So glad that you could join us today . We really appreciate you . The GMC Sierra , denali EV Very interesting vehicle , mars , you had it , yes , I did . Did you like it ? I did ? I did too , I really did , which kind of surprised me it is . And you know , when we do the review , I may or may not talk about it , but the thing that's very interesting to me about it is it's not the Chevy or GMC 1500 , it's a completely different vehicle and they had to do it that way to actually make it a complete EV , because they're doing it differently than Ford's doing the F-150 Lightning , and boy they did it right .

Speaker 3 2:37

There's still cues from the .

Speaker 1 2:39

Oh , absolutely yeah absolutely there are , but independent rear suspension . Yeah , absolutely there are , but independent rear suspension . It's got that mid panel that you can fold down , kind of like the old .

Speaker 2 2:50

Avalanche Avalanche , yes .

Speaker 1 2:52

We're going to talk about the texas triumph registry car club . And you know , when I saw that you were going to visit us today , I thought you know what triumph always had a step above in my mind . And I know nothing about the two cars , the mg and the triumph , it's all I could think of . And I thought , wow , the triumph was always the one that had the looks and , uh , I know that they , they made a hot rod version of it . They were kind of like a step above , more of a Euro style . Yeah , yeah .

Speaker 4 4:29

I don't want to step on any toes , but I agree with you .

Speaker 1 4:33

Good , thank you . Thank you very much . So obviously you must have a Triumph .

Speaker 4 4:40

I have a couple of Triumphs I do . What years are they ? I have a couple of Triumphs I do . What years are they ? This is a TR3B Triumph and it was a little four-cylinder . I'll step out and maybe you can see a little more of it . I wish I could turn my camera around , but I'm lucky to get sand , because at first I didn't have sand .

Speaker 1 5:06

It looks good , it looks fine . Yeah , it's cool Very nice , yeah , over here .

Speaker 4 5:12

But 3B came out after the 4 . The 4 came out and they weren't going to make any more 3s . So the dealers , you know , were talking about the 4 , and everybody said , no , I want another 3 . So , triumph and their wisdom , which happens sometimes they put all parts together and they made the TR-3B .

Speaker 1 5:42

What year is that ?

Speaker 4 5:43

It's a 62 , but it wasn't titled until 63 . So my husband always called it a 63 , but 62 was the year the 3B came out .

Speaker 1 5:54

It looks like a show car . It looks brand new .

Speaker 4 5:58

Oh , it is our pride and joy . My husband passed last year .

Speaker 1 6:02

I'm sorry to hear that he loved working on the cars and I helped him joy .

Speaker 4 6:03

My husband passed last year . I'm sorry to hear that . Yeah , he loved working on the cars and I helped him . I was the gopher and I knew enough to help and I could do interiors , I could do that .

Speaker 1 6:17

Did he restore that car himself ?

Speaker 4 6:20

Well , we did , we did it ourselves a long time ago . I uh , 2000 was when it was finally finished and uh , uh , we . Well , it still needed interior , which I did that part . And uh , well , I didn't do the back . Let me show you back . It's crazy , I can , I don't know if it's , oh , yeah , we see it , there's a lot of it . Yes , there's a lot of detail with the leather in the back and we had to take it to an upholstery place . They did a beautiful job . They were just awesome .

Speaker 1 6:59

Well , the whole car looks beautiful , very nice . Have you had it appraised ?

Speaker 4 7:05

No , we haven't . My husband was not at all interested in selling it and we had some offers . We had one guy that I think had probably had too much to drink . He offered us $50,000 . $50,000 .

Speaker 1 7:22

Because his girlfriend liked it All right , let me ask you this , that'll do it . How do you , if you have not had it appraised , how do you insure it ?

Speaker 4 7:34

It's classic car insurance . My husband started that and I didn't really look at it , I just yeah , let's just keep it going , just renew it . Yeah , yeah .

Speaker 3 7:44

Okay , so you said , you have another one besides this . Is that above it . We froze her up .

Speaker 4 7:55

Oh no , there she is .

Speaker 2 7:57

There you go , we got you back , okay .

Speaker 4 7:59

Okay , it's in the shop and you can see . The steering wheel is up here on the workbench .

Speaker 1 8:08

Yes , we see that but there's a club member that he goes yeah , your internet's not very good over in that part of the building so , melissa , if you can hear us , we need to get you to go back outside so we can make sure that your cell phone signal picks up outside , if you don't mind doing that for us .

Speaker 4 8:34

No , I don't mind .

Speaker 1 8:35

Okay , all right . Well , let me ask you another question here regarding the club , the Texas Triumph Registry Car Club . Yes , sir , Did you guys found that , or are you just members of it ?

Speaker 4 8:48

No , no , mike Hato founded it . At the time we had just moved here and we were into autocrossing and we didn't join the club . For a couple of years we were doing SCCA and there wasn't a lot of time to do everything , sure , but about two years after it had started we joined , uh , uh , ttr and it's , it's , a wonderful club , um , very inclusive of everything . If it they don't even . You know , if you have an MG or an El Camino , you can still come , you can still come here An El Camino .

