The Kia Telluride is a family SUV with three rows of seats. This one is a hybrid, meaning it uses both a gasoline engine and an electric system to help with fuel economy.

Kia Palisade calligraphy series
The Kia Palisade is a family SUV with three rows of seats. “Calligraphy” is the nicer, more premium version of that model, with upgraded features and a fancier interior.
Self-leveling shocks are car suspension parts that help keep the vehicle from squatting or leaning when you load it up. If they wear out early, the ride can feel off and the car may not sit level.
A vehicle history report is a document that shows important past information about a car using its VIN (vehicle ID number). It can reveal things like accidents or title problems so you’re not buying blind.
A salvage title means the car was considered a total loss after an accident or damage. Even if it’s repaired, it can be riskier to buy because the damage history is more serious.
Concept
vehicle to be totaled
If an insurance company says a car is totaled, it usually means the damage is expensive to fix. Even if the car later gets repaired, it may not be as trustworthy as a car with a clean history.
A rebuilder is the person or shop that buys a damaged car and fixes it so it can be sold again. How well they repair it can vary a lot, so it matters who did the work.
After an insurance company totals a car, it often gets sold at an auction. The person who buys it may repair it in different ways, so quality can vary.
“Cut every corner” means the repair shop is trying to save money by doing things the easy way. On a repaired salvage car, that can lead to problems later because the work may not be thorough.
The Buick Roadmaster is an older, large car made by Buick. It’s the kind of vehicle people remember because it was built to be roomy and comfortable. The podcast brings it up as a classic example from the past.
Bigger tires and wheels usually make the vehicle feel different and can change how it drives. They can help with grip and ground clearance, but they may also change acceleration.
The rear axle ratio is the gearing that determines how the wheels turn relative to the engine or motor. Changing it can make the vehicle go faster, but it can also affect how quickly it accelerates.
The Ford F-150 is a popular full-size pickup truck. Here, the caller says his is a 2016 model, and he likes it so much that it feels “spoiled” every time he drives it.
The Ford Mustang is a sports car. The caller says he previously drove a 2013 Mustang with a 5.0 engine and a six-speed setup, and it reminded him of his truck in how the gears work.
A manual transmission means you shift gears yourself. It usually requires a clutch pedal, which is why the caller says it has one more pedal than the automatic.
The Ford Maverick is a smaller pickup truck. It’s meant to be easier to drive and park than big trucks, while still giving you a truck bed for hauling. People bring it up because it’s a practical option if you want pickup capability without going “full-size.”
A tariff is a tax placed on imported goods, and a “tariff situation” refers to how those taxes change costs and supply chains. The host is saying GM’s Mexico-built trucks have been affected by tariff-related uncertainty.
NAFTA was a trade agreement between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. The host is saying the rules around it were uncertain, which can affect how companies build and ship cars and trucks.
An oil change is when you replace the engine’s oil. It helps keep the engine running smoothly, and the speaker says they do it about every 5,000 miles.
Brakes are what help the truck slow down and stop. The speaker says they’ve replaced the brakes multiple times, which is normal wear on a heavily used vehicle.
“3.5” means a 3.5-liter engine. In this discussion it’s the smaller turbo option, and the speaker suggests you wouldn’t regret switching from the bigger 5.0.
The Ford Expedition is a large SUV with three rows of seats. It’s designed for families or anyone who needs lots of space for passengers and gear. The podcast brings it up because the host bought a newer one to replace an older Expedition.
A turbo is a device that uses the engine’s exhaust to spin a fan that pushes extra air into the engine. It can boost power, but it can wear out over time and may need rebuilding.

It's time for the CarPro Show, where you always get straight talk and honest answers
about everything automotive from Jerry Reynolds, the CarPro, two-time winner of USA Today's
Dieter of the Year, six-time winner of the Texas Auto Riders Association Award for Best
Radio Show in Texas, and a member of the Texas Radio Hall of Fame.
Todd Chambliss is Jerry's co-host.
He's a noted voiceover guy and a celebrated Tibetan throat singer.
So get ready to either call in with your question for Jerry or a song request for Todd on the
CarPro Show.
Thank you very much for being with us today here on the CarPro Show.
We're giving you straight talk and honest answers about everything automotive.
