TFL Car Chat

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman and Tommy get behind the wheel of the highly anticipated 2026 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro to see if the sixth-generation icon still holds the crown. After a full walkaround and drive, they dive into the new i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain and updated off-road tech to determine if this redesign maintains the rugged simplicity of its predecessors or if the 4Runner has finally lost its way in a sea of modern complexity.
The conversation then moves to the studio as Kase and Tommy break down the latest off-road headlines, including rumors of Lincoln developing a body-on-frame competitor to the Mercedes G-Wagon and Ford’s updated Tremor packaging for the Super Duty lineup. They also share the latest updates on the ever-growing TFL project fleet, from Tommy’s newest flat-fender Jeep purchase to the surprising discovery that the transmission in Kase’s Land Rover actually functions. Finally, the team introduces the newest member of the fleet, a classic Isuzu Rodeo, and discusses what the future holds for this 90s off-road survivor.

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this breaking news bonus episode of TFL Car Chat, we’re joined by MotoMan from @MMTVCars to discuss Honda’s massive strategy shift. The automaker has officially pulled the plug on its highly anticipated 0 Series electric sedan and SUV, citing a cooling U.S. market and shifting federal policies. We break down what this $15 billion retreat means for the industry and how it reflects a broader return to affordable gas and hybrid vehicles as EV adoption hits a major speed bump.
The conversation then shifts to high-octane performance, headlined by the mind-blowing Corvette ZR1X. With 1,250 hp and a 0–60 mph time of just 1.68 seconds, it’s officially entered hypercar territory. We also dive into the Lamborghini Temerario’s 10,000-rpm V8 hybrid, the raw analog thrill of the Nilu 27, and the record-shattering Yangwang U9 Xtreme, which recently clocked an absurd 308 mph. Whether it's the track-ready BMW M2 CS or rear-wheel-drive ZR1 purism, this episode covers the absolute limits of modern automotive engineering.

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman Mica is joined by a Sam Abuelsamid. Vice President of Market Research at Telemetry and co-host of the Wheel Bearings podcast, Sam brings a wealth of engineering and data-driven insight to a question every car buyer has asked lately: "Why aren't manufacturers listening to us?"
From the death of the affordable small car to the industry’s obsession with "luxury" price tags and haptic touchscreens that nobody asked for, Roman and Sam peel back the curtain on why there’s such a massive disconnect between what consumers want and what’s actually hitting the showroom floor.

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! In this episode of TFL Car Chat, Roman, Tommy and Kase tackle one of the most controversial questions in the off-road world right now: Is the new Toyota Land Cruiser a masterpiece or a massive disappointment?
After decades of the legendary 100 and 200 series, the Land Cruiser is back in the U.S., but it’s smaller and cheaper. Is it still a "Land Cruiser," or has it just become a fancy 4Runner? Instead of just reading a spec sheet, we spend the first half of the show behind the wheel, putting it through its paces in Andre’s Pit Course to see if the hardware actually lives up to the nameplate. We compare the real-world feel and articulation against the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler to see if this "baby" Land Cruiser can actually hold its own when the pavement ends.
