Shoot us a Text.Episode #1112: Carvana's stock hits jaw-dropping highs while negative equity haunts car buyers. At the same time, a new report says Gen X may quietly be the most powerful consumer group of the next decade.Show Notes with links:What once seemed like a dying online used‑car startup has roared back. Carvana's share price hit an all‑time high in late July 2025—up over 10,000% from the December 2022 bottom—while short-sellers suffered nearly $7.42 billion in losses.Q2 2025 sales hit $4.84 billion, up 42% year-over-year. Retail units sold jumped 41% to 143,280; wholesale units rose 44.5% to 72,770.Net income surged to $308 million with record profit margins across the board.Traditional peers have seen modest stock gains by comparison — AutoNation is up about 80% and Lithia around 44% — with CarMax actually down roughly 7% in the same period.CEO Ernie Garcia III called Carvana “the fastest‑growing and most profitable automotive retailer.”“This rally…is one of the most spectacular recoveries in modern market history,” said Dave Mazza, CEO of Roundhill Financial.A growing share of U.S. car buyers are finding themselves stuck in negative equity, with Edmunds reporting the average underwater loan balance at $6,754 in Q2 2025 — one of the highest levels seen in years.26.6% of new‑car trade‑ins were upside down, a four‑year high.Average negative equity climbed to $6,754, up $500 from 2024.Nearly one in three underwater trade‑ins carried $5,000–$10,000 in debt.The average monthly payment for these buyers hit $915 — $159 above the industry average.Edmunds' Ivan Drury warns: “Many are at risk of getting stuck in a cycle of debt that only grows harder to break over time.”While millennials and Gen Z grab headlines, new research shows Gen X — those born between 1965 and 1980 — may be the most influential consumer group of the next decade.Gen X is set to remain the world's highest-spending demographic through 2033.In 2025 alone, they're projected to drive $507B in food and beverage sales, $80B in beauty, and $42B in alcohol.Nearly 40% use AI assistants for shopping recommendations, defying “tech-averse” stereotypes.72% prefer name brands over private label, bucking the store-brand trend.“Gen Xers are the gatekeepers of trillions in spending, effectively serving as the CFOs of three generations,” said Wolfgang Fengler of World Data Lab.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode, we unpack how the company went from near-bankruptcy to posting record profits.

Learn how to stop wasting money per lead on bad CTAs If you're spending thousands of dollars per lead and wondering why your landing pages aren't converting, this episode is for you. The marketing world is obsessed with fancy ads and perfect audiences, but here's what I know - most of the time, your biggest opportunity is sitting right there on your landing page. In this episode, I sat down with Sahil Patel to uncover the shocking truth about why common call-to-action buttons like "Request a Demo" are killing your conversions, and reveal the simple changes that can double your results. We talked about how B2B sales is heading for a massive disruption, just like how Tesla and Carvana completely changed car buying forever. Sahil Patel runs a company called Spiralize and this guy has the proof to back up everything he says. He's tested over 1,500 different websites with millions of visitors, so when he tells you what works and what doesn't, you should pay attention. What I love about Sahil is he doesn't just talk about fancy theories - he breaks down website stuff into simple tips that you can use right now. He shares helpful advice on LinkedIn four times a week, and his superpower is showing businesses exactly why their websites aren't making money and how to fix them today. KEY TAKEAWAYS: "Request a Demo" is the worst-performing call-to-action button because it sounds passive and reminds people they have to talk to a salesperson. "Get Started" and "Get a Demo" are the highest-converting CTAs because they're action-focused and don't feel like you're asking for something. Your landing page headline must match your ad copy exactly - if your ad says "cat food" but your page shows "dog food," people will leave immediately. Younger generations (Gen Z and Millennials) hate phone calls so much that B2B sales will shift toward self-service buying, just like Tesla and Carvana did for cars. You need at least 100 form submissions on each version of your test before you can trust the results and make changes. Shorter, more skimmable landing pages work better than long ones because people spend less than two minutes reading your page. AI can help you write faster first drafts of copy, but humans still need to refine it and create emotional hooks that connect with buyers. Having a therapist before you need one is critical for business leaders because running a company means living through constant ups and downs. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show.

