Introduction to Seasonal Car Buying
Speaker 1Hey y'all , welcome back so what do you got going ? Well , lately I've been looking for cars . No , not cars , car .
Speaker 2You're just going to buy one .
Speaker 1Just one . There you go For our youngest , who is still home and needs something you know like point A , point B kind of car . Need something you know like point A , point B kind of car Get to school , get to church , get to stuff you got to go to .
Speaker 2On time , on time , yeah .
Speaker 1That will crank and get him there and come back . So definitely have a set budget for that and , you know , put you in a certain the price point , put you in a certain level of vehicle . So I'm looking at Facebook Marketplace , AutoTrader , stuff like that .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1Which is a lot of back and forth .
Speaker 2Are you talking to people or are you just texting ?
Speaker 1Yeah , it's the whole Facebook Marketplace culture of A they never get back to you , b they do , but it's what you figured . There's a crack in the radiator or something like that . Or you actually do go check out the car and , oh , we already sold it .
Speaker 2Oh yeah .
Speaker 1Or if we drive it around the block and go okay , maybe we should get it , because we always , anytime we buy something , we get it checked out Like you know , take it to some place get an inspection , like at a Goodyear or either a mechanic or something , but it's usually got to be like at a stop in somewhere I don't know . I'm at the point . Do I invest in one of those little things that you plug in it like throws up the code of what's wrong with the car ?
Speaker 2DIY inspect it myself , kind of thing . I wouldn't know how to do that .
Speaker 1Anyway , it's a whole thing because you know it's hard to trust people and like an example of that is so they should just rent beater cars for teenagers .
Speaker 2I'm saying Just kind of .
Speaker 1You could have a whole business . You can have a little bit of rust on it , people don't care . Durable , yeah , I mean of rust on it .
Speaker 2People don't care . Durable yeah .
Speaker 1I mean , the teenager cares , but we don't care . But , like you know , I'm looking at a car . It was on Facebook Marketplace , I think it was like a Civic or something maybe a . Mazda version of a Civic I had a Civic . And you did have a Civic . And so the description of the car . You know it's got like high , 100 000 miles on . Maybe he's got 200 000 . We don't care if it's , if it's running , we don't yeah , whatever does it work ?
Speaker 1because our other kids got like hand-me-down cars or you know whatever and they they're still going . You know , knock on wood somewhere but say you flip , it's like it runs good , da , da da , great condition . You're looking through the pictures and it's obviously like a very like small car lot or somebody that sells more than one car at a time , because written on the windshield . In the corner of the windshield in one of the pictures it says won't start .
Speaker 2I don't want that one .
Speaker 1I'm like either take that picture out .
Speaker 1Yeah , and try to fool somebody , fool somebody , or hey , we'll just take cash for it . You're going to have to put some work into it and tow it . It won't start . Who's buying that ? I don't know . But the description , don't know . But the description don't match the picture and this is where we are , you know . So I don't know , I don't mind if it's like hey , this has a cracked windshield because we could get that fixed . Or you know little stuff . You know scratches and dents . Gosh , everybody's car's got a scratcher .
Speaker 2You know what I mean like , but I um yeah , I don't mind getting a tune-up or something like that , that's fine . You need one of those cars like like you see in the movies , like when he goes to buy the like a transformers yes and yes , uh shia labouf yeah , is it bernie mack or cedric to entertain , or b ? Or Bernie Mac comes out and he's the car's house . Or like the car Dalton gets in Roadhouse . Remember that . No , I don't but they'd just be like 800 bucks . That's what you want .
Speaker 1Yeah , just get a bunch of spare time . Can there be a car for 800 bucks ? I'd be amazed . Yeah , it's probably not 800 .
Speaker 2I think the first car I got , a Honda Accord . You did it was the first car I like legit was mine . Uh-huh , I think I was 19 or 20 . Man , I don't remember that and it was great . I think it was $2,800 , which is pretty cheap Mm-hmm , but it leaked everything but gas . Oh , okay , so I had to like water it . It was like a plant .
Speaker 1I had to water it every morning If you wanted it to take you somewhere .
Speaker 2Right , it would overheat .
Speaker 1Oh yeah , About every two or three days . Yeah .
Speaker 2You'd have to blast the heat , roll down the windows and like keep moving .
Speaker 1Mm-hmm .
