Transcript
- 0:00Adriana: Is there something that Stellantis goes as crazy as having a $300 payment?
- 0:07Adrian Gonzalez: $300 payments, guys. Yes, it is. They ran it for one month, and I hadn't seen it ever again in like three,
- 0:15two years. I think it's been two and a half years.
- 0:17Guys, just do the math: $549 on a $73,000 MSRP.
- 0:21I've seen 700 Beacons get declined on a lease.
- 0:23Adriana: They don't call me the lease master for nothing.
- 0:34Hi, guys, and welcome back to the Smoke Break podcast.
- 0:36I'm Adriana, and today I'm joined with my co-host.
- 0:39Adrian Gonzalez: What's going on, guys? It's Adrian, the FCG.
- 0:42Adriana: Oh, God.
- 0:43Adrian Gonzalez: For you guys that know what the FCG is. You guys already know.
- 0:46Put it in the comments below if you know what FCG stands for.
- 0:48Adriana: Oh, my God. Don't put that in the comments.
- 0:50Adrian Gonzalez: All right, guys. Today we're going to have a very special podcast.
- 0:52Today, we are November 4th, 2026, and they just released the incentives today.
- 0:58So, this podcast is going to be driven specifically just for incentives.
- 1:02Every single model and trim, Stellantis released some crazy, crazy incentives today.
- 1:07And I told Adriana, hey, we need to let everyone know.
- 1:11So, stay tuned for the full episode. Watch what is going on right now in the Stellantis world when it comes to
- 1:17incentives and why right now is the best time to buy a vehicle.
- 1:20So once again, welcome to the Smoke Break Podcast.
- 1:25All right. So this episode is going to be 100% dealing with incentives, and we're going to go ahead and glaze through
- 1:30them really quick. So 2026 offers. Right now, we have a lot of 2026 inventory.
- 1:36So I have a list of a couple things here.
- 1:38Adriana: But we can talk about employee pricing.
- 1:40Adrian Gonzalez: Okay, so right now, guys. Majority of our units right now have employee pricing.
- 1:45What that is, as you guys may know, if you guys do any research on the internet, you guys know what an
- 1:50invoice pricing is. Invoice is whatever we pay for the vehicle, right?
- 1:54So, we don't own the vehicle for $0, we own it for a certain amount of money, and then whatever we market
- 1:59up from the invoice to the MSRP is what we call our profit margin.
- 2:05So, the manufacturer is going to go ahead and participate and help the consumer and the dealership advertise
- 2:126%. Under invoice pricing. So that in itself from MSRP,
- 2:18when MSRP is another five, you're talking about 10, 15, 15% off on from
- 2:24MSRP. So employee pricing, true employee pricing, which is going to be 6% under invoice,
- 2:30is now active from here to the end of the month, unless something changes.
- 2:34So what does that translate to? Well, because it's not just invoice pricing.
- 2:39It is invoice pricing plus rebates. So there's some rebates that are available also with the employee pricing.
- 2:46Usually, when they do employee pricing, it's going to be employee pricing or rebates, whatever you want to pick.
- 2:51That's not going to be.
- 2:52Adriana: A lot of the times it's either or. We are seeing on selected models, guys, that employee pricing and there is some
- 2:58stackable rebates. Come take advantage of them.
- 3:01Adrian Gonzalez: So, what does that translate over, right? What is it, Adrian?
- 3:04You know, if it's going to be invoice pricing and some rebates, what does that translate to?
- 3:09So, we're going to go over some vehicles real quick.
- 3:112026 Ram 1500 Crew Cab Laramie is going to be $17,400 off of
- 3:18MSRP. Number two, 2026 Ram 2500 diesel is going to have $16,880 off
- 3:25MSRP. That is in combination of rebates and employee pricing.
- 3:30Number three, 2026 Jeep Gladiator Four-Door,
- 3:33$7,494 off MSRP. Again, combination of employee pricing and some rebates.
- 3:39Adriana: Yeah.
- 3:40Adrian Gonzalez: 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee, $8,585 off MSRP.
- 3:46Adriana: Wow.
- 3:47Adrian Gonzalez: 2026 Dodge Charger Gas with your twin-turbo Hurricane engine. That one's going to have
- 3:52$7,995 off MSRP. Wow. So,
- 3:58this is going to be in combination with the rebates, and these are straight up, these right here.
