1
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: Hey, sorry we're late everyone. We were too busy getting sued.

2
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 2: Yes, you may have noticed. The name of our show

3
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: is now different.

4
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, welcome to the Driver's Show everyone. I think it

5
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 1: sounds better. Yeah, it was benefit of hindsight. I think

6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: it is a much better name.

7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I did pitch it early on, but you.

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,159
Speaker 1: Just spat on your face and said get out of

9
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: my office, and then I threw you out.

10
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 2: The window, and then you realize you don't have an office.

11
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: It was in the cardboard box in the park. So yeah,

12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: it's been a bit of a mad couple of How

13
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: long has it been. It's it been a couple of

14
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: months now since we've been out of record.

15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 2: Yes, mainly because we've had just some absolute.

16
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 1: We have had some issues with the legal system. And

17
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: as a courtesy, where now the Driver's Show.

18
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, which we have enough to be confused with anything else.

19
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: Anything else. We have a new logo, We've got new

20
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: five updated my photos so now you can actually see

21
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: my extra chin.

22
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: Yes, you're I'm looking at your photo now and you

23
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: look like you you exist in eight pixels.

24
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: For health and safety reasons, ladies, ladies, this.

25
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 2: Is what happens if you keep eating cupcakes.

26
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: I look good in that jacket. Seriously, I walk out

27
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: in public in that jacket. It is dinners on ladies.

28
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: It's like seagulls fighting over a chip. Anyway, So I

29
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: guess we should talk about a little bit of the

30
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: backstory about where we've been. I feel like it's been

31
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: so bloody long.

32
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: How are you poor? Your rush? Have you been?

33
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: How are you sleeping these days? How's your erection?

34
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 3: Well, I've been busy and everything was going great until

35
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 3: we started getting emails from our good friends.

36
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: Yes, our good friends and and whatnot.

37
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: So you know it's official when they call you Gordon.

38
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: Oh god, well no, according to one of the legal letters,

39
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: mister Gordon, mister what what mister Gordon? I think you

40
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: are an infringement or what. So basically what's happened is.

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 4: Okay, guys, let me pause you there. I'm a member

42
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 4: of the boys legal team, and I'm here to make

43
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 4: sure that they keep their noses clean and not get

44
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 4: themselves in trouble. So here's what you need to know.

45
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 4: Here's the facts. In September of twenty twenty two, a

46
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 4: particular television network and media company sent the Boys a

47
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 4: letter of demand claiming, in their view, the boys podcast

48
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 4: The Drive Show was allegedly infringing their media automotive derivative Drive. Essentially,

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 4: they claimed the word Drive in The Drive Show podcast

50
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 4: infringed trademark registrations relating to their brand Drive for numerous

51
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: reasons covered under numerous clauses of the Trademarks Act. We

52
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 4: won't bore you with we don't believe it at all. However,

53
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 4: given we don't have as much time on our hands

54
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 4: as the complainant and on an own missions basis, the

55
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 4: Boys have changed the name of this podcast to The

56
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 4: Driver's Show. That's Drive with an RS at the end.

57
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 4: You can still find us on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and iHeartRadio,

58
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 4: but will be known under the Driver's Show. You can

59
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 4: still use the Drive Show dot com dot AU for

60
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 4: a while, but we'd prefer the Driver's Show dot com

61
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 4: dot A. You Okay, back to you guys, so.

62
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: Probably shouldn't have sworn that much, but it is what

63
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: it is. There's no lies there, no.

64
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: To my former colleagues.

65
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 3: Next time you want to us to do something, just

66
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 3: pick up the phone and message me because you have

67
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: my number, and don't go running to your legal department.

68
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: Doesn't that say a lot about you? They don't even

69
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: want to talk to you anyway.

70
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 2: This is family radio.

71
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: No, it's very much not very much. Listen to this

72
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: dad's emailers and go. Can you cut the swearing out?

73
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: I love to listen to you. Where my kids in

74
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: the car? Well, you know what can stop it?

75
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 2: Grow up?

76
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: Get some time to yourself those kids anyway. Anyway, so

77
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: we're back into it now, back into fortnightly.

78
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,640

Speaker 3: to get in touch with us for the moment.

86
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 2: You never know, that might change. Yeah, I annoy.

87
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: Someone else highly likely forever. Anyway, Hey, you did a

88
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: road trip, which I thought was boring. I love what

89
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: you do for fun. You know what we should do?

90
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: What let's compare an EV to a diesel car. Well,

91
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: that sounds like a good idea. What do you want

92
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: to do then, I don't know, Let's wink each other

93
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 1: off in the public toilet on the roads. It sounds

94
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: like a good idea to me. How good's engineering? Oh,

95
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: it's brilliant.

96
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that happened.

97
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: So you did a road trap with your good made elbows. Yeah,

98
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: and it was you're in an EV You're in a

99
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: EV six. Yeah, he was in what was it, an

100
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: Audi q FA Diesel.

