2026/10/14

Imagine owning an electric vehicle that charges itself while sitting in your driveway—or even while you're driving down the highway. No charging station required for some of your daily trips. Science fiction? Maybe not.During this episode of TechMobility Topics, I explore Aptera's unconventional solar-electric vehicle and its ambitious attempt to change how we think about transportation. With its futuristic three-wheel design, lightweight construction, aerodynamic body, and integrated solar

For generations, owning a home was a cornerstone of the American Dream. But for millions of younger Americans, that dream is rapidly becoming financially out of reach.For this episode of TechMobility Topics, I examine how skyrocketing home prices, stubborn mortgage rates, limited housing inventory, and the disappearance of affordable starter homes are creating enormous barriers for first-time buyers.Even young professionals with steady jobs and good incomes are discovering that saving for a down

What if the next vehicle sent into a dangerous battlefield isn't a tank or armored personnel carrier, but a Ford F-250 pickup—with nobody behind the wheel?In this episode of TechMobility Topics, I explore the U.S. Army's plans to test autonomous Ford F-250 pickups for high-risk military assignments. By adapting commercially available trucks with self-driving technology, the military could reduce soldiers' exposure to deadly situations while potentially lowering costs and expanding

Why High Diesel Prices Could Make Almost Everything...

TechMobility Topics ·

2026/10/07

Diesel isn’t just another fuel at the pump. It’s one of the fuels that keeps the American economy moving. Trucks haul much of the nation’s freight, while diesel also powers equipment critical to agriculture, construction, and other industries.In this TechMobility Topics segment, we examine why refining constraints and tightening diesel supplies can quickly become everybody’s problem. When fuel costs rise, trucking and agricultural expenses climb—and those increases can work their way through supply

2026/10/07

What if a power-starved satellite didn’t have to rely entirely on its own solar panels? Wireless power beaming could eventually turn space itself into an energy network, transmitting electricity where and when spacecraft need it.During this TechMobility Topics segment, we explore whether orbital power grids could support satellites, spacecraft, and potentially energy-hungry data centers in space. The concept could change how we design and operate orbital infrastructure by separating where

2026 Subaru Trailseeker: How Much Subaru Is Really...

TechMobility Topics ·

2026/10/07

The 2026 Subaru Trailseeker Touring EV wears a Subaru badge, but its family tree tells a much bigger story about how modern vehicles are developed and built.In this TechMobility Topics segment, I get behind the wheel of the Trailseeker and explore its Toyota connections, shared EV architecture, and what platform sharing means for buyers. I also dig into what matters once the technology becomes your daily driver: its wagon-like practicality, huge 14-inch display, NACS charging compatibility, range

Can a High Tariff Bring Lincoln Home—and Make It...

TechMobility Topics ·

2026/10/07

A tariff can change an automaker’s manufacturing strategy almost overnight. Ford’s plan to phase out China-built Lincoln models for the U.S. puts a 52.5% tariff at the center of a much larger conversation about where America should build its vehicles.In this TechMobility Topics segment, we look beyond the tariff itself to what reshoring can mean for manufacturing jobs, wages, suppliers, and the communities surrounding an auto plant. Bringing production back to the United States can create economic

California Wants Your Next Set of Tires to Save Fuel....

TechMobility Topics ·

2026/10/07

California is targeting something nearly every driver eventually has to buy: replacement tires. New efficiency standards are putting rolling resistance under the microscope, aiming to reduce the energy vehicles need just to keep moving.In this TechMobility Topics segment, we examine how tire design can affect fuel economy and EV range, what lower rolling resistance could mean for drivers, and whether efficiency gains translate into meaningful savings at the pump or charging station.But tires are

2026/10/06

Your mouth isn’t separate from the rest of your body. Emerging research on the oral microbiome is revealing how bacteria around our teeth and gums—and the inflammation linked to gum disease—may connect to health far beyond the dentist’s chair.During this TechMobility Topics segment, we explore growing evidence linking oral health to cardiovascular disease, diabetes outcomes, and cognitive decline, especially as we age. We also look at why chronic inflammation may be a key part of that connection and

Are We Cleaning Microplastics—or Just Moving Them?

TechMobility Topics ·

2026/10/06

Wastewater treatment can keep microplastics out of rivers and streams—but that doesn’t necessarily mean those particles disappear. Instead, some can concentrate in sewage sludge, which may eventually be processed into biosolids and applied to agricultural land.For this TechMobility Topics segment, we follow that troubling environmental loop from wastewater treatment plant to farm field. What happens when microplastics, along with their associated chemicals, move from water into soil? Could those

2026/10/06

Robots don’t have to look human to work alongside humans. A robot centaur with glowing eyes and power-tool hands may seem like science fiction, but its unconventional design points toward a much bigger shift in industrial automation.In this TechMobility Topics segment, we explore why engineers are experimenting with radically different robot forms and why function may matter far more than appearance on the factory floor. From welding robots and warehouse automation to exoskeleton-style systems that
