Speaker 1: The Driver's Show powered by in a midsoon Nano Taylor
0:03
Speaker 1: to oil over a century of engineering excellence meets cutting
0:07
Speaker 1: edge nanoscale technology.
0:09
Speaker 2: They've given a couple of cars Japanese models, getting the
0:11
Speaker 2: ass quickly google that that was bad terminology, that Paul Gordon, So.
0:28
Speaker 3: There will be I'm sure a lovely person who works
0:34
Speaker 3: for BYD and you know who you are, And what
0:40
Speaker 3: I'll say right now is quietly put your headphones down
0:45
Speaker 3: because I know you're listening to this at your computer.
0:47
Speaker 3: Take yourself to the boardroom. Ask yourself why you gave
0:53
Speaker 3: my smiling dickhead friend a pre production car?
0:58
Speaker 2: Did someone else get one as well? What do you mean?
1:01
Speaker 2: Oh you said smiling dickhead for a No, I don't know.

1:17
Speaker 3: you feel good about.
1:18
Speaker 2: Yourself well telling the truth, being honest. I guess it
1:23
Speaker 2: pays off, not as much as being an influencer, but
1:27
Speaker 2: it does pay off eventually.
1:28
Speaker 3: Oh oh, a little spiky wacky there. So we'll get
1:33
Speaker 3: into that little backstory a little bit later on, including
1:37
Speaker 3: a quick chat about the BYD Shark six, which Paul
1:39
Speaker 3: put on YouTube it cannot go up a Hill and
1:42
Speaker 3: various other things. I've test driven it myself. We might
1:46
Speaker 3: have some slight conflicting thoughts, we might have some things
1:51
Speaker 3: we agree on to, which would be nice. In the meantime,
1:54
Speaker 3: after last episode where you said I was uncultural because
2:00
Speaker 3: I didn't know what non can I just say, I
2:05
Speaker 3: had to give a big shout.

Speaker 2: We're a car podcast.
4:02
Speaker 3: Yeah. How's your holiday? Welcome back, Welcome to twenty twenty five.
4:06
Speaker 2: Yes, it was good, A lot of family stuff. I
4:10
Speaker 2: was driving the Lexus GX. I was on holiday, which boys,
4:14
Speaker 2: I do love that car. It is a sensational machine.
4:17
Speaker 2: I was able to go bush for some camping.
4:19
Speaker 3: Okay, camping, okay, I was able to thought that was
4:23
Speaker 3: a dinner reference.
4:25
Speaker 2: I was able to do a little off road drive
4:28
Speaker 2: to a lake and there were lots of flies. So
4:31
Speaker 2: I turned around and left, and yeah, it was horrendously inefficient.
4:36
Speaker 2: It was using something like sixteen liters per hundred k's.
4:39
Speaker 2: But you know, I'm okay with that.
4:41
Speaker 3: It's kidded out. Well, yeah, it's a beautiful car, it
4:43
Speaker 3: really is. It's got the it's got the fridge in
4:45
Speaker 3: the middle thing, right, Yes, yeah, you had this last year.
4:49
Speaker 3: Well not this, yeah, yeah, yeah, but.
4:52
Speaker 2: This time I had it just over the Christmas break.
4:53
Speaker 3: So well, I see your lexus and I raise you literally, yeah,
5:01
Speaker 3: are you ready? A Chevy Silverado that's zeta.
5:04
Speaker 2: Too bigy They are a good rig.
5:06
Speaker 3: Holy heck. That was now. I made it, literally and
5:12
Speaker 3: I had that. They were really good. Shout out to
5:14
Speaker 3: Chevy because they were really kind to me. They gave
5:16
Speaker 3: that to me for nearly two months. And I am
5:18
Speaker 3: telling you right now, I was king of the fucking world.
5:24
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm getting respect on the road that I deserve.
5:28
Speaker 3: People move out of the way. In fact, it's an
5:31
Speaker 3: event when I drive past. It's look at that car.
5:35
Speaker 2: He must have a big penis. The girls were queuing
5:41
Speaker 2: up to see how little it was. They theyre girometer
5:44
Speaker 2: out they were like, holy yeah.
5:46
Speaker 3: She was just like is that clitous?
5:50
Speaker 4: Like, hey, you leave my little crayon alone.
5:54
Speaker 3: Leave there's a little knock it alone. We'll touch your
5:57
Speaker 3: little chinnoto. Yeah. Mate. It was just epic. It was
6:03
Speaker 3: so good. I think I realized I truly love a
6:07
Speaker 3: car when I'd just make myself a coffee in the
6:09
Speaker 3: morning and I just walk out in my front door
6:13
Speaker 3: and I'm looking at it in my driveway, just with
6:16
Speaker 3: my open robe, watching the neighbors go past, and they're like,
6:21
Speaker 3: god's nice morning, Stiffy my out.
6:24
Speaker 4: Clint Eastwood, Yes, get off my lawn, And I'm like, like,
6:30
Speaker 4: I'd look at the front, I'd be like, yes, that
6:32
Speaker 4: car is gangster, is anything?
6:34
Speaker 3: Then I look at the back. Yeah, big Chevy logo
6:37
Speaker 3: in the back, so much room, The fucking set of
6:41
Speaker 3: console was as big as my coffee table. It's you know,
6:44
Speaker 3: it's weird because a big six point two liter V eight.
6:48
Speaker 3: The two things I was worried about, which were fuel,
6:51
Speaker 3: fuel consumption and parking. One, I'll say, the parking is
6:56
Speaker 3: so bloody easy in this car. It's the easiest big
7:00
Speaker 3: I've ever driven. In fact, this is easier to park
7:04
Speaker 3: than most small cars like it's it's incredibly like I
7:08
Speaker 3: did try. Having said that footnote little asterix, I did
7:11
Speaker 3: try to park here at the studios here once with it,
7:16
Speaker 3: and the height restriction I think is about two point
7:21
Speaker 3: one in that particular car park, and it would have
7:25
Speaker 3: like literally like I could feel the bar. It was
7:28
Speaker 3: like probably ten mil off it right, but it wasn't
7:33
Speaker 3: so much that it's the width of this thing. And
7:35
Speaker 3: then I physically couldn't get it down there. I was like,
7:38
Speaker 3: this is I can't do it. But so I did
7:41
Speaker 3: have to go home and take an uber in but
7:44
Speaker 3: that was only once. But yeah, look I did a
7:46
Speaker 3: lot of I did a lot of kilometers in this
7:48
Speaker 3: and it was just epic. It was so good. It was,
7:52
Speaker 3: as I said, easy to park. Obviously. Maybe this is
7:55
Speaker 3: made for a trading not for some little five foot
7:58
Speaker 3: seven idiot who sits down and talk into a stick.
