Cars That Died in 2024: These Will and Won’t Be Missed!

[@michaelmackey754]

Great podcast!

[@TFLtalk]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JeffDK80]

Agreed. Thanks Roman and Tommy

[@joemcdonough7509]

@@TFLtalk Excellent podcast as usual. Did I hear this right, you guys owned a $150K Porsche for a year? Was there any content on this? Would love to watch.

[@triaxe-mmb]

Happy NY to you all. Great podcast as always​@@TFLtalk

[@robertmills794]

Maybe I can find a nice used S5 next year. Always loved the look of that car.

[@jcollins1305]

I love these long form tfl talk videos that cut through the BS to have a good discussion on cars and the car business. Well done.

[@thebagnechannel3183]

I’ve been waiting for someone to bounce a ping pong ball into one of those red Solo cups.

[@is6566]

Whistlin Diesel moment. 😃

[@ribbit1964]

Bots suck, TFL doesn’t! G’Morning Roman, G’Morning Tommy! Sunday morning…early, hot coffee, TFL videos -> thanks guys!

[@anotherbrickinthewall1700]

It is crazy how in line your thinking of cars and the various models you discuss is in line with me. Much appreciated, you're doing a great job just being yourselves in these discussions and reviews.

[@Hiluxtaco]

Tommy seemed more excited about that used silver Range Rover than that brand new Ford Maverick.. 😂

[@DestinysComputer]

Software defined vehicles will usher in a new era of unreliability.

[@Tbar24]

Tommy: I agree with you on pretty much everything you said!

[@sidneyrobinson9186]

with the GT-R the game changed, Nissan NEVER did

[@Tbar24]

Ford should’ve redesigned the Edge. Huge mistake imo. That segment is hot.

[@atmartens]

Agreed. Only guess I’d have is manufacturing space?

[@Tbar24]

@ Maybe so. Sad, it could’ve done great with a redesign. I’m pretty sure they sold a ton since 07. Instead they slapped a giant screen and the interior looks like it’s from the mid 2000s.

[@nlitend1]

We had a 2014 and now a 17. Really like the size, 3.5l na is reliable. 203000k and going strong. No issues.

[@seanmackey1469]

Ford wanted to close the Oakville plant to retool for EV. It didn't go to plan so now Oakville will assemble HD trucks

[@SeanDuu]

The Ram Classic was the last new vehicle I wanted to buy. You can't beat the engine-to-screen ratio (5.7L/5").

[@Hengsha]

I think with a small exterior redesign and a big interior redesign the Camaro could have ate up the Charger/Challenger market.

[@evankatz2893]

You guys are the best, I remember your first video ever, Keep up the fine work, Mary& Jen a superb addition to the TFL Family! Evan, Rockland county, NY!

[@OldThomMerton]

Infinity . . . when the QX30 came out I was stoked! A smaller Infinity, great-looking, sporty-adjacent, economical, comfortable. Oh, Man I wanted that one to succeed. The 2nd Venza . . . it was a placeholder as Toyota finished up the Crown and Crown Insignia. You missed one thing, it the was the placeholder Hybrid SUV.

[@benrhoads6406]

So exciting are these big changes in the auto industry. So brutal and beautiful are the products of evolution. Cheers everyone to power management technology and the motivation to make our planet a better place for tomorrow.❤

[@BigAl22]

Totally agree with you guys about the supercars. I've got a 1997 Daihatsu Mira TR-XX Avanzato R4 up in Rochester NY that I get to daily besides in winter, and it's a blast!! Cheap too. Could buy 30 of them for that $150k 911.

[@c-square7375]

I find the design of the K4's rear downright inelegant, especially the lights. The Forte was designed by the same person as the Jetta Mark V and had a flowing design.

[@triaxe-mmb]

44:43 that is a concept / design study. Whatever comes to market will not be that...will have a lot of tones from it but not that for sure

[@henryrodier8024]

I would be happy with a nice 912 , as far as daily drivers I would buy a Jetta TDI a decent car for a affordable price.that gets 50+ to the gallon and 700 miles of range .

