Check out HONK’s Get Hooked podcast, all about electric vehicles (EVs)! There are 2.4 million EVs on the road today, and 39% of people are considering buying one. Is your towing and roadside business prepared to support these new electric vehicles? Listen to this episode to pick up a few tips and tricks for towing EVs from tow truck expert Chris Young of Parkway Consulting and podcast hosts Dennis McGowan and Shelli Hawkins.  

Towing and roadside jobs for EVs are not more complex than traditional gas-powered vehicles. Tow professionals just need to follow a slightly different set of procedures for these jobs. As vehicles evolve, so must the towing and roadside procedures we follow. 

Here are a few things you’ll learn during the podcast. 1) Why it’s crucial to use 8-point connection points and how to follow the manufacturers' recommendations tow eyelet use. 2) Why you should invest in EV/Hybrid training to keep your tow operators in the know. 3) The benefits of documenting what you’re doing to these vehicles and how to protect yourself from unwarranted damage claims. And much more!

Do you want to attend EV Training? HONK worked with Wreckmaster to provide the towing and roadside community a $15 discount off their Hybrid/EV Awareness online training course. Listen to the podcast to get your promo code.

In this episode, recorded live from ETI ToolTech 2021 in Austin Texas, we speak to Dirk Fooks, the Director of Technical Programs & Services at I-CAR.

The repair industry is facing a fundamental change, unlike anything it's seen in its history. 

This is different than the move from carburetors to fuel injection or the introduction of onboard diagnostic systems.

Instead, this is a move that completely changes the vehicle's mode of propulsion. 

As the internal combustion engine is phased out, training becomes imperative for the automotive service professional. 

But, what about the shops that decide they don’t need to bother?

What about those that are willing to work on electric vehicles, but haven't invested in proper tooling or training? 

Is the solution more government regulation? 

Dirk proposes a solution to the problem of under-equipped, untrained shops flooding the market with poorly executed, cut-rate services.

Host Tom Appel and co-hosts Jill Ciminillo and Damon Bell start off the show by discussing Hyundai's recent unveiling of the redesigned 2021 Elantra, and the car's striking new styling. Jill fills us in on her press-preview drive of the 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid. Collectible Automobile magazine Editor-in-Chief John Biel is in-studio next to chat about the great features in the June 2020 issue, including a profile of pioneering female drag racer Shirley Shahan Bridges--the "Drag-On Lady"--and a retrospective on the 1968-70 Plymouth intermediate cars. Tom has another quiz for the gang, this time on automotive advertising slogans, and Damon runs down the latest articles on the Consumer Guide Daily Drive blog. We close out the show by recalling the first hybrid vehicles we ever drove.
