From the Desk of Mark “The Gearhead” Eubanks
For all who are entertaining a
purchase of a car or truck from Mr. Joseph Reffner.
This letter of my experience is for
each of you.
On
New Years Day 2014 my wife was scrolling through the vast number of street rods
listed on Ebay as we were looking for a new (to us) cool shop truck and she
came across Joe’s listing for a 1959 Studebaker Scotsman pickup street rod.
The
listing was absolutely complete for accurate information associated with
pictures of the build as the build occurred. The decision was made after a
short review to call and speak with Joe and in a very quickly I realized I was
speaking with an extremely knowledgeable builder of street rods who wasn’t a
person who leads people on. He was concise in his answers to my questions and
often volunteered associated information related to the questions as we built a
buyer – seller relationship, so much so that I choose to get right down to
negotiating the price and a number was reached and on Friday Jan/03/2014 I
boarded a Southwest flight to Vegas where Joe met me at the airport, picked me
up took me the our bank where the money was gathered and we drove and talked to
his families home in Boulder City NV where we completed our deal and Joe showed
me all of the work in detail that had been completed on my newest purchase. My
confidence level in Joe at this point was very strong and he showed me how to
get out of town via a fuel stop to top off the “stude” and then it was 1200
miles to Plano, Texas. Here’s the really cool part of my experience with Joe!
All
the way home, several times both days Joe would call and check in with me and
see how it was going, how the truck was doing and just being my friend. There
is no price that can be placed on that level of commitment and follow-thru of a
sale of a custom car or truck in my experience!!
So…
If
you’re entertaining a vehicle purchase from Mr. Joe Reffner, I STRONGLY
ENCOURAGE you to do your due diligence, ask him your questions and for further
pics of the vehicle as he will answer all of them and send all the pics you
want or need, and get ready for a buying experience that all others are
measured against and the wonderful life-long friendship you will be creating
with Joe and his amazing family!
Anyone
whom needs too is welcome to call me as Joe has my number and I will be happy
to answer any questions of his character you may need answered!
Joe,
We
love you and are already saving for the next one!!!
Warmest
Regards,
Your
friend’s,
Mark
& Kim Eubanks
Plano,
TX

Volkswagen CrossBlue previews a three-row future, diesel-hybrid power [w/video]
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Volkswagen looks to be getting ready to jump into the large three-row crossover game. The automaker has officially pulled back the curtain on the CrossBlue Concept at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Designers and engineers penned the machine specifically for the Canadian and US markets, and with a plug-in diesel electric hybrid drivetrain, the hulking five-door, at least in concept form, should offer substantially better efficiency than anything else on the market. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a combined output of 305 horsepower and a ludicrous 516 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifting detail, while one electric motor spins the front wheels. The second motor spins the back axle independently, make the CrossBlue a through-the-road hybrid.
As a result, the crossover can pop to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Perhaps more impressively, the CrossBlue can whir around on all-electric propulsion for up to 14 miles at up to 75 mph. Once the diesel four kicks in, the drivetrain can yield up to 39 mpg, though Volkswagen says the hardware can hit 89 MPGe on a full charge thanks to a 9.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Check out the full press release below for more information.
Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind
Mon, 28 Jan 2013TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.
Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
