Employee pricing is a special discount that employees get. It’s often much cheaper than what regular customers pay, and it can force other brands to offer better deals too.
Ford is the car brand being discussed. They’re described as offering a special employee-style discount that pushed other brands to offer better deals too.
Term
aluminum fire
They’re talking about a disruption involving aluminum that reduced how many trucks could be built. When supply drops, it can change what deals manufacturers and dealers are willing to offer.
A buyers market means it’s easier for you to get a good deal because sellers have to compete for your business. You’ll often see more discounts and incentives.
The Chevrolet Silverado is a large pickup truck made for towing and carrying things. People talk about it a lot because dealerships sometimes offer big discounts. That’s why it may come up when discussing current truck deals.
The Toyota Tundra is a big truck designed for towing and carrying. It’s the kind of vehicle people consider when they want a full-size pickup. It may be mentioned because there are often incentives that lower the purchase price.
The BMW 430i Grand Coupe is a BMW that looks like a sporty coupe but is built to be more usable day-to-day. The “430i” usually means it has a turbocharged engine that’s meant to feel quick without being overly harsh.
The Lexus IS 350 F Sport is a sportier version of the Lexus IS sedan. It usually comes with a stronger-feeling V6 engine and a suspension/setup meant to feel more responsive than the standard model.
The “IS” here is a Lexus compact luxury sedan. The podcast specifically mentions an IS 500 F Sport Performance Premium, which is a higher-performance version. It’s brought up because someone who owned one liked it a lot.
Resale value is what the car is likely worth later when you try to sell it. If a car holds its value well, leasing it often costs less because the company expects to recover more money when the lease ends.
BYD is a car company from China that makes electric vehicles. The discussion is using BYD to point out that electric cars from more than just Tesla are becoming common.
The Chevrolet Suburban is a big, family-friendly SUV. It’s built to fit lots of people and gear, and it’s commonly compared to other large SUVs like the Ford Expedition.
The Ford Expedition is a large SUV meant for families and hauling. It’s often compared to the Chevrolet Suburban when someone wants a big, practical vehicle.
A 6.2-liter engine is a big V8-style engine size (it’s measured by how much space the cylinders take up). The host is explaining that this engine has had some problems, but he argues the number of failures is small compared to how many vehicles use it.
Concept
failure rate vs. percentage of failures
The host is basically saying: don’t just look at how many failures you hear about—look at the percentage compared to how many engines are out there. That’s how you judge whether something is truly widespread.
The Toyota Crown Signia is a newer Toyota model with a more upscale, stylish look. In this segment, the host is basically saying it’s a good-looking car worth checking out.
The Toyota Crown is a more upscale Toyota sedan, meaning it’s built to feel more comfortable and premium than basic models. The podcast mentions the Crown Signia, which is a specific version. It likely comes up because someone reviewed it and talked about what it’s like to drive and live with.
Term
8 dollars a gallon
Rental companies often charge a high price for fuel if you don’t bring the car back with the right amount. The host mentions the per-gallon cost to show why the renter refilled.
Gasoline and diesel are not interchangeable. If you put diesel into a car that needs gasoline, it can mess up the engine and lead to a costly bill—so having the receipt matters.
Regular unleaded is a common gasoline grade used in many vehicles, typically with a lower octane rating than premium. In the segment, the host emphasizes that the receipt showed the exact fuel grade, which helped prevent a dispute.
A receipt is proof of what you bought. The host is saying that if something goes wrong—like bad fuel—having the receipt can help you explain and back up your story.
This means diesel fuel that’s contaminated or not right. If it causes problems, having proof of where and what you bought can help you sort out responsibility.
This is a Lexus SUV. The point here is that the host thinks it’s the safer long-term pick—something that should need fewer expensive repairs as the miles add up.
A tire repair kit is a temporary fix for a flat. The host says it’s not the same as having a spare tire, and it might not work if the damage is too bad.
A sidewall puncture means the hole is on the tire’s side. Those flats are often too risky to fix with a quick kit, so you may need roadside help instead.
