#1426: The Sleek Black Beauty

Original Air Date: 06.28.2014
 




Description:


This week on Car Talk, 

Tom recounts a day that will live in Magliozzi family infamy

   when Ray sent his beloved 1965 AMC Ambassador, a.k.a.,
    "The Sleek Black Beauty," to the crusher.

 Elsewhere, Ron's check engine light has been on for 75,000 miles,
   and he's beginning to think it might be time to figure out what's causing it;

 Ellen's looking for an intervention to help cure her fiancé of his
    non-stop shopping for performance add-ons for their Blazer;

 and, can Casey's career as a bagpipe maker help rid his car
     of garter snakes? 

  And, from the Department of Gender Numismatics, 
   why do women pay for things with change and men don't?

    
   
            All this and lots more, this week on Car Talk.