8:00
Speaker 3: This is for you know. I just wish I fucking
8:04
Speaker 3: wanted to move Regional because of this car. That's how
8:06
Speaker 3: good it is. The I thought the fuel rock might
8:09
Speaker 3: have a job going. Yeah it doesn't rock it Okay
8:13
Speaker 3: rocks baby, he used to work it there. Yeah, so
8:16
Speaker 3: it's I think the fuel consumption was pretty good. I'm
8:19
Speaker 3: not quite sure.
8:20
Speaker 2: The highway it's actually not that bad, not too bad.
8:23
Speaker 3: I think it's a round about thirteen point eight right,
8:26
Speaker 3: which fuck when you think about it, My super ru
8:28
Speaker 3: was about twelve point eight. Ye, so I remember I
8:32
Speaker 3: filled it up, say Sydney to Port mcquarie was. I
8:35
Speaker 3: filled it up just before I left, and then half
8:39
Speaker 3: a tank to get to Port McQuary, which is four
8:41
Speaker 3: and a half hours round about four hundred and fifty
8:43
Speaker 3: k's so that's not too bad. Half a tank, use
8:46
Speaker 3: the other half to sort of cruise around Port McQuary.
8:50
Speaker 3: No one'sine too much of a fuckinary in Burton McQuary,
8:53
Speaker 3: that's for sure. And yeah, filled it up just before
8:57
Speaker 3: I left. One hundred and sixty bucks. It's not bad.
9:01
Speaker 2: What fuel this is the other thing people kind of
9:06
Speaker 2: bitch and moan about how expensive fuel is over the
9:09
Speaker 2: Christmas break it was cheap. It was like a dollar
9:11
Speaker 2: sixty for regular unleaded. I just got a note that
9:15
Speaker 2: my electricity was going up by twenty percent for fuck
9:20
Speaker 2: knows what reason, no reason at all, no reason, and
9:23
Speaker 2: I charge an EV at home.
9:24
Speaker 3: So they were just saying because we can.
9:26
Speaker 2: It's just like, yeah, cause so, yeah, I think that
9:29
Speaker 2: really these things are very affordable to drive around if
9:31
Speaker 2: you do want to, and if I go to the States,
9:34
Speaker 2: I will always get a pickup truck because you just
9:37
Speaker 2: blend in with the crowd. And like you said, they
9:40
Speaker 2: are really not that impractical. Yes, if you're driving into
9:42
Speaker 2: the city every day and needing to park, that's a
9:44
Speaker 2: different story. But if you live in the burbs and
9:46
Speaker 2: you're driving this on a weekend, it really is a
9:49
Speaker 2: perfectly fine vehicle to home.
9:50
Speaker 3: If you don't have to park in the city, and
9:52
Speaker 3: parking in the city is a bitch for a small car,
9:54
Speaker 3: let's be honest. But if you don't have to do
9:57
Speaker 3: that and you're just a normal day to day this
9:59
Speaker 3: is like I honestly would say, if you're looking at
10:03
Speaker 3: a ute rethink something like this, because yeah, their size
10:06
Speaker 3: is incredible. It's a great looking car. I mean, I
10:08
Speaker 3: think it's roughly about one hundred and thirty thousand, not
10:12
Speaker 3: too bad like the Raptors. What one hundred and ten.
10:14
Speaker 2: Is one hundred about ninety ish?
10:17
Speaker 3: Okay, way off, ye look, splash out the extra cash
10:20
Speaker 3: because it's so good. It's such a great cars. Big
10:22
Speaker 3: shout out to Chevy for that, because I bloody loved
10:25
Speaker 3: every second of that one. So yeah, my holiday was good.
10:29
Speaker 3: My holiday was good. You know, twenty twenty five, it's
10:34
Speaker 3: the year of redundancies and especially doubt.
10:38
Speaker 2: It's something you need to tell me.
10:39
Speaker 3: Well, Mitsubishi have decided, don't worry about the employees. Let's
10:44
Speaker 3: just like give a couple of models the ass. They're oh, sorry,
10:47
Speaker 3: that was bad terminology?
10:50
Speaker 2: You can do? You wonder if what?
10:52
Speaker 3: Sorry? Yeah, I think that that's on. That's on Paul's
10:55
Speaker 3: bloody uporn search in a couple of.
11:00
Speaker 2: Cars Japanese models getting the ass, Just quickly google that.
11:05
Speaker 3: Wait, I've got a good loop for that.
11:07
Speaker 2: It means is the is it the nano tailored oil
11:14
Speaker 2: zero W twenty or the five W thirty.
11:17
Speaker 3: I'd definitely go the gold standard.
11:19
Speaker 2: Let me let me bring it out.
11:21
Speaker 3: What we're trying to say is, yeah, Mitsubishi have acted
11:25
Speaker 3: quite a few models off the top of my head.
11:28
Speaker 2: Let me explain why first. Okay, yeah, it's not just
11:30
Speaker 2: like they go, well, you know.
11:31
Speaker 3: They're not selling new and you me so, there's an.
11:35
Speaker 2: Australian design rule called ninety eight double zero and it
11:38
Speaker 2: comes into effect for all new models on sale from
11:41
Speaker 2: March one to twenty twenty five, so that's just around
11:43
Speaker 2: the corner. And it outlines specific performance requirements for AEB systems,
11:48
Speaker 2: so that is the tech that stops the car if
11:50
Speaker 2: you don't. So while Mitsubishi has AEB on these vehicles
11:54
Speaker 2: that are getting canceled, they don't meet the requirements for
11:56
Speaker 2: the new regulation. So basically the cars that are affected
11:59
Speaker 2: it it's crazy. The current AX Eclipse Cross Eclipse Cross,
12:03
Speaker 2: plug in hype and the Pagero Sport.
12:07
Speaker 3: It's like you have acted, Oh, they are getting rid
12:10
Speaker 3: of the Pagero Sport, but this is the thing.
12:12
Speaker 2: It's temporary because there's a new Pagero Sport coming and
12:15
Speaker 2: presumably they will retro fit some of these other models
12:18
Speaker 2: with the technology. We've recently heard as well that they're
12:21
Speaker 2: replacing the AX with a Reno.
12:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I thought my understanding was Reno was taking
12:28
Speaker 3: that that whole thing, weren't they.
12:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's basically getting replaced with an AX that
12:35
Speaker 2: in Europe is basically a rebadged Captor. So it's it
12:41
Speaker 2: is a weird one that I just do not get
12:43
Speaker 2: Mitsubishi at the moment.
12:45
Speaker 3: It's just in all sorts new Triton. I haven't driven
12:49
Speaker 3: that yet. I'll be driving that soon, but yeah, it
12:52
Speaker 3: looks good, but it's It's one of those things with Mitsubishi.
12:57
Speaker 3: I just wanted to love what they've put out the
13:00
Speaker 3: last couple of years. We've owned some in the past
13:02
Speaker 3: as a family, and I quite like the old school Trials,
13:05
Speaker 3: even the Bajero, but it's just not what it used
13:07
Speaker 3: to be. Yeah, so yeah, looks to watch this space
13:10
Speaker 3: from Mitsubishi. Hey, I meant to ask you, what did
13:13
Speaker 3: you think. Did you see the R thirty two, the
13:17
Speaker 3: GTR they've I guess retro fitted if you liked, They've
13:21
Speaker 3: pulled the guts out of it and put in a
13:24
Speaker 3: whole bunch of EV motors and batteries and turned it
13:27
Speaker 3: into an EV.
13:29
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well that went down like a lead balloon, because
13:33
Speaker 2: that car deserves anything but an electric drive train. But anyway,
13:38
Speaker 2: they stuck one in there. Anyway, So basically two electric
13:41
Speaker 2: motors that output a total of three hundred and twenty
13:43
Speaker 2: kilowats and seven hundred and eighty newton meters. Now it
13:46
Speaker 2: sounds impressive, but you talked to a lot of people
13:50
Speaker 2: that tune these these the RB twenty six. You can
13:54
Speaker 2: get like a thousand horsepower out of some of these cars.
13:56
Speaker 2: You can get incredible power and talk figures and they
13:59
Speaker 2: seem to have got on with numbers that are okay,
14:01
Speaker 2: but it's literally the same output you get out of
14:03
Speaker 2: a BYD Shark. So it's like, okay, what is the
14:06
Speaker 2: purpose of all this? And it's seventeen hundred kilos compared
14:10
Speaker 2: to fourteen hundred for the non electric one.
14:12
Speaker 3: There's a lot of great engineering that went into that car,
14:14
Speaker 3: so it's iconic for a reason. And to kind of
14:17
Speaker 3: do something like this, to spend money on something like this,
14:20
Speaker 3: which I don't think that. I mean, that's a true
14:22
Speaker 3: fanboy car.
14:24
Speaker 2: This it is in dire straits at the moment.
14:26
Speaker 3: But that's my argument. Right, So most of the general
14:29
Speaker 3: public couldn't give a shit about this. But you're like,
14:32
Speaker 3: you're looking at merging with who is it? Is it
14:34
Speaker 3: Mazda or Honda Honda? Right, So if you're looking at
14:38
Speaker 3: a merger, if you're in financial troubles and you're doing
14:40
Speaker 3: stuff like this, come on, mate, I don't know. To me,
14:44
Speaker 3: that was a bit like it just seems strange.
14:47
Speaker 2: It's a no from me.
14:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, big fat no. Tell you what else is it?
14:52
Speaker 2: No?
14:52
Speaker 3: Stealing Holden's with T toys. You did a video on this.
14:56
Speaker 3: I want to take me through it.
14:58
Speaker 2: Okay, So, Jenna of this is I know a lot
15:01
Speaker 2: of people that have late model Holden so vf hsvs
15:05
Speaker 2: and SS Comodols, and basically I kept hearing about how
15:11
Speaker 2: a lot of these were getting stolen, and I thought
15:13
Speaker 2: it was just a bit of a thieves taking stuff.
15:18
Speaker 2: Then last year police busted a big syndicate that was
15:22
Speaker 2: basically rebirthing a lot of these cars, and it all
15:26
Speaker 2: started up again recently, as maybe six months ago. I
15:30
Speaker 2: started doing some digging and discovered that thieves are using
15:35
Speaker 2: a tool off Timu or eBay and two hundred bucks
15:38
Speaker 2: worth that is able to basically reprogram keys on a car.
15:42
Speaker 3: Now, can I pause you on this because remember when
15:45
Speaker 3: we had our bows on the show, do we talk
15:46
Speaker 3: about something.
15:47
Speaker 2: Like this, Yes, But the difference here is that they've
15:50
Speaker 2: teamed that device with I guess a security floor in
15:54
Speaker 2: the Comodore or that series of Comodol, which is the
15:57
Speaker 2: location of the horn cabling the thieves are able to do.
16:00
Speaker 2: The horn cabling is located inside the wheel arch. They're
16:03
Speaker 2: able to cut through the wheel arch protector and cut
16:06
Speaker 2: the horn cable. So when they then jam a screwdriver
16:09
Speaker 2: into your door handle, the alarm goes off, but all
16:12
Speaker 2: it does is flash lights. It doesn't actually make a
16:14
Speaker 2: sound because you've cut the horn cable. Now they're also
16:17
Speaker 2: getting around with towels that they put over the lights,
16:20
Speaker 2: so when they cut your horn cable, open your car,
16:24
Speaker 2: you don't see any flashing at all. Then within a
16:26
Speaker 2: matter of minutes they delete your keys, program a new
16:29
Speaker 2: set and see you later. Now, a lot of these
16:31
Speaker 2: cars are now getting stripped and dumped on the side
16:34
Speaker 2: of the road, and it's a big problem now so far,
16:39
Speaker 2: based on the research that I've done, you've got a
16:41
Speaker 2: mixture of junkies taking the cars and enjoy riding, and
16:44
Speaker 2: junkies taking the cars probably getting paid in drugs and
16:47
Speaker 2: giving them to the new syndicate that's taken over from
16:50
Speaker 2: the guy that's in jail at the moment. And during
16:54
Speaker 2: the break, a guy reach out to me on Instagram
16:57
Speaker 2: and he wanted to give me more information, so I
17:02
Speaker 2: met up with him.
17:03
Speaker 3: Did you did you meet up in a trench coat
17:05
Speaker 3: and a hat?
17:06
Speaker 2: No?
17:07
Speaker 3: In a car park, but I've seen you do that
17:09
Speaker 3: and that's on our website.
17:12
Speaker 2: Met up with these guys and let's just say, they
17:14
Speaker 2: have a huge amount of information on where these cars
17:18
Speaker 2: are going, everything that's happening, where they were going, how
17:23
Speaker 2: they're getting distributed, how they're rebirthing some of these cars
17:26
Speaker 2: with loopholes through vic Rhodes.
