This week, the guys take a closer look at two under-represented new cars on sale today. First up, Benjamin drives the 2023 Toyota Sequoia, which is built on the mediocre bones of the Tundra full-size pickup, and carries over some of the same puzzling design decisions. Does it have any chance at bumping up its annual sales numbers or even stealing the spotlight of its competitors? Then Sami talks about the 2023 Ford Escape PHEV, which is often overshadowed by Ford with its own Bronco Sport. While it boasts decent EV range and efficiency, Sami is eager to point out that the Escape has a few fatal flaws.
The guys also discuss some listener questions, so be sure to send us your question after listening to this week's episode!
