Test Driving a New Car on a Freeway

Video Transcript

"BILL ZERVAKOS: Hi, I'm Bill Z. CATHY DROZ: And I'm Cathy D with Two for the Road USA on behalf of Expert Village. CATHY DROZ: In this clip, we'll talk about more specific characteristics to check for. You have to remember that you're going to have to drive this car everyday and you don't know how many times Bill and I have heard people complain about things they didn't notice on the first test drive. And it just drives them crazy. BILL ZERVAKOS: Oh, that is so true Cathy and it's something we've talked about a lot with people. And what you'll notice we're doing here is we're just taking a nice cruise down the city streets here, just getting the feel for what the car is all about. And making sure that we're comfortable with the way it feels out here. We're going to take a little quick turn right here and jump on the freeway. Watching this, we've talked about noise. Listen for just a minute. Okay, that's under moderate acceleration on the freeway. So check this out again, and make sure it's something you could live with. There's no [INAUDIBLE] in here, that's just with the camera inside the car. So you can kind of get a feel for this if this particular car would be something you'd be comfortable with because noise, vibration, harshness is kind of a big thing. We're going to jump off the freeway, take a little bit more of a turn on the highways before we continue the road test. CATHY DROZ: We'll continue with more about the test drive in our next clip."