Speaker 2In Montgomery Alabama .
Speaker 1Yeah , in like .
Speaker 2August .
Speaker 1What ? Yeah , In like August ? What do you ? Got to fan it and like feed it grapes . I can't afford to sweat . I'm going to get rid of all the oil .
Speaker 2You don't want that .
Speaker 1Yeah , yeah .
Speaker 2No .
Speaker 1So anyway , but so there we go . I've been doing that lately .
Speaker 2Let's get a motorcycle Cheaper .
Speaker 1If they only had an invisibility cloak , kind of like Harry Potter , but protective for you know , what I mean . Because , yeah , motorcycles Not in a teenager , no way .
Speaker 2Uh-uh no .
Speaker 1That's a bad combo . I don't want a motorcycle , I don't want anybody . I love to drive a motorcycle , actually .
Speaker 2I always kind of wanted one .
Speaker 1I kind of wanted a scooter Honda Elite scooter .
Speaker 2Remember when scooters is it still remember ? I know in Alabama because I remember you would get brochures for the scooters .
Speaker 1Well , that goes back to her dad , who always got brochures for everything You're like . Are we getting a Mazda 626 ? No , your dad just stopped by at the dealership on the way and talked to them until they closed and then they said take these brochures and our car .
Speaker 2They said here's every catalog we have we're closing . Yeah , yeah , he would give me . I had all the catalogs for like the , I think , when the Mustang changed over in like 95 .
Speaker 1Oh , wow .
Speaker 2No , it was like it was early 90s . Like the body style changed .
Speaker 1Yes , like 92 , 93 . Yeah .
Speaker 2He's like I got you a catalog for all the new Mustangs and I was like what . So I've got it picked out Like do I want ?
Speaker 1Candy apple red .
Speaker 2I'm in my room like do I want ?
Speaker 1convertible .
Speaker 2I should probably just do a hard top , because I mean , but I probably won't . I like blue . But yeah , I've got everything picked out . Should I get the six disc changer in the trunk ? Oh man , yeah .
Speaker 1It was never to be .
Speaker 2It did not matter .
Speaker 1No , just get them a catalog .
Speaker 2That was the equivalent of anybody who stopped at a rest area and just picked up waterfalls in alabama ?
Speaker 1pamphlet yeah , you ain't going to the water , you're not going , you're already going somewhere . You're at the rest area , but somewhere else , I should say . But you just pick them up yeah , hey , look at this one .
Speaker 2They got space camp .
Speaker 1Imagine what that would be like just imagine it though all right , period end done . But yeah , get them a catalog . Well , they don't need , you , don't ?
Speaker 2need catalogs , no , just get on . Would be like , just imagine it though All right , period End Done , but yeah , get him a catalog . Well , you don't need catalogs , no , just get online .
Speaker 1He's building his own online .
Speaker 2But it's a Porsche online .
Speaker 1Yeah , yeah , yeah , that's a yeah , I mean , I could do that too . I could get in the weeds of that . Be like .
Speaker 2And then you go to like the model or whatever .
Speaker 1Oh yeah .
Speaker 2I just need the most basic . I don't care , I don't need all the frills and all that stuff . And then you click on it . You're like I mean that LX is a little .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2I mean , I do want a heated seat . Right , the next thing . You know you're like what's a premium ? Yeah , I mean it's not that by it's a premium , I mean it's not that by the time you're done you're like , oh my gosh , what have I done ?
Speaker 1Maybe if I just take the tow hitch package off , you know , like as if you got a boat Like at that point it's just play money anyway , you know that's . That's just like doing an adult coloring book or a puzzle . For me it's like well , let's , let's dream about getting a new car , anyway so car shopping don't like it . I haven't done it . We gotta do it pretty soon I guess in a year did you lease your car ? Uh , I actually did lease it and then oh , but people are on the fence about that .
Speaker 2People are like you're , either strong opinions yeah , you either lease , and that way you never have repairs or yeah , but we ended up like in the car and so we're like whatever we're just option to buy , or whatever we just bought , or yeah , yeah , we stuck with it .
Speaker 1Yeah , stick with it , I'm used to it yeah , yeah , and you have a hyundai what is it ? Big suv , what's ?
Speaker 2that A big one , what's it called Palisade ?
Speaker 1Palisade .
