On this week’s livestream, Publisher Tim Esterdahl and Managing Editor Jill Ciminillo start the conversation by digging into the ongoing UAW agreement woes. This drama-filled voting process has revealed deep divides on how some members see the agreement, who really wins and who really loses in the deal.
Next, a leaked report by TFL EV reveals a variety of specs for the new Tesla Cybertruck set to be delivered to customers soon. This often-delayed and controversial truck has changed since its dramatic reveal more than four years ago. The specs, if accurate, reveal a truck that’s smaller and less capable than promised.
Finally, Esterdahl and Ciminillo discuss the latest news on the Toyota Tundra remote start SNAFU and how remote start should work. There’s a lot of discussion about remote start systems overall as well as the controversial monthly subscription fees to enable the system in some vehicles.
It is worth noting, Esterdahl does a Truck News Recap on Fridays. This gives viewers an opportunity to enter a raffle to win some swag as well as catch up on all the news they might of missed.
