Man, I'm seriously thinking about going shirtless. I have to show, dude,
that's not a joke. No, I have I am too. I'm
thinking shirtless today for the show as we broadcast live from the parking lot of
Carriage Ford, Lewis and Clark Parkway in Indiana. Tom and Mega already hear
they're friends of ours from It's a Catholic thing. Yeah, and they have
some shady rais on by the way, Yes they do. And Tom boyd
he's got the pro series on the Yeah Spectacular. What I want to know
is what is the weight limit of that bouncy house because I want to get
in that bouncy cast. Oh yeah, because that plastic in there is probably
not a thousand degrees. So uh. And you're drinking coffee, Yeah,
that's that's That's an old trick. You drink hot coffee out on summer day
and it kinda it's like a radiator, you know, Dave, how are
you, sir? Couldn't be better, gentlemen. You've done plenty of these
Carriage Forward remotes with us, and we usually have a tent out here at
Tents on the way. We're gonna get one of those. But it feels
like the State Fair. I feel like I'm at the State Fair. Crazy.
Look over to your left. I think there's a big air conditioned lobby.
Oh damn it, Oh my gosh, why why didn't we think of
that? David Dwight's already been Prima Donna since he walked up. I'm saying,
but it's probably too cold in there. It's probably like sixty eight or
something, right, it's too cold. Probably too miserable, yeah, to
be miserable. All right, So Carrot's four tenth sale is happening. They're
going to try to sell every car and truck on this lot in the next
two days. We've got Wieners being served here at about eleven thirty or so,
so, and Marty's gonna be cooking those up himself. Uh. But
Tim and Mingger here because they are looking at the Maverick. Boy, I
gotta tell you, those broncos sure are beautiful. They're hard to keep on
the line, but somehow Marty's got plenty of these broncos. I'm looking at
that gray one there. I don't think any I don't think any of us
are cool enough to drive one of those. No, But you know,
if you attend the windows. Nobody knows a good point. It's a nerd
like me driving and going. All right, so you you your failure,
yes you failed it? What everything in life? Well, specifically today I
forgot or did not get Donnie Osmond on the show. I couldn't. What
do you mean you couldn't. It takes dude, sometimes these interviews. I
worked for weeks to get somebody on. If anybody is listening it works at
the Palace or knows the manager of Donnie Osmond. We need him on the
show today. We are huge fans. We love Donny Osmond. He's in
town for Sunday night. We need Donnie at the car lots and just for
you, just so you know, Donnie Osman, if you're listening, we
know you are. Tony. I'm a little bit rock and roll. Tony's
a little bit cut. That's true that that is together. He's a little
bit country. I'm a little bit rock and roll. I said I was
always in love with your sister, and he said, Donny Osman goes,
yeah, I bet you were. Uh. I should have told me about
holding the poster of her up. Thank you. I know he took it
well though he did he took it. Well, all right, so the
dumpster went well yesterday, Oh, how it's almost it's about it's about three
quarters full. But I will tell I've got to get the damn name of
the dumpster company. Uh, but it's less than three hundred bucks. I
got a fifteen yard dumpster and I was throwing stuff away, like, how
do they even have this? I can see the joy on your face because
I cleaned the garage out and it's it's you have things in there. You're
like, why do I have this? It's that drunken middle of the night
facebook by You got like a half a vacuum cleaner, and go, well,
you never know when you're a vacuum cleaner. Of course, I need
brushes that attach to my portable drill. It could be a part because he
cleans it. Oh you know, it's best explained through that Guyico commercial where
the guys teaching people not to be their parents is showing what to throw away
there dumpster. Yeah yeah, yeah, he goes, look these formats,
He goes, do you still have that? Car? Goes, I do
not, And then there's a like remember the seventies eddies they had the tissue
box covers. Yeah, he put over a tissue box. Yes, and
he goes, Okay, tissues come in your own boxes. We don't need
that. Now, I'm okay with anything, like I'll throw anything away.
