The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1186: Dealerships are investing big in mobile service as customer demand and capacity challenges make on-the-go repairs a serious growth opportunity. France launches the world's first live EV-charging highway, while new data shows holiday shoppers are blending online convenience with a strong return to in-store experiences.Show Notes with links:As consumers crave convenience and service bays become scarce, dealerships are rethinking what “fixed ops” means. Bozard Ford-Lincoln's Ed Roberts has shown what success looks like: 46 mobile units, 43 techs, and $10 million in annual revenue. “Everything you can do in a shop without a lift can be done in the field,” Roberts said.The mobile repair segment grew 15% in 2024—nearly twice the growth of the overall “do-it-for-me” market—according to the Lang Aftermarket Report.Industry analysts predict mobile service will soon be an OEM standard, driven by capacity shortages, customer demand, and the undeniable appeal of “winning driveways.”Apple Tree Honda and Acura in North Carolina now run three Ford Transit vans daily, tackling maintenance and light repairs for customers who'd rather not come in.Fixed Ops Director Richard Lupo built the program from the ground up, using Urban Science data to pinpoint customers they weren't reaching—and consultants like Spiffy to scale operations efficiently.In a world first, France has flipped the switch on a stretch of highway that wirelessly charges EVs as they drive. The A10 motorway near Paris now delivers real-time power to vehicles in motion—potentially redefining how we think about range and charging altogether.VINCI Autoroutes and Electreon embedded coils beneath 1.5 km of roadway for the “Charge as You Drive” project.The inductive system hits peak power above 300 kW, verified by independent labs.Vehicles including a truck, van, bus, and car are already charging while cruising in live traffic.Even in an age of scrolling and swiping, shoppers still want to see, touch, and feel the holidays. Two new studies—from NIQ and Quad/Harris Poll—show consumers are going omnichannel, but physical retail and print are far from dead.66% of shoppers plan to browse online, but 64% will visit stores—and nearly 3 in 4 say in-store shopping gets them into the holiday spirit.76% of Americans see visiting stores as a holiday ritual, and 66% say their favorite gifts came from unexpected in-store finds.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:52 Edge Webinar this Wednesday1:25 Early Adopters Are Pushing Mobile Service Forward2:43 Richard Lupo of Apple Tree Honda and Acura joins the show9:39 France Launches 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/
This week on the show I share a case study on a 2017 Chevrolet Malibu. Not charging, no power steering, idle surging, stalling at idle, no heated seats or rear defrost... All this and NO codes anywhere. A strange problem for sure, but it seems oddly familiar to a vehicle I diagnosed back in 2020.

