So, Hannah, we're going to 21 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 3: talk about Formula one because you're preparing to go to 22 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 3: Las Vegas. We're also going to talk about hybrids. I 23 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 3: think they're the way forward. You think it's a band aid. 24 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 3: There's a lot more sort of econo boxes and grocery 25 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 3: getters that I think are really cool though in this space. 26 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 4: And then we're going to get to Audi's. 27 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 3: You just recently drove the SQ eight E Tron, that's correct, 28 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 3: and Barry has an R eight. The first car I 29 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: bought was an Audie and a for a Vant. 30 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: Those have become very collectible now and mine was a 31 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 1: two point five TDI which I loved with so stick shift, yes, obviously, yeah, 32 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: those have become desirable. 33 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 3: All right, Let's kick it off though with Formula one, 34 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 3: because I guess what you're getting ready. 35 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 4: To head out to Sin City and what do you expect. 36 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: It's going to be very interesting because when Formula one 37 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 2: in Liberty Media, which owns Formula one, entered into this 38 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: deal with the city of Las Vegas to host the race, 39 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: it seemed like a home run, like a match made 40 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 2: in heaven. I mean, it's Vegas, which of course is 41 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 2: sort of the party center of the world right now 42 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 2: and has a bunch of great professional sports team. We've 43 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: got hockey we've got NFL. We're gonna get some baseball. 44 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 4: The Bolagio win Resorts, the Sphere. 45 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 2: Oh, let's not forget the Sphere. There's so much there. 46 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 2: And the food's great, you know all. 47 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 5: Of this stuff. 48 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: There's Jean George restaurants. But the thing is, and you know, 49 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 2: Formula one's been doing great in the US, but in 50 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 2: the past month or so, it's been really weird because 51 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: ticket prices have been dropping, both ticket prices for general 52 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: entry into the Grand Prix hotel room rates have been dropping, 53 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: and it's kind of creating this feeling that maybe Vegas 54 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: bit off more than it can chew. It's possible organizers 55 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 2: sort of got a little bit too greedy with how 56 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 2: they price things, and people are just not having it. 57 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 4: That's crazy. 58 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: So if I decided, you know what, I am gonna 59 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 3: go see Formula on this weekend and skip the birth 60 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 3: of my second daughter, you think I could get tickets. 61 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: You'd have no problem getting tickets. Now, I will say, 62 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 2: you might pay like six or seven hundred dollars a 63 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 2: night for a hotel room at like the Venetian, but 64 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: that's pretty typical and it's actually far less than you 65 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: would have paid had you tried to get a room 66 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 2: a month ago or two months ago. So this is 67 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: an expensive sport and an expensive city, but compared to 68 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: what prices were listed at a month or two months ago, 69 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 2: you're gonna get a deal. And there's plenty of tickets 70 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 2: to go around. There are plenty of flights from La 71 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: to Vegas. 72 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 4: So Barry, would you when you go? 73 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, the problem with Formula one is you know, 74 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: you're in a corner, you're watching the cars go by. 75 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: It's not I know, it's very visceral and very exciting 76 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: feeling moments. 77 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 4: That's the best part. 78 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: But then you're there for another four hours and it's 79 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: a sport that's so great on television. It's very comfortable. 80 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: You really can see stuff. Everyone should go do it once. 81 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if I need to do this in Vegas. 82 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,839 Speaker 1: And the thing I'm wondering about how much of this 83 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: is specific to Las Vegas and how much of this 84 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: is just Hey, the economy is moving along, inflation is 85 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: coming down, but we're starting to slow down. When you 86 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: look at what's going on with auction prices of used cars. 87 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: Nine to eleven's ferraris whatever or even watches everything seems 88 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: that had round up in twenty and twenty one and 89 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: twenty two. It's all softening. I wonder if this is 90 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 1: a broader macro concern. 91 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: I think that's a really interesting point. And we talked 92 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: about this Ferrari last week, this Ferrari two to fifty 93 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 2: gto that was going to go on sale. And to 94 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: your point, Barry, yes, it's sold this week for almost 95 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: fifty two million dollars, but that was actually far less 96 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 2: than arms Sotheby's had hoped to get for the car, 97 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 2: and they were saying, you know, in excess of sixty million. 