1
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Do you want to have a guard doing the intro

2
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: like the theme music's rolling? Do you want to kind of.

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 2: Welcome to the program, the problem program? What's that program?

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 1: Oh?

5
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 2: Go grab?

6
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 1: Do you want to have another guy doing the intro?

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 1: Welcome to the show? Jesus Christ, this is why you

8
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: don't do it? How are you?

9
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 3: Yeah?

10
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: Great, so much better now.

11
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure this banana bread's going down to treat.

12
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you for buying that for me. That's all right,

13
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 2: thanks to the left. That's the first sweet thing I've

14
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 2: had for a few weeks.

15
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: In your mouth to life, that's a lie. Shit's been hectic,

16
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: hasn't it. At the start of the year. I've got love.

17
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm so boring because I've been so busy,

18
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: yet I'm just so bored at the same time. Yeah,

19
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,919
Speaker 1: there's just nothing, nothing great. That's a lot of exciting

20
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: stuff coming up.

21
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that's the feedback I get from people who

22
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 2: listen to your radio.

23
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: Shit, that's the feedback I get from your wife. You're

24
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:05,559
Speaker 1: that you're very boring. She's like, he whispers, engineering things

25
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: in the throes of passion.

26
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 2: It's okay. Do you want a square roon?

27
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: You just whispers the weirdest inane thing. How good is

28
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: the miracle of flight? China the Chinese Chicken? What nothing?

29
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: It's a song by smash Mouth. You just come back

30
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: from the world's newest third world country, Los Angeles. That

31
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: is so true. What a hole? Yeah?

32
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 2: For how woke California is?

33
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 4: It is?

34
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: It is a grim place at the moment.

35
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 4: So I was over there and we'll chat about this

36
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 4: shortly in the States to talk to drive the new

37
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 4: Lexus GX. But after that drive, I went to Los

38
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 4: Angeles to film some extra content. And while Arizona, where

39
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 4: we went for GX, is absolutely stunning, amazing, and you know,

40
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 4: it's just cool.

41
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: It's just a cool spot.

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 4: Los Angeles has really just descended into San Francisco.

43
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: My goodness, that is a joint you did not want

44
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 2: to go near.

45
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 1: So it's the mecca for the holy homeless.

46
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, but just very quickly.

47
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 4: It is sad what it has become because not only

48
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 4: is it very expensive, and that is just for a

49
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 4: US resident. It is very very expensive if you're going

50
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 4: there as an Australian because that dollar sucks. But if

51
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 4: you're over there and you don't have a job or

52
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 4: you don't really own much money. I just don't understand

53
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 4: how anyone's surviving. And you can see why there are

54
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 4: so many homeless people, but they just keep jacking the cost.

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: Of everything up.

56
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 4: They're pushing everyone into these expensive evs like it is

57
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 4: just a bit of a disaster.

58
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: So Webby, what always sort of like throws me is

59
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: in different states in America, there's different tax laws and

60
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: different healthcare systems as well. So if you live in Texas,

61
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 1: for instance, you kind of can get a better deal

62
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: on things like medical and tax benefits and stuff like

63
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,399
Speaker 1: that where he's in La Oh Jesus.

64
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: But it's even down to stuff like fuel.

65
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 4: So in Phoenix, we were staying just outside Phoenix, fuel

66
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 4: was like two dollars eighty US a gallon. In Los

67
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 4: Angeles it was closer to five dollars a gallon. So

68
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 4: I just I really don't understand how you can have

69
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 4: such a discrepancy when this joint is, you know, one

70
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 4: thousand kilometers away here at least you know it is

71
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 4: similar in terms of fuel. It's not going to be

72
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 4: dollars of difference. So yeah, I just think it's it's

73
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 4: a bit of a broken country at the moment, So

74
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 4: I'll be interested to see how they fix all of that.

75
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's not not a good situation.

76
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: I've been divided for a long time too, and I

77
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: don't think it hasn't gotten better at all. Despite whether

78
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: you're a Trump guy, whether you're a who's the sleepy

79
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: old man, the demension guy Joe Biden, whether you're a

80
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: Biden guy, I'm.

81
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 2: Waiting for that guy.

82
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: It's just like die mid press conference.

83
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 2: He genuinely has no idea where he is.

84
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 4: They got him the other day because this is two

85
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 4: into a politics podcast, but I watched a feverit and

86
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 4: news while I was over there. They got him for

87
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 4: hoarding classified documents, which is exactly what they got Trump for,

88
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: and one of the people that was investigating said something

89
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 4: along the lines of.

90
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 2: He's a well meaning elderly man with a bad memory.

91
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 2: And I'm like, you've just said that about your president,

92
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 2: and one of the guys in the way are Yeah,

93
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 2: I just craped my pants.

94
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 1: Anyway.

95
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,799
Speaker 4: So yeah, we'll talk more about the LEXUSJX shortly, and

96
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 4: I might even I'll touch on it now. Just some

97
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 4: of the stuff that we did outside of the GX

98
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: launch in Los Angeles. We drove the Twitter rad Fall Prime,

99
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 4: which is fantastic. So that's basically the rad Fall that

100
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 4: we get, but it's a plug in hybrid and it

101
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 4: does zero to one hundred and under six seconds.