Speaker 2Yeah , which it was during COVID . So we put a bunch of miles .
Speaker 1Oh right .
Speaker 2Yeah , doing road trips . Yeah , so we stuck with that . I want to get . I asked Braxton . I said would you want to drive a truck ?
Speaker 1because then I could always have a truck when I needed it .
Speaker 2He's like I don't really want a truck . I'm like , well then , we'll see .
Speaker 1We'll see how that goes , You'll just drive whatever there is for you to drive , if there is one for you to drive .
Speaker 2Guess what a good deal was on , yeah , the truck . But you have to maintain . The hardest part is maintaining the hardest part is maintaining them .
Speaker 1My car needs an oil change right now , which I can remember when those were $29.99 . Of the little Valvoline . That is the inflation and the Oil changes .
Speaker 2Eggs ain't got nothing on an oil change .
Speaker 1Oil change is like do you want a timeshare or an ?
Speaker 2oil change .
Speaker 1I don't know what's happening , but you go get an oil change . I don't know what's happening , but you go get an oil change . I don't even replace the filter , but that's $110.99 , whatever .
Speaker 2Are there gold flakes in the oil In ?
Speaker 1the oil yeah , I don't like it .
Speaker 2I don't either , and then they'll go .
Speaker 1But I got to do it yeah you got to . Because you start to hear that old noise Always , you know , when you hear a little like because they say you can go 5,000 with the synthetic , I go at least five , maybe 10 . I've hit over four and I can tell , I can just tell when I put the gas on .
Speaker 2Yeah , I did the synthetic last time because I was like wait a minute , it gets me extra .
Speaker 1Yeah , and then they tell you really only need to come every five .
Speaker 2But Well , I went like a step up because I was like fine . I said no first because I was cheap and I was like I ain't paying that .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2And then they were about to do it and I was like , wait a minute , how often do I have to come if I do synthetic ?
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2And then they told me , I was like sure .
Speaker 1Yeah , but then when you go to pay , what are you putting in here ? Yeah , yeah , it's bonkers . Do angels make it ? It's insane . And then they come up . Hey , wish you a wide percent , they are just fine , thank you did I get here ? Yes , I don't ask me one other thing . Do you want a fuel injection , something , something a little bottle , something they put in your gas tank ? No you can keep that add-on stuff . You know what that's like ? That's like the candy at the checkout at like TJ Maxx or something .
Speaker 1Yeah , we ain't buying anything except what we come in here for .
Speaker 2Or it's time for , like the radiator flush or whatever .
Speaker 1I ain't never done that . Have you ever done ?
Speaker 2it , just take this $100 bill and flush it down the toilet . While you're at it , let's just do another flush .
Speaker 1Speaking of flushing .
Speaker 2Oh yeah , Not to change .
Speaker 1Oh , not to change subjects , it's a maintenance Speaking of maintenance . Yeah .
Speaker 2Yeah , robin had to have my wife . She had to have her first ever , which I didn't know this . She had never had any surgery , never been under anesthesia . Really she's never had to have anything done . No , she did have two children .
Speaker 1Yeah , right , as far as procedures that aren't giving birth , yeah , Right , so I didn't know . Wow , so she'd never been under .
Speaker 2So I always got something wrong with me .
Speaker 1Oh yeah , Joining the club yeah .
Speaker 2So she had to have a colonoscopy .
Speaker 1Yeah , it's the thing these days .
Speaker 2Yeah , that's how you know you're getting old .
Speaker 1Yeah , have you scheduled your ? Yeah , I know what you're going to say .
Speaker 2So they give her the stuff to drink . Now I did it back in the day .
Speaker 1Yeah , you and I did early ones because we have extra fun yeah .
Speaker 2I did it where they gave you like a gallon and a half of I'm going to call it sand water .
Speaker 1With some bacon soda or something in it salt . It was something nasty , wasn't it I ?
Speaker 2managed to get like 75% of the way through that because they said you got to drink all of it , yeah .
Speaker 1And then I got about three-fourths of the way through it and my body was like you don't have to drink all of it , because I just Either that or you're going to see it again or something .
Speaker 2Yeah , my body just shut down . I was like you aren't doing it , but hers was just like a little white bottle . Looked like the size of something for your contacts , like a big little six-ounce yeah A little six-ounce , eight-ounce bottle .
