EP273 – They Don’t Make Them Like They Used To

This episode has full video on the YouTube channel @HardParking

Have you done the “Tesla Challenge"? Chances are, “No”. This is a made up challenge of seeing how many traffic lights you can go without seeing a Tesla. How many Tesla’s are on the road in the United States?

A man was arrested for vandalizing as many as 6 Tesla’s causing over $21,000 in damages but was NOT charged by county attorney Mary Moriarty, yet she did charge a 19 year old first-time offender for allegedly keying a co-workers vehicle (non Tesla) upwards of $7,000 in damages.

How disciplined are you on social media when a friend or colleague makes a post you fundamentally disagree with? What is the real deal with the Trump administration threatening to remove Harvard University’s “tax-exempt” status? The All-In Podcast covered this discussion and Jhae plays some of the opinions and responds to them in this episode.

What is the real deal about the popular phrase “They don’t make them like they used to”?

How close are we really to seeing the next generation of the Honda / Acura NSX?