102
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 1: She is phenomenal, tchnique.

103
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 4: Really efficient, very easy to manage and drive. We also

104
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 4: drove the Keya Tell You Ride the x Pro, which

105
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 4: is the off road version on All Terrains.

106
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: Almost got shot by a lady.

107
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: Well.

108
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: I just presumed I was where it was going to

109
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 2: escalate that this was American American dotter pretty much.

110
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 4: She came and started yelling at us for using the

111
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 4: filming on this land that she claimed private America.

112
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: Get on my land, Hey, stop pouring the kids shoes.

113
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: But I asked her, so whose land is it?

114
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 4: Just because I'll go ask permission if it's not okay,

115
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 4: because I was genuinely like, well, I don't want to

116
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 4: film here if it's someone land and she goes, I

117
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 4: think it's the guy up there, and I said ok

118
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 4: I said do you have permission to be here?

119
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: Because she was walking her dogs on it.

120
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 4: And she's like yeah, And I'm like, but you don't

121
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 4: know who owns the land. So I was like, all right, cool, Like,

122
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 4: you just look like you probably hit the pipe fairly frequently,

123
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 4: so I'm just going to get out of here before

124
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 4: you come back and shoot me.

125
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: I would have asked for a sweet deal.

126
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 4: But yeah, So I did that and also drove a

127
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 4: rivianah yeah, yeah, yeah to the suv and that ended

128
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 4: up being an absolute disaster. When it came to charging

129
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 4: as part of the review, I thought, let's just shoot

130
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 4: a bit of content on what it's like to charge

131
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 4: a car in a state like California that is fully

132
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 4: into EVS and outside of Norway is one of the

133
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 4: more progressive sort of electric feed They kind.

134
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: Of led the way with that sort of stuff. They

135
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: really championed it.

136
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 4: And I genuinely thought it was just going to be

137
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 4: like a five minute video and everything was going to

138
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 4: be great. It ended up being an absolute saga. It

139
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 4: took us so long to actually charge this car, as in,

140
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 4: find a charger that wasn't that didn't have a queue

141
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 4: of ten fifteen cars.

142
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was incredible watching that footage, unbelievable. I was

143
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: blown away.

144
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 4: So yeah, I'll have a video on that. Will chat

145
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 4: about that in a bit more detail later.

146
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: All Right, We thought we should talk about emissions laws.

147
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 1: Do you want to start with that? Do you want

148
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: to talk about emissions laws? Because they're sort of coming

149
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: up and a few things have been and now it's

150
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: now I'm going to go through my dumbass kind of

151
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: understanding of this and then you can throw me over

152
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: the coals and just tell me where I'm kind of right,

153
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: because basically all wrong, Yeah, all right, all wrong, very

154
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: much wrong. So Paul wanted to bring up emissions standards,

155
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: and so I thought to myself, here we go. He's

156
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: going to have like a little Pavais moment of I'm

157
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: going to have an editorial. From what I can understand

158
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: is you lower emissions, you lower the carbon footprint. Right now,

159
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: Europe has been, I guess, leading the way on this.

160
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: They kind of change the game when it comes to

161
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: emissions full stop. And that includes the current industry. So

162
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: the difference between Europe and Australia is Europe is very

163
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: much mandated by laws. Australia is, well, we have these

164
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: things called voluntary emissions targets. Now, from what I can

165
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: get is we're not really accountable to even hit these

166
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: targets at all. And I think in the last three years,

167
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: we haven't. I think it's gotten worse. So we sell

168
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: heaps of view, heaps of four wheel drives. The one

169
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: thing I will say is when it comes to what

170
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: causes high emissions, so Australia has really dirty fuel on

171
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: the world market, on the world sort of scheme of

172
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: it all, we've got dirty fuel which they're fixing. Well, yes,

173
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: that's kind of part of this whole thing. So we

174
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: love our utes, we love our four wheel drives, and

175
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: so this is going to make it tougher when it

176
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: comes to new laws coming into force. What exactly was

177
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: announced this week, I'm a bit confused at So all

178
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: new cars, SUVs, light commercial vehicles, basically anything that's introduced

179
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: in Australia in September next year, so that's twenty twenty

180
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: five has to go by the new Euro six D standard.

181
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: Previous existing models will have to hit that by twenty

182
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 1: twenty eight. And that's to comply. Half the current models

183
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: we've got on sale right now are Euro five So

184
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: Euro six D is even stricter. Yep. With that, you

185
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: don't just consider the type of car, You've got to

186
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: consider the type of petrol that's going into it. Now,

187
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: this is the weird thing. This is what I couldn't

188
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: quite get, which you can get to in a second.

189
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: But I know that we're going to be reducing the

190
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: amount of sultware in our petrol, and I think this

191
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: seems like it's going to be affecting octane ninety five.

192
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 4: So yeah, basically, and ninety one is the worst defender

193
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 4: at the moment. If you look at ninety one rong

194
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 4: fuel that we have in Australia, it is amongst the

195
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 4: worst in the world for sulfur content, and that is

196
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 4: why a lot of modern engines require ninety five or

197
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 4: ninety eight ROND fuel to run.

198
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 2: So a lot of European vehicles that are sold in.

199
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 4: Australia have minimums because if you feed at ninety one

200
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 4: it will basically destroy the engine. So yeah, that that

201
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 4: is what they're looking at fixing. And they already fixed diesel.

