Episode Overview

This lively hour from The John Clay Wolfe Show is classic JCW flavor—fast-talking car culture, no-holds-barred humor, and honest-as-they-come car business talk. The main focus this week is on the infamous "Top 10 'Bitch' Cars," playful banter about masculinity and cars, and colorful real-world auto sales insight. The crew takes listener calls for vehicle valuations live, shares stories from the business, and debates everything from Super Bowl betting to why certain rides just don't have street cred.

Key Segments & Highlights

• JCW opens with his signature parody song all about buying cars, setting the show's irreverent, self-aware vibe.
• "[Singing] I'm John Claywolf and I buy the car. I buy the cars that barely start or go...I'm the real deal and I buy the car." (02:26)
• Lighthearted shots at the car world—almost any vehicle, anywhere, any condition.

---

2. Music Talk: Minimalist Bands (03:27 – 04:13)

• John and Brad chat about a band whose sound remains consistent—maybe too consistent, according to music critics.

3. The (Controversial) Top 10 “Bitch” Cars List (04:14 – 09:00)

• #9: Nissan Murano – "You know, it's a bitch car."

• #2: Any minivan. "There's not—you can't drive a minivan and not feel like a [bitch]. ...You sit there and you're like, is this what I want my life to be? Driving around in a minivan?" (08:32, Brad)
• #1: Anything made by Volkswagen (not Audi).

4. Call-in with “Red Hair Ryan”: Defending the Volkswagen (09:00 – 15:33)

• John calls up his friend Ryan, who daily drives a Volkswagen diesel wagon—the show's #1 “bitch car.”
• Ryan argues it’s a practical, “thinking man’s car” due to high mileage and great fuel efficiency (over 40 mpg, $500+ in compensation for emissions scandal).
• "I'm a thinking man, by the way, and so Volkswagen is a thinking man's car. That's what I like to say." (10:36, Ryan)
• Ryan stands his ground, explains his logic (dollar-saving over image), and jokes about fighting guys in big trucks.
• Brad teases: "Volkswagen punches with the limp wrist..." (14:06, Brad)
• John: "You can tell why we're good friends. He's got a personality. But I'm surprised to see him drive that car." (15:17)

---

5. Mini Coopers & Vehicle Profitability (15:39 – 16:48)

• JCW and Brad vent frustration about Mini Coopers being a losing bet for car buyers and resellers.

---

6. Ride of the Week: 2016 Chevy Impala 2LZ (16:49 – 18:59)

• "It feels like a 5 Series BMW. That’s how it drives, actually." (18:25, John Clay Wolfe)

• JCW takes more live calls for vehicle appraisals, demonstrates the process, explains trade-in vs. dealer offers, tax credits, and how to maximize their value.

• “We're not your regular car dealer. ... We want to buy them, but... we’re not throwing games around.” (33:22, John Clay Wolfe)

---

10. More Lightning On-Air Bids & Buying Stories (41:14 – 49:23)

[Show Announcer]

Now back to the John Clay Wolf show. Hit him up right now. 1-800-800-Radio. This is the John Clay Wolf show.

[John Clay Wolf]

I haven't heard about these guys in a while. This is a good song.

[Brad]

They have an album out. It's not doing great. It's not bad, though. It's the problem they're getting is their sound kind of sounds the same, which I don't mind.

[John Clay Wolf]

There's only so much you can do. I don't.

[Brad]

I don't mind it. But people just like sounds all the.

[John Clay Wolf]

Same, you know, Whatever. I can't believe they make as much sound as they do with two instruments.

[Brad]

Yep, it's great.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did they record like this or do they have a band? I hear a bass in there, dude. Well, they.

[Brad]

When they record, they'll have. And they have a base. When they're on live stage too, they'll have a bass, but it's in the background. It's not like standing behind the stack. Exactly.

[John Clay Wolf]

So it's not just two of them.

[Brad]

Not all their songs?

[John Clay Wolf]

No.

[Brad]

Some of them they are, yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

Does he play that bass string on the guitar? To make it work. I mean, how do you do it without a base? Don't know. Top 10 vehicles that if you're a guy driving them makes you a B otch. This is on a John Clay Wolf show page on Facebook, by the way.

[Brad]

Since Casey's not here, figured you'd do something, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Sure. The top ten cars for dudes. Number ten, Ford Escape. Ouch. Sorry, J.D. j.D. Yeah. No, he didn't drive one or anything. Number nine, Nissan Murano. You know it's a bitch car. Is it? Yeah. Okay, if it is, it is. You don't think so? If it is, it is. You just gotta let it be what it is. If it's a bitch car, it's a bitch car. Number eight is definitely a car. Oh, my. A Mini Cooper.

[Brad]

Yes. And you're a bitch if you buy one. Not only because you look gay, but it's a piece of crap.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're a bitch if you buy one. And you're a bitch if you drive one. And you're a bitch if you've ever owned one. Yes, yes.

[Brad]

I'm talking to you driving it right now.

[John Clay Wolf]

Number seven, Jeep Liberty.