101
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, Audi Q five thirty five TDI, which is the

102
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 3: base model Diesel.

103
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 2: Cool.

104
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: It still looked good by the way that car, Yeah,

105
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: I thought it still looked It doesn't look like a

106
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 1: bass shitter.

107
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 2: It sort of looks okay.

108
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 3: So yeah, we thought, let's test the theory out with EV's.

109
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 3: You know they're meant to be really cheap and really not.

110
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

111
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 3: Well, what I wanted to figure out was can you

112
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 3: actually drive an EV regionally in Australia. I know that

113
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 3: all the major highways are covered, but what if you

114
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 3: don't necessarily want to go on a major highway. The

115
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 3: second part to this challenge was Audi claims that the

116
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 3: base Q five can do fourteen hundred k's on a tank.

117
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 3: And what I said to Elbows was, I'm going to

118
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 3: challenge you to make it to Sydney from Adelaide in

119
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 3: that Q five on one tank and he is famously

120
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 3: not very good at being efficient, and I basically.

121
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: Got him to brim the tank. We brimmed the EV

122
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 2: to one hundred percent.

123
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: And brim the tank mean basically phill it so that

124
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: the fuel is like literally at the cap.

125
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 2: So it's all the way.

126
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 3: And the reason we do this hashtag engineer is because

127
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 3: you then brim it at the.

128
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: End and it sounds like a search thing on born.

129
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 3: Because at the end you can brim it again and

130
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: use the exact number of liters you've used plus the

131
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 3: kilometers you've traveled to figure out the fuel economy, which

132
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 3: ended up being different to what the computer said, by the.

133
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 2: Way, Wow cool. Yeah.

134
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: So anyway, long story short, we did this road trip.

135
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: It was sorry to recap. It was Melbourne to Adelaide,

136
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: Adelaide to Sydney. Oh, Adelaide to Sydney.

137
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 3: Yeah so, and via the regional route, so via the

138
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 3: hay planes, so not via the sort of the major highway.

139
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: It takes you closer to Melbourne and then back up

140
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,799
Speaker 2: to Sydney. The reason we did that is I wanted

141
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 2: to see what the.

142
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 3: Regional stuff was like and for Elbows to actually make it.

143
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 2: He decided to travel a bit slower.

144
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 3: He was doing ninety k's an hour, and the whole

145
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 3: purpose of this was for him to fail, but also

146
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 3: for us to see how much time I would spend

147
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 3: on the road trip having to charge the car compared

148
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: to him just being able to drive constantly. And there

149
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 3: results ended up being interesting. So I used a site

150
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 3: called a Better Route Planner. So it's a free website,

151
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 3: and what it does for evs is it.

152
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: I've gone to a site called better Route too. I

153
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: didn't really find you were rejected. I was rejected.

154
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 3: So Better Route Planner allows you to type in your destination.

155
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 3: What it does is it takes into account topology, weather,

156
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 3: and the real range of the EV to tell you

157
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: when and how often you need to charge. So this

158
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 3: was really good and basically you.

159
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: Do Tesla have something similar in their software like that.

160
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: Already they do, but only with Tesla charges.

161
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 3: Yes, so this actually into account any public charging infrastructure.

162
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: So what we found was that I'd have a certain

163
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 3: number of places I'd need to stop. We decided that

164
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 3: instead of doing it all in one day, we would

165
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 3: stop in Hay overnight at a motel.

166
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 2: I'm trying and.

167
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 3: Avoid those wherever possible. But anyway, well, what was that like?

168
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 3: So FIRS class?

169
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 2: Yeah? Great. I was like, oh, hi, do I get

170
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 2: an upgrade to a suite or anything? And They're like no, they.

171
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: Put you both in the same room.

172
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 3: Then they said here's your key, and I'm like, oh,

173
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 3: so it's a physical key. Interesting was your bedcoin operated?

174
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 3: So our own troop was going great. I kept sort

175
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 3: of overtaking Elbows after stopping. Once we got away from

176
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 3: the main highway where the chargers slowed down a lot,

177
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 3: he would sort of make up a bit of ground.

178
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 3: But the biggest issue we had was on our way

179
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 3: between Oyan and Hay because just they closed the road

180
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 3: across the Murray, so we had a seventy kilometer detour

181
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 3: and I would have thrown it all up.

182
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 2: Well, it was an issue for me because I pulled.

183
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 3: Out early in in Oion because Elbows had got ahead

184
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 3: a little bit and we had a plan to stop

185
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 3: there to eat, but there was nothing open on a

186
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 3: Monday night, so I sort of stopped charging early. And

187
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 3: as a result of that, when it came to the detail,

188
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, well, this is going to be

189
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 3: a slight issue because we're adding seventy k's on which

190
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 3: I hadn't accounted for. And as it started, as the

191
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 3: sun started setting, it started getting very cold, and an

192
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 3: EV driven cold at highway speeds uses much higher amounts

193
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 3: of battery charge because it has to use the battery

194
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 3: to keep itself warm to run a heater. So I

195
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 3: ended up arriving in Hay with one percent battery left.