98 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 2: The hammer price on that before I was actually forty seven. So, yes, 99 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: this is a very expensive car, but relative to where 100 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: it was supposed to be quote unquote, it's really down. 101 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: And to your point, very I think this Yolo economy 102 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: is over. 103 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, we saw this week Bloomberg put out a story 104 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 3: prices for Rolex and Pateech Philippe watches. You know, the 105 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 3: ultra luxury super high end watches on the Bloomberg subdial 106 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 3: index have come crashing down. They were off one point 107 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: eight percent last month to the lowest level since twenty 108 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 3: twenty one. Do you think that's the problem with F 109 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 3: one or is the sport to boring? The engines aren't 110 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 3: big enough, No one passes. 111 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 2: Here's a problem, Max Verstappan, that's a problem. He wins 112 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: all the time, He's already clinched the title. He's won 113 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 2: like seventeen of last twenty races. It's pretty predictable at 114 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 2: this point. Even second place is pretty predictable. And the 115 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 2: other thing to Barry's point about the TV view, this 116 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 2: race starts at ten pm Pacific time, which means you're 117 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: gonna have to be a diehard. 118 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 4: Fan whoa watch it. It really is one in the 119 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 4: morning East Coast time. 120 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 2: I did not many people who are going to be 121 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: up at one am in New York. 122 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 5: I don't think to watch this race. 123 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: You can always watch it the next day on the replay. 124 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 125 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm a huge fan of Moto GP, as 126 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 3: you know, because it's a far better sport. I mean, 127 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 3: there's a lot of passing, there's a lot more strategy, 128 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 3: you have tons of different winners, and I just have 129 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 3: a subscription to MotoGP dot com and then I watch 130 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 3: it after the race is over because it was inevitably 131 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 3: in Indonesia, and then it doesn't come on until you know, 132 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 3: like eight in the morning on a Sunday. 133 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 4: I'm not up at that point. 134 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 3: I think it could be a bunch of different factors 135 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: from an economy that's slowing down to max for staff 136 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 3: and winning every time. But are we still going to 137 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 3: see like is Brad Pitt gonna go? Is like Puff 138 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 3: Daddy gonna go? You know? Are all the celebrities gonna 139 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 3: be there and having like fifteen thousand dollars dinners? 140 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 2: Yes? 141 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 5: I think so, maybe more interesting. 142 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 2: Than Brad Pitt. David Beckham will be there. I don't 143 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 2: know if you've seen the latest. 144 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 5: Beckham nothing more. Yeah, I thought it was so good. 145 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: I mean I'm a big Victoria Beckham fan after that. 146 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: But yeah, Shack will be there, There will be celebrities there. 147 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: It's going to be fun no matter what. How can 148 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: you not have fun in Las Vegas? And I will 149 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: say organizers are saying that they're expecting record revenue regardless 150 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: of anything. They're on track to quote unquote sell out 151 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: of tickets. This is what they're telling us. So it's 152 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 2: still going to be great. It's going to be great fun. 153 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: Anyone who's going should really pack their coats though it's 154 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: going to be pretty. 155 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: Cold in Las Vegas. 156 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 5: Ten o'clock in the desert in November is cold, true desert. 157 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah. If you go to Vegas and you can't 158 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 4: have fun, you're not doing it. 159 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: Right. 160 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 4: Do you like Vegas?

Let's go. 177 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 3: I'd like, you can't do that anywhere in the desert, right, Vegas? 178 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: Sign up? 179 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 5: Vegas? That all counts as Vegas. Though, Yeah, I guess 180 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 5: this is a lot more than just the strip. 181 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 4: I mean totally agree. 182 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: Driving out to the Hoover Dams really cool, and I 183 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 2: do think sort of dusty hotels where Elvis played and 184 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: Sinatra are really cool. 185 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 5: There's amazing off roading out there. All of that. 186 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: To me, it counts as a quote unquote Vegas when 187 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: I go, oh, there's fabulous shopping to. 188 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 4: A right change. 189 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 3: I don't go to casinos at all. I don't hang 190 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 3: out on the strip. I don't gamble. 191 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: That's the part of Vegas. I hate everything around that 192 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: is really interesting. 193 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, you want to wake up married to somebody you 194 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 3: have no idea her last name. 195 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,239 Speaker 4: You know, apologies to my wife. 196 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: Your pregnant wife. You're very pregnant. 197 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 3: Let's move on to well and her favorite car is 198 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 3: the Volvo XC ninety T eight, which is a hybrid. 