202
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 4: So the sulfur content in diesel is now sort of

203
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 4: in amongst first world countries, but our unleaded fuel is

204
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 4: amongst the worst in the world, and that's what they're

205
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 4: looking at fixing.

206
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: That's also the.

207
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 4: One that they claim will only increase the cost of

208
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 4: fuel by a cent or two cents a lead, which

209
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 4: I just think is absolute nonsense.

210
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 2: It'll be much more than that.

211
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: So this is and that includes taking sulfur and stuff

212
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: like that at or the rubbish.

213
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 4: Ye.

214
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: So basically what this I feel like, what this is

215
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: going to sort of packed is things like youtes heavy

216
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:08,439
Speaker 1: duty kind of commercial vehicles, utes apparently like Niche sports cars.

217
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: I don't know what falls under Niche sports cars by

218
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: the way, because yeah, anyway, it depends what you go with.

219
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: But apparently some budget hashback models as well. Yep, so

220
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: that don't really have the Euro six dy variants. That's

221
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: sort of a big question will they survive? But yeah,

222
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: where am I at with that? Good?

223
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: Okay, now just give you one sect of triple checks,

224
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 2: I think. So that's all sort of pretty much there.

225
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: Just the sort of nuances of it.

226
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 4: The way that it will work is manufacturers will have

227
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 4: limits per vehicle that they have to meet. So this

228
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 4: is average CO two emissions per kilometer across their vehicle fleets.

229
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 4: So if you think of let's say Ford for example,

230
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 4: and you've got all of the vehicles that they sell,

231
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 4: basically they're going to say that let's say your limit

232
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 4: is two hundred grams per kilometer or something like that.

233
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 2: There's plucking that out of thin air.

234
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 4: If their average sales mainly rangeer in Everest, which they are,

235
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 4: what they'll need to do is basically figure out what

236
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:20,599
Speaker 4: amount above that average they're contributing to the environment for

237
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 4: the vehicles that they sell, and then they will be

238
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 4: penalized for that.

239
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: So would they be inclined to be interested because they

240
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: don't really just said they don't really have many evs.

241
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: They've got the here in Australia, they've got the Mark three,

242
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: the Mustang Mark three. I think they've got like some

243
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: sort of a transit van too. Does that mean I

244
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: know they're working on like a small EV, but does

245
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: that mean they'll be introducing more hybrids and evs?

246
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 4: Well, exactly because logically you don't want to be paying

247
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 4: these fines. But what happens then, and this is what's

248
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 4: happened in Europe as well, car companies like Tesla that

249
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 4: only make electric vehicles will get credits. So what you

250
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 4: can then do is sell your credits to another car company,

251
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 4: so Forward can buy credits from Tesla as they're fine.

252
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 4: And this is how Tesla built its factory in Europe

253
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 4: they basically had Alfa Romeo or the Stalantes group paying

254
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 4: their credits to Tesla. Then Tesla used that money to

255
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 4: create a factory. So that is the sort of gist

256
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 4: of how it's going to work. Now, there are a

257
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 4: number of problems with this though, So.

258
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: One thing I will say is who created that rule?

259
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this is what they're doing to try

260
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 4: and get people into cleaner vehicles, which I get it,

261
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 4: it makes sense, but to put it into context, passenger

262
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 4: cars and light commercial vehicles only contribute around ten percent

263
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 4: a little bit more than ten percent of Australia's total emissions.

264
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 4: So they are focusing very heavily on this one industry

265
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 4: and it doesn't seem they're putting much effort into anything else.

266
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 4: So the problem with this is that at the moment,

267
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 4: you really don't have the ability for people to buy

268
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 4: the vehicles that they need to be able to meet

269
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 4: this requirement. Putting this in from twenty twenty five, if

270
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: you're a tradee there is not an electric ute. Well

271
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 4: there is an electric ute, but it's rubbish. It's the LDV.

272
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 4: So you're saying to them, okay, well, now you're forcing

273
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 4: a car company to go Okay, well we're going to

274
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 4: increase the price of this car because a car company

275
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 4: isn't just going to take up all those costs. They're

276
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 4: going to pass them on to the.

277
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: Consumerw okay, so and they'll use that I mean that

278
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: extra cost is credits right.

279
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean they're passing it on.

280
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 4: There's no way a car company is going to go, okay,

281
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 4: well we'll just absorb the cost of all this and

282
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 4: just continue selling cars. They'll either withdraw a car from

283
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 4: sale if they don't have a better engine, or alternatively,

284
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 4: they will charge more for the car knowing that it's

285
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 4: the only engine they have available. And you, as as

286
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 4: a person in Australia that is buying a car, are

287
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 4: either going to be forced buy an expensive EV which

288
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 4: is what they are at the moment compared to internal combustion.

289
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 2: Cars, or alternatively, you're.

290
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 4: Going to have to pay more for an internal combustion

291
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 4: car that doesn't meet these requirements. Now, the counter to

292
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 4: that is that these car companies sell vehicles like the

293
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 4: Ranger and the high Lux in countries that already have

294
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 4: these requirements. So there are engines they already produce in

295
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 4: other countries that meet these requirements. They will eventually bring

296
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 4: those two Australia because obviously they don't want.