We're talking about F-150s and 250s and 350s because that is our question of the week.
We're going to run down the entire lineup of the top 10 vehicles sold in America, and
first on the list, as always, the F-150.
So next week we'll talk about the Chevy Silverado, so if all you Chevy fans have been chomping
at the bit listening to stories about F-150s, then you will get your time next week, and
I will want to talk to you.
So if you are wanting some car advice on what's the best thing for you to do, what to drive,
whether you buy, whether you lease, whatever you want, the phone number here is 800-926-7777.
And I've also got my co-host Todd Chambliss in studio.
He got a new Toyota ride yesterday.
I sure did.
Yeah, I got a new 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid.
It all started, I mean, I've been looking at it for a while, and honestly, no, I wanted
to get a hybrid in the next vehicle, but this one kind of snuck up on me.
Really didn't expect it to be so quickly, but I'm glad I did it because I just went
there for a regular maintenance visit and started looking around, and then the appraisal
happens for your vehicle and pretty soon you're caught up in a whirlwind of, all right, what
color do you want?
And you wake up one day and say, holy cow, am I really doing this?
But I'm thrilled.
I got a lease.
I got the hybrid.
I got the color.
I wanted very happy.
Well, good.
I know you will enjoy it.
I certainly will.
Thanks to you and the folks over at the Huffines Kia Corinth and Robert Goodwin, all the staff
there did a great job.
Yeah, they're good folks.
Good folks.
Let's go to Sacramento, California and talk to Chris.
Chris, welcome.
Good morning, Jerry.
How are you today?
Hey, doing good, my friend.
What can I help you with?
Yeah, my wife and I are looking to purchase, this one you guys just brought up to tell
you right.
We're looking at the sister vehicle, the Kia Palisade calligraphy series.
We're going to buy a private party.
We just test row one and I have some concerns.
It had some road noise going through the parking lot of a grocery store with speed bumps and
I did some investigating.
Apparently there's self leveling shocks in the back that fail early.
Have you heard anything of this?
No, I haven't, but any human that's trying to keep up with all the little problems with
thousands of cars out there is not telling you the truth if they say yes.
But I can tell you the Palisade has been a very good vehicle overall.
It's been one that everybody loves.
People, you know, I mean, it's been a real hit.
It's one of the hottest selling SUVs that ever came out.
Yeah, and that that would be something that you would even stand behind if they had like,
let's say, 40 or 50,000 on it.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Why are you buying from a private seller?
Well, we're kind of in a we're kind of in a sticky wiki.
Basically, we had to we had some medical issues come on.
My wife just made it through cancer.
So we actually had to do a second on the house for financial reasons.
But we're going to take 20,000 of that to to purchase a vehicle.
We just have more buying power, private party.
And so again, we're just we're right now.
We've got a Yukon XL and then we've got a Nissan Ultima.
They're both paid off.
But my kids are, you know, six foot 26 foot three.
So well, no, no, no, the risk of buying from a private seller
and be really careful.
Be sure you look at a history report.
You know, be sure the person is legitimate.
I mean, if what year model is the one you're looking at?
So right now we're looking at a 21 calligraphy with 50,000 on it.
And what are they asking for it?
Night night team with a salvage title.
Oh, it's OK.
All right.
I was going to say you mentioned 20,000 a minute ago.
I was going to tell you something is wrong.
Yeah. Yeah.
No, and I know it's not our ideal situation.
But at the same time, we're kind of that's just right.
OK. And look, you you you're an adult, you know what you're doing.
I will just tell you that when a insurance company deems a vehicle to be totaled
and then they go to the auction and the rebuilder like who you're dealing with
buys one.
They cut every corner that they possibly can repairing it.
Yeah.
And you're going to put your family on that.
I mean, it's not something we're going to do right this second.
And we're we're perfectly walking through this.
Like I said, we're in a nuanced situation in our life and my life just made it through
chemo. So we're kind of trying to celebrate that.
But at the same time, we're lower lower your standards on what you want.
Get something older that hasn't been, you know, taped back together.
You're you're you're putting your family in this thing.
If there's another wreck and this thing is compromised,
I don't want to tell you what could happen.
Just put some thought into it.
I appreciate that.
