TTAC Podcast: Talking Frozen Teslas With Tom Appel and Chris Tonn
Hey there! Welcome back! It's time for episode three of our new and improved podcast.
You may have heard about some Tesla owners getting frozen out of charging stations in Chicago 10 days ago or so. As our guest, Consumer Guide Automotive Publisher Tom Appel, lays out here, the story is a bit more complicated than that.
We also talked about our first drive of the 2024 Kia EV9, the state of EV charging in general, our dream cars, and some of our favorite and least favorite cars of the 1990s. As usual, we thank eBay Motors for sponsoring us.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- Tassos I never look for stupid "tunes" either on the road or anywhere else.I bring my music (the Great Music, not damned "tunes") with me, but on long trips I enjoy books on tape I would not have had the patience to read at home (my two homes look like BOOKSTORES, and not filled with the crap the average moron reads either). One category of books I never had the patience to read was Philosophy, but I did enjoy borrowing books on CD on the subject and listening to them on long trips.PS I bet the fake Loser listens to.. "country"...
- Tassos I AM A WEAK PERSON™️ AND WILL CONTINUE WITH MY LOW VALUE COMMENTARY.
- Tassos I WAS ONLY STOPPING BY AFTER A 2 MONTH HIATUS BUT NOW I AM BACK TO MAKING MULTIPLE UNHINGED COMMENTS ON EVERY ARTICLE. I TASSOS, AM A WEAK PERSON.
- Cprescott Very tough test. Through the use of a time machine, the Ford engineers were able to prevent 10 future recalls. No Fake Mustang has ever gone through so much development - and that also applies to anything else they build at Ford.
- Cprescott Another golf cart that will be collecting dust on dealers' lots.
