It never gets old listening to Chris Harris talk about cars.
Agreed I’ve listened to this about 5 times now
This is probably my forth listen.

The joy Chris Harris gets from winding up Matt on Tesla gives me hope for the future. Absolute legend.
Talk about the tug-o-war without having a coronary.
Wow Matt was so on point with Cybertruck. It’s 2022 and still no word from Tesla.
Combined with the Roadster being removed from the Tesla website, it shows Matt was right in being skeptical.
@@SeeWorldKevin I used to think Farah unfairly was biased against Tesla/Musk but goddamn it's so apparent now! Cybertruck officially got delayed again until 2023 and even then I doubt they will meet it. Crazy how you can still put $100 down on one lmao
The big 3 had problems building existing models…. Hell, heating the seats in current models the past 2 years. I don’t think you can look the past 2 years against the normal benchmark for a progression timeline in almost anything. That being said, I agree I don’t think this is the Tesla truck we’ll see, but we will see one…. And being a resident of Silicon Valley, no matter how much people hate Musk over Twitter, they’ll still submit to the Tesla status cult. I’m not one of them, LS powered here.
Watching this podcast again and I couldn’t have agreed more. It’s like everyone forgot about the cybertruck and the roadster for that matter.
2023... **crickets**
Can we do a fundraising podcast to make another Chris Harris podcast happen?
+1 on that... Pure fun, honest convo... It's what a podcast is all about...
He has his own podcast... Collecting Cars with Chris Harris, look it up

Chris Harris, you are a class act. You set the standard of automotive journalism.
Chris Harris is the first guest to finally point out that nobody laughs at their own jokes like Matt Farah.
Timestamp?
Because he’s real .
Love Chris Harris, watched his videos long before Top Gear, great he hasn’t lost his humbleness and most of all love for cars!
Wish they would indicate the original upload date in the description.
TheJoeMB end of november '19
I love Chris Harris he's such a genuine bloke
now that matt has the new setup, these old ones look like, 10 years old
Most automotive journalists are only popular in their own country, Chris is popular literary everywhere he goes
I wish he would stop interrupting Chris
I never thought I'd see Matt look like a big cry-baby, so easy to trigger, it's getting tiring. [ skips forward ]
This isn’t an interview, it’s a podcast, and Matt is a car journalist who worked with Chris for years, and their friends. Let Chris decide if he’s being interrupted too much
@@nathanchildress5596 youre lucky i wasnt there to interupt you....
Well that’s because you’re whiny and not interesting. I’d love to talk with any of these guys, even if they dominate the conversation.
@@nathanchildress5596 being interrupted has nothing to do with style of conversation or how interesting the “guest” is but thanks for your input
Whenever I'm down on my luck I always come back to this video and click 37:30 to literally laugh my ass off
i've always enjoyed listening to chris, and this was as good as i expected. his and matt's takes on tesla, its cars, and its fans are spot on. ok, the rest is also spot on haha.
+1.. Thank you. .. An intelligent conversation. . Enjoyable to participate even if from afar... " I don't wear my hiking boots in the living room" .. Priceless. 35:00 .. Wife drives a Subi Outback XT wagon, Me a Carrera S (993) since new. .. SUV's suck. .. Cheers, Vail, Colorado
I love Harris, great attitude and perspective! I really get a kick out of how he shits on pick-up up trucks owners in America/Canada because that's what I drive. Pick-ups are the ultimate! Super comfy, tones of room, power and I can tow and off road which are activities that I do regularly. Plus the last 3 I've owned have been durable!
I think honestly he's shitting on people who use pickup trucks or SUVs but don't use them for offroad capabilities.
You’re the guy who should have a truck. People who just commute should have a wagon or a hatchback. Trucks are for doing work, driving them as a grocery getter is stupid
@@nathanchildress5596 Most pick-ups are sold because of the versatility. Luxury level trim packages along towing capacity are why they sell in huge numbers. People who buy them using them for commuting but then tow/haul boats, campers, snowmobiles, camping/hunting gear with them on weekend. It's how North Americans recreate that makes them so popular.