Als Ernest Garcia III im Jahr 2012 gemeinsam mit zwei Mitstreitern Carvana gründet, will er den Autokauf revolutionieren vollständig digital, ganz ohne Händler, Papierkram und Verhandlungen. Nur wenige Jahre später zählt Carvana zu den größten Online-Gebrauchtwagenhändlern der USA. Doch der Weg dahin ist alles andere als geradlinig: Während der Corona-Pandemie steigt der Börsenwert auf über 60 Milliarden Dollar, nur um kurz darauf auf unter 1 Milliarde zu stürzen. Analysten prophezeien den Bankrott, die Presse erklärt das Unternehmen zur „schlechtesten Firma des Jahres“. Und dann gelingt das fast Unmögliche: Ein beeindruckender Turnaround. Mit radikalem Sparkurs, technologischem Feinschliff und strategischen Zukäufen schafft es Carvana nicht nur zurück in die Gewinnzone, sondern wird zu einem der profitabelsten Autohändler der USA.

Rob Haworth, senior investment strategist at U.S. Bank Asset Management, says that the volatility and headline risks of the first half of 2025 haven't changed the outlook for the market and economy, which can grind through the rest of the year and into 2026 with modest gains. Haworth acknowledges "a lot of questions still to be answered," but he says that most of the answers will be within degrees of expectations, and a lack of surprises should allow the market to grind higher. That said, Haworth said investors will want to be properly diversified to protect themselves against the volatility and the news risks. David Trainer of New Constructs puts Carvana back in The Danger Zone, noting that the stock — which he first singled out in April of 2019 — has roared back from a low of $4 per share in December 22 to gain more than 50 percent year-to-date and nearly 150 percent in the last year, rising to a stock valuation "that implies that Carvana will sell as many vehicles as General Motors." Plus Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at BankRate.com, on their latest survey research, which showed that 60 percent of Americans are uncomfortable with their current level of emergency savings, and half of Americans don't have enough emergency savings to cover three months' expenses.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1081: Today's episode sounds the alarm on EV shipping risks after a $560M shipwreck, dives into the dealer-driven defense of EV tax credits with Alex Lawrence at the helm, and bids farewell to Microsoft's iconic Blue Screen of Death.The June sinking of the Morning Midas cargo ship—loaded with Chinese EVs—has sparked serious concern across the shipping and auto industries. Estimated losses are pegged at $560 million, but the implications go far deeper.The ship was carrying 3,048 vehicles, including 750 EVs and hybrids, when it caught fire en route to Mexico.It's the third major EV ship incident in just over three years, bringing total damages from these disasters to nearly $1.8 billion.The fire's cause remains unknown, but experts say EVs increase the chance of thermal runaway turning into catastrophe.“This is a huge cost, and another blaring warning claxon to the industry,” said AEG CEO Patrick Anderson, pointing to the growing frequency of these incidents.Calls are growing for stricter EV shipping protocols—better fire detection, increased vehicle spacing, and limits on how many EVs can be transported per vessel.A coalition of 19 dealers including Carmax, Carvana, and Utah's EV Auto is urging the Senate to reconsider abrupt EV tax credit rollbacks. At the center of the push is Alex Lawrence, who's making a strong case for used EV affordability.Lawrence says converting the credit into a down payment changed everything for middle-class buyers.He argues that without it, many families couldn't qualify for financing or reliable transportation.Though confident in EV Auto's future, he warns a sudden end “would disrupt the used car market,” calling for a multi-year phase-out instead.The letter emphasized the vital role of the used EV rebate as “a bridge” for working-class Americans.At ASOTU Con last month, Alex quipped “I didn't realize when I got into the car business five and a half years ago I was getting into politics. But boy, did I ever.”Microsoft is officially phasing out one of the most recognizable (and dreaded) elements of the Windows experience: the Blue Screen of Death. After four decades, Windows crashes are getting a new look—and a new name.The classic BSOD will now become the “Black Screen of Death” in an upcoming Windows 11 update.The redesign ditches the frowny face and QR code in favor of a cleaner, more focused layout.The new format will show the stop code and faulty driver right on screen, simplifying diagnosis for IT teams.The update is part of broader efforts to boost Windows 11 stability, especially after last year's CrowdStrike-related crash wave.“This is really an attempt on clarity and providing better information so we can fix it faster.” says David Weston, Microsoft's VP of Enterprise and OS SecurJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