[Brad]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

In everyone's defense, just because someone's trying to be economical and get along and not, not, not live the American dream and spend all their disposable income on car payments, fuel and insurance, that didn't make them a. But. But if you're this deal, it does. So, yeah, you're a. I mean, you're not gonna catch me in no cheap Liberty. Exactly. Number six Fiat. Yeah.

[Brad]

I mean, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, Really? I mean, JLo Fiat 500. I think. What's gayer, A Mini Cooper or a Fiat 500?

[Brad]

I think mini Cooper. Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, no, I don't know. That's pretty bad.

[Brad]

You could kind of make the Mini Cooper look semi respectful.

[John Clay Wolf]

And if you're a British dude, if you're an autocrosser.

[Brad]

Yeah, yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

And you.

[Brad]

But you can't do that with a Fiat.

[John Clay Wolf]

Hella. Hella. High beams in the front lowered a little bit.

[Brad]

Profile.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, But I drove a Fiat 500 as a demo car about three years ago. And I felt so gay. I felt so gay. I felt like some gay person was gonna come pull me out of the car and rape me. My Uber guy was in a Fiat yesterday. Oh, really? He rode in one? Yeah, I rode into one yesterday. To the rodeo. Did you? Oh, wow. Try getting dropped off at the rodeo wearing your cowboy hat in a Fiat with your girlfriend.

[Brad]

Oh, well, at least you had your girlfriend. You're by Yourself.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you. Did you feel like a. I did. Saleeb loved it, but I hated it.

[Brad]

Okay.

[John Clay Wolf]

They have more room in them than you would think, though, is what's funny. All right, so number five is. Number six is the Fiat. Number five is for sure the PT Cruiser.

[Brad]

No, that's just.

[John Clay Wolf]

Number four is a Smart. Now, now that I'm just thinking while I'm reading this. It's funny we're thinking the same thing because when I. When I said PT Cruiser and then I saw a Smart car, I thought, what about Miata? And then number three is Miata.

[Brad]

Yeah. If you're a dude with a top down and a Mazda Miata.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Brad]

You're a.

[John Clay Wolf]

You're a. I think if you're driving a convertible Camaro, six cylinder, you're a.

[Brad]

Yeah, I would agree.

[John Clay Wolf]

Six.

[Brad]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

An ss. That's nice.

[Brad]

If it's an A. SS convertible, you could be.

[Caller or Singer]

You're right.

[John Clay Wolf]

If you're driving a convertible Camaro, the newest, nicest one with the best leather and all the equipment and the top drops on it. Dude, you're a. You got to have a mullet to pull off that ride, I believe.

[Brad]

Wasn't there a 350, a 370Z in there too? You're a bitch if you drive one of those.

[John Clay Wolf]

It doesn't say that, but I'm gonna go with a 353 70Z convertible.

[Brad]

Convertible especially.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, you're a bitch. I bought one of those yesterday. Yeah, some girl needs it. Mm, exactly. Or some douche. Douche. Number one. Number two. Any minivan. Top 10 bitch cars brought to you by the John Clay Wolf show this morning. If you drive any of these, that means you're a bitch. Any minivan? Yeah, any minivan.

[Brad]

There's not. You can't drive a minivan and not feel like a. I'm sorry, you just.

[John Clay Wolf]

Have you done it?

[Brad]

Yeah, it is just.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did you.

[Brad]

It's because it was a demo and.

[John Clay Wolf]

I got out of it. Yeah, I got out of her real.

[Brad]

Quick and gave it to Connie because she has a bunch of kids. So.

[John Clay Wolf]

You felt bad about yourself?

[Brad]

Oh, yeah. It just. You sit there and you're like, is this what I want my life to be? Driving around in a minivan?

[John Clay Wolf]

Honda Odysseys are pretty nice when they're all loaded out, but I mean, I hear you. For your wife or your girlfriend that.

[Brad]

Has a bunch of your kids.

[John Clay Wolf]

Number one bitch car in the United States of these God blessed Americas. Is anything made by Volkswagen?

[Ryan]

Yep.

[John Clay Wolf]

Not Audi, but Volkswagen.

[Brad]

Yeah. Anything.

[John Clay Wolf]

My buddy Drives, and he's one of my best friends. Red hair Ryan, Remember him? Oh, yeah. He drives a diesel Volkswagen wagon. Oh, no. Really? Oh, no, no. I think we should call him. What year is it? Fairly new. He probably gets about 50 miles to the gallon.

[Brad]

Yeah, I mean, if you're like one of those.

[John Clay Wolf]

When one of your good friends does something like that, it's hard to, you know. You know they did it. Hey, hang on a second. Hang on. Ryan, are you there? Yeah, you're on the radio, by the way. Good morning. Good morning, everyone. Just real quick, we were going through the top 10 bitch cars, and I was reading an awful list. If you drive any of these cars, that means you're a bitch. And, you know, Mazda Miana in a Ford Escape and a PT Cruiser and a Mini Cooper and all that stuff. And the number one car on the list was anything made by Volkswagen. Then I said, you know, my best man in my wedding. Are you calling me a. I'm not calling you anything. I'm calling to let you defend yourself, because you're the person that made the. The sober decision to go to the Volkswagen dealership and buy a Volkswagen Passat. Not the car, but the wagon and put a diesel in it. And I know you get great gas mileage. I just wondered if you had anything to say.

