Summary

It’s springtime, which means the annual tire switch on all the cars is happening. If the guys are going to recommend everyone have one, why not an Aston Martin? Damon in Seattle, WA has the budget to get a V8 Vantage, and is eyeballing a neighbor’s car for sale. Alex in England works for the Aston Martin factory, and is looking for a commuter car to get there. Listener questions cover subjects like pretty cars vs. commodity cars, CUVs in NASCAR, and Lotus reliability issues… Please rate and review the podcast on iTunes, the show on Amazon Prime and IMDB, and write to us at everydaydrivertv@gmail.com or everydaydriver.com.