Speaker 1 9:29

Do you happen to have an El Camino ?

Speaker 4 9:31

Actually my father-in-law had one . I knew there had to be something in the family .

Speaker 1 9:38

That's not one of those things that comes off the tip of your tongue . Oh yeah , el Camino .

Speaker 4 9:44

Well , my daughter has it now my youngest daughter . She has a garage .

Speaker 1 9:50

It's well taken care of , all right , so where are you located ? Where is the Texas Triumph Registry located ?

Speaker 4 9:57

It's located in Houston .

Speaker 1 9:59

Okay .

Speaker 4 10:01

But Houston's so big they have . Well , the monthly meetings are at somebody's house the second Saturday and then every Saturday there is a breakfast somewhere over town . So it varies . It goes north to south , east to west and there's always one near you . You know , during the month sometime Sure , and we take they take drives out in the little two-lane roads up north of Houston and west of Houston and east of Houston , even south . We even go to Galveston sometimes . How many people in the club .

Speaker 4 10:41

There's . I think there are 200 . I think 200 families , oh my God , that's a lot .

Speaker 1 10:48

Families .

Speaker 3 10:48

Yes .

Speaker 1 10:49

So do you all have a big Triumph show at least once a year or something ?

Speaker 4 10:54

Well , they're regionals . We're part of the vintage tramp register , which is a national group , and it's like a chapter , although we started this here first and then we joined vtr . Uh , I was already a member of vtr actually before we moved here , um , but uh , we just uh , there's something all the time . We have one run a month where we go out and travel the back roads . After the breakfast . Sometimes they'll drive somewhere , like to somebody's garage , or they'll have a tech talk , a tech session somewhere .

Speaker 1 11:30

And have somebody put steering wheels on cars and things like that .

Speaker 4 11:33

Oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . Well , I think I could do it if I have the book . Sure well yeah .

Speaker 1 11:39

We all could Sometimes . But , you know one of the things that I remember when I was a member of a Corvette club many years ago , somebody needed help moving the body of a Corvette from the backyard and setting it on the frame , and so all of us went over to his house and we all gathered around and we helped the guy out . And that's one of the fun things about having car club friends when you do get together . Amy and so-and-so needs this Well let's go over there and do it .

Speaker 1 12:10

Lots of camaraderie and lots of fun .

Speaker 3 12:14

You've got quite a few in your garage there . Is that your personal garage or is that a workshop ?

We have links to the site on inwheeltimecom and the In Wheel Time Facebook page . Yep , Looking forward to it . Yeah , Matter of fact , I'm working on getting the Corvette all gussied up .

Speaker 3 20:35

Every year I do something right . Gussied up .

Speaker 1 20:38

So we did the oil changes , we did all the maintenance stuff . That was in December , november , december , and I really haven't gone anywhere or done anything . So now , this next week , I'm going to take it up to Pate's Performance Tunes . Remember we talked to Alex several months ago .

Speaker 2 20:59

Yes .

Speaker 1 21:00

I'm going to take it up there and he's going to put it on the dyno and do a mild tune to it through the computer .

Speaker 2 21:07

I've always heard about that . I'm really interested to see what you think of it hands-on .

Speaker 1 21:10

Yeah Well , we'll see . I still want to keep my mileage as much as I can Picky , picky , picky , and well , I mean he does some really high-performance stuff yeah .

Speaker 1 21:22

And I'm not . I'm not interested in that . It runs just fine , but I want to get it up there . I want to get it on the dyno , see what it starts off with , see what it ends up with when he gets done messing with it and let him give it a once-over , a look-see . I'm still worried about the harmonic balancer and I've been told by several people don't worry about it until it comes apart . Oh great .

Speaker 3 21:48

So he's going to give you an opinion on that thing he's going to look at it yeah , uh-huh .

Speaker 1 21:53

Yeah , okay , so don't worry about it until it breaks . Well , I'm trying to avoid it breaking while I'm on the road .

Speaker 2 21:58

Particularly if it's doing about 5,000 RPM , which means out there on the end of that crank .

Speaker 3 22:02

It's doing about 20,000 . And he's on the Big Ben .

Speaker 1 22:04

Road . Yeah , so at any rate . So I'm getting ready . Next week is Alex's place . All right , very good Time now for the Mortar Minute , mr Jeffrey , yeah , I've been getting some questions .

Speaker 3 22:15

I kind of did a blurb a few weeks ago about blue mountains coming out and take a cruise and trip through the hill country , but what I got here is here's some of the places that you can go . Places that you can go now because of the cold weather . Some of the blue bonnets are coming out and then they went back in and they some of them died off , whatever the case , but they're starting to bloom . Uh , there's different varieties of the blue bonnets through texas , coastal and then interior . So , uh , one of the places you go to , enchanted rock state natural national . Uh state natural area in fredericksburg . Uh , willow city loop in frederburg They've got a great view of the Blue Bonnets Marble Falls , lelano , wimberley and Dripping Springs Mike , they've got fields of them , so when they bloom , go out there and get some good pictures . Wild Seed Farms in Fredericksburg , lady Bird , johnson , wild Flower Center in Austin Now , these are all hill country .