17:28
Speaker 3: So they met up with you and they're part of
17:30
Speaker 3: they're part of this.
17:30
Speaker 2: So I don't think they're part of it. Then they're
17:33
Speaker 2: not part of it.
17:33
Speaker 3: But take time to know one though. Right, Yeah, I'm
17:37
Speaker 3: just you're so you don't get okay. So, by the way, everyone,
17:40
Speaker 3: if there is no other episode after this poll's been
17:43
Speaker 3: fucking I'm.
17:44
Speaker 2: More worried about their safety because from the sounds of it,
17:46
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people involved, and if people know
17:49
Speaker 2: that others are talking that have knowledge, that their safety
17:52
Speaker 2: could be at risk. Now, Gordy ask me, what did
17:55
Speaker 2: I do with this information?
17:57
Speaker 3: Hey, Pavlain, what did you do with this information? I'm
17:59
Speaker 3: going to I guess you put it on a website
18:01
Speaker 3: called carrencxt No.
18:02
Speaker 2: I told the police that I have two guys that
18:04
Speaker 2: are willing to tell you everything, but they want some protection.
18:08
Speaker 2: Can you please get in touch.
18:10
Speaker 3: And some money. No money with us, no reward with
18:13
Speaker 3: a little taste of the honey for making some arrests.
18:16
Speaker 3: So Gordy, ask me what happened? What happened?
18:19
Speaker 2: So fourteen days ago this happened. Not one response from
18:23
Speaker 2: them after acknowledging as the cops. Yep, they acknowledged it
18:27
Speaker 2: and said they'd get in touch. No one responded. So
18:30
Speaker 2: that kind of annoys me because it's the perception. After
18:34
Speaker 2: we published our first video where we detailed all of this,
18:37
Speaker 2: the perception from commenters is that the police aren't doing anything.
18:41
Speaker 2: They're not taking it seriously.
18:42
Speaker 3: Oh my god. And guess it actually seems like the
18:44
Speaker 3: police aren't doing anything.
18:46
Speaker 2: So look, I don't want to point any fingers, but
18:48
Speaker 2: what I did get from the police after we published
18:50
Speaker 2: our video is they basically chewed my ass out, and
18:54
Speaker 2: not in the nice way, regarding a number that we
18:58
Speaker 2: got wrong from a press release that they did. And
19:01
Speaker 2: I'm like, gold on, So you have sent me this
19:03
Speaker 2: long ass email bitching and moaning about a number that's wrong.
19:07
Speaker 2: You won't acknowledge that people need assistance here They keep
19:11
Speaker 2: referring to third parties and in fact I reached out
19:14
Speaker 2: to Holden as well and I said, hey, guys, what's
19:16
Speaker 2: going on, Like, you guys still sell cars in Australia
19:18
Speaker 2: through Chevrolet and Cadillac and all this sort of stuff.
19:21
Speaker 2: What are you actually doing about it? And they sent
19:23
Speaker 2: me a really piss week response that was basically along
19:27
Speaker 2: the lines of yes, we're awhere, this is happening, and
19:30
Speaker 2: it's using third party tools that shouldn't be used that way.
19:34
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, but can you fix it?
19:37
Speaker 3: Well they're not the police, Paul.
19:39
Speaker 2: No, but this is the thing you trade off.
19:41
Speaker 3: You've got to realize that that was written by some
19:44
Speaker 3: twenty three year old pr chick who's clinging on to
19:47
Speaker 3: a job.
19:49
Speaker 2: I think that comes from someone in the company that
19:52
Speaker 2: is able to make a statement. So you've got these
19:56
Speaker 2: this company that has written on the coattails of success
19:59
Speaker 2: in Australia, take a lot of money from Australian customers,
20:02
Speaker 2: taking money from the government and taxpayers. There is a
20:05
Speaker 2: major security floor where people are getting like ten or
20:07
Speaker 2: twenty of these stolen a day. It is huge in
20:10
Speaker 2: terms of volume just out of Melbourne alone, and nothing's
20:13
Speaker 2: getting done. And you put your you know your business
20:16
Speaker 2: hat on and you go, well, they currently operate ac
20:19
Speaker 2: Delco in Australia, which is the genuine parts and servicing
20:22
Speaker 2: for Holden's. Would you not go, hey, We're going to
20:24
Speaker 2: come up with a fix for this to make it
20:26
Speaker 2: so the shitty security on this doesn't allow someone with
20:29
Speaker 2: a tool off team to come and change your keys,
20:32
Speaker 2: and if you come and service your car using genuine parts,
20:35
Speaker 2: we'll do this free charge.
20:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I would.
20:38
Speaker 2: If there'll be a ten minute job to update firmware.
20:41
Speaker 3: So I mean, could there be something could there be
20:46
Speaker 3: something in that that like once they sort of open
20:48
Speaker 3: that door, it could lead to like lawsuits.
20:50
Speaker 2: Or look, I'm sure it could, but the perception at
20:53
Speaker 2: the moment is they're not doing anything and it doesn't
20:54
Speaker 2: look like that. I'm sure they're dealing with the police.
20:56
Speaker 2: They would be dealing with the police at the moment.
20:58
Speaker 2: But if the police pointing the finger at them, they're
21:02
Speaker 2: pointing the finger at this thing off timu who's actually
21:06
Speaker 2: fixing this? Like is it vigilante groups? Who's actually stopping
21:10
Speaker 2: this from happening? So anyway, that video went crazy, you
21:12
Speaker 2: got like half a million views. We're about to do
21:14
Speaker 2: a follow up on this other thing that I found
21:17
Speaker 2: which completely blew me away. So I walked out to
21:19
Speaker 2: our car park and I had heard about cloned plates,
21:23
Speaker 2: and I saw these two just junkies. One was a
21:27
Speaker 2: slapper and the other one was just some methed out idiot.
21:30
Speaker 3: What a slapper, hey, like a UK nineteen eighties londoner.
21:36
Speaker 3: Come here, your bloody old slapper.
21:39
Speaker 2: Anyway, So they're frantically walking around this vault so I
21:42
Speaker 2: can golf in our car park, just like you know,
21:45
Speaker 2: when they're just methed out of their heads. And I'm like,
21:48
Speaker 2: what the fuck are they doing? And I looked at
21:50
Speaker 2: the regio and I checked the REGI on the VIC
21:52
Speaker 2: Rhodes website and it just showed that it was registered
21:54
Speaker 2: and current, and I'm like, okay, a bit weird. And
21:57
Speaker 2: thirty minutes later, my colleague came out and it was
21:59
Speaker 2: at about six pm, and he saw them carrying computers
22:02
Speaker 2: from this business they were parked next to into their car,
22:05
Speaker 2: and I'm like, all right, they're clearly stealing that stuff.