199 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 3: You know, you can go twenty miles or more on 200 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 3: the battery alone, and so for doing things around town, 201 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 3: dropping kids off at school, going to the grocery store 202 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 3: no problem, and then you can go on longer trips 203 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 3: because it has a gas engine that kicks in. It's 204 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: beautiful design. I have to agree with her on. 205 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: That, especially that interior. 206 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: And Barry, you sent me and Hannah an email this 207 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 3: morning about a Toyota Camry that's only going to be 208 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 3: so right. 209 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: Right, they're giving up the gas. Only listen. The crazy 210 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: thing about Toyota is they have this massive lead in 211 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: hybrid technology, and you were waiting for what they're going 212 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: to do next. Then you know they kind of let 213 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: Tesla eat their lunch. But what Toyota is telling us 214 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: is the immediate future, the next decade is going to 215 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: be hybrid. 216 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: And obviously Tesla doesn't have any hybrid vehicles. 217 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 4: They're fully electric. 218 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 3: That annoys me because I can never find a place 219 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 3: to charge and I like to have a little Moto vibes. Hannah, 220 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 3: you don't think that hybrids are the way forward though. 221 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 2: I am not a fan of hybrids, just because I 222 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: tend to be a purist. I want to go all in, 223 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 2: all or nothing, and I love the of course, the 224 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 2: quick performance of electric vehicles, and I love my own. 225 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 5: Personal internal combustion cars. 226 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: So hybrids have always seemed to me to just be 227 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: like halfway but nowhere anywhere. 228 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 5: Who cares? 229 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 2: If you know, Toyota was making a Prius because also 230 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 2: BMW was making the I eight, and. 231 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 4: Well, I love the I eight, dude. 232 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 3: The I eight and the I three to me were 233 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 3: when I first understood why it's cool to have a 234 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 3: range extender motor right because they were fully electric vehicles, 235 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 3: but they just had a little I think it was 236 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 3: a one three three cylinder as like a utility pack. 237 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 3: It's like bringing along a backpack. It's like being a prepper. 238 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 3: You know, you always have an option if you need it. 239 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: My wife's Panama Hybrid. We drove to Connecticut this weekend. 240 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: We got nearly forty miles a gallon on the way there. 241 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: We exhausted most of the electric for that range, but 242 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: when you drop your right foot, you still have over 243 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: five hundred horse power, and that car really goes when 244 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: you wanted to go. So to me, it's the best 245 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: of both worlds. Almost forty miles a gallon on one 246 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: hundred mile trip into the woods in Connecticut, and somewhat 247 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: less on the way home without any electric. 248 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 3: You know, I always say there's no replacement for displacement, 249 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 3: but I think batteries might be that replacement. I'm driving 250 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 3: right now a Kia Sorrento PHV. And aside from all 251 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 3: the other stuff that's impressive about it, and there's a 252 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 3: ton of stuff, it's got a locking center diff it's 253 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: got this really cool technology where when you put your 254 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 3: turn signal on in your center display, you can see 255 00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 3: your blind spot, and in. 256 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: Fact, all of the Hyundai Kias do that. You signal 257 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: right and it shows up in your tyme, and you 258 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: signal left and it shows up in your left dial. 259 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: That should be a standard technology across the whole. 260 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 5: Industry and any luxury automotive. 261 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 4: Okay, well, but for Akia, I think it's really cool. 262 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 4: I mean, for. 263 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 3: Akia, it's got torque vectoring, all wheel drive. That's not 264 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 3: something you expect when you're buying a Korean car. But 265 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: I thought the engine was more substantial than it was 266 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: when I first started driving it. 267 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 4: I hadn't read the specs. 268 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 3: I popped open the hood and I saw it's got 269 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 3: a one point six leader in line four. Like that's 270 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 3: a tiny little motor, but it still has two hundred 271 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: and sixty horse power two hundred and sixty pound feet 272 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 3: of torque for you know, fifty thousand dollars for the 273 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 3: fully loaded, like most luxurious addition, that's pretty peppy. 274 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: It's a lot of truck for the money. And look 275 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: the way every one of these new manufacturers that are 276 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: trying to gain traction or expand their footprint find an 277 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: audience is by offering a lot of value for the money. 