LC500 for 1100 miles; Hydrogen Lawsuit; Kitten rescue

Matt is back from an 1,100 mile drive in the Lexus LC500 and has notes; Zack talks about the lawsuit against Toyota regarding its hydrogen cars (something he knows all too much about); some kittens get rescued; and questions from our Patreon members include:

  • What has better steering feel than a Porsche?
  • Best car to take your dad for exciting rides
  • Thoughts on Lexus' new halo car
  • Why do some models remain icons for decades while others fade away?
  • Our opinion of the GNX
  • Why you don't supercharge a C4 Corvette
  • Small 4x4 to replace my Miata?
  • I need a cheap, cool, warm-weather convertible
  • And more!