If I didn't use it in six months, I'm ready to throw it away.
But I used the one year rule. If we didn't touch it in
a year, it's gone. And then but Jackie, you know the wives,
they're a little different. Yeah, oh, you can't throw that away
yet. Yes, we can. Here is the biggest thing for me.
When I lived on Dixie Highway, I used to hold on to anything and
everything that was my father's. Yes, okay, yeah, agreed, super
sentimental. But then before Susan and I got married, we started watching Hoarders
together. Oh yes, all right, So now it's time for me to
move by Dixie Highway house to her house out in the East End. And
I looked at all this stuff and I was throwing it away, saying,
this is not my dad, this is not my dad, this is not
my dad. And people going you will throw this away up, keep it
if you want to, but don't keep it in my house. I pursed
a lot. I will say, get the dumpster Dave, you're gonna do
it, right? Do you have a lot? We do. We've got
a purge that has to happen. Absolutely. Yeah. It's so freeing.
And you just throw it because the door, the front door opens to those
dumpsters, so you're not throwing it over. You just go and you just
start throwing things away now yesterday. So the jacket, my old Q two
one oh five point nine, you can throw that away. Jacket is there.
It is on the side of the dumpster. And I haven't decided over
orangely, you gotta keep it, man, I don't know, dude,
then give it to me. No one knows that radio. Then give it
to me. It was opened for like six months. If you throw it
away, give it to me. I'm serious, it's yours. That's that's
right, there's history John did take that day. Yeah, I'm gonna word
over his house next winter and on the chair, damn it. I mean
that's why I'm like, nobody knows this radio. Seriously, I want it,
okay, But yeah, that's the kind of stuff you gotta cut loose
man. Yes, no, yes, here's where you need to get rid
of. Only photo albums. You never looked through that you know, our
wedding videos, you know, stuff like that that you never use, and
then you get the sentimental stuff like Jackie found the first little pair of shoes
for John there on top of Oh, she just started crying. Did you
throw them away? You know we couldn't throw those away? It's just first
pair of shoes. Who could you? I mean, well, let me
ask you this. Let me just choose you by your own metric system.
Yes, have you used them in the past year? Damn? No,
there you go, you got there, you go? Okay, So carriage
forward is where we are today. Last night the biggest news was Metro Council
passed Craig green Bird's budget to the tune of one point one billion dollars,
which jpss j oh, that's cute. That's cute. One point one billion.
The biggest chunk of the budget is public safety good, so by far
the biggest number in the budget total is public seat good because he is at
least fulfilling his promise with that. But I'll tell you and and still until
we get horrible judges off the bench like who like I don't know, for
example, Judge Julie Caylen, who lets someone who gunned and I'm sorry.
I didn't get it. I didn't get it. Julie Calen. Let me
be right here. Let me say the dishonorable Julie Kaylen who a guy shoots
and then about five times she shocks him out in five months. By the
way, there's also a pedophile that was going to prison. She shocked him
out. Okay, so that budget's passed. I think he got most of
what he wanted. I haven't heard. It's just so weird. We need
to talk to somebody from Metro Council because they're just not Remember under Fisher,
it was like every day there was a night fight which Metro Council and yeah
and Fisher And we need to get somebody on the air from the Metro.
Let me ask you a question. I'll drop it. What with a judge
like Julie Kaitlin who Julie cale Yes, when you make a decision to put
to let a violent criminal who shot somebody five times out on shock probation,
I would say, but I could be wrong. This is me outside looking
in. Either you're incredibly stupid, you're on the take, or you're evil.
What other three options would there be for letting someone out? On shock
probation, you're either incompetent or you're on the take, probably bought off with
dunkin Donuts, or if or if you're just pure evil? Is there any
other explanation? What happens to probation hearings where a group of people make a
decision, not just one who says lawyers. We don't need lawyers, we
don't need jails, we just need my decisions. But does the question make
sense that I'm proposing, David, Because what other rational explanation could there be?
