ThosL Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 http://www.cartalk.com/ Have you ever called these jokers for car advice? An organic farmer once recommended I call them on a car problem, are mechanics in general so reluctant to give good free car advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) it is entertainment in the form of car repair advice. i enjoy listening to them. but i'd rather get ''good'' suabru repair advice here at usmb.

987687 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I thought they stopped doing the show last year, and now they just do re-runs. I did call them up once about something (I knew what was wrong), but hey, it was good for the entertainment and wrong advise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Pin Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 They are fun to listen to and they make me laugh. I think most of the show is reruns these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I heard they retired within the last year or two...........so it is re-runs you are hearing for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartless Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Yes, they retired September 2012...any shows you hear are "reruns" http://community.cartalk.com/discussion/2285752/ciao-tom-and-ray#latest Still funny stuff to listen to, but no calling them now.

roadsubiedog Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I come here for subie advice and usually the consensus is right on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 they're extremely good but not as accurate with platform specific issues that bear themselves out in a focused forum like this. if they did focus on one brand they'd be like USMB in radio format. but one person can't specialize in every make/model/platform/nuance.