22:07
Speaker 2: He called the police. So what happened was he took
22:11
Speaker 2: some photos of the car before they came out with
22:12
Speaker 2: the computers, and what they've done is every car has
22:16
Speaker 2: a vin on display on the windscreen, and newer cars
22:19
Speaker 2: they had put papers there to make it look like
22:21
Speaker 2: they just put receipts there so you couldn't see the VN.
22:24
Speaker 2: The reason they'd done that is because they cloned the plates.
22:27
Speaker 2: What they did was they looked for another gray, oh sorry,
22:30
Speaker 2: another brown Volkswagen Golf somewhere and looked at the driver.
22:33
Speaker 2: Driver was a normal looking person, see like, okay, that
22:36
Speaker 2: person's going to renew their regio. So what they do
22:39
Speaker 2: is they then go and recreate a set of plates
22:41
Speaker 2: that is the same as theirs. Then what they're able
22:44
Speaker 2: to do is drive around with the same plates as
22:46
Speaker 2: this other honest person who has a brown Volkswagen Golf
22:49
Speaker 2: in their stolen brown Volkswagen Golf. If the police were
22:53
Speaker 2: to search the VN, it would come up as stolen,
22:55
Speaker 2: But if they searched the plate, it just comes up
22:57
Speaker 2: as being registered to an owner. So as long as
23:00
Speaker 2: they're not speeding or getting attention to themselves, if you
23:02
Speaker 2: drive past a police car with these plates, they're unlikely
23:06
Speaker 2: to notice anything. And these plates were so bad, like
23:10
Speaker 2: the letters were out, it was just tape, basically white tape.
23:14
Speaker 2: On a black registration plate. Now, since then another person
23:19
Speaker 2: got in contact, it's like a huge rabbit hole of
23:22
Speaker 2: just dodgy stuff. Here another person got in contact with
23:24
Speaker 2: another method they're now using because the plates on this
23:27
Speaker 2: golf weren't reflective. So now someone's found a way of
23:30
Speaker 2: laser cutting reflective white tape that goes on a black
23:35
Speaker 2: galvanized steel plate that's then used as regi that reflects
23:39
Speaker 2: like it would if you drove through a set of
23:41
Speaker 2: lights or something. So it's incredible, and I just think
23:45
Speaker 2: that the police perhaps don't understand the scale of these
23:49
Speaker 2: thefts and the scale of how much money is being made.
23:53
Speaker 2: When they're selling secondhand ls engines, a break kit for
23:58
Speaker 2: a GTS they've stripped out. They're distributing this stuff through wreckers,
24:03
Speaker 2: and it's impossible to know if you go and buy
24:05
Speaker 2: off the shelf a seat, it's impossible to know what
24:08
Speaker 2: car that belonged to prior to it being on that shelf.
24:10
Speaker 2: There's no trace ability. So the fact that they're dumping
24:13
Speaker 2: shells everywhere at the moment around Melbourne tells you that's
24:15
Speaker 2: what's happening. So Yow, I'm worried about you.
24:19
Speaker 3: You're getting into some weird crime syndicate and you're getting
24:23
Speaker 3: too far deep here on me.
24:24
Speaker 2: You're interested at all in like any used Holden parts.
24:29
Speaker 3: I'm barely interested in what you've got to say. I
24:35
Speaker 3: think you need to have a good look at yourself.
24:38
Speaker 3: And I think you've been listening to a lot of
24:40
Speaker 3: true crime podcasts lately, and frankly, you'll probably end up dead.
24:48
Speaker 2: I do hope.
24:48
Speaker 3: Hey, do you reckon? I had this wild idea and
24:52
Speaker 3: I was twenty beers deep and we were discussing this
24:55
Speaker 3: amongst other drunken friends. Do you reckon like HSV could
25:02
Speaker 3: somehow come back together?
25:04
Speaker 2: Right?
25:04
Speaker 3: Holden could like essentially make cars. But here's the deal
25:07
Speaker 3: you make. I saw like I saw like probably I
25:10
Speaker 3: think it was like a twenty seventeen Alugu and HSV.
25:13
Speaker 3: It looks it still looks fucking good. Like it looks
25:16
Speaker 3: really good. Right. Imagine if they did every four years,
25:21
Speaker 3: and I know it would be expensive, a limited run,
25:24
Speaker 3: say two hundred and fifty hsvs. Yep, you manufacture them
25:28
Speaker 3: in Australia, you know they would be It's expensive. I
25:31
Speaker 3: get that, but I reckon they would bloody sell. You
25:34
Speaker 3: know what I mean that you did them every four
25:36
Speaker 3: to five years, make them properly, special edition, kit them out,
25:40
Speaker 3: put everything the fans want in there. They would sell
25:43
Speaker 3: I reckon. Yeah.
25:45
Speaker 2: Problem is, and this is part of the reason there's
25:48
Speaker 2: such a big market for these stolen cars is a
25:51
Speaker 2: lot of the industries that supported local manufacturing, like the
25:54
Speaker 2: guys that made buttons, the guys that made a handbrake,
25:58
Speaker 2: leave of the guys that made panels, they've gone out
26:01
Speaker 2: of business or they've gone to do something else. So
26:05
Speaker 2: if you wanted to do that, you wouldn't be able
26:07
Speaker 2: to stamp all the crap that you need to stamp
26:09
Speaker 2: because you had specialized people. You outsourced that too previously.
26:13
Speaker 2: So while it's a good idea, it would be very
26:15
Speaker 2: hard to achieve because there would be so many intricate
26:17
Speaker 2: things that you just can't get access to anymore.
26:19
Speaker 3: Hmm okay, well thanks for crapping on that idea. That's good. Anyway,
26:23
Speaker 3: what's wrong?
26:24
Speaker 2: Someone is calling?
26:25
Speaker 3: Who's calling? Uh? Why are you?
26:29
Speaker 2: She?
26:29
Speaker 3: Bish? Who is that?
26:31
Speaker 2: It's the great Donna is a Donna?
26:34
Speaker 3: Pick it up? We want to hear Hello, how are

Speaker 3: Kiss XO XO. Gordy.
