I know in the last episode of The Straight Shift, I promised you guys we would be talking this week with a client of mine about his experience owning an electric vehicle and why he decided to go back to gas. However, we're going to have to push that to next week because at the time of this recording, we were recently hit with Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Here in Charleston, our impacts were relatively minimal compared to the absolute devastation seen in our mountain communities. So today I want to talk about the impacts of the hurricanes and the surprising ways they will affect the automotive industry – from chip manufacturing to looking out for “flood cars”.

Topics:

Quartz and how the computer chip industry is affected by hurricanes hitting the mountains of the Carolinas
An overview of the manufacturing process of a computer chip and why quartz is a necessity in the process
More on GM closures in Texas, port closures in Tampa Bay and Jacksonville, and how this is also impacting manufacturing and logistics of car production
Forecasting the effects of the upcoming demand of new cars after insurance writes out checks for the damaged/lost cars from the hurricanes
Different ways you can support with the hurricane relief efforts as the devastation is ongoing
