America's Car Show
America's Car Show was a weekly American call-in radio program and a magazine format television program focusing on cars and the automotive industry. Callers call into the radio program with their difficult car problems, and host Tom Torbjornsen attempted to lead callers through diagnosis and gives suggestions on how to repair their vehicles. Torbjornsen frequently emphasized that automotive technology has progressed rapidly, and because most cars now have built-in computer diagnostic systems, he warned his listeners to not use "do it yourself" remedies and instead have the car taken to a professional, using the advice and diagnosis from his answer to the caller's question as a starting point. The show also has interviews with guests in the automotive and related industries. Examples of previous guests in related industries include car sound systems, radar detectors, GPS, electronics, and biodiesel.