Sure, trucks do more work than any other vehicle; but they do commuting worse than any other type of car, with the worst mileage. For the 70 grand that new trucks cost you could get a used truck and a wonderful daily driver. But truck guys are too proud to be seen in anything else
@@nathanchildress5596 Lots of pickup owners do that already. F off with what you think you know about pickup owners!
@10:45 "You're literally frothing at the mouth" hahahaa
Chris is the greatest. Love smoking tire as well but just needs more camera angles for driving footage.
It's funny hearing Matt's rant on the fact that Elon didn't build everything himself but hired people to do so, and then constantly hear him say "I built a new garage for collectors" for months.
Meanwhile Elon actually understands physics
Amazing. All of it!!! Thank you.
Excellent work, very entertaining 👏
Lars Blackmore from MIT who previously worked for NASA developed the code to land the Falcon 9. Elon had the vision.
And the determination ... and I don't even give 2 shits about him
I can watch this forever on repeat
Simply the best guest, cant wait for the next one..
I know this is an old video, but the reason car makers have convinced us we need SUV’s and trucks is perceived value. Consumers ‘know’ most Chevy cars aren’t worth 50k, but nobody thinks twice about a 60-70k Chevy truck. And a 60k truck only cost about 1k more than an Impala to build.
I know it's an old comment, but I don't think that's true. SUVs had a huge boom in Europe as well, and we don't really have trucks that are used as personal vehicles here. Honestly, I think it might be that the crash standards forced higher doors and bonnets, which doesn't work well with the "sportscar" look - but does work well with an SUV/offroad design.
Just an awesome conversation for car lovers!
I fucking lost it when Chris told that racing story at the end 😂
Watching this again 2 years later: “How do you make the hatchback cool again?” Honda E!
Hatchbacks have always been cool. Now there is a gla 45 amg level of cool
@@danielbarbee7712 the gla is the least cool hatchback i've seen
lol turns out they did engineer two different m3's for AWD and RWD, three if you count the manual RWD separately. Same for the M4.
It’s like they hate making money
More Chris Harris podcasts please
He has a podcast on collecting cars. The episode with Tiff Nedell is really good
It’s so funny hearing Chris talk about the “future” m3 and how he likes it’s look to what he says now
Andy green audio needs to go up on CC podcast!
Chris Harris is a friggin champ
Such passion
There was a question if the 720S's windscreen costs $14k. It does not, but it's still a hefty $5k. Common issue for both the 720 and the 570. The 570 windscreen pops more often than the 720 and is about $1700. They're both almost always on backorder!
That's why the NSX is a great hipster supercar for blokes like me
its useless to pay that much when you can build a civic or a fox body for 14k to smoke that mc laren and walk the 720
@spencer Kay, you’re comparing apples to oranges. The buyer personas of these vehicles have very different goals. E.g. a fast civic that has bragging rights in a straight line means nothing to a Mclaren owner who spends their time on a circuit exploring the bounds of physics to achieve optimal lap times. If it were all about speed, we’d buy used 1000cc superbikes for $4k and outrun both cars.
@@dragospahontu original version or the new one?
@@cod44449hunks of shit that cant turn cant stop no interior and past 150mph that shitbox is falling to pieces and the mclarens are just gonna cruise by, internet "drag racers" are dumb as hell LMAO
Best TST ep imo
Man, that's a lot of compression on the audio
Fuckin love chris harris! Gonna watch it for the new channel! Love you guys. Thanks for keep me from going insane! = )
lol so that BMW grill was actually real.... wth...
Matt is telling it as it is for the first 15mins. Spot on.
And now we’re halfway through 2023 and this truck is still vaporware.
Late 2023 and they are just starting Cybertruck deliveries.