297
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 2: To be fine.

298
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 4: But the extra cost of all of that is going

299
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 4: to get passed on to the consumers. So where they

300
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 4: say here that Australians will save around thousand dollars per

301
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 4: vehicle per year in fuel costs, who's saying that the

302
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 4: government is absolute bullshit. There is no way it is

303
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 4: going to I mean, these engines, yes, they are more efficient,

304
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 4: but they're not going to save your thousand dollars a year.

305
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 4: Then they further go on to claim that the average

306
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 4: new vehicle purchase purchaser in twenty twenty eight claim to

307
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 4: be looking at a saving of five seven hundred and

308
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 4: ten over five years. It is absolute nonsense. There is

309
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 4: no way you are going to be saving that much

310
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 4: more fuel. In addition to that, the extra cost of

311
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 4: the vehicle, which is going to be passed on to

312
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 4: you as a consumer, is not going to offset the

313
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 4: fuel saving either. So I just think that it's a

314
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 4: great idea. Yes, we need to make the automotive industry greener,

315
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 4: et cetera, et cetera, but at the moment, you don't

316
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 4: have vehicles for sale that are suitable for this if

317
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 4: you have a look at what Australians are buying, which

318
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 4: is utes and SUVs, and if you have a look

319
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 4: in the States as well. I mean their biggest seller

320
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 4: is the fine fifty huge, an enormous vehicle.

321
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: It's weird too because you're looking at I know this

322
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: sounds like a really basic thing to say, but I'm

323
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: used to it now. When you look at like the

324
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: consumption of what Europe are doing and how they're using

325
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: their cars, it's a lot different to how we use

326
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: our cars. And also what we consider, say a big

327
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: family car, to what Europe considers a big family car.

328
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: A fucking Volkswagen Golf over there is a family car. Yeah.

329
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 4: The issue is they're parroting all this stuff out of

330
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 4: Europe and it has absolutely no relation to what we

331
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 4: do when they go on a road trip over there. Yes,

332
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 4: they might travel longer distances, but you're traveling across built

333
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 4: up areas, and it makes sense that you need to

334
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 4: not be emitting as much through towns and cities across here.

335
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 4: If you're traveling longer distances, you're in the middle of nowhere.

336
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 4: A small vehicle doesn't make any sense. A small vehicle

337
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 4: doesn't toe. A small vehicle doesn't do a lot of

338
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 4: the things that the Australians that need to travel longer

339
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 4: distances are doing. So what you're doing now is penalizing

340
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 4: people who need to travel longer distances. In addition to that,

341
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 4: you then need to have a think about you've got

342
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 4: people that live in the country that is long distance driving,

343
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 4: but then in the cities you've also got people who

344
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 4: live further out because they can't afford to live closer

345
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 4: to the city. So these are people that are going

346
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 4: to be traveling longer distances by virtue it.

347
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: In regional towns the fact that they can't afford it.

348
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 4: So I just think that these are all and this

349
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 4: is exactly what we've seen in California right where you've

350
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 4: imposed all of these laws made it very hard to

351
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 4: buy the car that people actually want, so they're pushing

352
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 4: everyone into evs.

353
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: And what we witnessed over there.

354
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 4: Which will be in the video that's coming out, the

355
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 4: public charging network is an absolute clusterfuck. We were waiting

356
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 4: hours to get to a charger. When we finally got

357
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 4: to the charger, the charger was either faulty or slow

358
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 4: because they had so many cars using it, and this

359
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 4: is in a country that has incredible ev uptake. And

360
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,719
Speaker 4: according to this report from last year, there are over

361
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 4: one hundred and thirty thousand public charges across the US,

362
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 4: which was a forty percent increase over twenty twenty, so

363
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 4: they are increasing. The private sector has also committed more

364
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 4: than one hundred and twenty billion dollars in domestic EV

365
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 4: and battery investments in the States, and it still isn't

366
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 4: enough at all to cater for the vehicles they're selling

367
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 4: at the moment. And their uptake of EVS is between

368
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 4: ten and twenty percent in new car sales, so you

369
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 4: can just imagine that when that gets hold over here,

370
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 4: we don't have the infrastructure to support it. If you

371
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 4: don't have charging at home, you have to go and

372
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 4: charge publicly, which is expensive and often doesn't work. So

373
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 4: I understand what they want to do. I just think

374
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 4: it's far too early for Australia. It's not very well

375
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 4: thought out for the cars that people are buying, and

376
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 4: I guarantee this will cost consumers more. There is absolutely

377
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 4: no sugarcoding that this will end up losting more money.

378
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: And this is an ev aid by the way, at

379
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: all by any means. It's I've always said, like, if

380
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: I had sort of a perfect garage and the money,

381
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: my daily commuter would probably be an ev It just

382
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: makes more sense.

383
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,959
Speaker 4: But you're in a privileged position to make that happen. Exactly,

384
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,959
Speaker 4: a lot of people can't afford a new car, and

385
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 4: if you can, you can't then afford like a Tesla

386
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 4: Model White, which is a family car, starts at seventy

387
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 4: thousand dollars. I just don't understand how they expect a

388
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 4: consumer to go, Okay, well, I was going to buy

389
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 4: a RAB four, but now I'm being forced into this thing,

390
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 4: which is double the price.