[Ryan]

All right, so here's. Here's my. Here's my. I'm a thinking man, by the way, and so Volkswagen is a thinking man's car. That's what I like to say. Yeah. So here's what happened. I drive a lot. Every year, probably 40,000 miles. And I drove a crew cab. Super duty. Not super duty. And a man truck. Yes. And I was very proud of it. And I was driving 40,000 miles a year, and I'm not pulling anything, by the way. I would every once in a while, and that's why I bought it. But most of the time, I'm just driving on the highway. I felt like I was taking bucket.

[John Clay Wolf]

The tree hugger in. You took over?

[Ryan]

No, not tree hugger. It's a. It's. It's just a dollars and cents deal. I was taking cash and just throwing it out the window. Hey, here you go. Look, I'm cool.

[John Clay Wolf]

I kind of did the same thing when you bought the Volkswagen. No, no, I just hear what he's saying.

[Ryan]

I Learned the Volkswagen TDI. And the TDI gets 40 miles a gallon. 40 miles a gallon. Okay, so it's not a tree hunter thing. Because take it in. In. In context with what's Going on with the recalls. Are you familiar with that?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes.

[Ryan]

Okay. So I have zero remorse.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right.

[Ryan]

Over, over having all the.

[John Clay Wolf]

So you're not going to take your car in to get the computer fixed until they, like, come and take it, pry it from your dead, cold hands?

[Ryan]

Yeah, I will actually put a sticker on the back. It says not fixed.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right.

[Ryan]

But here's, here's the beauty. And I'm not a paid spokesman for Volkswagen. I'll say this. So they sent me in the mail just as an apology. 500 Visa gift card that I can spend anywhere. $500. It's like service, like a service gift card, right. That I get 500 worth of service, and then if I spend it all in the same dealership, I get 250 extra. I got, I got excellent gas mileage for the whatever, four or five years that I've had this car, and I plan on driving it until it falls apart. So great gas mileage. And then they just gave me, you know, twelve hundred dollars just for, you know, thinking that I'd feel bad about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

How many miles are on it now?

[Ryan]

120,000.

[John Clay Wolf]

And you bought it new? All right.

[Brad]

Yeah, but it's a van, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, no, no. It's a wagon.

[Brad]

Okay, okay. Oh, station wagon.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's a station wa.

[Ryan]

In. If you were up in Colorado or the north.

[John Clay Wolf]

We're not. Which. We're not.

[Ryan]

Which we're not. This would be, this would be everybody's suburban.

[John Clay Wolf]

If your aunt had balls, she'd be your uncle, but she's not. So what do you feel?

[Ryan]

Say that my aunt doesn't.

[John Clay Wolf]

Have you ever, have you had anybody give you any grief over this car?

[Ryan]

What do you mean in terms of.

[John Clay Wolf]

You'Re, you're wuss today, besides this call.

[Ryan]

I had some people at the office, some girls at the office, But I'm their boss, and so I intimidated them mildly. And they said, oh, that's the toughest car we've ever seen.

[John Clay Wolf]

Has anyone ever just like, thrown a shake at your window at a stoplight?

[Ryan]

No, because I, you know, I'm not a, not a meek guy. I would get up and not start throwing some Volkswagen punches.

[Brad]

Volkswagen punches with the limp wrist punch.

[Ryan]

I'll put the, the emblem on my fist and start swinging.

[Brad]

Slap on.

[Ryan]

I drive a Volkswagen. And some guys, you've seen the, the, you know, guys that are trying to overcompensate, driving gigantic trucks. I'll take, I'll take that bet any day. I'll take that out. If, if I was pulled up next to a car of some dude that, that was way overcompensating. And I say, okay, you've got, you got a chance to get in a fight with this guy. I think I'd take it. I think I'd take it.

[John Clay Wolf]

You pull up behind that truck and the bull balls from the trailer hitch, sit on your hood.

[Brad]

It's teabagging your Volkswagen teabag in your station wagon.

[Ryan]

So then I take, I take, you know, I hop out, I beat him to the curb. I take him and I. And I just wipe the floor with my Volkswagen. How big a guy, how big a guy do you think that guy feels like?

[John Clay Wolf]

We've got to go. I appreciate it. All right. Volkswagen is going to love you. 800. 800. 7, 2, 3, 4.

[Brad]

He stood his ground.

[John Clay Wolf]

He did 800. You can tell why we're good friends. I mean, he's got a personality. But I'm surprised to see him drive that car. He's still.

[Brad]

He's gonna go with it. He's got 120,000 miles. He ain't getting out of it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Back it off. No. Oh, wow. He ain't backing off at all.

[Brad]

But you, you. Are you gonna buy any of those vehicles? Sure, right? You go to givemetheven.com oh, absolutely.