196
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 3: It was literally sweating bullet stuff because if I had

197
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 3: have run out, we would have been screwed. And there

198
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 3: was only one charger in Hay as well. So again,

199
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 3: had it have been a long weekend or something and

200
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 3: not a Monday night, I could have been in.

201
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 2: A queue of seven other cars.

202
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: I feel like your charger in Hay would have just

203
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: been some woman that lives in a carr just like

204
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: with a dart in the mouth. You did give a

205
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: fucking car. Hey on, man, watch your name paula on, Paul,

206
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: let me just plug your bloody car and anyway after Paul, anyway,

207
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: So we plugged up. Now, this is a slow charger,

208
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: so we had to basically leave the car there for

209
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 1: an hour and a half while we went to the

210
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: truck stop to have a dirty, dirty meal. Oh God,

211
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure where you.

212
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 2: Were going without one to take it a dinner somewhere.

213
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

214
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 2: Wow.

215
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: So anyway, the rest of the trip with two blokes

216
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: at a track stop, nothing sus in Regionals, Australia.

217
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

218
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 3: We ended up in Sydney the following day and we

219
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 3: filled both cars back up to one hundred percent.

220
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: We sat down and.

221
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 3: Did the costs and the EV ended up being five

222
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 3: dollars cheaper than the diesel, which surprised me because I

223
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 3: thought EV's were going to be significantly cheaper. And keep

224
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 3: in mind the charge in Hay was free. It was

225
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: the only charger along the way that was actually free,

226
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 3: so basically meant that had I have paid in Hay,

227
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 3: the EV would have been more expensive than the diesel

228
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 3: to run over that trip. Granted, this is a very

229
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 3: efficient deedl It ended up consuming four point three let

230
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 3: us per one hundred k and he's doing ninety, but

231
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 3: in reality he could have done the speed limit and

232
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 3: filled up in four minutes and potentially done the trip

233
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 3: in one day if he shared driving with someone else.

234
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 3: So yeah, look, EV's a getting there, and once we

235
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 3: do get faster charging rolled out everywhere, it'll be much better.

236
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 3: But ultimately, with him doing ninety, we ended up arriving

237
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 3: in Sydney within fifteen minutes of each other, so it

238
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 3: wasn't actually that big of a deal having to stop,

239
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 3: which I thought was pretty good.

240
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: We really do have to up our game. I reckon

241
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: on that sort of stuff. It's just my view on

242
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: this whole thing hasn't really changed too much in the

243
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. I've been driving a bad Well.

244
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 3: You were saying that the bid could probably do Adelaide

245
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 3: to Sydney without charging.

246
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: Sure, Sure, on a tow truck, I was saying it

247
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: could probably do Sydney to Port More Quarry in one go.

248
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: I reckon it probably could, but in eco mode driving slow,

249
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: air conditioner off, probably throw the luggage away. Maybe if

250
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: they just had a lighter driver instead of me. Yeah,

251
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 1: but yeah. So my point is, I think at the

252
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: moment there's still a brilliant commuting car like that's that's

253
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: where we're at. Unfortunately, city driving charging overnight, it's a

254
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: habitual thing. I just they're not really doing anything. For

255
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: those haters that are claiming, what about the regional bloody

256
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: road trips made in theory, You've kind of proved that wrong.

257
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 1: It's the same sort of cost, you arrived at the

258
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: same sort of time, all that kind of stuff. But

259
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: I mean, the reliability of charges in the infrastructure we've

260
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: got here at the moment regionally is just not where

261
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 1: it needs to be.

262
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 3: Is always more expensive than an equivalent internal combustion car

263
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 3: as well, so you're paying more upfront. So charging at

264
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 3: home it's fine because you can you can obviously use

265
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 3: solar lower rates, blah blah blah. But on a road

266
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 3: trip they just don't. They make sense. But there's just

267
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 3: a lot of planning involved. How do I have been

268
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 3: with the family in that car and it weighed more

269
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 3: and all that sort of stuff. I would have had

270
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 3: to probably slow down to sixty k's an hour on

271
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 3: a one hundred hundred and ten kN hour road to

272
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 3: actually make it, Yeah.

273
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 2: Because I can't just stop anywhere.

274
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: And when you go like a screaming kid in the car, yeah,

275
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: everyone knows. Like now, when you want to do a

276
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: road trip with a kid, you kind of have a plan,

277
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: but all those sort of plans go out the window.

278
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: So I imagine that on top of doing something like this,

279
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: I reckon it would be a friggin nightmare. But if

280
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: you've done it yourself, let us know how you went.

281
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm key to hear from people. I mean, do

282
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 3: you drive an EV? Do you do long distance drives?

283
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 3: I was looking at the comments on our article at

284
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 3: car expert dot com that a you, and I noticed

285
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 3: some people, like one guy said he's driven his Model

286
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 3: by three thousand k's across the middle of Australia had

287
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 3: no issues with charging.

