These Are the 2025 Best Cars for Families
For this week's podcast, we're talking about family cars. Maybe you've even shopped for one of these.
We're also discussing onboard diagnostics, the best cars for families, and the wheels falling off with NASCAR in Las Vegas. Also, are NASCAR races too long?
TTAC contributor Matthew Guy and I bat that idea around, and we also discuss onboard diagnostic tools for your car. Alex Kwanten from U.S. News and World Report stops by to discuss their best cars for families.
As always, you can find us wherever you get your podcasts -- or by clicking here. If you like what you hear, please leave a review!
We thank TTAC contributor Matthew Guy, Alex Kwanten from US News and World Report, and Matt Posky for editing. Most of all, we thank you for listening. We’ll see you next time!

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh ""The 10L1000 transmissions are built by GM and vetted by Allison"" .. ewww for tranny? your not losing anything killing the brandingThe term "10L1000" refers to the Allison 10L1000 10-speed automatic transmission, used in 2020 and newer heavy-duty GM Silverado and Sierra trucks with the Duramax 6.6L diesel engine. It is a heavily modified version of a jointly developed Ford/GM 10-speed platform, engineered by Ford with Allison branding and designed to handle increased torque and offer better fuel economy compared to its predecessor, the 6-speed Allison 1000.
- Wantahertzdonut Among my parent's friends (all engineer/teacher couples), they were friends with one couple that stood out because they were legitimately cool people. They had a 900 and I'll never forget getting a ride back from dinner on hilly roads in western NY in 1989. Everyone else had some rusty penalty box of a car, but that Saab proved to me then there's more to life than practical cars.