Podcast Notes Episode 489 Three Myths about Charging for Coaching (Rebroadcast) Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC and Chad Hall, MCC Date: October 30, 2025 In this episode, Brian and Chad unpack three common myths that hold coaches back from confidently charging for their services. Drawing from years of training and mentoring coaches, they discuss the internal beliefs and mindset barriers around money—especially within Christian coaching circles—and offer practical ways to build confidence, communicate value, and stop underselling the impact of coaching. Key Highlights The myth that "people can't afford coaching" often reflects a coach's own limiting beliefs rather than reality. Undervaluing yourself or the coaching process can prevent you from confidently seeking clients. Coaches often project their own financial limitations onto others, assuming clients can't or won't invest. Paying for your own coaching helps reinforce belief in its value and gives you firsthand credibility. Lowering prices rarely leads to better traction—it can confuse potential clients and devalue your offering. Takeaways Challenge your assumptions about what others can afford; avoid saying "no" on their behalf. Invest in your own coaching experience to build conviction and authenticity when selling. Recognize that coaching is about outcomes and transformation, not just the session time. Maintain pricing integrity—confidence and clarity communicate value better than discounts.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1181: Today we're talking about an EV market hitting the brakes post–tax credit, why most electric drivers are just fine charging at home, and Amazon's billion-dollar bet on future jobs—while cutting tens of thousands of its own.Show Notes with links:The EV market is undergoing a “recalibration” following the end of the federal $7,500 tax credit. J.D. Power says October electric vehicle deliveries are expected to drop 43% from last year, taking EV market share from 8.5% down to just 5.2%.The September “last call” for the credit pushed EV share to nearly 13%, creating a hangover in October sales.Gasoline models now account for nearly 80% of retail sales, while hybrids jumped two full points to 14%J.D. Power's Tyson Jominy. “The recent EV market correction underscores a critical lesson: Consumers prefer having access to a range of powertrain options.”Do you imagine EV drivers are circling parking lots hunting for chargers? Think again. About 80% of all EV charging happens right at home — quietly, conveniently, and far cheaper than fueling up at a gas pump.The International Energy Agency reports 83% of EV charging in the U.S. and 80% in Canada happens at home.J.D. Power's EV Experience Study shows drivers rate home charging satisfaction at 85/100 versus just 50/100 for public chargers.“Home charging remains the single biggest advantage of owning an EV,” said Brent Gruber, executive director of EV practice at J.D. Power.Amazon is sending a mixed message to the labor market this week. The tech giant is investing billions to train millions for the “future of work” — while preparing to lay off tens of thousands of its own.The company launched Future Ready 2030, a $2.5 billion initiative aimed at training 50 million employees, students, and job seekers worldwide.At the same time, Amazon is reportedly cutting up to 30,000 corporate jobs, about 10% of its white-collar workforce — its largest round of layoffs since 2022.“Whether someone dreams of working at Amazon, works here now, or has moved on to their next chapter, our goal is the same: helping them have access to the education and training needed to thrive in whatever comes next,” said Beth Galetti, Amazon's SVP of People Experience and Technology.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:15 Paul's hat from Kazakhstan2:05 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with foureyes on Nov. 53:00 EV Market Hits Recalibration in October6:17 83% of American EV Drivers Charge At Home9:42 Amazon Invests $2.5B In Training, Cuts 30K White-Collar JobsJoin 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 Episode 283 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy breaks down one of the toughest truths in business: why free almost always fails. Drawing on lessons from early mentor Kevin Pydde and his own entrepreneurial journey, Kelly explores how undercharging and giving too much away can quietly destroy your business. He shares the mindset and pricing framework that helped him build Capital Business Development and The Business Development Podcast from the ground up, teaching that consistent, predictable revenue, not commissions or goodwill, sustains long-term success.Kelly also exposes the hidden cost of free, showing why clients who don't pay rarely commit or transform. From coaching to community building, he reveals that every time you remove the price tag, you remove the value. This episode is a wake-up call for entrepreneurs and creators alike: if you want your work to matter, you have to charge for it. Because in the end, free isn't generosity, it's a loss for everyone.Key Takeaways: 1. You have to look after your family first, your business second, and yourself third because everything is interconnected.2. Consistent, predictable revenue keeps a business alive while commissions are just pennies from heaven.3. Know your real costs because your time is only a fraction of what it truly takes to run your business.4. Price for value, not hours, since clients pay for results and outcomes, not time spent.5. Confidence in your pricing is essential because the first sale you make is always to yourself.6. Free almost always fails because when people do not pay, they do not show up or commit.7. A token price beats no price since even a small investment creates ownership and engagement.8. Free is not generosity because it devalues your work and trains others to undervalue it too.9. Discount strategically, not emotionally, by rewarding loyalty or early adoption, never desperation.10. Charging fairly is not selfish because it builds the foundation that allows you to create real impact.Building a business can be lonely, especially when it feels like no one around you truly understands the pressure, the grind, or the dreams that drive you. That's why I created The Catalyst Club — a private community where entrepreneurs, leaders, and professionals connect with peers who actually get it.Inside The Catalyst Club, you'll find genuine support from people walking the same path. We share wins, tackle challenges, and grow together through weekly live events like Coffee with Rockstars, Catalyst Sessions, and Workshops. It's real conversation, accountability, and encouragement from people who know what it takes to build something meaningful.If you're ready to stop doing it alone and start growing alongside others who understand the journey, join us today at KellyKennedyOfficial.com/thecatalystclub. Because success feels lighter when you're surrounded by people who carry the same fire.

295: Avoiding Common Mistakes When Charging Premium Rates Raising your prices can feel like a bold move—but what happens when your premium rates don't deliver the results you expected? In this episode, we're uncovering the most common mistakes entrepreneurs and service-based professionals make when charging high-end prices. Learn how to identify the gaps in your pricing strategy, communicate your value effectively, and attract clients who are ready to invest at your level. If you've ever wondered why your premium pricing isn't landing the way it should, this conversation will show you exactly how to fix it. Topics Mentioned: Profitability Premium Value Brand Alignment Strategic Pricing and Brand Differentiation Key Thoughts: Align premium rates with premium outcomes. Value must match the pricing. Align your brand identity, messaging and presentation with the premium pricing to avoid client distrust. When pricing and brand and value alignment is done well you will not feel the need to apologize or over explain the cost. Target a specific audience instead of trying to appeal to everyone. Create transparency in your pricing and billing practices with open and clear communication.

Charging $2,500 for branding might feel safe, but it's actually the reason so many designers stay stuck.

