Get ready to unravel some of the chaos surrounding the UAW strike and its impact on major automobile giants like Ford, General Motors, and Stallantis in our latest installment. We try to understand the massive financial implications linked with stopping production at Ford's Kentucky plant, generating a whopping $25 billion annually. We’ll also shed light on the precarious situation of smaller suppliers grappling with the sudden pause on 'just in time inventory', and the looming threat of layoffs. And, if that's not enough, could Ford could shift all its manufacturing to Mexico as a potential countermeasure to the strike?
In the latter half of the show, we have the pleasure of hosting Randy Bortcharding, the mastermind behind Painthouse, a custom car building enterprise. Randy will share his insights on the finesse required in painting cars, along with the necessity of safeguarding metal from rust before painting. We'll also unpack the distinct nuances of vehicles like the 65 El Camino and the intriguing prospect of a two-door Malibu wagon.
In our feature segment, we’ll debunk some common myths about car tires, explore the advent of airless tire technology, and discuss the significance of specialized tires designed for electric vehicles. With so much to learn, you wouldn't want to miss a minute!