- 4:03Full disclosure, these discounts might not sound too crazy because people that are advertising crazy discounts
- 4:11usually come with a hook, aka additional stuff. They'll give you less for your trade.
- 4:15You must buy, you must be within a 25-mile radius.
- 4:19These are straight-up discounts that if you walk in my dealership right now, you will get.
- 4:24100% you qualify for whether you live here in another state, whatever the case might be,
- 4:29whether you're trading in, whether you're not trading in. Some dealerships say you must,
- 4:35if in order to get everything, you must trade in.
- 4:37This is not additional rebates that it may have, such as
- 4:42additional or conditional. This is not including loyalty rebates for having Stellantis vehicles.
- 4:48Lease loyalty, if you currently have a Stellantis lease, this does not include military first responders.
- 4:53So if you have any of the other conditional rebates, You could still tack on to these.
- 4:58These are straight up rebates that every single customer can qualify for.
- 5:01So the best standalone right now is going to be 0% at 60 months on eligible 2026 Ram
- 5:081500 Lone Stars. That's going to be the Big Horn, Laramie, and
- 5:13the Lone Star. So that's going to be a standalone rebate: 0% at 60 months.
- 5:18Adriana: So how do you feel about these incentives? Have you seen Stellantis do this before?
- 5:22Is this something that you recommend people to take advantage of?
- 5:25Adrian Gonzalez: So last time I saw employee pricing, true. Employee pricing.
- 5:29Not fake employee pricing. True employee pricing that is helped from the manufacturer, and then we can also participate on.
- 5:35They ran it for one month, and I hadn't seen it ever again in like three, two years.
- 5:40I think it's been two and a half years.
- 5:42Adriana: Wow.
- 5:43Adrian Gonzalez: So the fact that they did this, guys, this is insane.
- 5:45This is awesome. I love it. This is going to be great.
- 5:48I have great... That's why I want to get the message out.
- 5:50We decided to do a special podcast about it, and this is going to be great, guys.
- 5:55So again, these are just some of them. Now let's go into some of the important ones, right?
- 5:59Some of the important ones are going to be your lease programs.
- 6:04And then I'm going to be going, so make sure that you pause the video.
- 6:07I'm going to be going over on how you're going to be able to get to these.
- 6:10It's going to be Adrian The Car Guy, the most transparent way of doing a lease.
- 6:17Adriana: Start off with the Pacificas. People want to know a family, a good family.
- 6:21Adrian Gonzalez: Everybody wants to know about Pacificas.
- 6:23Adriana: What? You have one in our showroom.
- 6:25Adrian Gonzalez: Do I?
- 6:26Adriana: Yes.
- 6:26Adrian Gonzalez: Who made that decision?
- 6:28Adriana: Probably you.
- 6:28Adrian Gonzalez: Oh, that's right. Okay. All right. I don't have the Pacifica list.
- 6:32So okay, we're going to start off. We're going to start.
- 6:35There you go. All right. We're going to start off with a 2026 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
- 6:414x4 MSRP of $58,465,
- 6:4610,000 miles a year, 42 months.
- 6:49Adriana: Okay.
- 6:50Adrian Gonzalez: Okay. How much is due at signing? With the select inventory cash, also, that's the one thing that we didn't mention.
- 6:55Select inventory cash. Some of our vehicles have select inventory, which is an additional $1,500 depending on the vehicle on top of
- 7:01employee pricing. Whatever I or in top of employee pricing.
- 7:05With the select inventory, okay, you're going to be looking at a total due at signing of $2,999.
- 7:13That's the only thing you have to bring to the table.
- 7:14That includes your first payment, that includes everything, due at signing.
- 7:17Your payment ends up coming out to $619. This right here is going to be the most transparent lease that you'll ever
- 7:24get. It's going over every single number. And then just make sure you put it in the comments below.
- 7:28If you guys have any other questions, I'll be more than glad to answer them for you.
- 7:31But it's going to be your due at signing. It's going to be $2,999.
- 7:35Do you have to put that money down to get approved?
- 7:39You don't.
- 7:39Adriana: Nope.
- 7:39Adrian Gonzalez: The payment just goes up.
- 7:41Adriana: Guys, this is, of course, let's disclose, with approved credit.
