Anyone know what that trailer is they are pulling with the hybrid? Looks kind of cool.

If you're talking about the travel trailer, it looks like an Airstream Basecamp.

I just watched the episode I referenced in my original post and it wasn't this "First Drive". It was a new full road test.

Meh, Motorweek is behind the times. I find their "reviews" are way late and come up short on actually learning anything new about the vehicle by the time they are released. They basically haven't updated their formula from the 90s, and it shows. I'm much more looking forward to the "full review" release from Alex on Autos.

I agree. I still watch it occasionally for nostalgia sake, since pretty much started watching it when it first came out when I was like 13. If I record it, I usually end up fast forwarding through most of it.

IMO, Motorweek is less of a "review" source and more of an "overview" source. In that context, I like them. John gives you a quick 30,000ft view without getting into nitty gritty details which in some cases, I'd rather not dive into at certain times.

FYI, that was not the Hybrid pulling that trailer. That trailer is beyond the Hybrid's 2000 lbs. limit. If you watch other videos of that Tennessee event back in October, the hybrid was towing some different trailers. https://tfltruck.com/2021/10/video-...erick-and-its-completely-not-what-i-expected/