I'm going to take receive that, you know, like I said,
we're not going to make any rash decisions because the next day or two are weaker.
So let me ask you something that's the most important.
How's how's the outlook for your wife?
Oh, thanks God.
She's doing good.
Good.
Yeah.
She's doing good.
She can't do this.
She probably does a lot easier than I did.
Yeah.
Well, I'm glad I'm tickled to death.
Tell her she's in my prayers and you guys take care.
Make a good make car decision.
I don't think that is.
But I'm not going to preach to you.
No, I appreciate it.
Okay, pal.
All right, you take care.
All right.
Wow.
Tough call.
Yeah, it really was tough call.
Glad to see that she is doing better.
You know, at the end of the day.
That's all that matters.
Does anything else really matter?
Yeah, absolutely.
No, it doesn't.
You want the best for folks like that.
They're going through that though.
And then I'm glad that you gave him something to think about.
There you go.
Our newsletter will be out next Friday.
As always, we had one come out yesterday and it was a good one.
Lots of information.
If you want to see yesterday's all you got to do
is subscribe today and you'll get yesterday's in your inbox.
Next Friday, you're going to get my brand new song.
They came for the soccer.
It is the car pro show with the car pro Jerry Reynolds and me,
the old roadmaster, Todd Chambliss.
Now, if you've ever heard people say, well, there's no new cars out there
worth getting that are below or rather that are, you know, as cheap as $15,000.
Well, I have a car for you.
It's kind of a car.
It is under $15,000.
Cars loose interpretation.
It is.
It's a new fiat.
It's a fiat.
It's sort of like a golf card.
EV combination.
Yeah.
That's fair.
$13,995 MSRP sounding good.
I think two infants can fit into it because it's rather small.
Certainly a man like me, it's going to be tougher to be comfortable in there.
And it's all electric.
It's all electric.
So you say, oh, it's probably got like a lot of zip, drive and probably goes fast,
right?
No, the top speed around 25 miles an hour.
So probably not going to be something you want to get on the highway.
It's probably downhill too.
With a good wind.
And it's probably something if you live in a community where they let golf carts
be the deal, it might be a good choice for that.
But other than that, no, and it looks like a, like a June bug or something.
It's just a big, squashy looking vehicle.
That's it.
And you've, you mentioned the other show where you live.
You've got a home.
You've got a golf cart.
Yeah, I do.
And this wouldn't be something you want because you've already got yours.
But you've, you've kind of souped yours up a little bit.
Oh yeah.
I lifted it.
It's got big tires and wheels and a crown.
I love that.
It's got a fantastic sound system.
Oh, I bet.
It's got a backup camera.
That's fancy for a golf cart though.
It kind of is.
Yeah.
And I, I changed out the rear, the rear axle ratio.
Oh, did you now?
So it would run faster.
Yeah, it'll do, it'll do a 40.
You ever raced that thing?
Open it up a little bit.
Oh yeah.
That's great.
Oh, it's a blast.
Oh, I bet that's fun.
Kent, Caineswood, Texas.
Thank you for holding Kent.
What's on your mind today?
Good afternoon, Jerry.
And hello to Todd and the rest of your crew.
Thank you.
You were, yeah, you guys do a good job, I tell you.
Thank you, sir.
I'm just, I only called up to let you know that I am an F-150 driver.
And every time I get in that truck, I feel spoiled.
What year?
It's a 2016 and it's got the 3.5 EcoBoost.
In it with the six-speed automatic transmission.
And I got into it.
I trained it in a 2013 Mustang with the 5.0 and six-speed transmission.
That had the same number of gears, but it had one more pedal on it.
Manual transmission.
How about that?
But, and I thought, I thought I was going to miss those other two cylinders.
But the 3.5 will do exactly what I wanted to do.
Yeah.
I mean, you're running, you're running 380 horses or right about that.
And the acceleration is just instant.
I mean, that's an opinion to the seat.
It will.
And my wife grabs ahold of something when I do that.
So I learned not to do that very often.
How many miles you got on it, Kent?
I've got 155 on it.
And it is a wonderful one.
I've beat it up a little bit, but I've taken care of it.
And you mentioned earlier in the show that maintenance is a big thing.
And you're absolutely right.
Mobile one goes into this thing every 7,500 miles.
