Years ago I was listening to their show when somebody called with a question
about buying a Vanagon. Their answer: Don't. You'll hate the way it drives.
Wait until next year and the Eurovan will be out. That will be a good car.

That's when I learned that they weren't infallible, and that there were car
things that I knew more about than they did.