391
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: Well, surely hybrids would meet this kind of these Euro

392
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: sixty standards right.

393
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 4: Exactly, And you've seen how much demand there is for those,

394
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 4: So I don't know, I think that, and even for

395
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 4: a hybrid, if you look at the RAV four that

396
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 4: runs on ninety one rong, so that runs on the

397
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 4: dirty fuel that we have. I suspect if they do

398
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 4: switch to an engine that is capable of these new

399
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 4: emission standards, it is going to be more expensive, and

400
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 4: that car is ready feel gone up in price anyway.

401
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: But wait times as well, because I know I think Toyota.

402
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,719
Speaker 1: I read some way at Toyota is slowing down their

403
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: production as well.

404
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I just think that it will be interesting

405
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 4: to see how this goes.

406
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,360
Speaker 2: For people who are privileged enough.

407
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 4: To be able to afford a new car and a

408
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 4: privileged enough to also be able to afford a more

409
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 4: expensive new car because of this, or an electric car,

410
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 4: I don't think they'll probably care all that much. But

411
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,360
Speaker 4: what is coming around the corner is fuel subsidy disappearing

412
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 4: and people getting charged per kilometer, And I think also

413
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 4: around the corner will be the removal of subsidies for evs.

414
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 4: At the moment, there's been a huge groundswell for fleets

415
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 4: and people who are in jobs that allow them to

416
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 4: have an ovated lease rushing into evs. That we've seen

417
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 4: the second hand market tanking for evs because no one

418
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 4: wants to buy them secondhand. So I think that once

419
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 4: subsidies are removed, you're going to see the real state.

420
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 4: And that's what's happening in Europe at the moment. Subsidy

421
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 4: is getting removed everywhere and the private consumer is not

422
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 4: buying as many of these as they were previously because

423
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 4: the subsidies are.

424
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 2: Gone, So yeah, it'll be interesting to see what happens.

425
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 2: And you know, I do feel for the people who

426
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 2: can't afford to keep up with all of this stuff

427
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 2: because it looks great on paper, but if you go

428
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 2: to the average Australian, it's going to end up costing

429
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 2: them more.

430
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: I think we'll get better quality fuel, we'll get cleaner fuel,

431
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: for sure. Obviously, hopefully your raptor will disintegrate and burn

432
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: down a cliff.

433
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,239
Speaker 4: That will be leaving my hands at a time soon.

434
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 4: But I do agree. In the cities, like I used

435
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 4: to when our office was sort of near my place,

436
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,239
Speaker 4: so used to walk to work and the thing I

437
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 4: hated the most was walking down Kingsway.

438
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 2: Walking And I did hate that. That was the first

439
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 2: thing I had Jesus.

440
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: It sounded like a fat man squashing grapes. It was

441
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: just your man, but was slapping away.

442
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 4: But walking down Kingsway, which is a four lane busy

443
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 4: commute into the city, it would be hard to breathe

444
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 4: because you had trucks.

445
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 2: And cars and all that sort of stuff.

446
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 4: So yeah, I totally agree that we need to be

447
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 4: stopping the shit that's spewing out of these cars in

448
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 4: city one hundred percent, So totally get it. I just

449
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 4: don't know that this is the correct way to be

450
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 4: going about it.

451
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: I wonder if, come late this year early next year,

452
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: if a lot of dealerships will be slashing the price

453
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: of their cars because they don't want them on the

454
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: showroom floor in a sense, because what they've got to

455
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,239
Speaker 1: do is they don't meet Euro sixty standards. They're going

456
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,719
Speaker 1: to have to somehow comply because it's not really going

457
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: to affect people who are you know, already driving around

458
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: in a you know, nineteen ninety two high lux or

459
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: something like that. They'll just continue doing that. Yeah, they

460
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: will just continue doing that, but.

461
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 4: It won't be like overnight, ye near to go sell

462
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 4: your car. But if you do want a new car,

463
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 4: you're going to have limited options compared to what we

464
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 4: have now, and those options that you do get will

465
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 4: be more expensive.

466
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel as bad as it sounds. I just

467
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: can't imagine that.

468
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 2: It doesn't right now.

469
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 4: Yes, just wait until you see the cost increase of

470
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 4: these cars. And if you're one of the unfortunate people

471
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 4: that buys an ev without home charging, just you see

472
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 4: what's happening in the US happen here where you just

473
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 4: cannot charge the car.

474
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: What we saw during COVID that people are willing to

475
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: pay a shitload for above what a car is worth

476
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 1: and wait out far longer than what a car is

477
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: worth waiting for.

478
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 4: That was when interest rates were nothing. Now with the

479
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 4: cost of living, and it's going to take a while

480
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 4: to fix this cost of living issue. Even if they

481
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 4: reduce interest rates, you still have products that are very expensive.

482
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 4: And if you look at what's happening in the States,

483
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 4: we spoke about this off air. I was shocked that

484
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 4: a meal at McDonald's. So this was literally sausage and

485
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 4: ek McMuffin, hash brown and a coffee, two of those,

486
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 4: which is what we ordered when we were heading out

487
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 4: to do some filming, thirty six Australian dollars.

488
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: Which, by the way, Paul says, that's for two people.