So I am really, really pleased with it.
I'm hoping I can find another two, the 3.5 with the EcoBoost for my wife,
but she's currently driving an escape, Ford Escape.
Yeah.
And they don't put, they don't put that motor in those cars.
I don't.
No, no, they don't.
When we, when we went to test drive this car, we, this truck, we saw two of them.
The first one we got in and she didn't really say anything.
The second one we got in, the one I bought, she sat in and she said, oh, this is luxurious.
I looked at the salesman and I said, I looked at the salesman and said, check please.
Oh Kent, thank you very much for sharing your story.
I appreciate you and congratulations, man.
Doing the maintenance, you got 150,000 on that.
Probably go another 150,000 if you want it to.
I appreciate you, my friend.

Call him on the chase.com car pro listener line at 1-800-926-7777.
Next up is George in San Antonio.
George, welcome.
Good to have you, pal.
What can I help you with?
Thank you very much.
Just a couple statements.
I do work over in Mexico and of course, I end up buying a Ford Maverick and they actually
come out of the old Ford Mazda plant which is in Hermosillo in the state of Sonora.
But coming back, there's actually a corridor that runs from Moreto touches
straight down through the center of Mexico.
I do work over there right out of León Guanacuato and there's a
the General Motors plant and one of the trips coming back up.
I was in a line of traffic about 12 kilometers going through an X-ray machine and there's
two trailers pulling GMC Denali's pickups that are made there and also they have what
they call it the Silverado.
They call it a Texas edition when it really ought to say a Mexican edition.
Yeah, GM's got a plant in Soleo and that's in I never say it right.
Guanacuato, Guanacuato.
I do work, it's between there and Guanacuato, Guanacuato closer to the airport.
Yeah, they make the Silverado and the GMC 1500 there which has been an issue for GM
because of the tariff situation and now because of the North American Free Trade Agreement.
And that's up in the air.
NAFTA's up in the air.
So I don't know what's going to happen with that.
We're just going to have to watch it and see where it goes from here.
But yeah, I hear you.
You'll see and if anybody's wondering,
in the newsletter yesterday I had the article I wrote about your VIN.
Everything your VIN can tell you.
If the first number in your VIN is a three, it came out, your car was made in Mexico.
Interesting, okay.
Yeah, if the first number's a three, it was made in Mexico.
If it's a two, it was made in Canada.
And if it's a one or four or five, it was made in the United States.
Interesting stuff, I like that.
Well, it could come in handy later, especially with the tariffs.
Whether you're buying the lowest price car are the most expensive luxury vehicle.

Welcome back to the CarPro show with Jerry Reynolds, the CarPro in the newsletter this week.
Sorry, it is the most clicked item of the week.
The JD Powers index as far as the most American-made vehicles in the best way.
Am I mixing up two things here?
I think I just did.
No, that was the article.
I mixed them together.
Are you sure?
Because I'm good at doing that.
No, it's the most American-made cars and of those which ones are the best buys.
Right, okay, gotcha.
And Tesla, G.
You didn't screw up one thing.
Which one did I screw up?
It's a common one.
Oh, is it?
Yes.
Which was what?
It's not JD Powers.
It's JD Power.
It's like the whole day like saving time versus savings time.
Okay, yeah.
Well, at least I'm not the only one doing it.
No, definitely not.
Okay, that's good.
You're okay.
First time I've heard that today.
But that's all right.
Let's go to Lubbock.
Talk to Alan listening on KFYO.
Hello, Alan.
Hey guys, how are y'all doing?
You sure good to listen to y'all all the time.
And I sure appreciate all y'all do for everybody.
Well, you're very kind, Alan.
Thank you.
I have so enjoyed being on KFYO.
I love that station.
I just think they just do a great job.
Well, I think they do a great job also.
You know, I'm there every Thursday morning at 7.35.
Yeah, I listen to you on Thursday mornings also.
Good, good, good, good.
Really?
All right.
I own a construction company and a roofing company.
And I've got a 2014 Ford F-150 with a 5.0.
And that thing's got more dents in it than there's usually the road around me.
And it's got the front end bumpers, got a ding in the front.
But everything, I get the oil change to every 5,000 miles.
And I've got, it's coming right up on 244,000 miles right now.
