Author: Unnamed Automotive Podcast July 20, 2025 Duration: 47:03

This week, the Unnamed Automotive Podcast discusses Benjamin's newest addition to his garage; a second-generation Nissan Pathfinder! Find out what led him to this Japanese SUV, and what makes it so interesting (hint, it has something to do with its transmission!)

Then Benjamin shares how his latest trip to Canadian Tire Motorsports Park went as he towed his way to the track in a Silverado HD 2500. Hear answers to questions like "did it have adaptive cruise control?" and "how much worse was the fuel consumption while towing?" and "do you need all that truck to tow a car?" Thanks for listening!

You’re probably used to car reviews that stick to horsepower figures and trim levels, but Unnamed Automotive Podcast takes a different exit. Each week, automotive journalists Benjamin and Sami sit down to tear apart the latest models and the industry at large, but they do it with a blend of genuine expertise and unscripted humor that feels more like a conversation in a garage than a formal critique. They get into the weird quirks of car culture, share honest opinions that often bypass the usual press kit talking points, and aren’t afraid to laugh at the absurdities they encounter. This isn’t just specs and performance data-though that’s in there, too-it’s about the stories, the personalities, and the unexpected moments that happen when you’re truly passionate about cars. Tuning into this podcast feels like hanging out with two friends who happen to know everything about automobiles, making it a perfect mix for anyone who loves cars, comedy, or just hearing a fresh, unfiltered take. You’ll find their chemistry drives the discussion, turning each episode into a ride that’s as entertaining as it is informative.
