Does the car you drive really make a difference to your business? I guess it depends on who you ask.
When I first started, I drove a Mustang 5.0. It was hot! I still recognize the sound of them rumbling down the street.
Warren’s girlfriend, one of my first buyer clients, hated it. She had to sit in the back – he was too tall to smash himself back there – besides he was the client.
Later I traded the Mustang for a more practical 2000 Explorer – AKA the lumbering beast – which I still drive. When drivers ride up on me while I’m maneuvering a tight turn, I shout out to them: This is a truck! It doesn’t grab the turns, it rolls to the outside of them.
During my best year ever, I leased a convertible BMW 325. Another hot car. It really only fit two people but it’s a beautiful machine. A few months ago, I had a listing in a hoity-toity neighborhood. Because the Explorer is more practical, I drive it more frequently. I had met the buyer’s agent several times while driving it. For some reason, she was really rude and condescending to me. It really bugged me. She wore velvet pants and drove a Land Rover. I decided to test her. I pulled up to the property inspection in the Beemer, top down and all. Not so amazingly, she changed her tune.
Well, the beast is running out of time. I’ve been looking around. ![]()
The Charger is really cool, but I need an SUV. I haven’t driven the Durango but that’s a nice looking vehicle too. I think about the hybrids. I have clients who drive them. But I love the sound of flow masters. Can you get those on a hybrid?