278 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: Think back to the way did this forty years ago, 279 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: or the way Toyota did it sixty years ago. 280 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: So, Hannah, do you ever drive like a Kia? Because 281 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 3: I always think, you know, you're the one who's constantly 282 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 3: in a culin in, But do you ever drive like 283 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 3: a Korean car? 284 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 5: This is true. 285 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: Typically no, I will openly say we do not cover 286 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 2: typically Kia at Bloomberg Pursuits. However, I did recently drive 287 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: the Kia EV nine, which is their big electric. 288 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 3: Suv I want to try. 289 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 5: I really really liked it. 290 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: I was surprised at how beautiful and well thought out 291 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 2: it was. I actually really would love to go visit 292 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: the factory in South Korea. I'm going to try to 293 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 2: do that next year because Kia is really making a 294 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 2: play to elevate themselves so that they could potentially have 295 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 2: shoppers cross shopping between like Volvo or a land Rover 296 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: into Kia or even Audi. And I don't think that's 297 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 2: out of the question based on what I've seen. We 298 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 2: joke about it, like, typically I wouldn't cover it, but 299 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 2: the limited amount of Kiya products that I have seen 300 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: and driven I actually am pretty impressed by And let's 301 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: not forget this is a company that also makes Genesis. 302 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: Is about to bring that up. Kia is owned by Hondi. 303 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: Genesis is their version of Lexus versus Tyota doing. 304 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 5: They know what they're doing. 305 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: One question, though, do you read the new Kia logo 306 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: as nine inch nails? 307 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 4: I love. I love the way it reminds me of 308 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 4: nine inch nails. That's hilarious. I'm on board with that. 309 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: And I, by the way, I think that the new 310 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 3: logo really helped them transition their brand a little bit 311 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 3: from being kind of a bargain basement, you know, Korean econobox, 312 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 3: to being something that. 313 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 4: People really would cross shop with. A Range Rover. 314 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 3: I mean, the tail you ride is a beautiful car. 315 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: I don't love the powertrain, but the logo I think 316 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 3: helps a lot. It looks really cool. 317 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 5: I agree. 318 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: I'm with you about it's an attitude of beautiful hospitality. 319 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: And I know that sounds like a PR line, but 320 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 2: it actually is true that some of their vehicles really 321 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 2: have this beautiful sense of a welcome environment. 322 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 3: We should throw in a V eight once in a while. 323 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 3: They need to make a big halo car. 324 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: There are no more V eights coming out, and they're 325 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: certainly coming out of Asia. 326 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 4: For mass production. 327 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 3: I just think they need to make a halo car 328 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 3: so that people can then feel okay buying the lower 329 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 3: end models. 330 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: That is so old school marketing. That's just not how 331 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: it's done. We're gonna give you a lot of car 332 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: or truck for the money. Yes, it's only a V six. 333 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 4: But you can tow. 334 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: You could stick six people in the car, you could 335 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: load it up with luggage, and it's not going to 336 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: cloas you an arm and a leg. That's the value 337 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: proposition for these cars versus the cars that we really 338 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: have grown up loving, the BMW's, the Mercedes, the much 339 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: bigger and more expensive cars. 340 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm just saying like, if Audi had never made 341 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 3: the quatro and one races with it, if they had 342 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 3: never made the R eight that everybody drools over in 343 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 3: fifty shades of Gray, I don't know that we'd be buying, 344 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 3: you know, the. 345 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 4: Q three either. 346 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 3: And by the way, speaking of that, both of you 347 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 3: have a connection to Audi, because Hannah, you are test 348 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 3: driving some version of their e Tron bar. You of 349 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: course have the RA. But Hannah, first, tell us about 350 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 3: the ev that you drove. 351 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: Okay, so yesterday I drove the s Q eight e Tron, 352 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: which is basically it's sort of a higher performance version 353 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: of the Q eight, which is a five passenger suv. 354 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 2: It's all electric, starts at about ninety thousand dollars. 355 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 5: And it was beautiful. 356 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 2: The You know, Audi has been a little bit behind 357 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 2: when it comes to offering electric vehicles, and they're making 358 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 2: they're trying to make up for lost time, and so 359 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: anything with E Tron at the end is there electric offering. 360 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 2: The SQ eight, despite its confusing name, was really nice. 361 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 2: It was beautifully appointed inside, it was as quiet, actually 362 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 2: proven by Audi, as quiet as an a sedan, Really 363 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 2: nice balanced. It's heavy, it's like a six thousand pound suv, 364 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 2: so you do feel that a bit. 365 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 4: Some people like it heavy. Don't forget if you have. 366 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 5: To make a turn, there's no judgment. 