    Land Rover Defender 130 review; Can Airline Seating Get Any Worse; J.D. Power Study Yields Surprising Results

    The Land Rover Defender is the direct descendant of the original Land Rover that was launched in 1948.  We spend a week behind the wheel of this modern wonder.  Can airline seating get any worse?  We take a look at what obligations the Federal Aviation Administration and the nation's airlines have toward passengers on this issue.  Finally, surprising results from the most recent J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, which measures things gone wrong in new vehicles during the first 90 days of ownership.

    Cars for the Clueless

    Cars for the Clueless

    Tony and Mike discuss cars that *may be bought by default for reasons beyond talent alone.  You know – the trinket, the must have, the be seen in.  And at the other end, cars that are bought because everyone learns in them.  Yes, Nissan Micra, you. I’ve also looked at Citroen’s new Ami while Mike has driven a converted 2CV.  Fear not though, that’s somewhat countered by Chevy LS and Rover V8s.All that and a seasoning of other things in this week’s Car-Chum.

    Ford Mustang Mach-E, Los Angeles Auto Show

    Ford Mustang Mach-E, Los Angeles Auto Show

    Host Tom Appel and co-host Damon Bell start the show with a discussion of the 2021 Mustang Mach-E, Ford's ground-breaking (and provocatively named) new pure-electric crossover SUV. We then chat about Damon's test vehicle this week: the 2020 Mazda 3 AWD hatchback. Next, co-host Jill Ciminillo calls in live from the Los Angeles Auto Show and gives us the scoop on the news-making new vehicles on display at the show--including the Mustang Mach-E, Land Rover Defender, Kia Seltos, and Toyota RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid. Damon gives a run-down of the articles posted this week on The Daily Drive blog, including L.A. Auto Show coverage and a look behind the scenes of the new Ford v Ferrari movie. We wrap up the show with a tricky quiz on new Chevrolet pickup-truck prices.