[John Clay Wolf]

800. 800 radio. Go to givemetheven.com I don't want any PT Cruisers. No, I'll pass on those.

[Brad]

And Mini Coopers, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

Mini Coopers I'll look at on a case by case basis. So we have Mini Coopers basically on our no buy list because over the years we've learned that it's impossible to make any type of profit at all on a Mini Cooper under warranty. Yeah, factor warranty. Yesterday there's one coming through the lane in semi in mc point blank. Said, hey, Wolf, here comes the Mini Cooper for you. And sure enough, the motor was out of it.

[Brad]

I mean, just.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, it's unbelievable. There needs to be a class action against the Brits.

[Brad]

You think they did it on purpose?

[Ryan]

Something.

[Brad]

I mean, it's just gotten too stupid way getting back.

[John Clay Wolf]

What year did the car come out? Oh, five, maybe earlier. Oh, three. I don't know. Something like that. None of them are running at all. I mean, the ones in warranty are okay, but they cannot stay running. This is a defective product. More so than a blue screen on a Mississippi DOS machine. I mean, it's just a bad deal. So that's my comment on Mini Cooper. We need to do a review on the Chevrolet Impala.

[Brad]

A man vehicle Here.

[John Clay Wolf]

How much time do I have?

[Brad]

You got plenty of time.

[John Clay Wolf]

Four minutes. Jeff is on line one. Jeff, we're gonna get to you next.

[Show Announcer]

Now. Now it's time for the ride of the week.

[John Clay Wolf]

This is not a B car. This is, this is an in betweener. It should be an Impala. Should be. But this car, if you look at the new Impala from the driver door forward, especially this ltz Impala, I feel like I'm looking at a Camaro's. You know what I mean?

[Brad]

And bigger though. I think some, I think some Camaros like you're Talking about the V6, they kind of look like a chick car, right? This, it just has the lines, the black on black rims.

[John Clay Wolf]

You like the car?

[Brad]

Oh, yes, yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

All right, it's 40 grand.

[Brad]

Well, you gotta like it. And it makes you. If you're a dad, you got a family. You can feel cool driving around with your kids in the car too.

[John Clay Wolf]

40 grand. It's, it's, it's troublesome for me to digest what cars cost, even though that's my business. An Impala. Golly. Okay, anyway. The 16 Impala 2LZ sedan. It's $40,000. It's absolutely gorgeous. Fast as lightning. Big 19 inch aluminum, like gray powder coated wheels, big rotors. It's. It's a hot rod. It's like an ss. If there was an SS is what it reminded me of. It runs like an ss. All the goodies. The ride is excellent. The tranny shifts perfectly. It feels like a 5 Series BMW. That's how it drives, actually.

[Brad]

You know what?

[John Clay Wolf]

I guess that's who they're competing.

[Brad]

That's exactly right. And it's cheaper.

[John Clay Wolf]

It's got the tight German feel.

[Brad]

Yeah, it's a lot cheaper than, than the 5 Series BMW.

[John Clay Wolf]

And I don't mean that underage girlfriend. Hey, 808. I remember to clip that out. See, that's why we don't send them. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. But yeah, the, the new Impala. The new Impala 2LZ sedan is a nice one. It's got that tight young German feel.

[Brad]

When do you think you'll see them.

[John Clay Wolf]

Rolling across the block this year?

[Brad]

You think right, right away they'll come through?

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, they all do. They come off the factory, the brass hat cars. The executives drive them and they sell them at the factory sales and they bring a lot. So if this car's 40 grand, it doesn't matter. 800, 800. 7. 2 3, 4, 800, 800 radio. We're gonna go to quick commercial break. Come right back. Jeff on line one. We will get you next.

[Kenny Powers]

Kenny Powers, Is that you at my new dealership?

[John Clay Wolf]

Ashley Schaefer.

[Kenny Powers]

Captain Kenneth J. Powers. I see you haven't forgotten about us little people.

[John Clay Wolf]

I thought you owned that BMW joint.

[Kenny Powers]

Oh, I did until I got tangled up with some Better Business Bureau bull. Misplaced VIN numbers, customer gouging allegations of prostitution, semi automatic weapons found with trace levels of cocaine dust. Those are minor details that don't need to be discussed further. You firing baseballs around my place didn't help much either. But I'm much happier here. Kia is a vastly superior machine.

[Caller or Singer]

Foreign.

[Show Announcer]

Now back to the John Clay Wolf Show. Hit him up right now. 1, 800, 800 radio. This is the John Clay Wolf Show.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay?

[Caller Dennis]

Nissan Cube.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's an oldie but a goodie. Neon.

[Caller Dennis]

Yeah, The Scion. The Scion xb.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, yeah, the box one. Okay. Anything Scion.

[Brad]

Anything box like that.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Go ahead, I'm listening.

[Ryan]

What.

[Caller Dennis]

What I call the poor man's. The poor man's PT Cruiser.

[Ryan]

The.

[Caller Dennis]

The Chevy hhr.