28:21
Speaker 2: You've worked with Imitsu before at their launch event, right.
28:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have. I've got to say I was really impressed.
28:26
Speaker 3: These guys have been leaders in oil innovation for over
28:30
Speaker 3: a century. I mean, they're the ones trusted by Toyota
28:33
Speaker 3: and Mazda to deliver precision enginet oils straight from the factory,
28:38
Speaker 3: and now they're bringing this same expertise directly to OSSIE owners. Like,
28:42
Speaker 3: this is exciting times. So what what stood out to
28:46
Speaker 3: you the most? Okay, so they've got this nano tailored
28:49
Speaker 3: oil and this stuff is next level. I mean, they
28:52
Speaker 3: don't just make the kind of who high everyday products.
28:55
Speaker 3: Every formula is designed with a purpose. So we've got
28:58
Speaker 3: the if G three. This is perfect for city driving.
29:01
Speaker 3: This is where you're in that sort of stop start traffic,
29:04
Speaker 3: the stuff that really puts the stress on your engine.
29:07
Speaker 3: Then you've got the IFG seven. Now this is a
29:11
Speaker 3: beast for high performance vehicles. Seven layers of protection on
29:15
Speaker 3: this one, and it's got their nano cleansing tech that
29:18
Speaker 3: stops oil breakdowns even in the harshest of conditions. And
29:22
Speaker 3: if you're driving a Japanese car, the IFG five is
29:26
Speaker 3: built for precision engineered engines, offering five layers of protection
29:31
Speaker 3: to keep your engine clean and running smoothly. Gee, that
29:34
Speaker 3: sounds like some serious attention to detail. That's what I'm
29:37
Speaker 3: all about. I'm all about the detailed pavelo. You know
29:40
Speaker 3: this about me. The IFG seven isn't just oil. It's
29:43
Speaker 3: like giving your engine a custom built suit of armor.
29:46
Speaker 3: And it doesn't just protect your engine too, it optimizes performance.
29:49
Speaker 3: So if you're into keeping your car at its absolute best,
29:53
Speaker 3: this is the oil that you want. And now it's
29:55
Speaker 3: easy to get as well. Right, Yeah, it's really easy.
29:57
Speaker 3: It's all online. Just search out it omits to Australia.
30:00
Speaker 3: That's id E m it Su Australia, or you can
30:06
Speaker 3: write this one down au dot Iamitsu slash Nano, slash Tailored,
30:11
Speaker 3: slashoil dot com and they will ship this straight to
30:15
Speaker 3: your door, no fuss, just top tier oil delivered wherever
30:20
Speaker 3: you are.
30:21
Speaker 2: If it's good enough for manufacturers like Toyota and Masda,
30:24
Speaker 2: then it sounds good enough for me.
30:25
Speaker 3: Gordon, thank you. That's exactly right, pavlo Hey. With eat
30:28
Speaker 3: a MIDSU, you're getting oil that's designed to handle whatever
30:32
Speaker 3: you throw at it. They've been trusted by the best
30:35
Speaker 3: part for over one hundred years for a reason. It
30:38
Speaker 3: Amitsu taking you beyond engine protection to real driving excitement.
30:42
Speaker 3: Couldn't have said it better myself. That was great.
30:45
Speaker 2: I'm always carrying this show.
30:47
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five byd Shark six prices start from fifty
30:50
Speaker 1: seven six hundred dollars.
30:52
Speaker 3: Details head to Evingdirect dot com dot au. Should we
30:56
Speaker 3: do a quick little car review? Yeah, go on, what
30:59
Speaker 3: have we got? Let's do the by D sharks loss.
31:02
Speaker 2: You know what I'm thinking, Let's chat about it now.
31:04
Speaker 2: But this deserves the own episode, and I think that
31:07
Speaker 2: we can. We can also integrate the other plug in
31:09
Speaker 2: hybrid UITs that are coming, because there's there's a lot
31:11
Speaker 2: of interest in this stuff. So yeah, tune into the
31:13
Speaker 2: next one for that. But yes, let's chat about the.
31:16
Speaker 3: The BYD Shark six great white Chomp chomp, okay by
31:22
Speaker 3: D Shark six. A lot of interest in this car,
31:25
Speaker 3: including myself. I've got to be honest, I was really
31:28
Speaker 3: really excited about this one. I'm in the market for
31:30
Speaker 3: a car and this was on the considerations list, stupidly
31:34
Speaker 3: only because I hadn't driven it yet, but I was
31:36
Speaker 3: really excited about it. I think the thing that did
31:38
Speaker 3: excite me initially was I quite like BYD products. I'm
31:43
Speaker 3: a big fan of the Seal and I like the
31:46
Speaker 3: oh what's the suv? The c C line, Yeah, the
31:50
Speaker 3: Sea Line six, Sea Line six, Yeah, sure, I think
31:54
Speaker 3: they're great cars. So then there was this and I
31:57
Speaker 3: was lucky enough to get it, not for a long time,
32:00
Speaker 3: A good time, but not a long time. I would
32:05
Speaker 3: like to have given it a bit more time to
32:07
Speaker 3: kind of test its off road capabilities, which you certainly did,
32:13
Speaker 3: and that's caused a bit of a shit storm. We
32:17
Speaker 3: will should we explain why now?
32:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll explain briefly now, but we'll go into more
32:23
Speaker 2: detail in the other episode. So yes, we reviewed it,
32:27
Speaker 2: and I'll go into more detail about how the review
32:30
Speaker 2: came about and just some of the hairs that were
32:33
Speaker 2: on it. But basically the gist of it was, I
32:35
Speaker 2: really like the car, great value for money, lots of tech,
32:38
Speaker 2: beautiful to drive, not great off road based on the
32:41
Speaker 2: experience I had, and not amazing for towing at edge cases.
32:47
Speaker 2: So I think there's some improvements to be had there. Thankfully,
32:51
Speaker 2: if towing an off road is something that you're going
32:53
Speaker 2: to do a lot of there are alternatives coming that
32:56
Speaker 2: are going to be significantly better than this, So.
32:58
Speaker 3: We should stamp this with You did drive a pre
33:01
Speaker 3: production car now, sorry, yep, I have been told software
33:06
Speaker 3: updates have been done. Apparently there was like six I
33:10
Speaker 3: think there was like a bit of a rebuttal video
33:12
Speaker 3: to what you put out there was there?
33:15
Speaker 2: Well I think so, but it was a bit of
33:17
Speaker 2: a weird one.