- 7:44Adrian Gonzalez: With approved credit. This is a $58,000 MSRP vehicle. So just so you guys know,
- 7:49$58,000 MSRP. That's going to be it. So $58,000 MSRP.
- 7:55$600 payment, guys.
- 7:56Adriana: So is there any $500 payments? I get a lot of customers, Adrian, that reach out to you over the phone,
- 8:03over the social media. Hey, I'm looking for a $500 payment.
- 8:07Adrian Gonzalez: You're starting to sound old. Over the social media.
- 8:10Adriana: Yeah.
- 8:11Adrian Gonzalez: Who says that?
- 8:12Adriana: I'm acting like a millennial, not a Gen Z.
- 8:15Adrian Gonzalez: That's like an old person say, did anybody inquire on that on the social media?
- 8:20Adriana: Well, it's because I wanted to say on the social media platforms, I didn't want to just say.
- 8:24I didn't want to just narrow it down to TikTok.
- 8:27I wanted to, because you do get it across all platforms.
- 8:29Adrian Gonzalez: All platforms, that's right. So I'm going to do one better for you.
- 8:32I know you want a $500 payment. We actually got some $400 payments here.
- 8:35Adriana: Oh.
- 8:35Adrian Gonzalez: Okay. All right.
- 8:36Adriana: On what vehicles?
- 8:37Adrian Gonzalez: So we're going to go over right now the 2026 Jeep.
- 8:40Adriana: That's the first I hear this.
- 8:42Adrian Gonzalez: Yeah. 2026 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4x4. 10,000 miles a year.
- 8:4842 months MSRP of $39,995. So after employee pricing,
- 8:54bonus cash, rebates, and everything, your payment is going to be $459 a month.
- 9:00The only thing due at signing is $2,999 due at signing.
- 9:05So only $3,000 down will get you a $400 payment on a $40,000 vehicle at 42 months down.
- 9:1110,000 miles a year, no gimmicks, everything straight up. Anyone qualifies for this.
- 9:16If you have any additional rebates that you qualify for, such as first responder, military, and anything, obviously that would definitely help
- 9:21you out.
- 9:22Adriana: Yeah, that is awesome.
- 9:24Adrian Gonzalez: All right, we can go to the next one, which is going to be: let's just say you don't want a Laredo.
- 9:28Adrian, I don't want a Laredo. I want a Limited.
- 9:30I want the top of the top, top of the line Cherokee.
- 9:32Adriana: Top of the line stuff. What's the payment? $600?
- 9:35Adrian Gonzalez: Let's go ahead and go to 2026 Jeep Cherokee Limited.
- 9:40Okay, it's gonna be a $42,000 MSRP. Okay, 42 months,
- 9:4510,000 miles a year. Total due at signing is $2,999.
- 9:49Your payment is only $489. So that's gonna be your top of the line, Cherokee.
- 9:53Only a couple dollars more. No more due at signing.
- 9:56Guys, that's a very reasonable signing. If you really think about it, that's your taxes, guys.
- 10:00A lot of people finance taxes and then they're in a negative equity position.
- 10:04All you got to put is just your taxes down.
- 10:06That's it. And that is already including fees. That's already including first payment,
- 10:11anything, nothing. When I say due at signing that means your total down payment.
- 10:15There is no additional down payment that comes after this.
- 10:18That is it. No more. That's all you get. So there's not going to be no surprises.
- 10:24It's like, no, it's with 10 grand down. No. When I say due at signing please make sure, embed it in your
- 10:28head. Due at signing. That is what you are going to bring to the table.
- 10:31I am not going to ask you for anything more than what's due at signing.
- 10:35Do you have to give that down? No, you do not.
- 10:37You can go zero money down with your first payment only due at signing, and your payment goes up a little bit.
- 10:42You can decide. We can show you the options.
- 10:45Adriana: Now, is there something that Stellantis goes as crazy as having a $300
- 10:51payment?
- 10:52Adrian Gonzalez: So I'm glad you asked. $300 payments, guys. Yes, it is.
- 10:57Adriana: Yes, it is.
- 10:58Adrian Gonzalez: All right.
- 11:01All right. Be ready for the $300 payment. $48,000 MSRP Jeep
- 11:07Wrangler four-door sport.
- 11:09Adriana: Wow.