Wow, wow.
Yeah.
The only thing I've ever done is put, I put three sets of brakes on it
and three sets of tires is all I've ever done to it, except for the oil change.
Yeah, that 5.0 has been a good engine.
I don't know.
I'm wondering, we talked about this on the Dallas show this morning.
I'm wondering how long Ford will continue to build the 5.0 and put it in the pickup.
I mean, it's the majority of sales.
And I mean, a high majority, 90% all, is the EcoBoost engines.
And, but, you know, they've, it's been so good for so long,
I think they're hesitant to walk away from it.
Man, I would buy another one.
And I, yeah, and you may be able to, they may just keep, keep chucking them out.
I don't know.
But if you ever had to go to the 3.5, I don't think you'd regret it.
I mean, it's, it's not uncommon to see, you know,
250, 275, 300,000 miles on that EcoBoost and it gets better fuel economy and
it's got more horsepower and towing power.
But I'm not suggesting in any way that you, you know, trade it or anything like that.
I'm just saying the next time.
I'm not planning on that for a while anyway.
Well, you use your truck.
I mean, to get, to get that kind of mileage out of a truck that you use every day.
I mean, all gone.
I wouldn't trade either.
Hey, Alan, I appreciate you.
I appreciate you listening there and love it.
Please always let me know if I can do anything for you, my friend.
I appreciate you.
And next up, we'll go to West Lynn, Oregon to George.
George, what's going on?
Thank you for taking my call, Jerry.
You bet.
Good to have you.
We recently bought a 2024 Ford Expedition to replace an Expedition that we have.
And we noticed when we were shopping, I kept looking at car packs and these used vehicles
that are one or two years old seem to bounce around the country really easily from the vehicle we
bought was from New Brunswick, Canada.
It was titled down in the Southwest and we bought it in Milwaukee, which is next door
to where we live at a Mitsubishi dealer with 10,000 miles on it.
So my question is, how does that whole used car market operate?
Well, yeah, that's a great question, George.
And the truth is the auctions and the biggest auction in the country is the Mannheim auction.
I don't know.
I don't know how many auctions they actually have, but they're all over the country.
I mean, there may be a hundred of them.
But when when COVID came in 2020 and people couldn't be close to each other,
you know, everybody's wearing masks and you got to distance yourself by five feet and all those
things, the auctions made a quick maneuver to put the auctions online so people can dealers
can sit in their offices and buy cars from all over the country.
And that opened up instead of regional auctions, that opened up a whole big bunch
of different cars that dealers could get and ship in.
You can get a car cross country nowadays, even with gas prices high,
from one coast to the other for under $1,000 if you know what you're doing.
And the auctions have got they they work with transport companies.
So a Mitsubishi dealer in Oregon could easily buy any car he wants in Florida.
And if the prices right online, get it shipped into Oregon for under $1,000.
And it's just made the used car market so much more mobile than it used to be.
And I got to tell you, it's been good.
It's been good for consumers because it keeps the market up, keeps trading prices up,
because now instead of dealers in Dallas just watching the Dallas auction live,
now they're watching the auction in Pittsburgh and in Washington D.C. and all across the country.
So they can go online today and see all the cars that are going to be available next week
and pick and choose what they need for their inventory.
It's really it's it's really kind of fascinating.
I watch the auction here in Dallas every Wednesday from, no, it starts at 9 30.
And I usually watch it usually not over till 12 or 12 30.
And I do that so I can get a feel for the market.
So when people call me and they want to talk about trading cars,
I can tell them the market's good or it's not been good.
But when we go back and we look at the reason that used cars have been so high since COVID,
this is one of the reasons and it's because the auctions are now
so easily attainable by everybody, every dealer in the country.
So I hope I hope that gives you a little bit of insight into how you ended up with an expedition
that's, you know, came way far away from you.
I do appreciate the call very, very much.
Yeah, it's it's it's big business.
I can't believe it's gone this long, too, as far as the values holding up like that.
Oh, well, and it's part of it is that.
Yeah.
If you wonder whether an electric car is right for you, talk to the car pro about it.

and what's a good rate right now.
You might you probably know APR stands for annual percentage rate.
And it's the real cost of what your car loan is going to be the true cost of it.
