0:00.0 | I just got three things to say. God bless our troops. God bless America and gentlemen! Start your engine! |
0:16.0 | Remember that from 2007 he was Kevin James at a NASCAR race? What do we start your engines for? |
0:24.0 | I don't know, it just felt like I wanted to get the blood pumping and this is going to be an |
0:28.0 | exciting episode of the Truck Show podcast. It's been an exciting week. I know that much. Yeah? |
0:34.0 | I just got back from Shot Show. Did you drive the 392 because it's sitting outside banks here? No. No. |
0:40.0 | No, I took a ride with people who got a free company gas. Oh, okay. So yeah, I was a passenger and that was just fine. |
0:48.0 | Jason Garnerman, myself, I'm afraid of Cory Simone, piled into a Denali Yukon. It was a Denali ultimate. |
0:54.0 | Not just a Denali, that's for poor people. No, no. This was not the Denali for the poorest. This was the topple line with Supercruise, which was weird. |
1:02.0 | So is Supercruise, I see people talking about that with towing but not just for cruising sans caboose. |
1:10.0 | I'm saying, you used Supercruise just to not towing. What does it have to do with towing? I don't know. I just saw an article the other day. |
1:18.0 | Supercruise was talking about Supercruise towing. Well, yeah, great. You're supposed to be able to use it while towing. |
1:24.0 | But no, we didn't tow anything to Shot Show. I don't know. It was driving down the road. Anyway, my whole point of this is that the Supercruise is super weird. |
1:32.0 | And it's like in the wind, it has these really jerky back and forth in your lane and there's times where we're like, yeah, we're not doing that anymore. |
1:40.0 | It loses the lanes all the time and I'm like, Supercruise is hands-off. Right? Oh, no. |
1:44.0 | And we tried it and we went back to hands-off because it was like, I'm not so sure. This feels super ready for prime time. No. |
1:52.0 | It's definitely not not okay. It was, yeah. So anyway, I was in the passenger seat now. |
1:58.0 | You could feel like it the sway back and forth as it's trying to compensate in the lanes or where it would lose and beep at you. |
2:04.0 | And I don't know. They would just be like, I don't know the lanes are here on your own. |
2:08.0 | And then there's just some weird idiosyncrasies with it. We should have Jason on to talk about his experience because he's going to have that vehicle for a while and he's doing all sorts of experimenting with it. |
2:18.0 | But yes, that was weird. Who was behind the wheel? You or Jason? Jason. |
2:22.0 | Okay. I don't know if you guys traded. I wrote along. I wrote along. I was a passenger. I made ballast. |
2:28.0 | I know, but you like to get behind the wheel. So I thought at some point halfway through this trip, you're hopping in. I know. |