You're either incompetent in your job, you're evil, or you're on the
take another three options instad I don't know mental illness. Look, you can't.
You can't throw a blanket over all of it and try to have a
conversation. But in this instance, this guy nineteen years old pulled a gun,
asked for the guy's wallet while he's walking the dog in the park.
He shot him. Was it five times? Five times? Miracle? The
guy lives right, But the mindset of oh, you're not gonna give me
my wallet, back back back, back, back back back. You believe
five months in prison is and out? Is the is the idea there that's
where we're all confused. You don't get I would love for what's your name,
uh, the dishonorable judge juy Cat, invite you to come on the
show any time please. We would love to have love to have you on
to talk about what your thought pattern by by shock probation, someone that would
We're not that specific. We're not gonna pay for catering. Let me just
say that, right, all right, all right? Donald Sutherland died.
I saw that. Man. Uh, it's funny because fun In the news
story this morning, they were like, everyone knows him as mister Snow from
the Mockingbird series. I know him as the I know if I know him
from the professor at the Animal House. Yes, with with no pants on
the refrigerator. That's Hawkeye Peers in mash Yeah, that's true too, in
the movie Match for anybody it's not old enough. Yeah, but I but
I'm mostly knowing for being pantsless at the refrigerator and he's the professor. There's

dish out of it and this little butt poke and then that you're the guy

nephew bought one and it didn't have the tire whatever. He said, I'm
not buying one without the tire in the back. Right. Why didn't they

OJ's Bronco. You know what would be a good god rest He's okay,
okay, let's talk about you. Let's cook some wieners later. These are
gonna be Wiener King, Winger Wiener King, Scott trow Bridge my man and
loves Scott Trove, Harris and Cougar. Man. I gotta tell you a
good wiener I don't need anything on it. I can eat it like at
the ballpark if I get a good hot dog, I don't need like maybe
some mustard, but I could eat a plane. It's like a plane.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. What's your what's your Wiener?
You know, whenever I picked these up the other day, he said,
you know, as long as I've been doing this, he said, I
just don't get over the he goes, I can't stop doing the winner jokes,
of course, and it's it's a fact. I mean, you know,
it's it serves itself up on a platter. Uh. The like wieners
are funny when you're five, If they're funny when you're seventy five, absolutely
well for man, But if you ask me a plane, a plane wiener
is okay, but it's kind of boring. I like my wiener to have
a little pizazz. Well, I don't like them. I'm sorry, let's
get serious. I don't understand the relish part. Really yeah, I don't
get real. I don't get the relish way you're talking about. I don't
even know what relish is. Pickles. That's why, that's why I hate
it. Pickles wrong. If a pickle touches my sand much, I have
to throw the sandwich. And well, my god, my mom made whole
made pickles. Sweet pickles that come in these chunks. It's so gross made
the kerosene. Just thought last week. I just saw last week. I
just saw it last week whenever they took out the store, bought once they
gave away at the county line and they were given they were giving hers away
to people traffic stop right, sorry, alright, alright, carrits for it.
The idea of the ten sale. We want to get rid of everything,
cars, trucks, used, new whatever. You have, actually extra
finance people here ready to go. Well, yeah, I'm sorry, but
we got we also have some extra rebates forward a lot of us, some
rebates that we can pick and choose to use. Yeah, okay, we've
had them all month. We saved them for today and tomorrow. All right,
So whatever your best thing is, we're gonna be able to give you
and any of you that come in for his first come, first server on
these baby. Okay, but we've got eight of these at two and fifty
dollars a piece. Now, there's a lot of sales you do you guys
do to where the person never comes to the lot. Right, I understand
that, but I'm not a guy. Like when when Dwight was talking about
Sims furniture earlier. I have to sit on the couch. I can't buy
a couch online. I had to sit in it and go, oh no,
I can sleep in five minutes in this, and now I'll buy it.