Speaker 1Right , that was it .
Speaker 2Well , she had to Mix it with Gatorade or something . Maybe it was like 10 ounces , I don't know .
Speaker 1Okay .
Speaker 2But she had to drink some of it straight and then drink it again and then set an alarm for three in the morning .
Speaker 1Wait what ? Yeah , that's what yeah , and drink new , so she didn't get like any sleep . Oh yeah , because you're up .
Speaker 2Yeah , you're not drinking this and going back to bed anyway we don't need to sleep on the toilet . Yeah , um so she was so tired so she'd never been under before . So when she woke up she was just like that , wheeled her through the whatever waiting area and I could see her just talking or whatever . And she was like man , I slept good .
Speaker 1It's so cute .
Speaker 2It was like 30 minutes , but she was like ooh , she was like I bet that was good sleep they put you under , they make you do it .
Speaker 1Yeah , yeah . But yeah so are you do it yeah ?
Speaker 2Yeah , but .
Speaker 1Yeah , so are you scheduling one ?
Speaker 2No , I'm done . I did one a long time ago .
Speaker 1I ain't doing that stuff .
Speaker 2No , okay .
Speaker 1Well , I'm scheduling one because I'm a real follower and but I have to go see my primary care because I need to see him first before I get the . Anyway , it's a whole thing .
Speaker 2See , they make it too hard , that's why I don't do it Well .
Speaker 1I had to also have one in my when I was 40 . So it's been , it'll be 12 years in a minute . But um . But then I was like , well , while I'm at it , I'm probably overdue for the dentist , went ahead and scheduled that appointment . Still have to schedule my eye appointment because I'm overdue for new glasses prescription . I've been to the dermatologist this year because I had to have something removed that looked suspicious .
Speaker 2And .
Speaker 1I think it was fine . And what else ? Oh yeah , going to the girl doc . You know just as women have to do and make sure everything's okay and all that Lovely . Oh , and I did a trip to the podiatrist .
Speaker 2Good grief .
Speaker 1What am I 90? .
Speaker 2Yeah , yeah , that's a lot .
Speaker 1Yeah , because you know now I got some foot issues now that I'm getting older , so it's like , oh my gosh , so before May I'm definitely going to knock out my deductible for sure which is kind of high . So I was saying something . It's like , oh hi , what ? But last year I didn't kind of do anything , you know .
Speaker 2And I what . But last year I didn't kind of do anything .
Speaker 1you know ? Yeah , I took a decade off . Well , sounds like you're still taking a decade off .
Speaker 2I don't get tetanus shots .
Speaker 1Oh , I haven't gotten one of those ever . I love those .
Speaker 2Every time you go , I don't go for I think when I turned 40 , I went for a checkup .
Speaker 1Yeah , that's the last time I went for a checkup . Yeah , which ?
Speaker 2Yeah , that's the last time I went for a checkup , yeah , which was seven years ago , and he said like when's the last time you had a tetanus shot ? I say the same thing every time I'm like probably like eight years , I always say eight .
Speaker 1Say eight If it's been over 10 .

Speaker 1Yeah , yeah , you'll go to the urgent care . They'll give you one .
Speaker 2I'm not putting up barbed wire to keep cattle in . When am I getting cut by rust ?
Speaker 1I don't think that's a regular thing , though even I think that , like they stopped asking that question when I went . I guess , I don't know .
Speaker 2I'll say this I felt old when we went for her colonoscopy , because I used to always make fun of Robin , because she would say like hey , can you read this medicine bottle ?
Speaker 1What does that say ?
Speaker 2And I'm like , golly , you can't read nothing . Yeah . But six months later I can't see anything . My vision's worse than hers , so we go in to the waiting room . Yeah , I've got sweatpants on . Oh yeah , Probably the same ones I'm wearing today Sweatpants on reading glasses around my sweatshirt .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2And my iPad .
Speaker 1Yeah .

Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2I never thought I'd . Yeah , I went from 40 , 46 , 47 . And instead of 47 and a half I just went straight to like 82 .
Speaker 1But the level of I don't care . Yeah , I don't care Is so refreshing , like the way I will go out in public now , like sometimes I go . Is Randall going to care ? Yeah , like that's my barometer , if Randall was ever like . I mean if you want to wear it , but I mean he never says anything , oh yeah .
