Sticker Shock: Trump’s $5 Billion Dollar Tariff Tornado

Joe White, writer at High Speed Rodeo and former auto industry correspondent at The Wall Street Journal and Reuters joins the show today for (yes, another!) discussion about the auto industry’s tariff turmoil. First, we dive into the chaos caused by Trump’s tariffs, with GM staring down a whopping $5 billion cost hike this year alone. From skyrocketing parts prices to disrupted global supply chains, automakers like GM and Ford are sweating bullets, swiftly taking a U-turn back to gas-guzzlers and deregulation dreams. Next, we talk about the impact to your wallet. Consumers, brace yourselves for pricier rides, fewer jobs, and a bumpy road to affordable transportation. Not to mention the fact that suppliers and dealers are now caught in the crossfire, facing margin squeezes and uncertainty. So who will prevail and emerge successful? Is there a wild card in the mix? Is it all just doom and gloom? Press play to find out more!
