Wake Up With Jim

Tesla represents more than an evolutionary milestone in the history of the automobile. It is a tangible link to the dawning of the auto industry when independent auto manufacturers survived and thrived through innovation. 

On this mornings program America's storyteller shares the tale of two manifestations of that independent thinking from the 1970s - the Gremlin and Pacer manufactured by AMC. Rarely seen today, both cars were hot sellers. And they set new industry standards. 

Today's program is sponsored in part by magical, delightful, wonderful Tucumcari, New Mexico.