Speaker 1I'm not throwing him out of the bus at all , because he's always like whatever you want to wear , but like I wonder if he's wondering because and I'm not talking about like going to someone's house for an event or- you know , yeah , I'm talking about like just going to run errands , but like Ain't nobody going to judge .
Speaker 2No , yeah , if I see you out buying something .
Speaker 1Nobody's judging , nobody cares , you don't know .

Speaker 2Yeah , I think Jonah said that last time he like mom yeah , sports clips is it's . I mean they're all expensive , but they are . It's worth it , though , because when you leave , you're like it does feel good to get a fresh cut it does . Yeah , yeah , my husband shaved his beard today oh speaking of maintenance man , I shaved mine like maybe six months ago how long have you had that beard ?
Speaker 1that you six months okay , no uh I thought you know all the way off , not like just trimmed . Oh , I didn't , I wasn't listening all the way off , like maybe you know , maybe four or five months ago okay , will you shave the beard you have now before summer ? No , really , you'll keep it during the summer . Yeah , see , his was big .
Speaker 2Yeah , I used to have I'm trying to think when I started doing a beard . It's probably been like three or four years .
Speaker 1You haven't shaved your face all the way down in three or four years . Yeah , I have Like once or twice , okay .
Speaker 2But then every time I do it I'm mad at myself .
Speaker 1Wow .
Speaker 2Like I 'll shave you get it . Like I get it now . I'm like why are people obsessed with having a beard or whatever ? I'm like who cares ?
Speaker 1Because you get it like you want it , kind of .
Speaker 2Well , it's just , and it's just like you kind of , you know just mess with it .
Speaker 1Oh yeah , totally . You know you're kind of like thinking .
Speaker 2You know I'm in deep thought , I'm going to ponder something . Yeah , but like even if I trim my beard like too much , I'll have like instant regret .
Speaker 1Wow , I guess that's similar to maybe girls with their hair , like , if you have long hair , a girl has long hair and she's like I'm just going to chop it off , and then they're crying . I mean I didn't cry , but I thought about it . Yeah , I considered it .
Speaker 2Anyway , tears make it grow back faster .
Speaker 1Yeah , he , he's Make it grow back faster . Yeah , he's got something . He's got a film . And he was like , yeah , so that's the longest he's ever had a beard . It's been about six months , I guess , maybe six , seven months , and he was trimming it like some , but like his was like full , you know .
Speaker 2Yeah , like Santa Claus .
Speaker 1Yeah , like I was like oh man , look at your , I forgot the shape of your face . Look at your , I forgot the shape of your face .
Speaker 2Yeah yeah , you look way younger when you shave it .
Speaker 1I will say that and he had almost all gray . It's almost all gone to gray , yeah , mine's getting more Santa-ish every year and
Finding the Right Vehicle for Your Teen
Speaker 1Ben didn't know he was shaving his beard .
Speaker 2Was he like scared ?
Speaker 1And he came in this morning and he goes hey , ah , I'm not yet and this is like a 17-year-old . You know , you've seen those little videos of like the little kids that are like three , four , five years old , and the dad's always had a beard , they shave it , they come in , oh yeah . And the kids are like , hey dad .
Speaker 2Same . Thing .
Speaker 1They just start crying , yeah , basically , it was like I don't know this man baby , and what did he do with my father ?
Speaker 2yeah , exactly , but anyway . Um , what's easier to trim your beard than go get a colonoscopy ?
Speaker 1I mean , it's easier maintenance yeah , you do not have to drink stuff in the middle of the night . I mean , I guess you can , if you want , to do whatever you want , but you can just wake up and trim your beard . Yeah , yeah , the the worst part of those types of things , like those tests , is getting the IV .
Speaker 2For me , oh , I can't stand it If there wasn't an IV for those kinds of things .
Speaker 1I've already been up on mine and gotten it done when I turned 50 , because I have to psych myself up for about 18 months and be like , OK , this appointment is going to have an IV .
Speaker 2Here we go , here we go and once they do it it's like , okay , it's done , but before they do it , IV lightheaded , that's yeah , I don't . And then they do it in the hand .
Speaker 1Oh , or right on top of the wrist they get they brought Robin out .
Speaker 2You know which . I don't know why they wheel you through the main part of the hospital , but whatever . So they wheel her back there .