While credit access improved in May and vehicle prices were steady, affordability remained a concern, especially for credit-challenged consumers who face multiple forms of debt. The Dealertrack Credit Availability Index increased 2% year over year in May to 96.7 as credit unions and banks loosened standards and approval rates improved. At the same time, the average new-vehicle transaction price ticked up 1% YoY but was nearly flat month over month at $48,799. But as student loan payments resume and that debt is again reported to credit reporting agencies, some nonprime borrowers are turning to credit-builder loans and buy now, pay later programs to improve their credit history and finance downpayments for vehicle purchases. Meanwhile, in one of the first actions since the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau undertook a more limited approach to supervision under the new administration, the California State Senate passed a bill that would allow dealers to increase document fees to a maximum of $500. The current processing charges, in effect since 2019, are $85 for new cars and $70 for used cars. The change would align the state's processing fees with that of other states but has received backlash from some consumer advocacy groups that claim the uptick is another “junk fee.” In other news, Arra Finance acquired Crescent Bank's $815 million auto portfolio and plans to grow originations by leveraging the bank's technology stack and dealer base. Other auto finance companies have also seen growth in the first part of the year, including Carvana and Global Lending Services. In this episode of “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss trends in affordability and compliance along with company updates for the week ended June 13.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1054: We're kicking off Tuesday week with a look at surging used car sales and shrinking supply, BYD's aggressive EV price cuts in China, and a Waffle House partnership that brings hash browns and high-speed charging together in the South.Show Notes with links:Automotive News released its top Used Car retailers list showing that the stabilizing of the 2024 market led to some big gains. However, the current complexities and quickly shrinking market day supply is testing even the best players.Used-only dealers like CarMax, Carvana, and DriveTime saw strong 2024 growth as supply chains normalized, with Carvana up 33% year-over-year.Dealers are creatively sourcing inventory—prioritizing trade-ins and direct-from-customer purchases to avoid costly auctions.The current used vehicle supply stands at just a 43-day market supply, the lowest since 2021, with lower-price vehicles hardest to find.Tariff fears have driven consumers to buy quickly, pushing prices for the top 50 used models to an average of nearly $29,000“There isn't a lot of room for error anymore in the post-COVID used-car world,” said Bill Solko, dealer principal of Automotive Avenues.Meanwhile Cox Automotive's Jonathan Smoke warned, 2025 is going to be a roller coaster for this industry,” BYD just launched a fresh round of EV price cuts in China, triggering a market shake-up that's pummeling stocks and ramping pressure on rivals like Tesla.BYD slashed prices across several models, including a 20% cut on the sub-$10,000 Seagull hatchback now priced at an equivalent of $7,780The Chinese EV market is nearing 50% penetration — five times the U.S. rate — largely due to aggressive pricing strategies.EV maker stocks, including BYD, Li Auto, and Geely, fell sharply after the announcement, signaling investor anxiety.BYD's growing profit cushion from 2019–2024 gives it room to undercut less profitable competitors.“This new price war will put even more pressure on Tesla,” Electrek reported, especially as new players like Xiaomi ramp up.In a match made in Southern heaven, bp pulse and Waffle House are joining forces to bring 400kW ultrafast EV charging to your next roadside breakfast stop.Starting in 2026, Waffle House locations across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and beyond will host six-bay charging stations.The chargers will support both CCS and NACS connectors and deliver up to 200 miles of range in about 15 minutes.The 24/7 diner vibe adds much-needed comfort and reliability to the EV charging experience.This builds on bp pulse's growing U.S. network, which includes partnerships with Hertz and 8,000+ retail locations.“Charging up while fueling up on an All-Star Special will be convenient and fast,” said Waffle House Innovation Director David Repp.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1039: Today we're talking about Carvana's record-setting quarter and bold new goal, Ford's strategic price hikes post-tariffs, and why Google's stock took a beating after an Apple exec dropped a courtroom AI bomb.Show Notes with links:Carvana has bounced back in a major way, setting a new quarterly record for used-vehicle sales and showcasing the company's transformation from high-growth chaos to sustainable profitability, even amid looming tariff concerns.Q1 retail sales hit 133,898 units, up 46% year over year—beating their prior record by 16,000 vehicles.Net income reached $373M; revenue surged 38% to $4.2B.Tariffs caused a temporary demand bump, but Carvana is now focused on adapting inventory to price-sensitive consumer behavior.Carvana aims to sell 3 million vehicles annually within 5–10 years, targeting a 13.5% adjusted EBITDA margin by fully utilizing its existing infrastructure like ADESA megasites and inspection centers.CEO Ernie Garcia emphasized flexibility: “We've got significant margin to work with… and significant cash balances.”As the auto industry adjusts to newly announced tariffs, Ford is selectively increasing prices on several 2025 models while shielding current dealer inventory.Starting May 2, 2025 Mavericks, Bronco Sports, and Mach-Es (all produced in Mexico) will see MSRP increases of $600–$2,000, depending on trim and features.Existing stock and vehicles already in transit will keep their original sticker prices.Earlier this week, Ford withdrew its 2025 outlook, citing $1.5B in expected tariff-related earnings impact.Ford is one of the first major automakers to publicly respond to the impact of the tariffs with pricing strategy.