- 11:10Adrian Gonzalez: 10,000 miles a year, 42 months. Select inventory cash. All your rebates,
- 11:16employee pricing, all of that good stuff. Only $2,999. As due at signing nothing
- 11:23more. We're not going to ask you for nothing more on the table, not plus taxes.
- 11:27That's already, that's it. It's because we do get a lot of comments of people saying, yeah, it's $2,900 due at signing
- 11:33plus taxes. No, when I say the word due at signing embed it in yourself.
- 11:38Adriana: Yeah.
- 11:38Adrian Gonzalez: Due at signing. That's it. When you're signing, that's what it's due.
- 11:41Nothing more. That's it. So let me recap one more time.
- 11:45So it's going to be a 2026 Jeep Wrangler Sport four-door, 10,000 miles a year, 42 months,
- 11:51a 42-month lease. You're $2,999 down, so $3,000 if you want to round it up.
- 11:57Your payment comes out to $369 a month. $48,000 MSRP,
- 12:03guys. So $369 a month, guys. That's crazy, right?
- 12:07Adriana: That is insane.
- 12:08Adrian Gonzalez: That is totally insane. So, guys, that's going to be a really, really good deal there.
- 12:13So
- 12:14then, if you guys want to go up and say, well, Adrian, I don't want a $48,000 Wrangler.
- 12:19I want a $40,000, $54,000.
- 12:23Adriana: I want more packages. I want more luxury.
- 12:26Adrian Gonzalez: $54,000 MSRP 2026 Jeep Wrangler four-door sport with your select inventory cash.
- 12:32Your term is going to be 42 months at $409 a month.
- 12:37The only thing due at signing is going to be $2,999.
- 12:40Again, $409, guys, on a $54,000 rig. Do the math, go to Google.
- 12:46Pull up your income calculator. Pull up what that vehicle will cost you with $3,000 down on a purchase right now.
- 12:52Even if you go extended term, that's insane, guys. Yeah.
- 12:552026 Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab 4x4.
- 13:00Adriana: Everybody's always asking about those. This is on a 26 or 27?
- 13:04Let's just clarify.
- 13:05Adrian Gonzalez: 26.
- 13:06Adriana: Okay.
- 13:06Adrian Gonzalez: 2026 Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab four-door. MSRP of $73,875.
- 13:13For Texas residents, okay, this is going to be Texas residents, you must be a Texan,
- 13:1942 months. Okay, 10,000 miles a year. Payment's gonna be $549.
- 13:24The only thing due at signing is gonna be $2,999, guys.
- 13:29Adriana: Wow, wow. Guys, come take advantage of that.
- 13:31Adrian Gonzalez: That's right. That's right. It's it's it's here. We have it in inventory, guys.
- 13:35We have a we have about five, six of them.
- 13:37Adriana: I think last time we tried to do a lease payment on those RAMs, we were getting like $699.
- 13:43Like we were almost at $700.
- 13:45Adrian Gonzalez: Guys, just do the math: $549 on a $73,000 MSRP with only due at signing is $2,999,
- 13:53guys. There's no tricks, there's no gimmicks, there's no nothing, guys.
- 13:57The only thing you put down is just, I don't even think $3,000 can cover taxes on a $73,000 vehicle.
- 14:03So it's only $3,000 down, guys, you get a $549 payment.
- 14:06That is insane on a 4x4 Laramie with leather. I mean, that's insane,
- 14:11guys.
- 14:11Adriana: That's outstanding. Wow. Hats off to Stellantis. They really are stepping it up and they really are trying to help everybody out.
- 14:19Adrian Gonzalez: Okay, so we talked about the Rubicon. So let's go ahead and go Jeep Gladiator Sport.
- 14:23So, Adrian, what if I don't want a Rubicon? What if I don't want a $58,000 Rubicon?
- 14:27Adriana: Yeah, I don't need it. I don't go. I don't go to.
- 14:29Adrian Gonzalez: You can get a $48,000 Gladiator, which we have plenty of.
- 14:34Okay, so 2026 Jeep Gladiator Sport 4x4, 10,000 miles a year,
- 14:3942 months, okay, with your select inventory, cash, your lease bonus cash, all your rebates,
- 14:44employee pricing, and everything. Your payment comes out to $569 a month with $2,999 due at signing only.
- 14:53So guys, amazing incentives. And just to recap, guys, we're talking about through all our vehicles.
