Car Talk #1725: Blame It on Bernoulli
This week on The Best of Car Talk, Katie's roommate's pseudo-scientific explanation for getting her Civic's door stuck on a sidewalk struck her as bogus, so she's turning to two pseudo MIT grads. Can Tom and Ray separate truth from bogosity? Elsewhere, Tim and Pam need a ruling on whether his joyride on a washboard road crushed her Saturn's engine mounts. Also, can Gene's Corolla survive 100,000 miles with a leaking fuel pump and axle seal, and a dope slap reminder to check both daily; Flo's Mazda has bad universal joints or jockey shorts that are too tight; and after two years of driving with a wobbling rear wheel has Keller's luck run out? All this and more, this week on The Best of Car Talk.

I did 30 years of driving truck cross country. On the weekends I used to listen to these guys. They were the best.

My dad listened to this when he took me to little league baseball as a kid. Now I listen to it driving to work at 5 am everyday. Time flies

I remember while Tommy was still around, I was a taxi driver in Newport News VA. Listening to him and Ray together made the Saturdays that I worked more pleasant.

I’m a machinist,I listened to NPR all day, I loved the station. I look at the programming on NPR today, SAD.

Thank you so much, these are some of my heros

[@ColdWintersDay-gh9rr]

Man, this reminds me of roadtrips with my family. We always used to listen to NPR in the car and this was our favorite show. So, my tech savvy brother (don’t drive like him) used to download episodes from their website back when you could still do that (not sure you can now) and burn them to CDs to take with us. We could guess how far we’d travelled by how many episodes we’d listened to. Good times.

As young Millennial from BeanTown Massachusetts i love to hear these fellas voices. Even when I having a bad day I tune in to NPR talk show for these old school Bostonian gents.

Anybody who has a 1948 Buick convertible is not going to donate it! I wish I could post a photo of my 1951 Buick Roadmaster.
