's EV1 and the electric revolution that's accelerating today. Our discussion veers into the strategic moves of VinFast and the updated U.S. tax credits reshaping the EV landscape. So buckle up—this isn't just a podcast; it's a time machine with a turbocharged engine, inviting you to rediscover the revolutions that drive us forward.