[Brad]

Yeah. Agreed.

[Caller Dennis]

Yeah, there you go.

[John Clay Wolf]

Agreed. Agreed. You just offended about 25% of the population, but that's fine.

[Caller Dennis]

I'm all about that. I'm all about that. Hey, listen, I don't have a truck to sell you. You bought this truck a week ago.

[John Clay Wolf]

I did.

[Caller Dennis]

I just wanted to give you a shout out.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did the check clear?

[Caller Dennis]

It did. Clear.

[John Clay Wolf]

Oh, wow. Damn. I knew one. I knew one of them would finally clear if we just kept trying hard enough.

[Caller Dennis]

Well, right up my nose.

[John Clay Wolf]

What did we get for your truck?

[Caller Dennis]

You gave me 11 five.

[John Clay Wolf]

11, 500. So you. Did you call into the show or just go to the givemetheven.com?

[Caller Dennis]

No, no, I called, I called in, and then I.

[Ryan]

Just for.

[Caller Dennis]

Just for kicks, I took it to Texas direct and they gave. They wanted to give me 11 for it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Ah, so you were the fellow. Hang on. So you talk. I talked to you last Saturday on the show. We made the deal in the air or two weeks ago?

[Ryan]

Yes.

[Caller Dennis]

Yeah, two weeks ago.

[John Clay Wolf]

Two weeks ago. So we made the deal. And then I remember when I got off the air, I was talking to the buyers. I said, this guy I talked to, I really feel he's. We did it one on the air. And I just he to. Kudos to you. I said, he sounds legit. Some people call and jerk us off, if that's a understandable term. And, you know, they just make stuff up and say that they want to be on the radio. Oh, yeah, you bought it. And they never answer their phone again. I said, I think this guy's real. And then we didn't talk to you for like a week. And. And he said, nope, he wasn't real. So you. You vaporized. But then you came back.

[Ryan]

Trevor.

[Caller Dennis]

Trevor called like a couple days later. It took me a couple days to get some pictures to him. And then, you know, Megan followed up with paperwork, and then I think it was Roger that was running the holler.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Caller Dennis]

And I mean, he gave me right back to my house because I live in a subdivision, so everything was. Was spot on. Just wanted to give you a shout out.

[John Clay Wolf]

As advertised, huh?

[Caller Dennis]

As advertised. Yeah. This is a. I think the third vehicle I've sold to you, but the first one just to give me the vin. I think the other two were for the old store.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. Before we broke off and did our own thing. That's excellent. And so you called in the show and I beat. They saw the car in person, and I beat them right off the hip over the radio. A flash that's.

[Caller Dennis]

You know, I had to wait. I had to wait over an hour.

[John Clay Wolf]

Not for me, but for them. So, so, so, so to hear that they wanted to give you. To hear that they wanted to give you 500 less than I hit you in 30 seconds on the air, you had to wait an hour. This is good. I like this. No, this is a good call. So what. What my goal here is, is I was like, what if a car dealer actually did for once in their life what they said they would do to an individual? Because they're rare. Real. I mean, card. The car business is the worst about lying over the phone. Come into the store. Come into the store. Come to the store and then change the figures and. Cool. Well, that. I'm glad to see that it's catching on. So when you told them, did you tell them that I hit it at 11:5?

[Caller Dennis]

No, I just. I just looked at him and I said, you know what, John? John Clay is giving me a lot more than that. And he just kind of looked at me sideways. And I. I didn't even want.

[Ryan]

I didn't.

[Caller Dennis]

I wasn't even looking for him to counter a match when I had our deal.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Ryan]

And that's.

[Caller Dennis]

That's what I wanted to do.

[John Clay Wolf]

That's funny. All right, well, good. I like those guys. I'm not down on those guys at all. And to tell you the truth, sometimes they're higher than I am. They'll step up on some cars that I can't. That I'll let them have them too. I mean, we're close, but CarMax, now, that's a different story. I will pay you a hundred dollar check if I don't beat a CarMax offer.

[Brad]

And you know how hard it is for John to do it. I witnessed that just yesterday. Yes, there was a check getting ready to be cut.

[John Clay Wolf]

It was cut, the hundred dollars to the customer. Right. Customer sends us a CarMax offer. Manager says, dude, don't do it. Just let them have it. And they ordered the check for the customer. The hundred dollars. The. I call it an agony of defeat check. Basically, let them have it. And they brought it in to have. Yeah, they brought it in to have me sign this $100 check to give to this guy just for trying. Give me the vin.com. and I just kept looking at it. I kept looking at this car and I kept thinking about it. I'm like, you know what? I'm just not gonna do it. I'm gonna buy the car. I'm gonna give him more money like I said I would. And it may lose. It's a 15,000 mile 05 Jeep Wrangler, but it's nothing. It's a stick shift, soft top with the good wheels. And I gave him 14:1 for it. And I know I gave him too much, but maybe not. We'll see.

[Brad]

But yeah, you had that check in your hand, getting ready to sign it.

