A timber-frame “cathedral” filled with Mopar muscle cars and neon signs sounds like a myth until you hear it from the guy who built it. We sit down with John Hovis, creator of the Hemi Hideout near Brookshire, Texas, to talk about the passion that drove him to collect late-1960s and early-1970s Dodge and Plymouth legends, why an original Superbird still stops people in their tracks, and how the space has grown into a full-on automotive time capsule.

We also get into what makes the Hideout more than a private collection: weekday tours, a volunteer crew that loves telling the stories, and a simple model that turns visits into local charity donations. John shares why the building itself matters, how the memorabilia and vintage signs became a second obsession, and what it’s like to keep adding pieces when you’re “running out of wall.”

Then we jump from old-school horsepower to modern electrons with Jeff’s Motor Minute nostalgia and Don’s review of the 2026 GMC Sierra EV Denali Max Range. We cover claimed range vs real driving, towing and payload, the sheer weight of a big-battery electric pickup, and why missing Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is a real talking point for buyers.

What would you rather tour first, the Hemi Hideout or an EV truck showroom?