“We can't forecast what we can't see,” said one executive privatelyIn a courtroom twist, an Apple executive may have confirmed Google's worst fear—that AI is starting to eat into its search dominance.Eddy Cue, Apple's services chief, testified that Safari searches dipped in April for the first time ever, likely due to users turning to AI tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity.Cue expects Apple will eventually add AI search engines as user-selectable options in Safari.The revelation came during Google's antitrust trial, where Apple disclosed it receives over $20B annually to keep Google the default.Google stock fell more than 7% following Cue's testimony, wiping out tens of billions in market cap. They responded by saying “we continue to see overall query growth,” especially from Apple platforms.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Likefolio's Landon Swan says the used car business is “not for the faint of heart.” With Carvana (CVNA) only holding 1% of the market, he sees a lot of room to expand. He shares Likefolio's consumer sentiment data, comparing it favorably to CarMax (KMX). However, he thinks the stock is priced “almost to perfection,” pushing him to the sidelines.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
My guest today is Cliff Sosin. Cliff is the founder of CAS Investment Partners, a fund he started with $5 million in 2012 and has grown to $1.7 billion as of the last reported numbers at the end of 2024. At the time, CAS had only four positions. This conversation is different to our typical episodes. We start by talking about Cliff's investing philosophy but the bulk of this long discussion is a case study into his remarkable investment in Carvana. Cliff is one of the biggest investors in the business, which had a market cap over $60 billion in 2021, then fell 99%, survived, and now has a market cap approaching $50 billion again. While I hosted Carvana's CEO, Ernie Garcia, last year to get the inside perspective on managing through such turbulence, today we hear the investor's side of this extraordinary story. It is a singular episode and there are so many lessons in this rare opportunity to hear a major investor describe his decision-making process at every stage of the journey. Please enjoy my great conversation with Cliff Sosin.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1027: Lithia leans into affordability while breaking records despite tariffs. Carvana boosts its reconditioning game in Colorado. And Chipotle turns up the charm, teaching 3,800 teams to smile their way to better hospitality.Show Notes with links:While tariffs loom over the auto industry, Lithia Motors is leaning into its diversified strategy and breaking financial records. CEO Bryan DeBoer says the dealership giant is uniquely positioned to ride out the storm.Roughly 45% of Lithia's inventory isn't impacted by current tariffs, providing a significant buffer.The company posted a record $9.2 billion in Q1 revenue (up 7.2%) and $211.2 million in net income (up 28%).Lithia's emphasis on affordability, including older used vehicles, has strengthened its market position.With parts prices rising, DeBoer stressed the importance of matching pricing with competitors like Jiffy Lube and AutoZone, while offering both OEM and aftermarket parts.“With tariffs, we sit quite nicely,” said DeBoer, calling Lithia “probably the most diversified and least impacted” of the major retailers.Carvana is expanding its operational footprint in a big way, bringing inspection and reconditioning (IRC) services to its Colorado Springs ADESA auction site—marking its eighth national Megasite.The new Megasite in Fountain, CO spans 50 acres. It supports both retail recon and wholesale auction needs and will create 100 new jobs.With added IRC capacity, Carvana can offer more inventory and speed up delivery times for local buyers.This move enhances Carvana's recon and fulfillment network, bringing vehicles to market more efficiently.“This integration will bring a wider selection of vehicles with quick shipping times to local retail customers, and provide a more robust offering for local wholesale customers,” said Brian Boyd, SVP of Inventory.A customer study revealed Chipotle lacked friendliness and cleanliness, especially during peak hours so CEO Scott Boatwright has announced a new hospitality push including smiling staff, cleaner dining areas, and better on-site issue recovery.Every employee is now coached to greet customers with a smile at the tortilla station and end transactions with a heartfelt thank you, reinforcing a culture of warmth without slowing operations.Staff across all 3,800+ restaurants have been trained on “exceptional hospitality” standards.Despite a dip in transactions, Q1 sales were up 6.4% to $2.9 billion—driven by new locations.“The fact is, smiles down the line don't slow us down,” said Boatwright.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
Today's guest is Neil Mehta, founder of Greenoaks Capital. In 2012, aged 27, Neil left D.E. Shaw to start Greenoaks with his friend Benny Peretz. One of their first investments was in Coupang, a South Korean e-commerce company led by founder Bom Kim. Neil was so convinced of Coupang's potential that he invested 40% of their initial $50 million fund into the company—a bet that eventually returned about $8 billion. Over its first 13 years, Greenoaks has backed legendary companies like Figma, Wiz, Carvana, Stripe, Discord, Rippling, and Toast—generating over $13 billion in gross profits with a 33% net IRR. Henry Kravis, one of Neil's early investors, describes him as "extremely disciplined" with "exceptional timing" who has "gone against the tide many times." Greenoaks operates with remarkable concentration: just 55 core companies across nearly $15 billion in assets, managed by only nine investment professionals. Their approach reflects their singular pursuit: finding companies that will become a meaningful part of the S&P 500. In our wide-ranging conversation, Neil shares this mission along with his framework for identifying exceptional founders, his concept of "jaw-dropping customer experiences," and how his grandfather's gun shop in India shaped his appreciation for builders of all kinds.