Roadside assistance is the help you call when your car has a problem you can’t safely handle yourself. The host is saying to call them for a serious flat instead of trusting a quick repair kit.
A clear title means the car’s paperwork is clean and legal to transfer to a new owner. It usually makes the sale smoother and less risky for the buyer.
Consignment is when you don’t sell the car directly yourself. You give it to a place that lists it and tries to sell it, and they take a cut after it sells.
An instant bid is a quick offer price right away. It’s convenient, but it may not be the best price compared to selling the car through a listing.

Okay, so you brought me this stat, T-Mobile customers had the lowest wireless bills versus
Verizon and AT&T over the past five years.
That seems surprising.
Surprising but true, which honestly is what people need right now.
Affordable wireless service isn't a perk.
It's a difference.
This is on HarrisX Billing Snapshots from Q321 and Q425 compared to average AT&T and
Verizon bills.

Welcome to The CarPro Show.
Jerry Reynolds, The CarPro, was in the auto industry for over 35 years.
And in addition to getting his sixth win from the Texas Auto Writers Association for best
radio show in Texas, he's a member of the Texas Radio Hall of Fame.
Along with fellow members, Dan Rather and George Carlin.
His co-host, Todd Chambliss, just became a member of Applebee's Hall of Fame for finishing
off 84 check-in nuggets without using a dipping sauce.
Now let's get to straight talk and honest answers about everything automotive on The
CarPro Show.
We appreciate you being with us today.
It means the world to us on this Mother's Day weekend.
And if you're a mother, we say happy Mother's Day to you.
Thank you for all you do.
We had a beautiful tribute to moms yesterday in the free weekly newsletter that came out.
And if you're not a newsletter subscriber and you're a mom, I would love for you to
see that because it was a video that I put with it that was just wonderful about moms.
So I would love for you to be able to see that.
And maybe if you're not a subscriber and your mom is still with us and you want to send
that to her, it might be a nice present for her.
All you got to do is go to our website, carpro.com and at the bottom of the page, sign up for
the newsletter.
Yesterday's comes in your inbox immediately and you can follow along with the things we're
going to talk about today on The CarPro Show when it comes to the newsletter and what you
guys loved out of it.
The most click things are always a fun thing for me because typically I can predict what's
going to be the most clicked on item there and sometimes you guys surprised me like you
did this week.
And we'll talk about that here in just a minute.
The phone number here in studio live in the retailmyride.com studios in downtown Dallas,
Texas is 800-926-7777, the chase.com carpro hotline 800-926-7777.
We have a question of the day every week this week and I know from, we're on the air for
two hours in Dallas before we come here and I know from the Dallas show we'll get some
interesting responses for this.
So give this some thought.
What's the one thing you wish car dealerships would stop doing?
The one thing you wish car dealerships would stop doing?
I want to hear from you 800-926-7777 if you want to take advantage of the amazing incentives
that are out there right now and they are amazing.
Ford came out with employee pricing that hit us last week just before the day before we
came on the air and shocked the world including me.
I didn't see that coming because they're really short in supply on pickups because of an aluminum
fire.
But they came out with employee pricing across the board on dog gone near everything and
so the other manufacturers had to up their game on incentives to offset what Ford is
doing.
It's a buyers market right now.
So if you're thinking about making a move or if you're not, if it's even crossed your
mind let's talk 800-926-7777.
Todd Chambliss, the old road master.
And glad to be here this weekend.
As you mentioned, happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.
And if your mom is still around make sure that you show her some love and treat her
very special for Mother's Day.
And also as you mentioned the amazing deals out there because Ford kind of threw down
the gauntlet and they said all right we're going to do this, what are you going to do?
And we can't speak, certainly can't speak for the rest of the country, but there's
some Chevrolet for example, some amazing incentives they're offering.
I think on, was it the Silverado?
Like up to $16,000 this is at a Texas dealership.
And I'm sure that there are some copper ones all over the place if you're looking for a
deal.
