Would've been interesting to see the Three and Leno on the same show. Not sure the format, Leno is 10-years older than Jezza and May...

Every time Leno talked about a vehicle or, a location, you were expecting them to jump in and go for a ride...nope, just a wealthy guy giving an impromptu tour of his spectacular car collection.

Golly, Jay is looking old. I should talk.
I took away from that these 2 messages:
1. You need to drive a car or it will go bad.
2. Electric cars don't require maintenance.

Just a battery tender for the car electronics if you don't drive.

Leno's collection is incredible. Museum quality, but they all run!

If you get to Nashville the Lane museum, which is open to the public, has a diverse and ever-changing inventory - of which essentially all of them run.

I was really struck by James and Jay discussing the benefits of EV's over ICE cars, with ICE cars described as for the hobbyist.
I don't think we're there yet; eventually we'll get there with better battery technology, more charging stations, and a more reliable power grid--and nuclear power, of course.

Elon Musk is posting on X how we're all going to be like Norway, which is outlawing new ICE cars after 2025!! But they are heavily subsidizing this with their proceeds from North Sea oil!! And of course there are no really long distances people are going to drive--realistically--in Norway.