33:17
Speaker 3: Okay, well we'll talk about that at great length in
33:19
Speaker 3: the next episode. But yes, so listen the BYD Shark
33:23
Speaker 3: six around about sixty thousand dollars. It's a big bugger too,
33:26
Speaker 3: like it's it's yeah, it's.
33:28
Speaker 2: Five and a half meters I think, bigger than the
33:30
Speaker 2: Ranger and stuff. So they have quite a presence, Yeah,
33:34
Speaker 2: quite a presence.
33:35
Speaker 3: What do you make of the exterior because I looked
33:36
Speaker 3: at this next like the exterior, yeah, next to the
33:40
Speaker 3: Kia Tasmin, which I did not like at all. I
33:43
Speaker 3: thought with the launch, like just as I guess a
33:47
Speaker 3: spectator looking in, I remember at the time thinking BYD
33:51
Speaker 3: knocked it out of the park with the launch. I
33:52
Speaker 3: think they launched a broken hill. They had a whole
33:54
Speaker 3: bunch of journals and I guess influencers there and they
33:59
Speaker 3: got so I think it's quite a smart move to
34:01
Speaker 3: kind of put these people in the back of butt
34:04
Speaker 3: fuck nowhere to put this car on. I guess it's Australian, Yeah,
34:09
Speaker 3: Australian turf and turf they want it to be on
34:11
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So I think in the design,
34:16
Speaker 3: I think BYD definitely beat out Keia in that department.
34:20
Speaker 3: I got to say, I like it. I really do
34:22
Speaker 3: like it. I think it's got its place, sixty thousand
34:25
Speaker 3: dollars full of tech. It's i'd call this, on the
34:29
Speaker 3: scheme of things, a mid priced car, Like it's not
34:31
Speaker 3: your sort of really affordable forty thousand dollars sort of
34:35
Speaker 3: suv end, but it's a it's a it's a chunk
34:39
Speaker 3: of cash for some people, and you know, you'd hope
34:42
Speaker 3: it to be good. The weird thing is I came
34:45
Speaker 3: off the back of two months driving a bloody Chevy Silverado,
34:50
Speaker 3: So the biggest shock for me was jumping in his car.
34:54
Speaker 3: And one, it's very luxurious inside, but more so it's
34:58
Speaker 3: like you're expecting it to be like you think it's
35:01
Speaker 3: going to be big marillion rough, but it's very luxurious
35:04
Speaker 3: inside and it makes no sound at all, and it's
35:08
Speaker 3: smooth and sensual.
35:10
Speaker 2: And you know what this car is like and it
35:13
Speaker 2: admits U lubricant.
35:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, nearly nearly as smooth yep, this car, it's like
35:21
Speaker 3: you were prepared to rough it at a hostel really
35:25
Speaker 3: rough it. But somehow you've woken up in a beautiful
35:31
Speaker 3: hotel bed and there's silk sheets and there's two foreign
35:36
Speaker 3: lady boys rubbing vasaline in your private parts. That's what
35:42
Speaker 3: this car is like to drive. Look, here's the thing.
35:48
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get in trouble for saying that. But whatever,
35:52
Speaker 3: the car is great. It's a really good car and
35:54
Speaker 3: it's got its place. I think the jury is still
35:58
Speaker 3: out as it's th road capabilities, given that you were
36:01
Speaker 3: given a pre production.
36:02
Speaker 2: Car and like another crack.
36:04
Speaker 3: Yeah, so look, it's not the end of that chapter.
36:06
Speaker 3: I think if you've got one of these on order,
36:09
Speaker 3: from my perspective, you're going to get what you're excited about.
36:12
Speaker 3: I think where the star of the show on this
36:15
Speaker 3: car kind of is is the fact that it is
36:18
Speaker 3: a good daily like it's a proper drive around the city,
36:21
Speaker 3: no problems, you know, and it does feel like an
36:24
Speaker 3: ev you know what I mean, which is weird. Anyway,
36:29
Speaker 3: we'll talk more about that in another episode. Oh that's all.
36:32
Speaker 3: You don't want to add anything else a moment you
36:35
Speaker 3: want to save you your cards, do you?
36:37
Speaker 2: I think so? So. The other one that I drove
36:42
Speaker 2: recently and absolutely loved is the new Ford Mustang base GT.
36:49
Speaker 2: So it was a six speed manual. Okay, that thing
36:52
Speaker 2: is so cool. I love the fact that in this
36:54
Speaker 2: day and age, when you know, people get excited over
36:58
Speaker 2: plug in hybrid electroc utes, the cars like the V
37:02
Speaker 2: eight Mustang still exist. It has gone up in price,
37:05
Speaker 2: it is like well over eighty thousand dollars now, but
37:08
Speaker 2: in my mind it is still such a great performance car.
37:11
Speaker 2: You've got a great gearbox, amazing sound out of the exhaust.
37:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, that dark Horse sounds phenomenal. I know we're not
37:19
Speaker 3: talking about the dark Horse, but that car. My made,
37:22
Speaker 3: bought one and it's just incredible. I think the base
37:26
Speaker 3: GT that you had, that the software that they've put in,
37:29
Speaker 3: the tech that they've put in was much needed and
37:31
Speaker 3: it's really good.
37:32
Speaker 2: Is the tech is the thing I love?
37:34
Speaker 3: You've got you're right there with your heart burn. I'm
37:37
Speaker 3: going to leave all that in by the way, in fact,
37:39
Speaker 3: I'm going to make it. I'm going to isolate it.
37:42
Speaker 3: It's the word.
37:44
Speaker 2: So Yeah. The thing I love stuff like the drift breaks.
37:47
Speaker 2: They've got now electrically actuated park break that you can
37:51
Speaker 2: use as a drift brake. They've got the line locked feature,
37:55
Speaker 2: which they didn't bring last time because I was worried
37:58
Speaker 2: about people cracking the shit. It's over it. They've got
38:02
Speaker 2: so many just cool functions that you can activate, REV matching,
38:05
Speaker 2: all this sort of stuff that you just don't find
38:08
Speaker 2: on cars these days. It's really cool to see V
38:10
Speaker 2: eight reel drive manual, just just good stuff. Body unreal.
38:16
Speaker 3: Oh you know what, I did drive again A couple
38:18
Speaker 3: of I needed some time to fill in, so I
38:22
Speaker 3: had a cone of EV, which is a great little
38:24
Speaker 3: fun they'll get about. I think where that car fails
38:27
Speaker 3: is basically it's not a dedicated EV platform for me anyway.
38:32
Speaker 3: But generally it's fitted out so well. It looks beautiful inside.