288
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, but that's if you're happy to.

289
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 3: Charge for twenty four hours on a ten amps soccer

290
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 3: at a caravan park. Yeah, which you were, well, but

291
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 3: I mean it's just that kind of argument is just stupid.

292
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 3: You can charge an EV anywhere, that's right, But I

293
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 3: don't have twenty four hours to spare in between my trips,

294
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 3: especially if you have a family.

295
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, anyway, what was.

296
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: The lady's name here charged up your car?

297
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 2: Was it Doris? Donna? Donna?

298
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: Yes, because it was Donna. You want a chicken schnitzel

299
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: while your late you go, Donna?

300
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 3: Hey, Gordy, do you drive a Hyundai IX thirty five

301
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 3: manufactured between twenty fourteen and twenty fifteen. No, Paul, I

302
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 3: actually don't okay if you do, don't park it in

303
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 3: a garage, okay, because it might catch on fire.

304
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: Oh that's a little extra. They call those little extras

305
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 1: easter eggs. When you don't know a fee, when you

306
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: just find out a feature about your car. Yeah, oh,

307
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: this one just like explodes.

308
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 2: In the middle of the night campfire. Yeah. I mean

309
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 2: yan Day and I think Kira.

310
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 3: As well doing quite me on that are having issues

311
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 3: with the ABS modules in number of their cars. And

312
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 3: the latest here is the IX thirty five, which was

313
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 3: the predecessor to the Tucson, where it may short circuit

314
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 3: when components are exposed to moisture, and it can result

315
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 3: in a vehicle fire even when the vehicle is switched off,

316
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 3: so it doesn't affect the breaking system, but a vehicle

317
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 3: fire may increase the risk of serious injury or death

318
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 3: to vehicle occupants, other road uses and bystanders.

319
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 2: You came up with that report, and Yanda is advising.

320
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 3: Owners to park in an open space and away from

321
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: flammable materials and structures. Therefore, don't park your ixit vibe

322
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 3: in a garage, but on the street.

323
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't leave your Samsung Galaxy phone in there too.

324
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: From that era, because that'll probably explode as well.

325
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 2: I mean, how does this happen?

326
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't understand how a car can

327
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: explode when it's got zero electricity going through it or anything.

328
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: Well, I think this is the worst case.

329
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 3: So the saying they sold nineteen five hundred of these

330
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 3: in between that period, I highly doubt all of them

331
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 3: are going to do this. But you might have a

332
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 3: cup all that have that might be that might reside

333
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 3: by the ocean or some other area, or I might

334
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 3: have moisture content that really sort of helps this short circuit.

335
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 3: And the second you get that short circuit, there's enough

336
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 3: sort of energy built up in there to start a

337
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 3: small fire which then becomes a big fire.

338
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 2: That's just not great.

339
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: That is they were They weren't a bad car. They yeah,

340
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: they did start to this issue. Yes, aside from this

341
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: little hoo ha. Imagine if you're the proud owner of

342
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: I X thirty five and then you just sort of

343
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: wake up in the middle of the night and you're like,

344
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: what the hell is that said?

345
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 2: Did you leave the toasta on Donald?

346
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 4: Like?

347
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: What's that?

348
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 3: Is that?

349
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 2: A barbecue?

350
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: I can smell that the house burned down Now that's

351
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: the sound of us losing our memories.

352
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 2: Gordy.

353
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 3: Did you know that as they sell more EV's, the

354
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 3: economies of scale will make batteries become cheaper, and then

355
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 3: EV's become cheaper.

356
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: Yes, Paul, I had a rough idea.

357
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 2: No, that's not true. Okay, that's that's not true.

358
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 3: EV battery prices have increased this year for the first time.

359
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 2: Oh so what they're doing is the exact.

360
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 3: Opposite of what everyone expected them to do, which is

361
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 3: go down in price. That's on the back of rising

362
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 3: material costs and inflation.

363
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: And parts and bloody chips and all this kind of crab,

364
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: this weird story that is getting peddled out.

365
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 3: Yea. So that is why at the moment we're seeing

366
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 3: the cost of EV's go up across the board.

367
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 2: And it's interesting.

368
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 3: I was having a look at a graph that Bloomberg

369
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 3: published and it showed that in twenty thirteen, the sort

370
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 3: of cost per killer what hour of battery was something

371
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 3: like seven hundred dollars, So it was quite expensive to

372
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 3: buy an EV in twenty thirteen. In twenty twenty one,

373
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: it was its lowest price at one hundred and forty

374
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 3: dollars per kilo what hour Now it's gone up to

375
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty one, and it looks like that

376
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 3: trend is set to increase as.

377
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 2: We move on.

378
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,719
Speaker 3: So evs are going to become more expensive before they

379
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 3: become cheaper, and some of the European nations and now

380
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 3: mandating evs to just.

