The opposite of the dystopian future we all longingly anticipate could be in the cards if a certain piece of legislation is successful. Leno's laws seeks to provide shelter from the almighty smog monster for all vehicles 35 years or older. This could be huge!

So... what would have happened if Toyota made their take on the 911 in the 1990s? What if Pontiac took the Ford Bronco in the mid 1980s and created their own version? What if Chadwick's favorite auntie was Frank's creepy handsy uncle? This and more on this week's episode of the APA Podcast!
