In terms of of the LA Auto Show recap, Ciminillo discusses the reveal of[the Toyota bZ Compact SUV Concept]() as well as some of the other new vehicles revealed at the show. She also teases a video she shot on site about the best third-row seats in mid-size SUVs. One of the news items discussed concerns a stop sale and recall of the new GMC Hummer EV. Apparently there are concerns over the [high-voltage battery enclosure being improperly sealed](). While owners who have taken deliver of their vehicle can drive it, there are those who’ve paid for the vehicle that can’t take delivery until this issue is resolved. And there is no resolution in sight. Finally, Esterdahl and Ciminillo return to the hydrogen discussion, as Toyota is going to start producing [a hydrogen fuel cell kit for semi trucks]() in 2023. Esterdahl and Ciminillo do weekly livestreams on YouTube, which are projected out to Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