[@marklewandowski5996]

great pod! FYI 996 911's can be had for around 30K.

[@christianglaude6659]

Everything you guys are saying, I totally agree 💯

[@ecarfun]

You guys talked about mini, but no mention of the Mini SE (I guess there is a new generation of it, so it's not quite dead? (Little SE hatchback not the Maxi Countryman or the clubman) It looks like it may be a long time before we see it in the US again, delaying production of electric hatchback in the UK)

[@bryaninnc5511]

Sure, the ZL1 and, to a lesser extent, the SS Camaro competed with the Corvette, but the other trims did not. I doubt many people were cross shopping the lower performance trims with a Vette. The LT1 was the "right" Carmaro, it just came too late.

[@sidneyrobinson9186]

also why does ONLY the driver door get mechanical release?

[@koryewell5610]

My dream classic car is an 80s Honda Prelude, not a Countach :)

[@zcon]

Your maverick was only $2000 cheaper than my 2022 TRD Off-road Tacoma when I bought it new

[@0347kali]

Can apps be un-installed like a phone?

[@2151abell]

I love these types of podcast with you two but you seriously need to work on how to Stop cutting one another off mid sentence....Its over the top.

[@donschiffer7400]

I grew up wanting a Countach until I tried to get in one.

[@triaxe-mmb]

1:00:42 tata indica i believe, not the nano

[@williampisano7573]

Chevy bring back the fire bird 🦅 🔥on wide body Camaro platform

[@triaxe-mmb]

12:00 all those things Roman listed are standard compromises with older high performance/supercars

[@atmartens]

I’d argue that the Ridgeline was the truck we actually needed but was always made fun of for not being body on frame. The only difference is the size. Ridgeline is a mid size and Ford tackled a low end price tag and smaller truck… which is what people wanted. Also realize that Ford got rid of all their small cars and focused on trucks. Easier to meet CAFE standards and people like trucks. Ford was very smart for doing it.

[@SuperMustangred]

I test drove a used Titan. It was not a quality truck.

[@triaxe-mmb]

41:41 they should have built that! Nissan lost its way so hard... They could have done it as a detuned version or something...500hp was probably enough back then to compete with M, AMG, and RS on performance

[@atmartens]

It’s funny hearing you talk about the Camaro and Corvette. It’s the same reason why Ford, Chevy and Ram didn’t/don’t make a mid size truck is that they thought it’d take away from the full size truck sales. It’s the same with the Camaro… it is taking away sales away from Corvette. It’s gotten so expensive and the base price of a Corvette was always right there. I do agree that GM got to serious. It’s the same deal with the Chevy SS. They’d rather talk and show their cross overs because they sell… the Camaro was always an after thought. Meanwhile the guys at Dodge are doing bat shit crazy colors, trims and names. GM didn’t even do a going away trim. It’s just sad.

[@texandy89]

My dream car to own is a Shelby Cobra 427 with the Cobra Jet engine, or a Ford Galaxie, or a Ford Torino, with a 429 Cobra Jet, or a Plymouth Superbird.

[@youtubecarspottersguide1]

thing we need auto on tail lights , turn signals that auto turn off after 5 min s

[@McchickensGivemeWoodies]

Look at these two handsome studs !!!!

[@unhandleme]

So glad you guys don’t spend much time on a track (other than the drag strip, of course - always fun!). I have zero interest in watching anybody on a race track.

[@shawnvigil4824]

Just like the lightning

[@TheCamper83]

I'll never understand the attitude of nothing else matters unless I have this car or that V8 engine or 911 anything if your family lives in a trailer. Now if you truly can afford it then that's a different thing altogether.

[@kirkwagner461]

It is more fun to drive a slow car fast than drive a fast car slow.

[@radanovics]

Next time on TLF Classics, Tommy buys a Lambo

[@shawnvigil4824]

Wow...coming from a car show ...dont wanna talk to your car? I wish the truck i love the most would talk back to me

[@perpelle]

The A5 was fugly for being a 2-door. It's just to big and long.

