Dear CarPro Family,
Hello friends, I hope your week has been great and that you enjoyed President’s Day on Monday. We are in the final stretch of February and hopefully warmer temps wherever you are. March brings us the start of Daylight Saving Time on the 9th, then the official start to spring on the 20th.
DFW friends, the North Texas Auto Expo is going on now! This is the only auto show we’ll have in the DFW area this year except for the State Fair, there will not be one in Fort Worth, so don’t miss this show. We’ll be broadcasting live from the Expo TOMORROW, February 22, 2025 from 9 AM to 2 PM. Below you will find more info, the automakers that will be there, ticket prices, and show times. Come by and say hello to us!
You voted, and 98+% of you said you wanted me to continue the weekly Automotive News Roundup, so edition 2 is below.
In things you need to know, we have the J.D. Power Dependability Study that measures actual owners’ happiness with their car after 3-years of ownership. This is an outstanding study that you can draw real conclusions from. We also have the 15 most reliable new cars for the money, and another list of the best used and factory certified deals going on right now.
You can bid on a beautiful red Ferrari that used to be owned by President Trump. Also, VW teams up with Saturday Night Live to bring you the reprisal of a famous SNL bit, and to show you the new ID. Buzz bus. SUV lovers, the all-new 2026 Honda Passport is arriving at CarPro certified dealers right now and we tell you all about it.
Don’t miss Kim Komando’s Tech Tips & other useful info today. In advice, I give you everything you need to know about how to handle the end of a lease. This will help you make an informed decision on which way is right for you.
In car reviews, I had the beautiful 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack, an all-new entry into electric cars, and I loved it. In my lengthy review, I put the car into perspective and tell you what most auto reviewers are missing. You heard me right on the radio show last week, I am considering leasing one myself. Our Amy Plemons was tied up with the Auto Expo this week.