The trade values are high, the incentives are out there and this is just a great time
to go and get yourself, if you were thinking of something a little bit later on may want
to move it up since all the incentives and everything is kind of going your way right
now.
Yeah it is and our Dallas Fort Worth Toyota dealer had some lease specials this morning
that were just outstanding and also for if you're looking for a full-sized truck the
Tundra has got some really nice incentives right now and incentives vary across the country
so you know if you hear us talk about something we're very careful to tell you that that's
in Dallas Fort Worth because the incentives that are here are not necessarily everywhere
but the employee pricing from Ford is everywhere.
800-926-7777 that's the phone number.
If you call now you can get through, if you wait there's a really good chance that will
be the lines will be full but when somebody hangs up or we go to a break that's the time
to call 800-926-7777.
Let's go to line 2 our producer has not put up who I'm talking to so who have I got here?
In the 830 area code who's calling?
Hi.
Could it be?
Jerry?
Yes ma'am.
This is Jamie in Fredericksburg.
Oh.
All right.
Good, good to have you.
Am I on?
Yes you're on the air.
Okay.
All right thank you.
You have been instrumental on our last two car purchases so I would like your pros and
cons on the two vehicles I'm trying to decide between.
First let me say that I'm 85 and I drive less than 10,000 miles per year so definitely
think I'm the least candidate at this point in my life.
You are.
You are.
Okay.
Okay.
Here's what I'm trying to decide between a BMW 430i Grand Coupe and a Lexus IS 350 F Sport.
What say you?
I'd say you are awesome.
Jamie, those are two great cars.
One of them you're driving right now.
I hope at 85 I want one of those two cars too.
That's great.
Are you a mom?
Yes and I'm driving a 430 BMW right now a Grand Coupe and I love it and I've driven it for
eight years and before that I had a five series so I love BMWs but my husband you helped him
several years ago get an a Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance Premium and he is sold so anyway
he's kind of leaning towards a Lexus for me.
I am too.
I am too.
I knew it.
I knew it.
Well considering we're going to lease nothing leases as well as a Lexus and that's because
the resale value is so good.
Do you get my newsletter?
Yes we do.
Okay I reviewed the Lexus IS 350 F Sport that was in yesterday's newsletter so and you're
going to see that I loved it because I did but for a lease and to give your the Lexus
is going to give you a little softer ride and you know that might be a benefit to you.
And I don't have a dealer in San Antonio but I got a great one in Austin and it's at my
website Lexus of Austin Jeff Prey is the general manager he's the guy to talk to and he'll
fix you up on the Lexus.
I appreciate your call Jamie happy Mother's Day.
Your trade could be worth a lot or not.
Find out which by calling Jerry Reynolds the car pro at thechays.com car pro listener
line at 1-800-926-7777.
Welcome back to the car pro show with Jerry Reynolds he's the car pro and I'm Todd Chambliss
this week's classic car of the week on our Facebook page.
Beautiful convertible but classic car back in the day and we're looking for your correct
year make in model of the car.
There's someone commented they said I love this car back in the day but probably don't
want to buy the gas for the 428 probably not make sense to me if you want to go take a
guess at it go to our Facebook page and give us the correct year making model and we'll
get a correct winner from all the correct guesses on Monday.
I've got to apologize to sweet Janie that just called a minute ago.
I lied to her and I didn't mean to Janie the Lexus review is coming up next week.
I've been reviewing it this week in the reviews follow the following week so it's not up there
yet but I will tell you that I loved it.
I'm going to have Amy do it on Monday and so it'll be on the website under car reviews
by Monday morning.
There you go.
Selby is calling believe it or not from Nice France.
Wow.
Selby welcome to the car pro show.
Well good morning guys.
It's 615 or so here in France.
Wow Selby has been emailing me pictures of some of the cars he's been seeing while he's
on his adventure where all have you been.
Well we started in Venice for a week and then took the train to Florence for a week and then
I had a driver and drove us to Nice and we're here until Tuesday morning and we head back
to Sacramento.
Oh you're Sacramento.
I thought you were lived in Los Angeles.
OK.
