Tonight on CEP! My special guest is Rochester's own Warren Buff-It! No, he's not the Oracle of Omaha, but he details cars for the stars. We discuss:
- Some of us aren't cut out for corporate, and that's okay!
- Starting a small business, being free to be who you were meant to be, planting seeds, and leaving a legacy.
- Chasing dollars versus being your passion
- Preserving your reputation
- Tons of menus but nobody can figure out the heated seats or radios
- Squeezing the balloon
- CarBravo, GM's surprisingly good answer to Carvana
- New car screens as the latest way to over-stimulate and control
- The thankful demise of in-dash app stores that bring you to Dunkin Donuts
- Captive audience vs Taking care of people
- Country songs about self-driving trucks
- How Bluetooth car locks can be easily hacked - and how one journalist took a potshot at Tesla
- Cloud-controlled cars, and the unsurprising news that GM user accounts were hacked
- The gorgeous Mercedes EQXX goes 626 miles on a single charge, with juice to spare! Where did they go wrong with the production model?
- BMW's IDrive 8 - how it took everything from version 7 and threw it out the window, proving yet again that most software gets worse with each new version.
- And finally, some of the coolest cars Warren has detailed over the years.