Speaker 3 23:04

They're going to start about Brenham and westward . You'll find some things here in Houston , north Houston , montgomery County and things Burnett , lake , buchanan . So there's quite a few out there you can get on . There's certain websites in Texas you can get on . Check your local municipalities and they have things that you can go out and actually go out there and do Be careful because there's a lot of snakes and things that live in those flowers . There's a lot of snakes and things that live in those flowers .

Speaker 1 23:30

There's a lot of creatures and things .

Speaker 3 23:31

There's Don Armstrong . Yeah , the main lizards out there .

Speaker 2 23:34

And a lot of that's on private property . A lot of people just pull over on the side of the road .

Speaker 3 23:38

Yeah , don't do that , get some permission and they'll take some pictures .

Speaker 2 23:40

But if you try and climb over the fences , that's usually a good sign it's private .

Speaker 3 23:44

Don't trample them , don't pick them either , because there is a crime to pick blue bucks or cut them ?

Speaker 1 23:49

Did you know that You're not supposed to mow them over , or anything ?

Speaker 3 23:51

Or trample them . So if you got a little kid and you're a nice baby shot and all that with the family , be careful of the critters and creatures and be respectful for the property .

Speaker 1 24:04

Yeah , and somebody else is going to want to do Something , something .

Speaker 2 24:06

There you go .

Speaker 1 24:07

Time now for this hour's car review . I got to drive the 2025 GMC Sierra EV Final assembly . Location Detroit , Motown , sir . Available trim levels the Denali , the extended range and the max range . I had the Denali , the max range . This is a full-size , half-ton pick-em-up truck . Seats five , including the driver . Exterior changes uh electrics from gm share few parts with the gasoline version . This is a all new truck . Exterior features exclusive front clip with sharp looking new grille and lighting for this ev . Gm squared off wheel openings still prevail . Uh , smaller version of the c pillar sail panels . That reminds one of the uh no longer produced avalan pickup truck , which kind of had a mediocre response , but now it seems to be back in vogue . If you can find them , Multi-Pro tailgate is absolutely the best . Thoroughly , whoever invented that .

Speaker 2 25:21

They did themselves proud Sugar got a raise .

Speaker 1 25:24

What I liked about the exterior . This is an exterior-interior feature and that is the MultiPro MidGate . It increases the bed length to almost 11 feet and it folds down to open the cab to the bed . That's how it creates that extra footage back there in the bed . Also , the window the back window can come out separately . Oh wow , it's just a really cool . It's like the Swiss Army knife of trucks .

Speaker 1 25:54

Yeah and it's not hard to do . Now , interior highlights Huge Tesla-like vertical infotainment screen . Now , this is different than the Chevrolet version . The Chevrolet is horizontal . This is a vertical , big tablet-looking screen that's right there above the center console . Loved it . Big , comfortable leather seating with a great pattern in it , Full-time sunroof without a shade . How's that going to work in August and September ?

Speaker 2 26:31

Well , I was really glad when I had it . I was really glad it wasn't August or September .

Speaker 1 26:35

But I will tell you this I would imagine that it doesn't have a shade well , for several reasons , but I guess that they figured that . If it's really beaten down on you , I think that they've got some special glass up there that's very reflective . You'll get the sunlight without the heat . That's my guess . Yep , I didn't test it because it was cloudy . Sounds right , but it really was not obtrusive to me . Like most sunroofs are All right , upscale trim throughout . Don't forget the frunk . I forgot about the frunk . Don't forget the frunk . I forgot about the frunk . Did you open the frunk ? Yes , I did . Did you ? What did you do up there ? Tried to figure out how to close the frunk . That was an interesting expression of frustration and guilt . I felt dumb Because you could open it with the button button , but it doesn't close with the button kept looking for a button all down the sides so you kind of got to pull it down , and once you get it down there then it goes .

Speaker 1 27:36

Yeah , I don't know what the deal is with that . Um , what I liked about it functionality throughout the control services on the interior . Get the salesperson to demonstrate the mid-gate to you , because unless you look at something of how it works , it can be a little puzzling to get it down .

Speaker 2 27:58

Yeah , it can be a little concern , kind of put this back together Exactly .

Speaker 1 28:02

Yeah , engine . Well , it has two electric motors that drive all four wheels , so it's a full-time all-wheel drive truck , horsepower rated up to 760 , with 785 pound-feet of torque . Substantial Direct drive , clearly . So it doesn't have a transmission . Tow rating 10,000 pounds . Haul rating 10,000 pounds . Haul rating 1,500 pounds . What I got as far as mileage is concerned and you'll have to do the math because I don't know 2.0 miles per kilowatt hour . I drove it 497.2 miles . What I liked about it ?