Ernest Garcia is the Co-Founder and CEO @ Carvana. Under Ernie's leadership, Carvana went from a back-of-the-napkin idea to a $50+ billion public company, became the fastest-growing online used car retailer in U.S. history, and landed on the Fortune 500 in under 10 years. However, it was not all up and to the right, in 2022, the stock plummeted 99% to a market cap of just $400M. Today they are back with a market cap of $35BN, that is a 100x in the public markets and selling 400,000 cars sold annually, with a logistics network that rivals Amazon.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1009: Today we sit with COO of Matthews Auto Group Vincent Salvagni to discuss the question on every Dealer's mind; What should I be doing with my inventory level? As consumers rush to beat tariffs, Dealers are worried about overpaying for replacement inventory and getting stuck holding the bag when things normalize. We also talk about Nissan delaying production cuts at its Smyrna, TN plant and Carvana's approach to the tariff headwinds. Show Notes with links:Nissan's plans to cut a production shift at its Smyrna, TN plant have been reversed thanks to new U.S. tariffs on imported vehicles. The automaker is prioritizing domestic output to avoid hefty import duties.Nissan initially planned to end a shift at Smyrna as part of a 9,000-job global cut.Keeping U.S. production high avoids tariffs on Japanese-made Rogues, which made up over a third of 2024 U.S. Rogue sales.Workers had already been offered buyouts; Nissan hasn't confirmed how many accepted.“It could mean saving jobs or it could be hiring people,” said a Nissan spokesperson.Carvana is stepping into the tariff era with confidence, positioning itself to capture increased used-car demand as new vehicle prices rise. After turbulent years marked by overestimation and investor skepticism, the company has streamlined operations and could now benefit from changing consumer habits.New 25% tariffs on imported vehicles may steer price-conscious buyers to the used market.Analysts expect an initial bump in used-car sales, especially from buyers priced out of new models.Carvana has reined in costs, insourced inspections, and restructured debt, improving operational health.Despite holding $5.6B in debt, the company is now generating enough cash to begin self-financing.“We're in a much stronger position than we were 3–4 years ago,” said CFO Mark JenkinsJoin hosts Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

It's a new week and spring is in the air! Well, at least it feels that way for the Car Mom... Before you know it though it will be summer and you have to figure out what to do with your kids while school is out. That is currently the journey Kelly is on as she decides if she wants to send them to daycare or camp. Unfortunately, there is no Camp Phineas and Ferb like the one the ladies ran when they were kids. That's right, Kelly and Lizz ran their own week long summer camp when they were teenagers made them some bank! Could this be your side hustle this summer? Speaking of things from the Disney universe, neither Kelly or Lizz have ever been to a Disney park but they feel like they could be Disney adults. They're both into the Disney adult content creators and have a love for the High School Musical soundtrack. Maybe one day? Lent starts this week and Kelly and Lizz are getting ready to give something up for the next 40 days. This year not only are they giving something up, but they want to do something to better themselves before Good Friday. But the real best of lent season? The fish fry!! It's been a while since Kelly and Lizz checked in with their bank accounts for Last Three Transactions. Kelly is getting ready for a family trip to Arizona by stocking up on Tea Collection clothes for the kids and lots of activities and toys for the plane. Plus, she got some Crocs for herself and she's very excited about it! Meanwhile, Lizz has had her life completely changed thanks to the Haakaa breast pump and the Athleta pale yellow collection. There are two juicy stories in Industry News. First, Carvana is making moves into the franchise business with the purchase of a Stellantis store. Then, why the Honda and Nissan merger may be donezo! Finally, as we head into Lent a quick reminder of a solid Ditch the Drive-Thru favorite. If fish will be a staple for you the next 40 days, it's time to break out the salmon sushi bowl recipe!