10:40 he’s the chief designer you can’t argue with that
Intelligent guys, nice podcast 👌
Chris Harris has never sounded so authentic and genuine, I watched a more recent podcast with the Late Brake and he seemed far more guarded. 👍
Listening to this today and still no cyber truck lmao
Did Matt at 24:55 seriously compare his drivng+narration skills to Chris Harris? LOL. Not even close. Now if it was a cursing contest Matt would clearly win.
You are such a twat. "we can both drive at close to our limits and have a normal conversation with a camera" I dont think anyone has ever misinterpreted a statement any worse than you just have. Stick to RC cars you fucking loser.
@@eas26 Calm down Logan you listen to "Trap Queen" lol.
@@gsw8734 uh wot
Farah just said that Harris' limits were a lot higher than his in the previous fucking sentence. Can't you listen Rodders or are you that stupid?!
Why can’t he say that? Matt and Chris were coworkers for years. Yes Chris is a better driver, but Matt is a damn good driver, good enough to be paid for it.
@10:55 Chris tells Matt what we’re all thinking
Anyone know about the Daytona vs plane article?
@TheSmokingTirePodcast The model 3 is like the reverse deloreon.
Think about that.
Great episode!
Matt looks like Joe Rogan Jr. In this episode...lol
Please laugh Matt! We love you!
(curved) broken windshield: trim polycarbonate -> glue it with mamut on frame, done deal
Theramos was about people thinkin they are going to make a huge amount of money.
Like Bernje Madoff.
Everyone invested with him knew something wasnt right. His returns were impossible year after year.
Charities who invested cause that money is for thw good. The good of the executibes of the charity living large
Where’s the Larry Chen upload?
When they speak about cargo ships being the problem, just remember a cargo ship gets 36 FEET PER GALLON. screw miles per gallon those things get feet per gallon lol. look it up
@Justinian Yi You beat me to it... if you want a truly meaningful comparison it would have to be something like "lbs or tons or hundreds of tons per gallon." When the volume of cargo gets to that scale you really have to change your perspective.
20:45 lol
I think even when this was recorded it wasn't the case that Tesla got any tax incentives in the USA, and were making money on the cars already.
2022 ... and we still don't have the Cybertruck
"sorry what show are you on?"
Chris: 1:50:05
First five minutes adverts?
Is this a re-upload?
Ikr, i think it is. I definitely watched this way before two weeks when this particular video was uploaded
@@harvinmahal yeah, I was so excited then dejavu hit me.
I think it is! No way it happened in June this year! It's like from 2018!
@10:34 @TheSmokingTirePodcast, Elon is literally the Chief Engineer of SpaceX.
Alas Bloodhound ran out of money long before they put a rocket on it.
Not sure why there's a stack of digestives on the table
There were literally almost 5 minutes of ads
For more than an hour of free show. That’s way better than TV, do you remember TV? You had to pay for that.
@@nathanchildress5596 the editing & equipment to film a TV episode =\= the cost to record a podcast
Good podcast because its got matt on it lol but hey it could be Matt's podcast for all I know tho lol.
Lol I could be missing a joke here, but yeah it’s his podcast
Bro, he's the chief engineer of SpaceX
This video aged too well
Matt, you reckon it's an SEC violation. Didn't they go after Tucker for legitimately taking deposits? 🤔
10:38 🤣🤣🤣
Farrah seemingly can’t deliver a single sentence without saying “fuck”..no problem with the word but some people just suck at cursing.
1:52:00 i really hope savagegeese gets to something bigger if/when they are done with youtube; it's unfortunate that youtube won't promote their best car reviewer because SG doesn't ask for subs and likes with each video.
2022, still no Tesla truck....
The opening argument in this episode is word FOR word the exact same as when tesla announced there first car, its not real and never will be ect
33:00 - on Lithium mining, as Chris does not know 'how to spanner' he misses the point that Lithium grease or Molybdenum grease is packed into every internal combustion engine and it does not stay in the car.
They may not need as much Li as a battery car, but, battery cars don't need to be 'repacked' with Moly or Li grease every few years!
It's not just the lithium though is it, it's the 4x as much copper, the large amount of cobalt and god forbid all the REE present all of which add up to a horrendous human and environmental damage. For electric cars to succeed we need to seriously cut down on the amount of niche elements used.