489
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 1: Paul actually put all that food between two pieces of

490
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: bread and ate it like a sandwich.

491
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 2: There was no one else there.

492
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was no one else there.

493
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 4: But this is what I'm saying. It's that's what's happening

494
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 4: in the States at the moment. So you just wait

495
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 4: till that happens here here at the moment. Fuel is

496
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 4: very cheap. A lot of the stuff we have is

497
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 4: very cheap, so, but it's also expensive.

498
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: Like everyone's well starting to Yeah, people are starting to

499
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: rave on about and starting to catch on about. Hey,

500
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: forty bucks fifty bucks down at my local Woolworths or whatever.

501
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: Used to be like half a shop for the week

502
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: or a quarter of a shop. Now it's just like

503
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: getting the overnight basics.

504
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 2: It gets you the dishwasher tablets.

505
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and these guys, and by the way, these guys

506
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 1: are now pulling in record profits like never before.

507
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 4: The same with all the electricity companies. Yeah, so everyone's

508
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 4: making money.

509
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: Except there's greed there. Yeah. Speaking of the ev market,

510
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: the Evy game, the successor to the was it. The

511
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: I eight, which is called the I sixteen was looking promising,

512
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: It was looking great. It was like we got a

513
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: glimpse of it, and then things got a bit who

514
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 1: hard during COVID tough times, and then they've pulled the

515
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 1: pin on the whole project, which we're just looking at

516
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: this right now. This God, this is a great looking car.

517
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, look, I think so obviously I sixteen

518
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 4: is I eight times two. But I think that the

519
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 4: I eight is still a sensational car, and I think

520
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 4: they're super cheap at the moment of secondhand vehicles, and

521
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 4: I just love the look of them. They're really fun

522
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 4: to drive, they're fast, they're just cool.

523
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 1: And whatever happened to them, by the way, because they

524
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: didn't sell great, they didn't make it. Did they not

525
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 1: make many?

526
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 4: They didn't sell great, But it is I stand by it.

527
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 4: It is still great, a great vehicle to buy today

528
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 4: because it is just cool.

529
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: It's beautiful.

530
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, holds up this I sixteen just takes it to

531
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 4: another level. It looks sensational. So basically, the guy that

532
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 4: designed it, the design chief for the BMW brand, said

533
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 4: that it was another good kept secret. Prior to becoming

534
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,640
Speaker 4: BMW's design boss, he was the head of design for

535
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 4: the M division and he basically was deeply involved in this.

536
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,120
Speaker 4: And he said that the outside and the inside were

537
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 4: totally finished and it was ready to go, but COVID

538
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 4: hit and they canceled the project, and he didn't divulge

539
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 4: much more detail. But yeah, just such a good looking car,

540
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 4: and I do hope that this finally gets another life

541
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 4: at some point. But they were basically going to recycle

542
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 4: the body, the sort of composite skin that the I

543
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 4: eight had, so it didn't need a huge amount of,

544
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 4: you know, key architectural changes. So I just think it's

545
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 4: a it's a cool looking thing and unfortunately it'll likely

546
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 4: never see the light of day.

547
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 1: The rear looks amazing, like it does look very concepty,

548
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: but one that they could easily pull off, you know,

549
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: the I eight. We saw that in the I eight.

550
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 1: It was very much what the hell is this? And yeah,

551
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 1: they brought it out and it's a it's a fantastic

552
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: looking car. I've got Yeah, I've got nothing bad to say.

553
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: The wheels are a crazy call. I'd hope that keep those,

554
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 1: you know, like the different orange wheels at the back,

555
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: at the rear.

556
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 2: It just looks bloody awesome. Yeah, absolutely awesome.

557
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 1: What a shame. Yeah. What else got droop fed to

558
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: us during the week. The R S six GT.

559
00:25:58,800 --> 00:25:58,919
Speaker 3: Oh.

560
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's an interesting one because what Audi is now

561
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 4: doing is all of their future cars that have even

562
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 4: numbers are going to be electric, and then the odd

563
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 4: numbers are going to be not electric. So the RS

564
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 4: six is going to become an electric vehicle. So this

565
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 4: is the last time you'll see an RS six that

566
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 4: is not not sort of fully electric and the GT

567
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 4: is basically the sign off for that vehicle. They'll do

568
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 4: six hundred and sixty units in total. Australia is going

569
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 4: to get about twenty of them, and it has this

570
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,719
Speaker 4: incredible designs that it just looks absolutely bloody unreal. So

571
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 4: in terms of what is different here, so reworked Audi

572
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 4: Quatro Sport differential for the rear axle to make it

573
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 4: a little bit more agile and rear biased, a new

574
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 4: coil over suspension tune. We don't know pricing just yet

575
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 4: for Australia, but basically they're saying that it's got a

576
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 4: higher spring rate, triple adjustable dampers, stiffer stabilizers so it's

577
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 4: going to be bloody firm, and then ride heights being lowered.

578
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 4: So they've just gone to absolute town on this.

579
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: The artwork kind of looks great too. I've got nothing

580
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: bad to say about how this car looks. It Just

581
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 1: the speaker system in it just pops everything. The wheels

582
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: look at that.

583
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: It is a stunner of a thing.