- 14:59We're talking about anywhere between $8,000 discounts from MSRP if you want to go on a purchase, if you don't wish to
- 15:04go on a lease, all the way up to almost $18,000 off MSRP and majority of these vehicles only in November of
- 15:112026 for the crazy Stellantis Jeep event that is going on.
- 15:16So I'm very excited. This is fresh off the press, guys.
- 15:20Okay, these are the actual incentive configurators. This is not my...
- 15:23These are from the manufacturer. You guys are hearing it here first before this gets released anywhere.
- 15:29Adriana: I don't think, guys, you guys gotta remember: like, nobody is doing like nobody is diving into those payments.
- 15:36Adrian Gonzalez: First of all, majority of them don't even know how to work a lease.
- 15:38Adriana: Wow.
- 15:39Adrian Gonzalez: Let's start off there. We're going to get in trouble.
- 15:41I ain't hating. I ain't hating, but I'm just saying they don't call me the lease master for nothing.
- 15:46It is with approved credit. Please make sure that you guys do understand that.
- 15:51In order to get qualified for a lease, another question we get a lot: what score do you need to qualify for
- 15:55lease?
- 15:56Adriana: I've seen anywhere between above the 640 credit.
- 15:59Adrian Gonzalez: I think that's a good, good base point. They don't look too much at score as they do in history.
- 16:03I've seen 700 Beacons get declined on a lease. Because they don't have the history.
- 16:07So 640 established credit and above will get you approved on a lease all day long.
- 16:11And I do have to, unfortunately, because of all the comments that we get on a daily basis, because we do this
- 16:16every day and a lot of people don't do this every day.
- 16:19Guys, this is without any negative equity. If there is negative equity that comes into play,
- 16:27That will affect these payments. These payments are with no trade.
- 16:31So, if you have a $569 payment and you decide to add $10,000 or negative on top of that,
- 16:38that will affect your payment
- 16:40very drastically. So, best way to do it is just come and get this right here with no trade.
- 16:48Adriana: No negative equity, approved credit.
- 16:50Adrian Gonzalez: Does that mean we can't help you? No, that does not mean that we cannot help you.
- 16:53It's just that the payments are not going to be that.
- 16:55Okay. Payments are going to go up. Now, there's still, we'll show you options.
- 16:59Maybe your best route will be going 72 months, 0% on a Cherokee or 60 months,
- 17:050% on a Ram. We'll give you options when you do have negative equity, which is the majority of the crowd right
- 17:10now. We will help you out. $18,000 in total discounts from MSRP will help out.
- 17:16Majority of the people that we do deal with are between $15,000 to $25,000 negative.
- 17:21$18,000 of discounts will definitely lessen the blow when it goes into your new financing.
- 17:25If you wish to do that, please send me a DM So if you're wanting to know these programs,
- 17:31which will be posted on my website, AdrianTheCarGuy.com. Please make sure you guys click the link.

- 19:09let's get the ball rolling.
- 19:12So there's been a crazy, crazy amount of comments in my social media
- 19:20because of a couple of videos that we did. All right.
- 19:23And it was two in particular, but one we can address.
- 19:25So one of the videos, it's multiple clips of me showing.
- 19:28Adriana, how to appraise a car.
- 19:30Adriana: I've seen some of the comments. I didn't want to dive into them too much.
- 19:33Adrian Gonzalez: Okay, well, we're not going to dive into a lot of them, but we're going to dive into one that's extremely important
- 19:36because I have a lot of fun facts for you.
- 19:39So, one of the biggest discussions that we had was going to be:
- 19:44what really makes a tire repairable and non-repairable? And what is a sidewall and what isn't a sidewall?
- 19:51Adriana: So, I just Because the full clip didn't show me showing, I did show where the nail was.
- 19:57I think just that clip just cut off.
- 19:59Adrian Gonzalez: Well, the thing is, is that where it becomes non-repairable and repairable and the sidewall and what's not the sidewall is two
- 20:07different things. So I actually have here, and we'll go ahead and put the graphics here.
- 20:11I have over here the standards on what is considered where a nail is supposed to hit where it would be considered
- 20:17safe to repair. We'll show some graphics on where it shows there that there is a certain line.
- 20:25On the tire where there can be a puncture that could be safe to repair.
- 20:28You can repair the tire wherever you want. It's all about how to repair it in a safely manner where it's not
- 20:34going to cause catastrophic failure in the future because we're a dealership.
