Ep152 Cars we'd drive if invisible, trauma surgeon safety, Geo Metro seen, plastic parts are bad
Episode 152
Thursday, 5 February, 2026

Chris Harris had an idea we explore: what car would you drive as your daily driver if it were invisible and you didn’t have to worry about judgment? What about a “weekend car”? We list 5 of each.Steve-0 spots a 1990 Geo Metro. Believe it or not he drove one for a year in the mid-1990s to save money. A 3-cylinder shitbox with 55Hp, the Metro was a true deathmobile. But it was surprisingly well built and so cheap to run. We discuss.Dr Stephan Moran, our trauma surgeon, gets into specific problems seen with older and younger drivers. Both are high risk demographic groups, and he discusses how they can minimize risks.Dr Moran, also an experienced shade-tree mechanic, is frustrated by the recent move by OEMs to replace some electronic parts with expensive "modules" and many steel parts with plastic "equivalents". Ugh he hates it all (so does Steve-0)#carsoncallpodcast #traumasurgeonsafety #automobile #geometro