[Caller Dennis]

And you said, no, I wouldn't even cash that check. I wouldn't have cashed that check. I would have framed it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Jeff, thanks for calling in and thanks. Thanks for being. Appreciate it. Bye bye. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio. We had somebody the other day, we need to get some headshots made of me. Turley. I've never done that, but we had people wanting headshots with their. My head swelling up as I'm talking. Can you see it? Have you seen this, Brad?

[Brad]

I have not seen this.

[John Clay Wolf]

He's had people that want. They want me to send them a signed picture.

[Brad]

Wow. Now your head's getting really big.

[John Clay Wolf]

Isn't that terrible?

[Brad]

Oh, man. Why did he tell you that even?

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, I was actually sitting in the room when the guy brought it up. Okay. On the phone. He said, well, he's right here. I'm like, oh, yeah. Well, I mean, hell, I never. I haven't been to a glamour shot since high school.

[Brad]

This is John Clay Wolf, celebrity here.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, would you like red, green, or black Sharpie? I mean, since I'm in the car business, it's got to be green, right? Everything's green. Go positive. 8008-0072-3480-0800, 7234. 800, 800 radio. 800, 800 radio. My name is John Clay Wolf. I buy cars over there, as you just heard. And you can go to. Give me the vin. Vin. Your VIN number dot com. Put in your VIN number, push a couple pictures. We'll buy your car sight unseen over the Internet or over the radio show. Right now.

[Brad]

It's easy. You can do it in your underwear.

[John Clay Wolf]

It is so easy that you can do it from your underwear that we did commercials last week with that line in it. Did all of them have. That is one of them.

[Brad]

Just one.

[John Clay Wolf]

I think that tag kind of caught on.

[Brad]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Because we've had some posts on our Jonquly Wolf, the show. This John Clay Wolf show, the Facebook page where people are sending us pictures from them, inputting their information from Their underwear.

[Brad]

Some you don't want to see.

[John Clay Wolf]

One of them was very, very, very overweight.

[Brad]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Bigger than strip club. Unbelievable.

[Brad]

We do like the girls in their underwears.

[John Clay Wolf]

I mean, I just see where this could get a lot of. I see where this could get legs.

[Brad]

Yes.

[John Clay Wolf]

And the girls in lingerie sending pictures in their underwear of us uploading the car. I mean, of course we're guys, we're gonna pay more. I mean, it's just. What's gonna happen? I mean, you know, you can't change the way that God created us all. Let's get religious. 800. 800 radio. I don't know who I'm talking to online for. Who's this?

[Caller Dennis]

Three man. Hello?

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah, yeah, that's you.

[Caller Dennis]

Hey man, my name is Dennis. I called, I was listening. And you're doing quotes on trucks.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yes, sir.

[Caller Dennis]

Hey man, are you located at the building 5353 Ralph Westheimer?

[John Clay Wolf]

No, I am. Are you talking about the radio station?

[Caller Dennis]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

No, I'm in Fort Worth, Texas, in a private studio.

[Caller Dennis]

Oh, all right, well, we're doing some work at this Devil Tree, literally right across from the 97.5 ESPN radio building.

[John Clay Wolf]

On Alabama and Westheimer.

[Caller Dennis]

Yes, sir.

[John Clay Wolf]

Ah, and you need to sell your rig.

[Caller Dennis]

Well, I've been thinking about it.

[John Clay Wolf]

What have you got?

[Caller Dennis]

It is a 012 Ford F150.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. How many miles?

[Caller Dennis]

About 65.

[John Clay Wolf]

Leather cloth, leather navigation and or sunroof. Two wheel drive or four wheel drive. Loaded.

[Caller Dennis]

The FX4.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so but it's ecoboost. It's nav and roof. And it's a six banger, sir. It's. It's navigation, sunroof. You said it's loaded. So it's got nav. Andrew. And it's a. It's an fx4 and it's a six banger. Crew cab not extended the four door. All right, I know what you got. How many miles? 60. What color?

[Caller Dennis]

Red with like a black decal kind of races trap down the side.

[John Clay Wolf]

I got you 22, 22 grand. 22, 22 five. 20, 20, 25, 22 five. Yep. Maybe a little. Maybe a little more because you've got all the equipment on it. Go to givemetheven.com and send us the rest of it. Hey, I gotta grab this one real quick. Shove. Good morning. You're on the air.

[Caller Dennis]

Hey, I just want to let you know we were on a vehicle. Yeah. Three weeks ago and I contacted one of your people. You were on the air at the time via text. And he. He Worked me significantly. And we didn't sell him the car because he was totally honest with us. He said, you know, we. With your tax credit, we can't meet that. He was going to give me more than the dealership was for sure.

[John Clay Wolf]

Right.

[Caller Dennis]

But he said. He actually gave me the advice and said, hey, take the tax credit, get ahead a little bit on that super nice guy. And actually called in, y' all weren't on the air, and complimented him to, I think, his supervisor.