And you know I thought it'd be interesting because I don't know.
I haven't been overseas in a number of years.
What do you see in Selby as the difference in the cars over there versus what you see
here in the United States.
Well I think they translate your show or your recommendations into French and Italian
because I'm not kidding almost every taxi that we've been in has been a hybrid.
Wow.
And the Toyotas and the Pia's and Hyundai's not many Europeans but the Toyotas are real
big as far as taxis go and the taxi drivers love them.
Well I don't blame them for that and that's one thing I'm learning about our country is
the Uber drivers are all loving them too and the door dashers and you know the Lyft drivers
and that sort of thing.
But I'm going to guess that unlike where you live there in Sacramento you're not seeing
like half the vehicles on the road being pickups.
We saw a couple of Toyota pickups.
We saw some new ones called photons FOTON which I believe are Chinese which we haven't
seen in the U.S. and what they appear to do and you know this is a generalization and I don't
know about statistics and everything but they use sort of smaller vans what we would call
vans covered cars and trucks or covered car trucks to put in what they take to work.
Now out in the country and we were out in the country yesterday we saw a few more pickups
but you don't see a whole lot because the roads are so narrow.
Like I said you couldn't trailer your boat around.
Oh wow.
Make the turn.
I'll be doing these are great drivers here.
We haven't seen an accident.
The stop signs are especially in Italy are sort of suggestions.
So what are you seeing there with electric cars.
Can you tell which ones are electric and are they are they prevalent there.
Well you're seeing a lot of Teslas.
We've seen Teslas a lot of Teslas they use for you don't see Uber but for taxis and private
Teslas but what's kind of interesting is the BYD's and I don't know how it's pronounced
which I asked around and looked up our Chinese.
Yeah Chinese Electrics.
Yeah they're over here and you see them in big well bigger cars but everything's a small car.
I sent you a few pictures of two-seaters side by side two-seaters front and back.
Yeah.
Cars I wouldn't sit in except to go around maybe an amusement park.
Well Selby I got to thank you man.
You're the first call we've ever had from Nice France.
Nice.
And I appreciate you sharing the story and thank you for listening to the show.
I appreciate you more than you know that Selby from Nice France.
Almost everybody thinks they know about cars but the car pro Jerry Reynolds actually does know.
Call the car pro show now on the Chase dot com car pro listener line at 1-800-926-7777.
And the phone number here is 800-926-7777 that's the number that Ryan in Houston called.
Ryan welcome to the car pro show.
Thank you.
So I'm looking between a Chevrolet Suburban and a Ford Expedition.
I really like the Suburban but I do to look on the outside.
I do too.
I'm reviewing the Suburban right this minute as a matter of fact.
I got one sitting downstairs the high country four before completely loaded out fantastic vehicle.
It's got the suspect six point two.
Now I will tell you that there the six point two has been problematic.
It's been overplayed to some degree because when you look at the number of vehicles that
that engine comes in which is Cadillacs GMC's Chevrolets trucks and SUV's including the
heavy duty trucks.
If you look at the population of engines out there and then you look at how many failures
there were no question it's too many failures but as a percentage it's a very small number.
Now I've been watching this closely for quite some time now so far for 2026 and these these
started coming out last summer right.
So we've got a lot of history and again this this engine carries across a lot of different
vehicles so far in 2026 there has been one documented case of a six point two failure
and that could have been a number of different things that could have been the driver of that
particular vehicle that didn't you know didn't change the oil or tried to haul or tow something
that was way too big.
I can tell you with certainty I believe with all my heart they're behind that problem
and if I were personally choosing between a suburban and an expedition I'd go with the
suburban especially after driving this one this week it is a pure joy I've got some really
really good Chevy dealers at my website go there Ryan first and talk to one of them.

