Michael Ratcliff is talking about the all wood architecture of the HEMI Hideout!

While we are all about the cars, the signs, the automobile memorabilia and the sheer amount of unusual material in the HEMI Hideout, it is the building that makes it.  The building makes it possible for all of this 'stuff' to be in one place where it can be enjoyed by so many people. Joining us on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk is the man behind the design, Michael Ratclif.  Not only is this building awesome in design, but there are no nails, no bolts - only wood and glass.    In our Feature Segment, Jeff Dziekan is looking at 'Five of the Fastest EVs.' All this and more on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk. ---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time? In Wheel Time Car Talk is now available on iHeart Radio!

The Ford Maverick, part of the next generation 'small' truck.

There was a time when small trucks were embedded in all facets of life. Small companies needed small vehicles for parts runners, pool companies, and even first time vehicle buyers looking for cheap truck transportation. The new generation of small truck from Ford is filling a gap that has existed since the demise of the mini trucks, like the Ford Ranger. As the mini trucks grew in size, they finally outgrew the segment and became extinct, like the dinosaur. The Ford Maverick is now the new small truck, not as small as the old Ranger, but smaller than the 'new Ranger'.

HEMI Hideout 10th Anniversary with John Hovis and a review of the 2023 Maverick Hybrid.

For over ten years, John Hovis has been collecting...all sorts of stuff.  He started with some of the vehicles that he wanted in high school, but never could reach.   Then about ten years ago, he decided to build an event center that would house his collection.   Like John's world, it would be unique, yet classic in design.  Then one thing led to another....like some automotive related signs... and another...like classic John Deere tractors... and another... Motorcycles, boat motors and just more stuff. We are at the HEMI Hideout for the 10th Anniversary of John's Dream.  Join us as John introduces his dream, a little history, and sets things up for our guest during our LIVE broadcast. ---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time?

An Illinois High School takes on the Texas Mile, and we have This Week in Auto History.

In another episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk, we introduced a successful auto shop program in Napperville, Illinois, led by Greg Ditch.  Greg has had a lifelong passion with the automotive world, and is sharing that with any young person that is interested.  He has been successful in growing a struggling high school program into a full enrolment program with after school sessions to help fill the knowledge void.

Know how to talk with your car? We look at a tool that can help in Konrad's Car Clinic.

The days of using a feeler gauge to set the plugs and point before hitting the road are long gone. Now it is more about understanding what all the warning lights mean - how to transfer that 'check engine light' into a code that can be defined, analyzed and hopefully lead to a fix. In this episode of the Car Clinic, Konrad DeLong, Master ASE tech shows a tool on how to read the codes, as well as go further in analyzing the issues. MUCAR900 CDE

High School Auto Shop failing programs? Greg Ditch says 'Not here!' Getting our 'Kicks' with Ni...

For years we have talked about the automotive tech shortage in the work place.  Dealerships have taken to providing incentives and some have even gone into the training business so they can develop their own. We think one of the issues starts very early, like in high school.  Many of us grew up with auto shop classes being available in the high schools.  We could learn some of the basics, or even better ways to do things.  For some of us, it also let us know how far we wanted to go 'pulling wrenches'.   Budget cuts, technology, student interest, there are a lot of reasons that there are not as many of these classes.  However, we found Greg Ditch, Napperville High School Auto Shop teach that is growing his attendance, particularly the female students.   Join us as we learn more about the instructor that has turned the program around, as well as what he thinks the secrets to success are. In our Feature segment, Don Armstrong has been in then New Car Showroom with the 2023 Nissan Kic…
