Most Fun Family Cars, Letting Go Of Emotions, Quantifying Track Records | Episode 1,017

For Topic Tuesday, the guys create self-imposed rules for themselves, and choose fun cars for families at each price point up to $100K. They debate fun commute choices for Josh in MI, who wants something new and is having trouble letting go of his current car. Then, John in SD is mulling over a truck & trailer for towing the track car, but wonders if it’s the right choice. Social media questions ask about Subaru’s concepts that are an ongoing tease, and what’s the best metric to quantify the performance of a car if you haven’t driven it?