Regarding EV Charging:
1. If you see a public car charging, you can't remove it.
2. If you decide to cut the cable or break it, be prepared to explode if for what ever reason it doesn't trip the power in time to save your stupid ass.
3. Tesla's V3 supercharger is stupid fast.
1:09:30
1:32:28 haha
Get him back!
I AM KRIMINALE
Tell us about the watch brand that is disrupting the industry Matt.
Why is Matt so mad about Tesla and Elon? Its pretty cringe
Because while Tesla’s drive well their business practices aren’t ethical. Factory working conditions, treatment of owners, not providing replacement parts, selling reservations on 2 cars they haven’t even built. Not a good company.
964 is by far the best looking 911
The lights on the 993 just don't work in my opinion.
Mat is the new Alex Jones.
for that to be true hed have to be talking about water powered cars "coverup" and selling his fake car economy booster or something equally as shady ;)
Bullshit, Alex Jones has no facts on his side, Matt does. You can yell if you know what you’re talking about
Chris talking about motoring freedom one moment then says people shouldn’t buy an SUV because he thinks they are stupid. 🤷♂️🤷♂️
The fact that you don't understand the distinction, proves you're dumb enough to buy coal rollers
35:14 A-fucking-MEN
This gents is how you do it “ I wouldn’t go convertible mondial” fast forward 6mons to him owning that very thing
30:53 joe biden has entered the chat
2023, still no truck, still scamming folks
Trying to be Rogan so hard. Similar setup, sitting the same side as Rogan does, similar backdrop to the old studio, similar Jamie esq supporting role played by Zack. Plus he's annoying asf. I'm just here for Chris.
He literally said in a video that he copied Rogans Set-up because it works the best. No shame in copying from the best...
You know that's the basic format for like 2/3 of podcasts
@@slidewayzgreer2740 not down to the specificities I pointed out, Captain obvious
@@FIREPHOENIXX234 I didnt know that. Even so, I think hes taken it too far where its corny. He can still capture the same magic but put his own flavour to it.
@@shammi13 you didn't point out any real specifics you just felt like whinging
I WILL ALWAYS DISLIKE BECAUSE ALL REVIEWS ARE NOT ABOUT TANTAL AK’S AND MERCEDES AMG’s
Fast forward they both think Tesla is built like shit.😂watch the new podcast
sounds like the bag of edibles were quite entertaining!! not sure about the rip on tesla for the truck pulling stunt 15:20 because all the car makers are all full of crap (its heavy as hell with all the batteries). what tesla are good at is the ads. they don't spend one cent! the cybertruck is ugly. but its also made from bent stainless steel. not moulded. its cheap as hell to make. tesla are the EV people to beat.
fords slogan used to be "more metal for your money" and i agree with chris. the lotus elise is a great car. however also noted that in the 35 years that we have bad lotuses in the family... i have noticed how they went from normal size car to tiny car by comparison of other road users. indeed in 20 years time the bmw mini will be the same size as an escalade.
Coming off as a hater now on the Cybertruck and Tesla
2024..... so......
F bombs left right and center being thrown by Matt, feel like he's gonna have a stroke in any moment now
Come on Chris from one English man to another, how can you say you don't won't to be part of a car cult and then elegiese standing at the from of the congregation in the church of Porsche?
If I say I love Chris Harris does that make me gay? I'm married to a beautiful woman, but I love Chris Harris.
I'm slowly starting to see Matt as an out of touch rich boy
How so? Curious ...
@@xprettylightsx just some of the thing he says about cars that aren't expensive, I know for a fact he does come for a rich family
Chris harris needs to do his own broadcast, love having him on
Love matt too but his hate of tesla is off putting, sounds like and old angry grandpa hating on new technologies. Matt even vw’s CEO is praising Elon, hes single handily changed the automotive industry, i think we are far enough into this to keep saying all they do is vapourware. Anyway more chris please
