TWC Podcast #150: A Class-Leading Mushball
By Phil Royle — Dec. 21, 2023
The Cybertruck is the gift that keeps on giving, with more news coming in the form of production rumors and a Jay Leno walk-around of the uniquely angular pickup. Then: Did GM flawlessly execute its EV plan? GM’s CEO Mary Barra says no — and we agree. Also, VW swaps to NACS, Ramcharger is a class-leading mushball of a truck, AT&T and Rivian become bedfellows, and so much more!