- 20:37We're not a tire shop. So basically, you know, a sidewall is the sidewall, but there is about a one or two
- 20:44inch side between each tire where if a nail goes in through there, It is recommended for you to replace a tire.
- 20:51Why? Because it can be repaired, but it can cause failure.
- 20:55If we have an obligation to tell the customer this, at the end of the day, the customer can say, no, Adrian,
- 21:00I don't want to replace my tire. Just repair it.
- 21:02At that point, we made you sign a disclosure. That way, when something does happen in the highway and there's a failure
- 21:08and you get a blowout and then you have an accident and it becomes a bigger issue, we have documentation that states
- 21:13that you no longer, that you did not wish to replace it.
- 21:17You wanted to repair it. But we do have an obligation as a franchise dealer,
- 21:22not a buy here, pay here, as a franchise dealer to let you know what is considered safe for a tire in
- 21:29a tire repair. Am I wrong on that?
- 21:31Adriana: You're not wrong. I mean, I'm coming from the service department.
- 21:34So I automatically, it was on the sidewall. So it is a recommendation for that tire to get replaced.
- 21:42And ultimately, it wasn't just the sidewall why we recommend tire replacement.
- 21:45Those tires were fairly old and they had cracks in between the sidewalls and all throughout the and all throughout that tire.
- 21:53So, what do you have to say on that?
- 21:56Adrian Gonzalez: So, I mean, age has a lot to do with it.
- 21:58Age, you have to replace the tires after a certain amount of age.
- 22:01You know, if there is a nail, You can choose to repair it, but there is some criteria that are recommended in
- 22:08order for
- 22:10the tire to be replaced. And I have the picture here.
- 22:14Adriana: So are they trolling us or are they just?
- 22:17Adrian Gonzalez: I don't think they know.
- 22:18Adriana: Gotcha.
- 22:19Adrian Gonzalez: Yeah.
- 22:20Adriana: So I haven't, like, I saw some of the comments.
- 22:23It's like, it's tread, not thread. Or like, you guys.
- 22:27Adrian Gonzalez: I have an accent, guys. Okay. I have an accent.
- 22:30Adriana: Wait, were they making fun of you or me?
- 22:31Adrian Gonzalez: They're making fun of me because I'm the one who said thread.
- 22:34Adriana: What's the right way to say it?
- 22:36Adrian Gonzalez: Tread, right?
- 22:38Tread. You're supposed to say tread. There's no H.
- 22:41Adriana: Thread.
- 22:42Adrian Gonzalez: Thread is thread.
- 22:43Adriana: Oh, God.
- 22:44Adrian Gonzalez: Tread, tread. Tread. Yeah, that's the right way to say it.
- 22:48So I have an accent. Yeah, we live in South Texas.
- 22:51So we have an unfortunate accent.
- 22:53Adriana: And then the Mexican American over here.
- 22:55Adrian Gonzalez: And then the captions ended up picking up the word thread as well.
- 22:58Oh, so then everybody's going crazy on it. But no big deal.
- 23:02Adriana: Guys, yeah, look at this comment. Tires are a threat now, guys.
- 23:06Typical salesperson, nothing wrong with those tires. I love how she didn't even show the nail.
- 23:10The clip cut off. Go to the go to Adrian The Car Guy on YouTube and you'll see the full clip.
- 23:18So you guys are just hating.
- 23:19Adrian Gonzalez: Yeah, so Adriana's triggered.
- 23:21Adriana: So I'm a little triggered because it's like, no, like everything was there.
- 23:24And I gave my reasoning as to why it would be a tire replacement.
- 23:28And I mean, I get it. Like, I mean, look, I think we should have done a better job at educating and
- 23:33not just point things out.
- 23:34Adrian Gonzalez: So a clip can only, if you guys watch the full episode, you guys will be able to kind of see and
- 23:40understand what. Those clips were from. They were actually me showing Adriana or Adriana kind of doing a test on how to
- 23:46appraise a car and she was pointing some stuff out.
- 23:49So there's only so many things that you can show in a clip.
- 23:51So at the end of the day, if you want to watch the full video, you got to go to the YouTube
- 23:57channel, watch the full 25-minute video where we go. And actually, that video, I think, we're talking about how we were able
- 24:03to give more money than CarMax. But hopefully this was informative.