I got to get in the car and drive around the block. I
just And that's what the tent sale's about. Yes, if you want to
buy a car and never come to a lot, Marty will take care of
that. Now. When I bought a car here, I don't know a
couple months ago from my daughter. Was it a fusion? Fusion here,
it's fusion. The closing guy with the paperwork, it took five minutes,
but the entire desk is a like a computer top. Oh really? So
he goes. So he goes, takes his hand and he turns the paper
around with his hand like it's a mission impossible movie. And he goes,
slides it over and I go. He goes sign that. I said with
what with your finger? And I went signed it and then he goes next
one, bang, next one, and the whole You had a perfect opportunity
to sign it with something else, and you did. I know I didn't.
I'm a hot dog. Well look I don't know who cleans that desk.
Yeah, that would be rude for that poor person. Uh, but
it's it's next level technology here a carriage Forward. So whatever form you want
to do it, you can do it. Uh. But you don't have
just Forward. You have some other makes and models too, right for Yeah,
yeah, we got we got a Chevy truck out here. We've got
a few different trade We got a I don't know, we got a Honda.
I know, we got two or three key Is, different things like
that. We want everything, it doesn't matter. And you know, we're
still buying people's vehicles that come up. We've bought two this week where somebody
just had an extra vehicle they didn't need, you know, for this reason
or that reason, God forbid, it's a death or something like that,
you know. And but it's previous customers and stuff. And we know these
cars, you know, we know this stuff. And if you come in,
I will show you it's a J number car and it's a special vehicle.
We know the history of everything. When I do all the auction buying,
me and my dad used to do it together. For oh, the
auctions. I bet that's wild it. You know, you talk about online.
Yeah, I don't even leave my office anymore. Well, yeah,
and they got everything rated. I do a history report on every vehicle we're
looking at. We buy only grade four point six to five. Four point
six is clean, okay, five is like super duper clean. We won't
even look at it if it's anything below that. So we know ahead of
time that these things are perfect vehicles before they even get on the lot,
Before they even get a lot, we pay for them. I mean,
it's we're gonna be a little bit different than when somebody that's got thirty two
thousand mile explorer down the road and we got one with four thousand miles.
Now, what's the worst rating? Because I used to work for a car
lot that used to buy just those, right, I say one? Hell,
I don't know, is there a one? You don't know? I
don't know. I've never dude. These one of the worst cars. You
know. The cell is like, mister Jones, This this car comes with
no warranty. So if you roll off the lot and into the street,
it breaks in half. Mister Jones, you own both half both halves.
Is still the work? We still want to talk about books carriage for been
around ever? Uh, your father and this, Yeah, there was the
story. It was it was different dealerships before in partnership with Phillips Kobe uh
at Jacoby Sales. That was in the farm business, in right business.
Oh okay yeah, and so uh this opportunity to come to get the property.
I think there was more hunting. So he sold combines and Rendy co.
Yeah, stuff like that. So yeah, no tractors out there,
rig and pop mar. I think they got eight dealerships. You grew up
on a farm, Yeah I did, you did. I told you guys
that before. Dude, I can't remember milk cows. You milk cow,
milk cows. Remember the machine? You know? I tried to milk a
chicken once, tough. Yeah, it's cut his head off and they don't
like that. They don't like that at all. The feathers yet. Fact
then right, you did the whole chicken. Man. I've got this image
of Marty Book as a farmer. Oh, I did already over us my
mom, No, I didn't wear overall. I always tell everybody my mom
was my first agent, because whenever I got home from school, you're going
to moments chases and you're going to my AGAs or whatever. And one way
he paid me and remember that brock candy that God accept Oh dude, because
that's what you did. There was no negotiation. Wow. Right, So
he started their implement and the then how do you get in the car?
But they this this opportunity became available. They was in partnership with I can't
remember who. The name was something that I think there used to be a
long John Silver's in the all Biting or something, and anyway, this this
here they went in through called dealer Development. You brow the money from Ford,
all right, and the Ford puts somebody in here. They had nothing
to do with it. They was owners of the of the business, but
they had nothing to do with it. Okay, this the first guy was
the worst dealer you could imagine in your life, except for the next guy.