381
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: Be standard stuff, and it's like, well, who's going to

382
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 2: be able to afford these?

383
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: It's frustrating. It's a frust it's a frustrating piece of

384
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 1: news because I feel like we're in a good place

385
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: with EV's. They're starting to kind of leak into the

386
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: mainstream a lot, and then you get stuff like this

387
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 1: that kind of sets it back. Is this time to

388
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 1: commercialize hydrogen a bit more?

389
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 3: Maybe potentially, I mean people complain about the efficiency of hydrogen,

390
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 3: but ultimately you need less battery pack, which is getting expensive.

391
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 2: Now.

392
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, hydrogen isn't as efficient, but if you're using green

393
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 3: energy to create it then and it's.

394
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: Less waiting time at the pump, so to speak.

395
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: Yep, you don't have to meet Donna on your road trips.

396
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: Well, that's actually that's a negative. I just want to

397
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 1: meet She's a tourist attraction.

398
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 2: You want to throw a leg over.

399
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: Oh god, yeah, you've got the famous buck and caves

400
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: and then you've got the famous Buck and Donna. Silly,

401
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: what is that? You know when you drive through Regional

402
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: Australia and you get like the giant Prawn and you

403
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: get the giant Kuala and the big jam or something,

404
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: then you just get Donna and she's just sitting on

405
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: a toilet on the road side and just you can

406
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 1: go in there. It was what you just like your

407
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: kids like, Mom, is that the dog in the tucker Box?

408
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: And Dad's like, I don't know, but to be safe

409
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: if I'm going to enter through the gift shop.

410
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 2: Oh my god, this is the worst episode. This is

411
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 2: the best episode ever.

412
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 1: By the way, we accept fan art, So if anyone

413
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: likes to draw a picture of Donna on the Tucker Box,

414
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: send it to us. We'll check it up on that Instagram.

415
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: Donna in the Tacker Box. Sam Hey for GT Mark four,

416
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: Holy shit balls?

417
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 2: How good is that? So good?

418
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: For G four looks like a almost looks like a

419
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 1: futuristic McLaren.

420
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 3: Well it's it sort of pays homage to the Lamon

421
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 3: winning GT. So this is sort of where they where

422
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 3: they've pulled it from. I just think that this is Yeah,

423
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 3: it is. It is such a cool looking thing. How

424
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 3: good is that spoiler?

425
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: It's so next level? Yeah, like everything from the lights

426
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: to the body kit on the look at that dining

427
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: board sitting up at the back of it. Jesus.

428
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

429
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 3: So they're talking price one point seven million US dollars.

430
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 3: You have to apply for it, sixty seven of them.

431
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 3: But the cool thing is they're basically modifying the three

432
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 3: point five liter twin turbo Eco boost engine that it

433
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 3: comes with, which is a similar version to the engine

434
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 3: that's fitted to the F one fifty Raptor. They're saying

435
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 3: it should produce almost six hundred kilowatts of power, which

436
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 3: is insane. The regular road going version is just under

437
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 3: five hundred. What's a power still, Yeah, I kind of.

438
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: I mean they're good, they're great, but they're not. They're

439
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: pretty good.

440
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 2: No, But the thing is that weighs barely anything.

441
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 3: So it's got a full carbon body and it's a

442
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 3: lot of downforce, so it is.

443
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

444
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 3: So we've got a friend of ours and the States

445
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 3: has the road going version of this, and it is

446
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 3: an unreal car. It sounds so good. It looks incredible.

447
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 3: It is, Yeah, it is just something else.

448
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 1: The other thing about Americans too, if they do a supercar,

449
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: it's always very bold and brash. Yeah, there's something almost

450
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: a little bit European about this.

451
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 3: I just love the fact that they're doing it because

452
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 3: at the moment everyone's sort of giving up on this

453
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 3: type of thing, and I love the fact that they're going, no, no,

454
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 3: we're still going to do this and just really really

455
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 3: get stuck into it. So I think it is a

456
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,159
Speaker 3: sensational looking thing. What's this limited to sixty seven? Sixty

457
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 3: seven and it's track only so you can't drive it

458
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 3: on the road.

459
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you make of you know, like high

460
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: end companies like Porsche and Ferrari, where they always have

461
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: when they're releasing a car, for instance, it could be

462
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: a special edition whatever, but they pretty much know the

463
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: clients they're going to give it to, Yeah, before it

464
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: even goes up for order.

465
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 3: This is the same thing, and actually quite funny. I

466
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 3: don't know if anyone is aware of this, but when

467
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 3: the AMGGT Black Series was being launched, if you wanted

468
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,239
Speaker 3: to buy one, they had an application form, and on

469
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 3: that form they wanted your social media details, so they

470
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 3: only really gave people allocations if they were like big

471
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 3: on social media, which.

472
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 1: That blows when you think about it. They're the people

473
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 1: who are most likely to go bust at some point. Yeah,

474
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, They're and more likely to

475
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: disgrace themselves.