But you might not be really up on what a good rate is right now.
And there's some data in there that Jerry shares that you might want to go and check out
if you're looking for maybe a new car loan that might be worthy reading before you do so.
Yes, it is.
And my closing message in the newsletter last week was titled The Little Things.
And I hope that you took them on.
It's the very bottom of the newsletter under Todd's losing video.
Did I say that?
Losing?
Well, it was better than last week.
I mean, at least give me credit for that.
But yeah, I was losing them.
Yeah.
In the big scheme of things.
Actually yours was very good.
I liked it too.
Mine was crazy.
Oh, that was nuts.
Yeah.
And only 26 seconds.
But a lot happens in that amount of time.
Yeah.
And that's the that's.

David in Austin, Texas.
Welcome, David.
Welcome to the show.
Thank you.
So my question for you, basically, I think you answered it with Alan earlier.
My 2015 F-150 with an eco turbo boost should last 250, 275,000 miles.
Yeah.
We're just normal maintenance.
Do you have a 27 or a 35
27
Okay.
That's been a good one too.
I like the power of the 35
They just they just had to rebuild the turbo.
And I'm wondering if there's anything else that needs to be done to it.
At what mileage did the turbo go out?
196,000.
No, I mean, I don't know of anything else you need to do do to it.
And that's, I mean, getting almost 200,000 miles out of a turbo.
That's pretty normal.
I've seen them go a lot further.
But, you know, there's other factors involved, prior maintenance and believe it or not,
temperature, how hot it is, where you are, certain states turbos do better than other
states in Texas.
Of course, we get our hot weather this time of year.
So that may have had, but still 200,000 miles without, and that's the only problem that you've
had.
That's pretty darn good.
Well, I was looking at trading into a new 2026, but then they only offered me $2,000
for the truck.
And I was like, nah, I'll sit on it.
Well, it's worth more than that unless it's just beat the hell.
I've got I've got real good connections with the covert in Hutto.
Let them take a look at it.
That trucks any kind of truck now, even with 200,000 miles, 10 years old,
any kind of truck now is worth five grand or more.
Talk to my friends there.
And how about another happy listener story?
I always like to read these please this time.
David, of course, he is in the Austin area with the city limits Subaru.
Jeff Allen is your contact there.
That's correct.
Says professionalism and accommodating approach evident from our first encounter.
May the car buying experience pleasant and enjoyable.
Not only a great car pro manager and sales associate.
He's super friendly and awesome.
Enjoy talking to him and went beyond, you know, above and beyond from the start of
our test drive to the final delivery and pickup.
Apparently Jeff stayed late that night, traveled to another dealership,
some distance away to pick up the Subaru.
He drove it back to the dealership.
They had it that night and he said highly recommend city limits Subaru.
You're looking to buy a Subaru in the Austin area and the Buda area as well.
That is the guy you need to call that is Jeff Allen.
They do a great job there.
They really do.
If you we played my new song, they came for the soccer in the last hour of the show.
And if you did not get an opportunity to hear it, I had great feedback on this one.
Almost immediately when you.
Oh my goodness.
It was a follow up to one I did a few weeks ago.
It was titled, Why Can't Everybody See It?
The premise behind it was we have all these people coming to America for the World Cup.
And, you know, they've been they've been tainted by their own media in their own country about
what a horrible place this is.
Oh, it's terrible there.
Yeah, everybody's greedy and unfriendly and they get here,
especially the ones that came to the Dallas, Fort Worth area.
They get here and they find out it's not like that at all.
Oh, absolutely.
So the first song was, Why Can't Everybody See It?
Which is seeing our country through their eyes.
And then this one was titled, They Came Here for the Soccer.
That will be in next week's free newsletter.
If you subscribe today, you'll get it.
It's better to be good than look good when it comes to your next vehicle.

About this episode
Weekly sales and ownership talk kicks off with Todd’s new 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid and a question about Ford F-150, F-250, and F-350 sales. Callers swap shopping stories—one weighing a Kia Palisade Calligraphy and others debating private-party risk, salvage titles, and why history reports matter. The show then shifts into used-car market mechanics (Mannheim auctions, online bidding since 2020) and practical buying guidance, plus low-speed EV and golf-cart modification segments.