welcome back to the car pro show Jerry Reynolds is that car pro i'm the old road master as they
now call me Todd Chambliss i'm gonna embrace that that's gonna be like something i'm gonna be proud
of might as well i mean it's already here i mean it really is i mean you can't do much about it
number one clicked item on the newsletter this week a bit of a surprise i think for me it was
me too i honestly i'm pulling back the curtains i thought that whole tire repair kit replacement
for a spare story was uh one that was gonna be a little bit closer to the top that was in the top
five wasn't the top five but number one a car pro report food stamps and ferraries
what's the deal food stamps and ferraries people drive in exotic cars but they're getting the
food stamps and the first brush you may say there's some corruption there's something going on there
but you bring an interesting perspective to think about well i do i get really irritated
with the media because now all that matters is clicking on you know is the number of clicks
that they get it's all about them i saw a headline yesterday at aol.com okay it said
human remains found near savannah guthrie's home okay that was the headline right
okay so i'm thinking oh no they found her mom right right before mother's day
how sad is that horrible timing yeah when you click on it it says that these are this was an
archaeological find oh for goodness sakes the bones had been there for hundreds of years
but they put out the headline to make me click on that and you did and i did yeah
and i i should know better and so this story that was in so big in the news earlier this week
about people driving up in Mercedes and ferraries and teslas and lamborghini's and they go in to get
their foot and to get and they use food stamps yeah and my my point was this
you've got a you don't know that person's story you don't know this may have been a very high
paid executive that lost their job there could have been a death in the family there could
have been a divorce in the family they may owe too much on that expensive car they may have
financed it for 10 years stupidly but they did it and instead of letting it repossess
they're still driving it but they're they're they're hurting and i know i sound like a softy
i even wrote that in the article maybe i'm becoming a softy but the truth is you don't
know the story you don't know the story don't judge and don't click right right exactly don't
click on this crap no it only it's like cars you'll see some beautiful pictures of the new
El Camino that's coming the El Camino ain't coming back it didn't sell when it was here
i saw a picture on the internet of course you did and you see you see Pontiacs new Pontiacs
that are coming i saw Lincoln town car the other day that was coming that town car ain't coming
back don't fall for it oh man all you're doing is making those idiots money once you get me started
on this i well it was just time to go push your button for once and see how things would go
my video the week was number two Amy Plymouth our executive producer she reviewed the Toyota
Crown Signia that's a fine-looking vehicle it's boy and that red it really is pretty yeah and one
story that everybody needs to read came in number six keep all your receipts when you rent a car
and that's the truth and here's why oh man this was a story about a guy who rented a car
he stopped on his way to drop it off filled the car back up so he wasn't paying eight dollars a
gallon right right because that's what Hertz charges or something stupid like that he fills it up
he takes it back weeks later he gets a 7000 dollar bill from Hertz or whichever
rent car can I said 7000 dollars they said that he put diesel fuel into a gasoline
rental vehicle gosh he had the receipt thank goodness he the receipt showed exactly what
the gas was regular unleaded probably it was regular unleaded yeah and it saved him the hassle
of going through that 7000 dollar deal that they would have sued him over most
likely and most of us if we do that do we keep receipts generally I think I'm gonna speak for
myself and say no of course not one of us does starting today in the earlier show we had a
caller from Chicago that the regular listener emails me all the time and he kept a receipt one
time when he got a bad tank of gas and that receipt came in real happy real handy to prove
that he bought that gas and that he didn't just have an injured problem
gas stations have insurance for this I've had I've had that case come up many times through the
years of bad particularly bad diesel fuel wow so there you go 800 926 77 77 I've got a line open
for you 800 926 77 77 it's rare that we have a line but you can grab it right now like Rick in
league city Texas did in the Houston area Rick welcome thanks for calling hey Jerry hey Todd how
you doing hey we're doing good buddy long-time listener a long-time listener bought several
vehicles from your recommendations for the last 15 years and right now I'm looking to get my wife
a a new vehicle new SUV we've got a bunch of grandkids and I've test drove both the 2026
Lexus TX 500 yeah and the Volvo XC90 the Bravo 6 version the Ultra and wanted to get your thoughts