584
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 4: So yeah, look, I still think this is one of

585
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 4: the best cars on the market today in terms of

586
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,679
Speaker 4: just an overall performance daily driver. You can drive this

587
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 4: daily and then when you want to just unleash it,

588
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 4: it unleashes like it is. It is such a good car.

589
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 4: So yeah, I'm a big fan of them.

590
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: Lexus GX. Should we talk let's talk it speaking of

591
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 1: good looking cars. Wow, we the Lexus GX.

592
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 2: So let me give you just a bit of a

593
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 2: background on this car.

594
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 1: Tell me a little bit about the background. Power way,

595
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: tell me a little bit about it.

596
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: So this vehicle sits on a platform called TNGA dash F. Now,

597
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 4: the reason that's important is because the three hundred series

598
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 4: land Cruise that sits on the same platform, so does

599
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 4: the Lexus lex. So the big big suv that's shared

600
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 4: with the three hundred, now, the new land Cruise a

601
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 4: Prato is also on TNGAF. So the complication to that

602
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 4: is that all of these vehicles share the same wheelbase.

603
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 4: They have slight differences in terms of length, but that's

604
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 4: just due to the body design. And it then means

605
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 4: that you've got the same vehicle but different pricing points.

606
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 4: So the reason that's a bit of a complication is

607
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 4: that the land Cruise a Prito, which was always under

608
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 4: the bigger big boy land Creuse are in terms of

609
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 4: pricing and engines, et cetera, is now the same vehicle

610
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 4: with the exception of the engine.

611
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 2: And because you.

612
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 4: Now have to have four of these, you've got to

613
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 4: have a land Cruise, a Prito, a GX which is

614
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 4: the land cruise, a Prato alternative, then.

615
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 2: A three hundred.

616
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 4: Three hundred series, and then alexis Lex, yes, which is

617
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 4: top t You have to have enough differentia between them

618
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 4: so that you can actually provide value because the guy

619
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 4: that buying a three hundred series doesn't want the guy

620
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 4: in the Prado with a V six diesel as well,

621
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 4: because why would you spend an extra fifty grand and

622
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 4: a three hundred series.

623
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: Now I said to you before, I was like, so

624
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: what's the difference between the GX and the Alex and

625
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: you gave me a very sly level. Then I pulled

626
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: my pants up.

627
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 2: So here's here's the issue.

628
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 4: Right, So this uses the same twin turbo V six

629
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 4: petrol engine that's in the Lex, except it's detuned.

630
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: Right and so, and then by the way they've taken

631
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: the V eight now is gone right.

632
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 4: And a bit of background to the GX. This was

633
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 4: available I think for three generations in the US, and

634
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 4: the last generation of this was a V eight petrol,

635
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 4: so look the same as a Prato pretty much, but

636
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 4: it had a V eight petrol as opposed to the

637
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 4: POxy four cylinder diesel. It's in the Prato, which it

638
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 4: will then carry over into this next generation, which is

639
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 4: just comical.

640
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 2: Okay.

641
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 4: So yeah, the GX is I think probably the best

642
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 4: value you're going to get in terms of luxury, off road,

643
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 4: K capable, and punchy, so it's got all of those things.

644
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: Still get the V six twin turbo.

645
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 4: It's not huge money, so we don't know pricing just yet,

646
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 4: but it'll likely kick off at around one hundred and

647
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 4: ten thousand before on roads. It's going to come in

648
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 4: three specs, so it's going to be Luxury, overtrail and sports.

649
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 4: Luxury overtrail is my favorite. So this is basically their

650
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 4: off road focused version, comes with all terrains. It's got

651
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 4: a very sort of aggressive off road. Look, there's a

652
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 4: color there that's very reminiscent of Sandy Torp, which is

653
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 4: the seventy series Hero color.

654
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: I think that's the one they're peddling in all media

655
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: at the moment too. That's their big media car.

656
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they've even thought about stuff. So you've got

657
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 4: integrated TOBAR with brake controllers that comes standard from the factory.

658
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 4: Down in front of the overtrailer, you've got a section

659
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 4: that can be removed to install stuff like a winch.

660
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 4: They've thought about modification because in the States the GX

661
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 4: is heavily modified by people for off road driving, so

662
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 4: they wanted to give you one straight out of the box.

663
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 4: Comes with EKDSS, which is a new version of KDSS

664
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 4: that's electronic controlled, which gives you really good wheel articulation.

665
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 2: So on paper, it's great in terms of the way

666
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:05,719
Speaker 2: that it drives.

667
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 4: We had a chance to drive this across some of

668
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 4: the roads in just outside Tucson, and not many corners,

669
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 4: so I can't really comment on how it handles. But

670
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 4: the engine is fantastic in a straight line. It's got

671
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 4: plenty of punch. The interior really nice luxury appointments. Looks

672
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 4: different to typical Lexus a lot of straight lines.

673
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: Very boxy, isn't it. And I don't have a problem

674
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: with that at all. I think that was my main

675
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: problem with Lexus in the past. I remember when you

676
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: asked me once what do you think of Lexus in general?

677
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: And I said, it just feels like an old man

678
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: chucking the golf clubs in the back of the car.

679
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's changed now. They're really trying to bring that down.

680
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: I think they've achieved that with this too. I think

681
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: they really have it. It's boxy, it's there is nothing

682
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 1: swoopy that's been carried over from the past, previous models.

