I have one glaring weakness in life, and that's cars.
Love them, love to look at him, love to buy him.
The Big Detroit Auto Show is going on this week.
What are the latest designs, features in trends, what's hot?
What's not? We're excited to have nine ten am, Detroit's
(00:25):
new news talk superstation as our fiftieth affiliate, and with
it comes the services I guess of Henry Payne, who
works for the Detroit News and also does auto reporting
for nine ten am. Good morning, Henry, Hey, I good
more than Michael.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Good to be with you.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
All right, talk to us about what's hot and what's not.
I've been reading a lot about the new Subaru design.
What are some of the design things that you're seeing
that would quantify as a trend.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Well, the evs have been very hot. So electric vehicles
been very hot last four years in part because of mandates,
and now we obviously have a new administration coming in
that's stripping away seventy five dollars subsidies, and so EV's
are not front and center at this show the way
they have been. So Ford, for example, Big sold a
(01:16):
lot of EV's over the last four years. They're putting
forward a Lions Special Edition. You can imagine how huge
the Lions are here in Detroit. They're putting forward a
new Mustang GTD, virtually a race car. This thing is
so really leaning into their gas powered icons and pushing
(01:41):
the EV's back a little bit.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
A nineteen eighty I believe two tone Ford Mustang my
first car ever. What makes it a Lion's Edition.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
It's got Lions logos all over it, and when they
introduced it, Jared Goff popped out, So I don't know
if you if you sold everyone with Jared Goff popping out,
I would say these things are going to go fast.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Oh wow, Henry Paint, is that the big Detroit Auto show?
In Detroit? I looked, I saw the new design of
the Lincoln Nautilus SUV, and I noticed that they took
that instrument screen and took it all the way from
the driver to the passenger side. It is really good looking.
Are we seeing more of that and any technology changes
(02:28):
worthy of note?
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah? Absolutely. You know you go back ten years in
this show when the first Tesla Model S review came out.
That car was mobbed because of that big center screen,
and so that trend has continued in this industry. The
Lincoln Nautilus is spectacular with the wrap around a pillar
to a pillar screen, and you're seeing that from every automaker.
(02:51):
They're all leaning into these electronics. I just came back
from the Consumer Electronics Show before the Detroit Auto Show,
and that's become a big show just because cars are
basically smartphones on wheels today. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Uh, I you know, I could never go back. I
love old cars and I would love to own one,
but I just couldn't go I mean, you can add
this stuff after market, I get, but I mean things
like when you go in reverse and you know you
can see the camera out the back. I couldn't live
without that anymore. I know in the in the in
the Keia that my wife drives, if you turn the
(03:26):
left turn signal on, you get that camera showing you
the lane you're turning into. I am a big fan
of the what do they call that when the I
can see the speed limit or my directions kind of
projected out onto my Yeah, I forgot what they call that.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Yeah. Yeah, it's all part of adapter cruise control. Yeah,
where you can.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Cruise control, which I love, you know, when I'm when
I'm traveling. Uh, what might be next, Henry Rally?
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Cars want to drive themselves now, Michael, So I get it.
I have a Tesla Model free here in the garage
and I get into that and I set a destination
and go hands free and it'll drive me there. So
that's a little freaky, I think for a lot of folks.
But you're going to be seeing a lot more of that,
a lot more self driving cars, particularly on interstates where
(04:17):
you want to travel a long distance and you want
to relax a little bit with your hands off the
office steering wheel. You're going to see a lot of
manufacturers here in the next couple of years, Chevrolet, Nissan,
Mercedes allowing you to drive hands free on the interstate.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
All right, what's the apple of your eye at this show?
What's the one thing that sticks out? One new design
or the one new product.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
The what's neat about these shows? Or the concepts? And
the Cadillac has their design concept on the floor. Just
a spectacular thing. It was introduced last year in California,
Monterey at the big high end show out there. This
is the first time it's appeared on a car show
(05:03):
floor for the masses to see. I think that's worth
the price of admission to see a state of the
art concept car is really spectacular, and to me, Candillac
is best in show.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Oh you got it, Henry Payne. He In addition to
being the automotive reporter at the Detroit News, you're also
the political cartoonist as well. Love. We had a Simpson
Sampson Simpson I think it was, and Telsa Glomo was
one of the best editorial cartoonists I ever had the
pleasure of knowing, and he I got a couple of
(05:35):
his originals. How did you get into that real quick
in one minute?
Speaker 3 (05:39):
That fascinates me. Yeah, I know him. He's very, very
talented fella. I got into this business through cartooning. I've
done cartoons all my life, and so I actually got
into this business as an editorial cartoonist. Love loved the business,
and I've just kept working into becoming an auto columnist
and doing a radio show. So it keeps me busy.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I was just gonna say, but because for cartoons, that
was always my favorite thing. I know, people had certain
things like they would go to farside or the crossword puzzle.
I just always love to go to the political cartoons
in the newspaper. And most people don't snap newspapers anymore.
It's all digital now. Don't know how that affects a
cartoonist like yourself. I guess they just post them online, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
That makes it better actually, because with what's online, then
you can be right on top of the news. So
I can draw today about Pete Expus testimony yesterday, for example,
and be current.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I was just going to say, in the current political
climate in America today, there's a lot to draw about,
all right, appreciate it. Henry Henry Payne, who is our