476
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this will be the same thing. And

477
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 3: I'm just looking at the expression of interest. So they're

478
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 3: asking for name, surname, email, phone number, location, and then

479
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 3: they want to know about other Ford or multimatic road

480
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 3: or race vehicles in your collection. So I think they'll

481
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 3: probably just stick with people who have amazing car collections here.

482
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess you're out. I guess I'm out.

483
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 3: Well, I would definitely make mention of my V eight

484
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 3: Commodore's sure.

485
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: Sure, how's that going? Is that still collecting dust in

486
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: the corner?

487
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 2: Correct?

488
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously, maybe you could just show off your portfolio

489
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 1: of NFTs and bitcoin. That was a great idea.

490
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 2: That'd be a shoe in.

491
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, yeah, I know guys who have that

492
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: sort of deal with Porsche, for instance, I really do. No,

493
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: I've witnessed it firsthand, and what they do is I've

494
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: seen warehouses, walked in them, sat in these cars that

495
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: are so rare. Basically, what it is is these high

496
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: end execs they're given access to buy could be special

497
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: edition nine to eleven of some sorts. Right, they'll take

498
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: it to this warehouse and they'll stack it with ten,

499
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: twelve of their other cars that is not part of

500
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: their main collection. Right, So these are the rarest of

501
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: rare under super kind of security purposes. And god, I

502
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: know we've just come out of legal troubles and I

503
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: don't want to get into it again. But arguably what

504
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 1: that is is there. They call that their divorce account,

505
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: So it's stuff that when they go through a divorce.

506
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: It's somehow I don't know how, but it's somehow untrackable

507
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,959
Speaker 1: assets that was that is worth a lot of money.

508
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 1: So it's arguably fifteen to twenty million dollars worth of

509
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: cars easily sitting right there that can't be traced. Amazing, right,

510
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: I'm doing choir, Yeah, babe, it should be divorcing you.

511
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: It won't be the other way around.

512
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 2: In one of those yeah how's your young day NFT going?

513
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: I feel like you're empt.

514
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 2: It's on fire at the moment.

515
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: Yes, Gage, it's in Donna's garage.

516
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 2: God a lot of things are in Donna's garage. Yeah,

517
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 2: a lot, a lot.

518
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,719
Speaker 1: Are we ready? Are we ready for the review?

519
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's let's do it.

520
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: Oh is that where we're going now? Now that we're

521
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,400
Speaker 1: a new kind of we've got a new name, We're

522
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: a different sort of a podcast. Now we're all grown

523
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: up and professional and looking sweet. You've dropped your what

524
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: is iconic?

525
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, there you are.

526
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 5: The twenty twenty two Forward Ranger. Prices start from fifty

527
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 5: three thousand, six hundred eighty dollars for the double camp

528
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 5: pick up four by four to the range topping Raptor

529
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 5: at eighty six thousand, seven hundred ninety dollars plus on

530
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 5: road costs.

531
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: I am so impressed with these cars, so impressed. And

532
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: I guess this is kind of a double of Forward Ranger,

533
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: WildTrack and Raptor. You know. One thing I will say

534
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: is one of the reasons why we actually started this

535
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 1: podcast was like car journalists would piss me off. Everyone

536
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: was lying to here, all the cars of the year

537
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: and best affordable. It's all bullshit, it's all crap. But

538
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 1: News Corp threw down one of the more accurate ones

539
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: I've seen it in quite a long time where their

540
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 1: top three was Model hy Ford Ranger and bydo three.

541
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 2: Oh there you go. There you going to make sure

542
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 2: we cover all bases.

543
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was interesting one two out of those

544
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: three are electric cars. I've said to you many times

545
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 1: how impressed I am with the with the Ranger. It

546
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 1: is so well engineered. It's such a great car. I

547
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: hate to suck up to Paul so who will engineered,

548
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 1: but it's just put together so well.

549
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 2: And that's got to the point where you bought one, yes, yeah.

550
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 3: And the thing is as well that this car is

551
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 3: a vehicle that was designed and engineered here in Australia.

552
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: So Forward by yourself, did you have something to do

553
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 1: with just by the way.

554
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 2: So you know, Forward has enough.

555
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 3: You know, faith in Ford Australia to manage that program

556
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,719
Speaker 3: and including Everest, and these vehicles are sold in hundreds

557
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 3: of markets globally. It spawned the Amorock, which I'll be

558
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 3: driving soon, that shares a platform with it.

559
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, they really have gone to town on.

560
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 3: I'm just putting as much effort into this as they

561
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 3: can and for me, the Raptor takes it to the

562
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: next level. They kind of went from the previous gym,

563
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 3: which is a two leter sort of very slow but

564
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 3: sort of fun over jumps and stuff into into this

565
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 3: new one, which is a twin turbo V six petrol.

566
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 3: It absolutely hammers uses a lot of fuel, but that's okay. Yeah,

567
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 3: I bought one, so I actually collected it recently from

568
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 3: Medeki Ford in Port mcquarie.