683
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: This is it's a beautiful looking car, and it's still

684
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,959
Speaker 1: it's still kind of meaty, you know, it's still aggressive,

685
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: and it does have that off road stance about it.

686
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: It looks like it could still go anywhere. My question

687
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: is this is a lot of these four wheel drives

688
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: go it's a great off road, and they're a bit

689
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: sort of firm or whatever on road or vice versa.

690
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: How's this one going like as an off road and

691
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: on road like package.

692
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 4: Well, they've got anti roll bars which can be disconnected

693
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 4: when it's off road automatically. But this overtrail also gets

694
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 4: adaptive damping, and so does the top speck. The entry

695
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 4: level on twenties, I thought road, Well, the top speck

696
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 4: is on twenty two, so I don't know what that's like.

697
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 4: We didn't get a chance to drive that, but yeah,

698
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 4: look for and the other complication again is the roads

699
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 4: were quite smooth where we were. I really need to

700
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 4: see this in Australia to see what it's like. But

701
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 4: it did have a couple of negatives though, So that

702
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 4: has the same issue that the Rounded series has, which

703
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 4: is the second road doesn't slide, which means you don't

704
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 4: really get the opportunity to give you third row much room,

705
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 4: and as a result of that, it's not a great

706
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 4: spot for adults. You also can't get the overtrail in

707
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 4: seven seats. They do a six seat configuration as well,

708
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 4: which again you can't do. The other thing as well

709
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: is that this comes with a four thousand kilo brake

710
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 4: towing capacity. In the States, the overtrail, we won't get

711
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 4: that in Australia. I don't think they'll probably bump that

712
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 4: down to thirty five hundred. So yeah, there's just a

713
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 4: couple of sort of odd, sort of little bits and

714
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 4: pieces there. But for the most part, this is actually

715
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 4: a fantastic vehicle and I'm just really excited to see

716
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 4: it here. From what I can see, it is going

717
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:27,959
Speaker 4: to be sold out for a couple of years as

718
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 4: soon as they launch. So if you are actually interested

719
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 4: in one of these, I'd be going down and putting

720
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 4: your money down.

721
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 1: Lexus is predicted.

722
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 2: We interviewed the boss of Lexus and he goes, they're

723
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 2: predicting twenty percent of their sales volume is going to

724
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: be overtrail. I'm like, I don't think so.

725
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 4: I think it's going to be more like eighty percent,

726
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 4: which means they would have forward planned two or three

727
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 4: years ago to order only twenty percent of the allocation

728
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 4: and overtrail. And if most people are going to be

729
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 4: buying that, it's going to be sold out virtually straight away.

730
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: That could be a deliberate he could be underselling that deliberately.

731
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 4: I do hope so, because I think this will be

732
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 4: incredibly popular and they're just going to have that issue

733
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 4: where it sells out because the problem they have with

734
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 4: the Prado, they're only launching that with a carryover effectively

735
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,800
Speaker 4: two point eight leader diesel, and that thing is fairly gutless.

736
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 4: In the Pridor at the moment, this will be heavier

737
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 4: and they're putting the same engine in it, So I

738
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 4: think everyone's going to be rushing in to get this

739
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 4: as opposed to the Prato. If towing and that sort

740
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 4: of stuff is important.

741
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: To them, they've got plastic side steps on that.

742
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

743
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 4: See the concept had rock sliders, which looked unreal. I

744
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 4: have a feeling rock sliders will be available as an

745
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 4: option because they have a lot of accessories you can

746
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 4: get with this. And I did notice those plastic side

747
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:40,439
Speaker 4: steps out very cheap.

748
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 1: The Raptor's got like a metal ye a black metal right, Ye.

749
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: That would be better off doing that.

750
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

751
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

752
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: It does look good though, doesn't it. Those those sign

753
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 1: marrias are almost a little bit FJ cruise, Yeah, exactly,

754
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: square sort of things.

755
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 2: Can I just also ask for your opinion on this?

756
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: Actually yeah, I would put that away. There's probably a

757
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 1: cream for that. I'd go see a doctor soon. Did

758
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: you get that off, Donner? What's that?

759
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 2: I'll say it's similar in color?

760
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 1: Oh God Jesus.

761
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 4: But what do you think about my cowboy hat which

762
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 4: I got in in Scottsdale, fitted for my head and

763
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 4: accessorized for my head.

764
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 2: Do you think I'd be okay wearing that in public?

765
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: And many men did? You? Fuck? So, give give us

766
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 1: another look. We're going to put that on. We're putting

767
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 1: that up.

768
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:37,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's broad back mountain ball.

769
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: Did you actually buy that? And has your wife seen that? Yeah?

770
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: She loves it? Does she? Well she saw it last night.

771
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 2: It was the only thing I was wearing.

772
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: Did she get the last sue out?

773
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 4: I don't know what that means, but yeah, yeah, yeah,

774
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 4: in Scott style, the mini Lau.

775
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 2: That everyone was wearing. So I brought it back with me.

776
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 1: Did you did you? You drive the g X with that?

777
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 2: Yes, ma'am.

778
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 1: Let's just pitch your pool right now. It is a

779
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: little cowboy hard donna next to him, wheel drive, smells

780
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:14,800
