I realized something this morning, watching PBS for a Texas travel episode, next was MotorWeek with its array of $40K+ vehicles: there’s no working-class car show on any channel for those of us who don’t work in the public sector.

In Austin it’s particularly obvious in traffic who works for the gov (and hasn’t felt an ounce of pain since the ‘08 crash) vs. all the private-sector people driving 5,6,7,8+ year-old cars, you can see it before you even glimpse the .gov parking stickers on the windshield, with the Zero bumper stickers.

Motorweek is still on?

I haven’t watched any of that since I had to on Friday afternoons when the the program feed came down.

MW usually did the higher end stuff from what I remember of it. Goss’ Garage was fair. I prefer Sam’s on Saturday AM.

Higher end gov drones here in SC have no problems either.