[John Clay Wolf]

Good. Well, we're not your regular car dealer. We're not. We're not throwing games around. We want to buy them. But here's the problem. If. If the dealership hits you at 30 grand on your trade in. I'm sorry, let me start over. If the dealership. I'm using it. For instance, if the dealership hits you at 28,000 on a trade in and we bid it at 30, then with the tax credit involved, your real dollars are close. So if we go. If they go to 29, then the tax credit, then it's a match. Or they might be beating us a little bit. But what you can do is say, hey, Wolf's at 30. Will you give me 30? And Wolf will buy the truck from you for 30. Because I will. From the dealer.

[Caller Dennis]

I tried that. They wouldn't do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, then who was it?

[Caller Dennis]

They said they don't have a relationship with you. They're not going to do it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Who was it?

[Caller Dennis]

Tejas. Toyota.

[John Clay Wolf]

Tejas.

[Caller Dennis]

All right, well, they're on 59.

[John Clay Wolf]

I gotcha. And I don't know all the dealers in Houston, but if anybody else is in that position, they just need to call us. And I can talk to the used car manager. And after, after we talk to them, there's no doubt we will know common people and they can call and make sure that I do what I say I'm going to do. Because that's what they're worried about, that they get stuck with a car that's a thousand high and I'll buy them. But I appreciate you calling and anybody listening when that happens. If we're at 40 grand dealerships at 39, you don't have to give up that extra thousand. Make them give you the 40, because I'll buy it from them for 40, and if they don't know me, just get them on the phone with us and we'll. We'll buy it from them directly. I mean, we buy 100 cars a week. It's not. It's not like we're not gonna pay for Our cars. So.

[Caller Dennis]

Hey, Mr. Wolf. Same real quick. I love the show. I've been listening for, I'm guessing about four years or so. Very entertaining. Very. You've helped people out. Very knowledgeable. I called in one time and I. I told you I drove to a gym 30 minutes away.

[John Clay Wolf]

I remember that call.

[Caller Dennis]

I want to listen to your show. It's. It was very entertaining. I enjoyed it.

[John Clay Wolf]

And.

[Caller Dennis]

And again, that's why I called you, because. And the guy treated me very fair. He was really nice and he was concerned with my situation. So I want to say thank you. I love the show and I love all your antics. At the same time.

[John Clay Wolf]

We try to break it up. I mean, it'd be very easy to make this show very boring. There's people who have tried to knock us off. Turley. There's a guy in San Antonio that I know that's doing it right now. You know, hey, I'm gonna get my own radio show. And we're bid cars in the air. Well, that's great. Good luck. Yeah, no, they can do it. I mean, you know, professional car people can do what I do. If they're good. They're not as good as we are at it, but that's fine. They can pull it off good enough. But they. They get all geeked out into the cars and it like, it turns into a cooking show without any personality. Without Emerald's. Bam. And it doesn't work. I mean, it's just boring as hell. Makes you want to just, you know, shoot yourself in the head. And that's why they last three months worth. I want to entertain people first and then we get to the cars. But that's.

[Brad]

Do I tune in the first hour at 9 o'?

[John Clay Wolf]

Clock? Except today. Today sucked. I think it's just. Brett was here.

[Brad]

Why are you blaming Brett?

[John Clay Wolf]

I gotta blame it on somebody. Last week, JD Wasn't here and I figured we were gonna suck and we were fine. But this first hour, we sucked. I'm just starting to warm up. I gotta get in my groove. I gotta get my groove on. I got. I had too many drinks last night. I mixed my beer.

[Caller or Singer]

My gym.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Brad]

Beer engine mix.

[John Clay Wolf]

It just doesn't go good.

[Brad]

Gotta stay with one.

[John Clay Wolf]

So I didn't have the right edge this morning. Yeah, I mean, if I'm on a good beer hangover. Yeah, you're good to go.

[Brad]

Or gin. You can do it with gin.

[John Clay Wolf]

If I'm still like. It happens about three times a year. I come in s faced and I'm still hungover. From the night before. Those are good shows because I don't care what I say. And it's funny, but when I'm just hungover in an in betweener. Nah, that's what happened this morning. But it's wearing off. I'm coming back to life. Y' all call in now. 8008-0072-3480-0800 radio or go to givemethevend.com My name is John Clay Wolf on by cars right here on ESPN radio and in Louisiana, South Louisiana, ie.

Charlie, what do you. What are you gonna do for the Super Bowl? You know, I don't know.

[Brad]

I usually. I'll watch somebody's house. I'll have a little party, do those squares and make little bets on the side. And I don't think I'll be doing as much now since I made a dumb bet with you for $100. Yeah, I mean, I most probably should just give you the 100 now.

[John Clay Wolf]

Would you rather give me 50 now and we. And you back out? You think about that. I want to.

[Brad]

No, because I'd rather have some type of interest in the game.

[John Clay Wolf]

You know, there's always a hope.

[Brad]

There's, you know, that. Dumb and dumber.

[John Clay Wolf]

Yeah.

[Brad]

So you're saying there's a chance, right?

[John Clay Wolf]

So there's. You're saying there's a chance the Broncos can beat the Panthers?

