In their own words

We are just three guys that annoy our friends by constantly talking about our mutual love of everything cars, so we started a YouTube channel called "AVE Automotive". We realized that wasn't enough, so here we are with a podcast. This way we can share the conversations we have daily (about the automotive industry, what we've been driving, and our car related experiences) with all of you! This platform will give us the change to dive a little deeper into the topics we can only scratch the surface of in our videos. *We own 10 vehicles between the three of us...

  • to hear what a $500 Celica with a leaking gas tank taught Ted and Josh about cheap cars

Best episodes of AVE Automotive Podcast

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.

Is This a Car Podcast?Apr 27, 2023

A loose garage chat that turns car shopping into real-world arithmetic.

This episode keeps coming back to garage math: whether a Golf R or a Cayman should make way for one car, and whether a V10 R8 or a GT4 still makes sense once the price is on the table.

1946 Willys Jeep Confuses Indiana BMV & Listener QuestionsApr 20, 2023

A Willys Jeep catch-up that turns ownership math and car stereotypes into the main event.

AVE Automotive comes back from a hiatus with Ted, Nick, and Josh in a listener-question episode that stays close to the practical side of car ownership.

New Cars in EU Will Be Zero Emission By 2035Mar 30, 2023

EU CO2 rules, e-fuels, and a few sharply felt van annoyances share the spotlight.

Ted and Josh, with Nick possibly joining later, use the EU's CO2 no-go standard to sort through what e-fuels do and do not change. The piece stays close to policy language and car-world consequences, treating Porsche's synthetic-fuel work and the idea of CO2 neutrality as part…

Favorite Engines By Cylinder Count! Are Sedans Important?Mar 10, 2023

A loose hour that turns EV picks and sedan shopping into easy car talk.

Ted, Nick, and Josh turn a viewer-questions hour into a loose but useful pass through EV shopping and midsize-sedan choices, starting with a fuzzy-camera joke before settling into the Kia K5, the Accord, the Camry, the Sonata, and the Legacy.

The AVE Trio Gets Personal - Life Outside YoutubeMar 2, 2023

A loose car chat that turns work updates and house repairs into the real story.

The episode starts with Ted, Nick, and Josh answering the familiar question of what they do outside YouTube, which gives the conversation an easy, personal rhythm.

Talking About EVs is ComplicatedFeb 23, 2023

Loose car talk that turns driver-assist ethics into the real subject.

AVE Automotive Podcast opens like a car conversation that changes direction almost at once, then settles into autonomous driving and the moral questions that come with it.

What is Section 179? Josh is Learning to Fly!Feb 3, 2023

A relaxed, practical hangout that turns golf costs and banter into the main draw.

This episode stays with the small stuff that tells on people: snacks, drinking habits, golf fees, and the plain math of whether a membership is worth it.

Is the Miata Overrated?Jan 26, 2023

A loose debate that turns Miata hype into a numbers problem.

A loose debate about Miatas and the GR86 gives the episode its shape, with the argument resting on horsepower, torque, and weight instead of any neat verdict.