367 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: I like it. 368 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 4: I like a big heavy cruiser. 369 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 5: We love that. 370 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 2: We love that, and this did feel really nicely insulated 371 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 2: and solid. And I actually have a friend who's been 372 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 2: looking for an electric suv, and I instantly message her 373 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 2: and said, I think you're really gonna love it. 374 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: A good looking truck. 375 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 3: I drove also the Q eight Etron, not the S version, 376 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 3: but I'll say that I was disappointed that they use 377 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 3: the Q eight Moniker because I think the Q eight 378 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 3: is one of the best designs Audi has come out 379 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 3: with in. 380 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 4: At least a decade. 381 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 3: It's a head turner whenever I see a real Q 382 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 3: eight on the road, and the e Tron version is 383 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 3: not a real Q eight, it doesn't look as cool. 384 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 3: It's more invisible, like you can easily overlook the Etron version, 385 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 3: whereas the full fat gas Q eight it's so hulking 386 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 3: and muscular that you can't overlook it. But it is 387 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 3: definitely solid. That's the word I would use for it, 388 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 3: Like it is a product that you feel like it's 389 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 3: over engineered and is not going to break down. 390 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 4: What do you think Bury about Audis. 391 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: I mean, you have obviously the Halo car, but what 392 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 3: do you think about the brand and the other vehicles. 393 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 4: You know, it's full time all wheel. 394 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: Drive, and if you're in the part of the country 395 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: where you're very much dealing with weather or you're off road, 396 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: they're great for that. They're notoriously expensive to repair, they're 397 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: not the lowest cost maintenance. Comparatively, you buy a Honda Toyota, 398 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: you put gas and occasionally oil into it, you're good 399 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: for a bajillion miles. Some the German cars tend to 400 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: be a little more finicky my experience with oudi's and BMW's, 401 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: you have to build a little bit of a repair buffer, 402 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: especially if you're looking for a thirty thousand mile car 403 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: like I know you're hunting for. They're not terrible, it's 404 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: not you know, you speak to people with you know, 405 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: British cars or even some of the older Ferraris and 406 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: you're writing big checks to your mechanic. But they're great cars. 407 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: They're well designed, they hold up well, and I know 408 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: lots of people who have Q five's with you know, 409 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: two hundred thousand miles on them. 410 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: Well, I think I have to say just a little bit. 411 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 2: I think that German engineering has a pretty good track 412 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 2: record for sure my ability, and it's a little unfair 413 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 2: to compare them to British and Italian engineering agreed. 414 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 3: I never had a problem. I had an Audi for 415 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 3: a long time, never had a problem with it. 416 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 4: If you have a repair, it'll cost me a long time. 417 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 4: Never had a problem with my. 418 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: Sl was bulletproof until you had to replace the coils. 419 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: You had to do something, and it's not an inexpensive repair. 420 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 4: I just brace yourself. 421 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 2: I'm sensing that Barry will always choose the practical option, 422 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: the very solid practical. 423 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 5: You know, you don't like THERA. 424 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: It's totally practical, like the six convertible manual, the most practical. 425 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 4: No, I don't think so, dude. 426 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 3: He has a C two and he bought a nine 427 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 3: to eleven that he sent to be converted into an EV. 428 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. 429 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: So in the middle of that, that's a fun project. 430 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: These are not cheap cars there, but they are if 431 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: you're buying them twenty five years old. That's why I 432 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: say you have to have a reasonable repair. 433 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 4: Do you have to set aside a budget? 434 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 3: So I, by the way, I wanted as longtime listeners 435 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 3: will know, I really wanted to get BMW seven sixty 436 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 3: to replace my wife's Volvo, and she has basically said 437 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 3: no way, Jose, but she is willing to get an 438 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 3: X five and so I want them fifty with the 439 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 3: twin turbo V eight and the ZF transmission. I was 440 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 3: looking at Savage Geese on YouTube and they have a 441 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 3: review of it, and they were like, listen, if something 442 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 3: goes wrong with any of the air suspenders on each corner, 443 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 3: eighteen hundred dollars. 444 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: That happened with my brother, and it was much more 445 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: than that his seventh six. 446 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 3: If something goes wrong with the transmission, you know you're 447 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 3: looking at five thousand dollars repair.
