Happy Tuesday.

We're already coming in Lapid, which is great.

We got a huge podcast ahead.

0:05.0

We are finishing up our Peak series.

0:07.0

That's right. We are going to do Porsche through the end. Grab a hold of something. Gritch your teeth. We're going to get through this. We got a lot of photos, a lot of discussion about Peak and our two different ways of approaching that. that, but we've got news up front. We hope you've seen our latest piece. It's actually out on

0:20.9

this channel right now. It is the brand new Subaru Outback, like totally rethought Subaru Outback, versus the Mazda. Yes. Well, yeah, and more SUV than ever. Yeah. Against the Mazda CX-50, which frankly exists because the Outback exists. So that's something we wanted to do for a while. Hopefully you've seen that.

1:20.6

The people with marketing degrees that are trying to prove their worth.

1:24.6

That's who writes it, yes.

1:26.6

Here's why, because they have to involve Hyundai Steel, part of the Hyundai Motor Group, inspired by the advanced steel technologies pioneered by Hyundai Steel. The alloy is natural formability.