569
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 2: What happened was, after.

570
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 3: We did the initial sort of predevelopment drive, I put

571
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 3: out on social that I wanted to buy one, and

572
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 3: when the pricing came out, I was like, yeah, I'm

573
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 3: fine with that.

574
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 2: I want to buy one, of.

575
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: Course, ent that oh what's that? Any hundred thousand.

576
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 3: Fun dealers can give me a car on the first allocation,

577
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 3: I'll order it through you. And my preference was a

578
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 3: regional dealer. So when George Medek reached out to me,

579
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 3: here we go.

580
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 1: I hope you're listening to George. Jesus paid off dividends.

581
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: Where's my raptor, George? Well, no, here's my raptor well mcquarie.

582
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 2: For George, it.

583
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 3: Was only interested in people that are known. So yeah, I.

584
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 1: Have got I've got a photos now mate. Yeah, but

585
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 1: your still you're using yours? Yeah, back in the day

586
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 1: when you were tanning yourself with a bottle of soy sauce.

587
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 2: It's my European olive skills.

588
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: That is really not what it is. That's long gone.

589
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 3: So he reached out and said, I'll give you my

590
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 3: personal allocation, which he'd ordered like a year prior, and

591
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 3: I said thank you, and I did a road trip

592
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 3: to Port mccraye to pick it up. They were great

593
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 3: to deal with, and what we did was we shot

594
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 3: a video explaining what pre delivery is because when you

595
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 3: get charge a dealer delivery fair.

596
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 2: Look at it.

597
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, what are you charging me two grand for?

598
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 3: And two grand is is what you should be paying.

599
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 3: Any more than that, you're getting ripped off. But basically,

600
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 3: the dealer delivery fee covers transport from the boat to

601
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 3: the dealer, depending on the car brands Summer obviously more

602
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 3: expensive than others, depending on where the dealer is.

603
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: What's interesting too, is like, yeah, I was going to

604
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: say that because it's too great, and that's going from

605
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: what arguably Sydney.

606
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 2: Depends, which.

607
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 3: So it covers that cost. Then what Medeki Ford does.

608
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 3: And I don't know if this is the same for

609
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 3: all dealers. I just looked at their process. They basically

610
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 3: do a sort of all points inspection under the car.

611
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 3: It goes up on a hoist, they check all the switches,

612
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,479
Speaker 3: the USB ports, all that sort of stuff.

613
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 2: They do a wheel alignment as well.

614
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 3: My car was slightly out on the front right wheel,

615
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 3: so they fix that up. It then goes out on

616
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 3: a test drive and then it gets a wash and

617
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 3: a detail. So for each car, it's basically a four

618
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 3: or five hour process to get it all done sort

619
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 3: of properly. And that is what you're paying for now.

620
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 3: That is the part that dealers have discretion over. So

621
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 3: when you basically go in there, they won't charge you

622
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 3: more than the recommended retail price and a new car,

623
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 3: but they can charge you more on dealer delivery. So

624
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 3: if you are seeing exorbitant fees on dealer delivery, that's

625
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 3: where they're making their margin off you.

626
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: F Yi, f yi, how's it going? How's it going

627
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: in the k Enjoy it great?

628
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 2: I love it? Yeah, it is really fun.

629
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 3: I love the sound, I love just everything I love

630
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 3: on the steering wheel, he can set the steering feel,

631
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 3: the exhaust with dampers like you can really just customize everything,

632
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 3: muck around with it.

633
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's really cool. I love it.

634
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: I genuinely enjoyed it. To me, the sweet spot though

635
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: in the range was the Wild Track to the point

636
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: where I put down in order myself, not a Mediki Ford, George,

637
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 1: if you want to help a bro out, we've mentioned

638
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: your name quite a few times, Badeki Ford, Paul cry George,

639
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: Wild Track good, thank you anyway. But for me, Yeah,

640
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: getting back to the Raptor though it is you've got

641
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: this ceramic gray one yepen pinted. I had the I

642
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: don't know what color, fire engine red. I like to

643
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: call it code.

644
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 3: Oh.

645
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: I loved it, loved it a little bit. It stands

646
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: out and it's got like that real American sort of red,

647
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: like that kind of it's just a bloody red truck

648
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: vibe about it, and it really is. It's a chunky car.

649
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: It's really set up really well. It's just a brilliant

650
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: car from start to finish. It's a car you can

651
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: obviously daily the thing that got me into this, and

652
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: the same with the WildTrack. I've got this feeling as well.

653
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: But it is the sort of car where you can

654
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: switch it on and you can go from one end

655
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,239
Speaker 1: of Australia to the other quite comfortably. You feel like

656
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: this car is capable as anything. It's really well put together.

657
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: There's nothing cheap about it. It's everything just works in cohesion.