[@markcoopers1930]

I'm not sure buy the Camaro and Corvette overlapping argument. Maybe in the c7 generation? But in the final Camaro year it was more than possible to get a Camaro with a V8 and no handling package for people who wanted a more muscle car feel. Or if you're a young kid trying to get into the performance car, you could get a smaller engine intro level with a few suspension goodies far more affordably than you could get a Corvette. Gm doesn't make the Saturn Sky/ Pontiac solstice anymore. The ct4 non-blackwing is rear-wheel drive but it's not really performance oriented, Or a bargain, even if the chassis is good. I think Ford coming out with the dark horse below the GTD is a testament to how the same model can appeal to different parts of the market for the experience they want from their American Coupe: it can be a convertible cruiser, a drag racer, sports car, or a track weapon. And that's something that is very underrated in today's market. To make a long story short, if Toyota can manage 5 different SUVs that have the same seating capacity (not even counting Lexus), Two sports cars doesn't seem like a big deal.

[@1FiftyOverland]

They give that warning because a lot of incompetent drivers hit and kill tow truck drivers.

[@rk-xv4km]

Cars should be built with two docking stations. One for your tablet and one for your phone. If the manufacturer want to sell you a cellphone and a tablet then great give us a deal. By the way :there have been computers in cars since the cadilac in the late 1970's. Yes they hired a contractor guy G. Creighten. But they are good at computer control systems. They are not good at tablet computer software.

[@ftwtech]

Didn’t know Roman went to NU! Go Cats!

[@brandondevahl552]

Because there is a human with a family working on the side of the highway that just wants to make a living and get home safely. Thanks for laughing at our safety to a large audience. BD’AZ Towing

[@is6566]

Everyone wants you back home safely but lighten up man. It was a very funny section because a Fiat warning about a Tow Truck ahead fits the perception of that manufacturer completely.

[@1FiftyOverland]

Nobody cares about EVs

A older VW Golf Gti with a manual trans and prior to all of the interior digital bs

[@1FiftyOverland]

Never been a fan of Lamborghini's.

[@shawnvigil4824]

Because everything is becoming a suv or crossover these days

[@digital_0630]

You guys spent 15 minutes bashing companies overdoing software in new vehicles but then you bash certain companies during your reviews for not having “good enough” software compared to others. 😂 make up your minds!

[@donschiffer7400]

Makes sense to me. If you’re going to do a big screen you should do it well.

[@markcoopers1930]

"Too much" and "bad" are not mutually exclusive. Both can be true at the same time and both can be false at the same time. All cars have some level of electronic interface, there's no avoiding it anymore. But it's possible to have a small/ reasonable amount of features, and/or have the features designed and function in a way that is not clunky, laggy, unintuitive, illogical, or an eyesore.

[@gnoxycat]

Mechanical bugs, just like software bugs, is why we have Amish people. During the steam revolution and early ICE mechanical things sucked soooooooo much. No standardized parts, nobody knew how they really worked. And it broke some people. So we have the Amish who said no to all that nonsense and will not deal with it. Software is where mechanical things were 100 years ago.

[@shawnvigil4824]

And when you put the vehicle in drive they will actually go! What a joke

[@gnoxycat]

Test drove a new Mercedes yesterday. Had buttons for HVAC. Complete garbage. Never again! Put it on a screen where i can find wtf is doing on, not these buttons that all look the same, no idea if something is on or not. If you have buttons for this carp, I am not buying.

[@jcollins1305]

All cost cutting. And if you’re buying a MB, I don’t want costs cutting!

[@lordcorgi6481]

The problem with the Camaro was it's a horrible driving experience. You can't see out of it, the ride is one of the worst experiences, the seats are church pew like, and they really didn't change anything since 2010. It might've been faster on the track, but it's no where near as fun to drive as the Mustang. The Mustang is still around because it's the complete opposite of all those things.

Nothing Porsche makes now is fun for the money..all too expensive..

Audi.. needs to stay away Fromm super cars.. I had a 1986 Audi Quattro 4000 and a 1990 Audi 90 Quattro both expensive cars for the time. but Audis current line up is all ho hum no manual trans all too expensive.. but I like the A3 RS
