Chris, Sam and Dan convene for Autoblog Podcast #171. First up, as usual, is the Autoblog Garage, then we hit some news items.<br />
<br />
News Items are the McLaren MP4-12C, JD Power's Vehicle Dependability study, the Fiat 500 EV, a study that links being green to meanness and Saab's return to production. Wrapping up, we answer some questions you've emailed in, and we're done in just over an hour. <br />
