Most people spend more time picking a restaurant than picking the car they'll drive for 5 years. I'm here to fix that.
I help car buyers stop second-guessing and start making decisions they actually feel good about. No dealer games. No analysis paralysis. No waking up six months later wishing you'd bought something else.
What you'll find here: real talk about choosing cars that fit your life, your budget, and your priorities. I break down the mistakes that cost people thousands, the features that actually matter vs. the ones that just sound good on paper, and the buying strategies most people never hear about until it's too late.
I also run Car Match Service, where I personally build you a ranked shortlist of vehicles based on your situation. No dealership bias, no commission, no BS. Just decades of automotive experience working for you instead of against you.

Quick question: Do you know the MAXIMUM car price you can actually afford?
Not what a dealer will approve you for...
Not what "feels" right...
But what financial experts recommend based on YOUR income?
Most people don't. And that's how they end up "car poor."
I built a free calculator that shows you exactly what you can afford using the 20/4/10 rule (20% down, 4-year max loan, 10% of income for payment).
Takes 2 minutes. No email required.

Know your budget BEFORE you shop. Your future self will thank you.

Which Chevy crate engine would YOU choose for your build?
I just dropped a deep-dive video breaking down every major GM crate motor—Small-Block, Big-Block, LS, LT, LSX, even the Connect & Cruise packages.
Which one would you run—and in what build? Let me know in the comments.

📘 New Guide Just Dropped – And This One’s Personal
A few months ago, my wife Amanda came to me with an idea.
She said, "What if we created a guide for people who don't know where to start when buying a car? Not gearheads, not experts—just everyday folks who don't want to get played."
So she sat down and started writing.
What came out of that process is now The Smart Car Shopper’s Playbook—a brutally honest, easy-to-read guide that walks you through everything before you ever set foot on a dealership lot.
I helped shape it, added my best tips from years of experience, and we published it together.
This is the same real-world advice we give friends and family behind the scenes—
💡 How to figure out what you actually need
🕵️♂️ How to avoid getting tricked by dealer “extras”
⏳ The best times to buy (and when to walk away)
💬 What to say, when to stay quiet, and how to negotiate like a pro
It's not another fluff-filled checklist. It's a full-on playbook—and it's only $5.
This was Amanda’s first book—and I'm beyond proud of what we created together. If you're planning to buy a car soon (or even just thinking about it), grab it. It’ll be the best five bucks you spend this year.

Let us know what you think. This one means a lot to us.