38:35
Speaker 3: They've given it some great updates. But you know what
38:38
Speaker 3: I really love, and I know you really don't love,
38:41
Speaker 3: is the B five hundred E No right, it's.
38:45
Speaker 2: All sorts of shit.
38:46
Speaker 3: It makes no sense. While I like a sixty thousand
38:49
Speaker 3: dollars tiny, tiny little golf ball that makes fake noises
38:54
Speaker 3: and has like two hundred kilometers worth of EV range,
38:58
Speaker 3: it makes no sense. But driving this thing around, I
39:03
Speaker 3: just had it. It's just so fun. If you can
39:06
Speaker 3: ignore all that. I mean, look, if they wanted to,
39:10
Speaker 3: if they really wanted to put out something competitive, that
39:13
Speaker 3: probably should take about twenty thousand dollars off the price
39:15
Speaker 3: tag trying out one hundred kilometers of range. It's it's
39:19
Speaker 3: still good. And you know what, our producer live who
39:21
Speaker 3: often sits in this chair to produce our program, she
39:26
Speaker 3: bloody loved it too. Whatever, it's fun. You can't deny
39:29
Speaker 3: that that car is fine. We've got some questions, oh yeah,
39:32
Speaker 3: on some questions rapid Fire. Can you guys give us
39:35
Speaker 3: an update on Jaguar. Yeah, it's it's still a train
39:42
Speaker 3: wreck when they release those cars.
39:46
Speaker 2: I just I honestly, surely they should have read the
39:51
Speaker 2: tea leaves and seen that people are not interested in
39:54
Speaker 2: that shit anyway.
39:57
Speaker 3: Jesus, at this moment they are zept cars and they
40:02
Speaker 3: are yeh yeah, they are yet to bring out an
40:06
Speaker 3: actual production car, so I will leave my comments behind
40:10
Speaker 3: on that one. Do you think Tesla has finally fixed
40:13
Speaker 3: the ride or is that just never going to happen?
40:15
Speaker 3: That is from the Good Doyle. Thank you for your question.
40:18
Speaker 3: I'm going to presume the Good Oyle is talking about
40:22
Speaker 3: the new model. Y.
40:23
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, they will have because it's now going to
40:26
Speaker 2: use the same suspension that they've put in the Model three,
40:29
Speaker 2: and in the Model three it's completely transformed it. So
40:32
Speaker 2: they announced when they sort of revealed that car, that
40:35
Speaker 2: that suspension will go into Model Y.
40:37
Speaker 3: Okay, cool. Actually we didn't even talk about that, but yeah,
40:41
Speaker 3: the Model Y. There's a new Model Y. You're right, yeah,
40:43
Speaker 3: it looks very different.
40:44
Speaker 2: What do you think of the design?
40:46
Speaker 5: Ho hum?
40:47
Speaker 3: I think it's got the update it definitely needed. It
40:50
Speaker 3: looks good on the front, it looks good from the
40:53
Speaker 3: back and front. The interior to me is just like, Man,
40:56
Speaker 3: I like that they brought stork back. Yes, they're bringing
40:58
Speaker 3: stock get back.
40:59
Speaker 2: At least they're listening because that is the thing that
41:02
Speaker 2: everyone hated about the Model three.
41:03
Speaker 3: So I think that's cool.
41:05
Speaker 2: Yep.
41:05
Speaker 3: Those Teslas have just become a little bit boring generic. Yeah,
41:10
Speaker 3: from a car that was once really exciting and the
41:15
Speaker 3: way they engineered it, and you know, to me, a
41:17
Speaker 3: Tesla always stood in a league of its own. I
41:19
Speaker 3: kind of just go, yeah, same, same now, man, that's
41:22
Speaker 3: another question, not a question, per se. Just keep up
41:26
Speaker 3: the awesome work. The Trev Banter is world class. Haha.
41:30
Speaker 2: Thank you Loopy for it. Four.
41:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, Trevor's a big, fat area bastard.
41:36
Speaker 2: I love that he just never has a chance to respond.
41:39
Speaker 3: Even when we did give him a chance to respond,
41:41
Speaker 3: no one could fucking understand him. He was under the
41:43
Speaker 3: covers of his bed. Do you guys have Do you
41:51
Speaker 3: guys know of any hybrid vans that's from Doug Wookie
41:54
Speaker 3: hybrid vans?
41:56
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
41:58
Speaker 3: I probably, I guess you could call I wonder if
42:02
Speaker 3: Keya would bring out a hybrid of the Carnival. Yeah,
42:05
Speaker 3: but that's not probably the kind of van he's talking.
42:07
Speaker 2: Okay, so the I'm just this is so bad. I'm
42:13
Speaker 2: just googling it now. So there are electric fans, so
42:17
Speaker 2: it says, yeah, Volkswagen tip to launch Australia's first plug
42:20
Speaker 2: in hybrid van Stario Hybrid.
42:24
Speaker 3: Oh there you go.
42:25
Speaker 2: That's what I forgot about that, Okay, Stari hybrid.
42:29
Speaker 3: I think that answers this question. Let's keep going. How
42:31
Speaker 3: do you two know each other?
42:33
Speaker 2: Well?
42:34
Speaker 3: That was we met on Snapchat. Paul was sending photos
42:40
Speaker 3: which I thought was just nature photos from the Amazon,
42:45
Speaker 3: and now I thought it was nature photos.
42:47
Speaker 2: From the Amazon.
42:48
Speaker 3: It's definitely not a Vulgan. It was during COVID. I said,
42:52
Speaker 3: let's start a podcast, yeah, and you went, yeah, okay,
42:56
Speaker 3: So I don't know what car this person, Liam Leaf
42:59
Speaker 3: is referring to. Who does this?
43:00
Speaker 5: Oh?
43:01
Speaker 3: Maybe it's the Shark six, because I said we were
43:03
Speaker 3: gonna review the Shark six. But does the Senate console
43:06
Speaker 3: fold down so Donna can give Parvlay some loving while driving?
43:10
Speaker 2: Well, even if it did, it wouldn't support that kind
43:13
Speaker 2: of mass.
43:16
Speaker 3: When you saw the by D struggling to get up
43:18
Speaker 3: a hill, that's Pavlay trying to like get on top
43:21
Speaker 3: of one of Donna's thighs.
43:23
Speaker 2: Just grappling. Just now that I've got a software update though,
43:27
Speaker 2: just putting your.

Speaker 3: Bucket over ahead and holding onto the handles. We should
43:32
