Buckle up I want to tell you a short story about cars and people. I love cars and really enjoy driving—fast or slow, windows down, sunroof open, music blasting, singing, and drumming on the steering wheel. I love it all, especially a nice, quiet drive in the hill country. It’s peaceful, and for someone who has a mind that is constantly spinning, it’s also therapeutic. My car becomes my sanctuary. Since the age of 16, I’ve probably bought and sold over 25 vehicles and a motorcycle. All were used vehicles, and many were paid for in cash. I’ve also had the pleasure of working in car sales twice in my life—once in 1992 at Frank Brown Pontiac in Lubbock, Texas, and the second time in 2018 at Lockhart Ford. You learn a lot in the auto industry. It’s a mixed bag of coworkers and customers, and it’s a people business just like real estate. Vehicles and homes are generally the two largest (and most stressful) purchases that come with a pile of debt. There are hundreds of options to choose from—make, model, color, and dealership. Just like in real estate, it’s important to find someone you trust. The auto industry has had a bad reputation FOREVER because people get taken advantage of by greedy, lying xxxxxxxx. Recommendations from family and friends can help immensely when looking for a vehicle. Recently, my wife and I were in a place where buying a brand-new car for the first time was an option. For months, we researched and found the make and model she really wanted. On the recommendation of a family member, we went to see Jennifer Guerrero at Cavender Nissan in San Marcos, Texas. Jennifer is great! We test-drove a 2025 Nissan Kicks. They didn’t have the color my wife wanted, so we reserved one that was in transit. We could have easily gone up to Austin or down to San Antonio and bought one that day from another dealership, but since Jennifer came highly recommended we decided to do business with Cavender Nissan. When we went to pick it up on a Saturday, we waited longer than originally anticipated in finance and needed to leave. This was no fault of Jennifer’s, it was a busy day and there was miscommunication from other people. Eventually the dealership sent us home with the vehicle and we finalized the paperwork on Monday. All’s well that ends well, I say! Overall, it was a smooth transaction and a great experience. As someone who also works in a referral-based industry I know how beneficial they are, which is why I can’t recommend Jennifer Guerrero enough if you are looking for a vehicle! There is a reason she is the best of the best, and Cavender Nissan is blessed to have her on their team. I’m really glad we chose to go see her for our first brand-new Nissan! Thank you, Jennifer! You might even be able to talk me out of my current sanctuary one day….but I really love my FJ. 🙂