I read Edmunds reviews on it and I was really surprised they kind of dogged the Volvo I thought
it was a great ride and you know pretty solid made but you know of course Alexis got great reviews
oh sure what's your thoughts on that Jerry you know we hold on to our vehicles for 10 15 years
we do great maintenance on them that was that was important but no after after all things considered
all all the time as long as you keep a car resales not important it doesn't matter 10 years from now
you know but my next question was going to be how long are you going to keep it well thanks
thank you for answering that and and that makes the answer extremely easy go with the Lexus
I like the XC92 but I will tell you Volvo when you get up to around 60 to 70,000 miles
they get very expensive to repair and the repairs happen pretty frequently so the Lexus is bulletproof
it's one of the best SUVs ever made you know the TX 500 I've reviewed it we've reviewed both these
they're both at my website carpro.com if you'll put XC90 or TX 500 in the search box at the top
it'll pull right up but the the XC90 is nice as it is and as wonderful as the interiors are in those
things they're just way more prone to problems than Alexis is if you will see Fred Forsey at
Clearlake Lexus he'll take good care of you on that TX 500 hybrid and you will love the vehicle
thanks for calling you may think you know a lot about cars but you may also think
you can quarter back the Dallas Cowboys get real and get expert advice about the cars
from the car pro show called thechase.com car pro listener line now at 1-800-926-7777
it's on the list of our most clicked items for the newsletter this week which by the way the

pop up ads we won't sell your address all that kind of thing it's a it's worthwhile
rating every single Friday at carpro.com and number four on the list which I thought might
be a little bit higher is the whole if you don't get a spare tire the tire repair kits are they
a real replacement for a spare tire and the answer is absolutely not no they're not a replacement
they'll get you to safety even hopefully but it's not a replacement don't don't
think it is and depending upon what sort of you know what kind of nail injury the
tire took uh you might be able to repair it you might not I mean it may be so severe that it
really won't help you in that situation it's a sidewall puncture at prepare kit don't even get
it out of the the holder it's not going to do any good just call roadside assistance and let
them do it and yeah yeah absolutely and have it towed in that's the way to do janey in spicewood
texas in the houston area welcome janey how can i help you hello hi there i have a
i'm the second owner 19 and i need to sell this truck okay 1990 1998 f 150 long bed bed cover
uh a regular cab i'll say five yeah regular cab uh what else good tires good paint clear title
134 000 miles it's 26 years old so i'd like to sell it as a classic and that 134 i think works
out to about 5000 miles driven per year yeah and that's low low low and how does it look jane
he's a good-looking truck it looks sharp yeah it's a good-looking truck and what you know what
engine beautiful red color what engine it has what kind of you know 600 v8 uh 98 was it easily
could have been the 306 the straight six which was one of the best engines ever made but it could be
could be a 302 v8 could be a 351 doesn't really matter on a 98 model with low miles like that
that looks good the best way to sell that truck janey is to go to my website carpro.com at the
okay once you get there there's two choices you can get an instant bid on it which i don't
recommend in your case because you got a 98 truck that's not their market but the other choice is to
put it on consignment there's a company called retail my ride and they've been with me for a very
long time they do a fantastic job they'll know just where to market that truck they'll put it
online they'll tell you what they think it'll bring and they'll do all the work once it's sold
they'll take a little bit off the top and they'll give you a check for the
balance and that is the way to maximize the dollars you don't have to sell it if they if somebody
comes along they make you an offer and that offer is not acceptable to you you tell them no and
that's that they'll keep looking it's not the fastest way to turn that truck into money but
it's the most effective way to turn that truck into top dollar they do a just amazing job for
my listeners so carpro.com you'll see consignment uh carpro consignment as an option there click on

About this episode
Dealership incentives and pricing take center stage, with hosts noting Ford’s employee pricing shock and a pickup supply crunch tied to an aluminum fire. They stress that offers vary by location, then pivot through listener car-shopping questions—BMW vs Lexus, and Suburban vs Expedition—where resale value and long-term repair costs come up. Practical ownership tips follow: keeping receipts for rental fuel disputes and guidance that tire repair kits aren’t a true spare replacement, especially for sidewall punctures.