Okay, stealing whatever you could think of. It was all going on.
The dealer's name was Witting. Go ahead, Yeah, I'm with you,
brother. And then so finally Dad says, you know what, if
we're going down, I'm going down with it, right, and so you
come in here. He didn't know Jack from Shinola about cars or anything.
One of my favorite stories that he traded for a manure spreader. What like
the first year he was here, he because he still had all those farmer
business. He traded sold a car and traded in. They traded a manure
spreader. And he told our general sales manager time, he said, don't
worry. He said, this guy's got the nicest manure spreader. You're he
was only driven to the barn and right anyway, he originally started out selling
refrigerators for International Harvester. We still got an original in mom and Dad's basement.
And this thing, it it's I can't it is one tenth of a
degree below freezing your beer. Wow, I mean it is right, this
is perfect right, want it? And then, of course we were good
little kids. We got a kinds of stashes we always to work with.
Oh yeah, but where did the best buyer coach your mile come from?
That was him and the ad agency at the time. And I don't remember
who. I don't know whose original was. Uh he used to do Remember
Chris Hinkle? Uh the ABC Yes, yes, yes, yeah, he's
from Indiana. He did commercials with that, okay. And then you had
Paul Horny. We had Paul Horny, which by the way, went to
flage A. We got the flashy guys coming on in about ten fifteen minutes.
Yeah, yeah, he's flash a and and uh Notre Dame and all
that jazz. He and then I worked with Paul doing advertising. Is that
where you got your gambling addiction? Was hanging out with Paul. He would
kill me. He was Oh my god, he had some stories. He
ohde It was called the unbuckle. He like if some game, yes,
unbuffalo, Yes, I mean it's get your get take your belt off,
get the wallet out and unbuffle go go go go right, oh boy,
right, Uh, but you know we love being with you guys. That
carriage for your family thing and and here's the thing. You want to connect
to a family that owns the business, and that's what you guys do.
We just I was just up in Marty's office and there's a giant portrait of
all of the kids and I'm kids, there was like any grand kids.
It's like twenty people in the picture, and you're like, see that little
baby here and he goes. That guy's right in there and he had a
headset on working and it's a family operation. Uh. And then I met
the daughter the other day she was in the TV commercial. But we want
to connect to families, and that's what carriage for it is. And so
if you're gonna buy our car truck from somebody, might as well come over
here and do that. We're going to tell you the truth, and we
might, we might make mistakes or whatever. I quote Dad around here all
the time to the point drives everybody nuts. But one thing, two things
when you bring something on board. One, if if you sell some my
car and you see him in the mall, you're not going to want to
hide from him, want to come and talk to him, right, and
you're gonna want to talk to them. Secondly, we want every penny we
deserve, but we don't want one penny that we don't deserve. That's crazy
because what I sold advertising, That's how I was, I said, I
told my wife, I said, I want to be able to look every
single in the final concert freedom how I don't want to duck anybody, right,
And so sometimes I would tell him this, this is not right for
you. Consistent too. So you have families that are like my dad bought
cars here, I buy cars here, my sister buys stars here. Once
you find a good dealer that you stick with them. Oh, eighty to
ninety percent of our business is repeat business. That's crazy. I could see
that that is crazy number. And there was I remember one time somebody come
in that wanted to wanted to steer us away from Ford Credit on our floor
plane and things like that. And the guy bet Betsy's awesome about not letting
people get to me. But this guy got it. And so anyway,
and so I was sitting there and I said, come here. And we
just had to sale at the time, and I to him, I said
come here, and we walked out and show room. I said, you
see all those tables that's got customers at them right now, I said,
they all bought here before. Yes, right, it's because we don't take
people in the finance office and screw them and window ch or this or that
or that's gonna help your insurance or nothing. You don't keep customers that way.
That's exactly right. His name is Marty Book. You know it.