658
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: And they've put a lot of thought into everything about this,

659
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: like the interior, just little things like you could rest

660
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: your arm on the side of the door and it

661
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: kind of looks like from a distance, I guess it

662
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: looks like a leatherish kind of material, but if you

663
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: get up close, it's like a squidgy kind of wet

664
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: suit that everything can be wiped down, you know what

665
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: I mean. Like, it's just kind of everything feels quality. Stitching, steering,

666
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 1: driver position. It doesn't feel I mean, for me, I

667
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: thought I was going to be driving an absolute monster

668
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: of a car. Sorry, but it doesn't feel like a

669
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: monster car. It just it feels like you're easy card

670
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: to drive around.

671
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 3: I like the safety teke as well. They've got a

672
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 3: feature with the blind spot monitor. You get into the

673
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 3: length of the trailer and then the blind spot monitor

674
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 3: will take into account the length of the trailer, so

675
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 3: when someone comes into the blind spot of the trailer,

676
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 3: you're not accidentally going to merge into them. And yeah,

677
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 3: they all of the cars as well can be optioned

678
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 3: or come standard with an integrated brake controller as well,

679
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 3: so you don't need to get that fitted on your own,

680
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 3: which costs money.

681
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: How do you go driving into a shopping center? Do

682
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: you have to squaw? I had to screw the unscrew

683
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 1: the aerial, But I mean, I think, what's the deal

684
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: because the sharkfin aerial will be fine. But that Yeah,

685
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: but well then you've got that big thing that sticks.

686
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 2: Out, that that thing bends. That's not an issue. So

687
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: you'll find with that.

688
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's more just if you're reversing into a hard object.

689
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 3: They're a bit stupid, mind you. A wraptor caught on

690
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 3: fire the other day. I saw a video of a

691
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 3: white one burning to the ground. And then yeah, there's

692
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 3: been a lot of issues with drive shaft vibrations and

693
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: stuff like that, so in the V sixers, So I'll

694
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 3: be keeping an eye on it just to see how

695
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 3: they go with reliability.

696
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 2: Hopefully they're not shit.

697
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: See how you go with that. The wild track was

698
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: was the same. I think everything's well put together. The

699
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: interior is great on it.

700
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: The V six diesel is good.

701
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I loved it. It doesn't feel like too

702
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: noisy and like Radley kind of thing. It just feels

703
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: like what they've put up the front is something very capable.

704
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: I put an order into and I got quoted October

705
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: next year, so I'm not liking that about it.

706
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: It's only a year away.

707
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think those times will come down, and I

708
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 3: suggest you try a regional dealer as well.

709
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: What's his name from Medickie for George, Hey bro, I'm

710
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: in Sydney. I mean he's even quicker, bloody trip.

711
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 2: Well, when you're driving there in your BYD, I'll drive there.

712
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 1: In the BYD and pick it up.

713
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 2: I'll pick up the fuck.

714
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 1: Don't you dare say that about the by D. That's

715
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: one of the greatest electric cars of the year. It is.

716
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: It's a good car, according to News Corp, which I

717
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: think they I think they did it. I think they

718
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 1: did okay this year.

719
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 2: But look they gave the win to the Model. Y Yeah,

720
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 2: they did the.

721
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: Model Why god God, that's an ugly looking Although my

722
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: brother in law shout out to him. He bought a

723
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: brand Newie and he wrapped it in Matt black, which

724
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: I thought was. I was like, oh okay, and then

725
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 1: I saw it and it's not half shit. It's pretty good.

726
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: It's actually, to be honest, it's probably the best thing

727
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: you can do to that car.

728
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, aside from not buy it.

729
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it looks it looked way better with that

730
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: sort of thing. And they'd gone to the effort of

731
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 1: I think they that the t logo was in glass.

732
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,839
Speaker 2: Glass black, just to make it stand out.

733
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kid kill all touches actually, just very quickly

734
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,760
Speaker 3: on elbows. He bought one and sold it after five days.

735
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 2: He hated the ride.

736
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 3: It was terrible, so I told him not to get

737
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 3: it with the twenties. Even the nineteens of the ride

738
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 3: is terrible. The twenties it is unbearably bad.

739
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: So look, it's it can be arguably it is a

740
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,919
Speaker 1: little bit stiff, but then you have a terrible case

741
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: of hemorrhoids.

742
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,000

Speaker 3: know what you think of the new name and Gordy's

758
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:06,879
Speaker 3: pixelated picture.

759
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 1: By the way, it's only pixelated because because of this studio, right,

760
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:11,879
Speaker 1: because it's been blown up so big.

761
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 3: But anyone would think that you've shrunk that a little

762
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 3: bit to make yourself look thinner in comparison to the

763
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,720
Speaker 3: slender beast next to you.

764
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is that on your polo?

765
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 2: Shit?

766
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: I want to say it's the logo, but I think

767
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: that's actually a bit of mayonnaise or a bit of dinner.

768
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 1: I can't tell. It's not like a bloody dinosaur with

769
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: a walking is god? Yes, that looks like a toddler

770
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:40,120