[Brad]

I mean, it's slim to none, but, yes, there's always a chance.

[John Clay Wolf]

This is Peyton Manning's last game.

[Brad]

Yeah. Yes. Oh, for sure.

[John Clay Wolf]

Has he said that? He.

[Brad]

He didn't say it to the media, but he did. There's a conversation he had after the game with Bill Belichick and said, hey, this looks like it's my last rodeo.

[John Clay Wolf]

99 prowler. John, good morning. You're on the air.

[Caller Dennis]

Good morning. How are you?

[John Clay Wolf]

Good. Have you. This car sounds familiar. The guys asked me about one the other day. Is this yours? Have you already. Have you already?

[Brad]

Okay, red. Yeah, I know this one.

[John Clay Wolf]

So tell me. Catch me. Catch me up to speed. You went to givemetheven.com you put the car in, and then what happened happened.

[Caller Dennis]

They came back at like 22,000. I just was checking. That's kind of low, I thought for that, I mean. Okay, garage kept. It's got 7,000 original miles on it.

[John Clay Wolf]

Did they ask you the question that I always tell them to ask? Okay, you didn't like our offer. What does it take to buy the car?

[Caller Dennis]

I went back at 25.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so 25,000 buys the car. I'm looking it up. It's a red car. It's got 7,000 miles, right?

[Caller Dennis]

I think it's the last year. That's the last year that Plymouth made them, remember? But I'm just.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, so let's do this together. I'm going through the. The most. The last one that sold in the dealer world at an auction was 19,000 in Pensacola last August. It had 39,000 miles on it. No, 29,000 miles on is red. Then in DFW, where I am last May, there was. Here we go, Red. It says red. And it brought 23,000, had 8,000 miles on it. So that a car identical to your miles in color sold for 23 grand at a dealer auction. And remember, the buyer bought that for 23 grand and he paid a $300 buy fee and the seller paid a $300 selfie. And then he took that and tried to mark it up and make profit with it. Don't know if he's been successful or not. Here's another one, a 6,000 mile one a year ago, November 14th. I mean November 2014 in Philadelphia brought 22. 6 with 6,000 miles in black. So we're not lowballing you. That, that I know.

[Caller Dennis]

I mean that's what I was just checking. I'm not, I'm not trying to, you know, I was just. I was driving and I thought, you know, what the heck, I'll try it again. So I. So what you're saying, I think he came back at 22. 5 on that.

[Ryan]

That.

[Caller Dennis]

That's a pretty good number. You think the car.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, in. My manager just text, texted me he saw an O2 at Dallas Auto Auction Wednesday. Bring 22,000 with 14. I don't think. I think you're. Yes. I think you're given too much credit for the first year and the Plymouth because what we're seeing. But I think, you know. Yeah, I think 22. 5. I mean, I think we're on it. I really think we're trying. If I.

[Caller Dennis]

If I needed to know if I.

[John Clay Wolf]

Could make it work from your figure, I would in a heartbeat.

[Caller Dennis]

I know we make your managers. He sent me his number. Let me next couple days, I'll probably contact him back and maybe we'll do something with it. Like I said, I. Not that I need to sell the car. It's just sitting in my pool house. I hardly ever drive it, so it's kind of just going to waste really. So I still have his contact number. I will be contacting him Monday.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay. If what I want to know something. What are you going to. We hear that a lot. What are you going to do between now and Monday? Just so I understand how this works. Are you really. I'm going to put you back on the spot a little bit. So, I mean, do you want. You want to try to get your figure right? So you're going to keep shopping?

[Caller Dennis]

No, I mean, because I don't like that. I'm not one that want a lot of people coming in and out. I don't want to show the car. I mean, if I sell it, I Just want to sell the car. You put it on. On something else. I've got people calling and showing up every other day looking at it. I don't want to go through that.

[John Clay Wolf]

And they can't get financed.

[Caller Dennis]

Absolutely, I agree.

[John Clay Wolf]

Well, 23 grand. Will 23 grand buy the car right now and we're done?

[Caller Dennis]

Yeah.

[John Clay Wolf]

Okay, then we're done. Let's just do that. I don't know if I'm right or wrong, but I'd rather just. I would rather just buy it and be done with the Monday drama. And now I own a plymouth prowler with 7,000 miles. And one of two things are going to happen, John. I'm either going to make money or I'm going to lose money. But at least I'm on the table. I got my cards on the table and something's going to happen. We've made a market.

[Caller Dennis]

Pay that man.

[John Clay Wolf]

What is it, Turley? Pay him. Pay that man his money. Yeah, I mean, you know, and you guys never think I lose. I'm telling you, I lose all the time. And I may lose with this one, but I may make $1,000. I don't know. I'm a gambling man. But now I've got something to gamble with. So we're gonna try it. Thank you. Thank you. John. I'm gonna put you on hold and let Mike grab you. Hold on just a second. On 1-8008-0072-3480-0800-Radio. Tim, a 350,000 mile 03 Tahoe is worth a thousand bucks.