Originally from Uruguay and now based in Madison, WI, Matias helps cities and organizations connect with underheard voices. He reminds us that progress isn't just technological—it's social. Without infrastructure, access, and inclusion, adoption doesn't happen.EVs, he argues, are a mirror for how we build systems: Who benefits, who's left out, and who gets a say?TL;DR* Equity first: EV access must include every neighborhood, not just the affluent.* Infrastructure gap: Charging deserts echo old redlining patterns.* Ethical supply: Sustainable batteries require fair labor, not just clean tech.* Density wins: Transit, walkability, and urban design matter more than suburban car swaps.* Trust gap: People don't adopt systems they don't feel included in.Memorable lines* “We'll buy in when it's built for everyone.”* “You can't be in community while there's smoke. When the air clears, connection starts again.”* “Electric cars don't build trust—people do.”Guest: Matias Lemos Castillo — Founder, MLC ConsultingLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mlemoscastillo/Website: https://consultantmlc.com/Why it mattersEV adoption is a trust story wrapped in a tech story. Until cities design for inclusion, access, and connection, the real revolution won't be electric—it'll be community-powered.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1167: GM kills its creative EV tax credit plan while Ford plays coy, the Chevy Bolt returns faster and cheaper than ever, and three Nissan dealers take their high-mileage heroes on a 1,500-mile proving ground through the American West.General Motors has scrapped a short-lived plan that would have allowed dealers to keep offering a $7,500 federal EV lease credit after the subsidy expired on September 30. The move follows political pushback and dealer uncertainty around compliance.GM's plan involved having GM Financial buy EVs from dealer inventory, claim the federal credit, and pass the savings into leases through the end of 2024.GM had already begun funding incentives on about 20,000 EVs, with 5% down payments made on those vehicles prior to September 30.The program was meant to help dealers avoid being stuck with higher-priced EVs post-credit, but Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH), a former dealer, objected to the move, calling it an overreach beyond the law's expiration. GM ended the plan shortly after.Ford rolled out a similar workaround ahead of the credit's expiration but has declined to confirm whether it plans to continue offering the lease incentives.At a “Bolt Block Party” at Universal Studios Hollywood, GM has officially reintroduced the Chevy Bolt, its beloved affordable EV.The new Bolt gains GM's Ultium 65kWh LFP battery for faster charging, improved range, and bidirectional home power support.Charging now jumps to 150kW (10–80% in 26 minutes) — triple the previous speed — with 255 miles of range and Tesla's NACS port for Supercharger access.The interior gets a bigger screen, refreshed materials and GM's SuperCruise driver assist with lane-changing “route following.”Pricing starts at just under $29K, making it the cheapest announced EV in the U.S., with production starting in early 2026.The only controversy? No more Apple CarPlay or Android Auto — GM is betting on its new in-house infotainment instead.Three Nissan dealers traded in their desks for desert dust, road-tripping 1,500 miles across the American West in three used Nissans — all over 100K miles and under $10K — to prove the brand's reliability and shake up customer perceptions.The “Tour Detour” YouTube series follows the group's off-road trek through salt flats, canyons, dunes, and mountain passes in two Muranos and a Juke.Dealers Tim Pohanka, Chris Lenckosz, and Jason Cole financed and drove the cars themselves, documenting every gritty mile.The goal: to challenge Nissan's reputation around “continuously variable transmissions” durability and show that even high-mileage models can take a beating.“We bought the cars ourselves and pushed them through the toughest roads in the West,” said Pohanka. “We wanted them to earn our trust — and our customeJoin 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/

The bull is charging into the evening sky. Taurus is in full view by about 11 o’clock, low in the east. He stands high in the south before dawn. He’s rising earlier each night, and will be in view all night long by about Thanksgiving. All the stars rise four minutes earlier each night – a result of Earth’s motion around the Sun. Earth makes one full turn on its axis against the background of distant stars every 23 hours and 56 minutes. So, if you looked at the sky every 23 hours and 56 minutes, and you could see through the daytime glare, you’d always see the same stars in the same position. But during that period, Earth moves along its orbit around the Sun. The distance it covers means the planet has to turn four extra minutes for the Sun to reach the same position in the sky. That makes a day 24 hours long. And it also means that the background stars rise and set four minutes earlier on our 24-hour clock. As a result, every star and constellation is in prime evening view at different times of the year. For Taurus, it’s fall and early winter – the time the bull charges across the evening sky. For now, look for Taurus beginning in late evening. Its brightest star is Aldebaran, the bull’s eye. His face is outlined by a V-shaped pattern of stars to the upper right of Aldebaran. And his shoulder is the sparkly little Pleiades star cluster, well above Aldebaran. More about Taurus tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1164: Today we're talking America's EV charging boom just as electric sales cool, previewing Tesla's October tease for a cheaper Model Y, and diving headfirst into Sora 2.Show Notes with links:Just as EV sales start to sputter, America's charging network is finally finding its rhythm. After years of false starts and government delays, billions in private investment and public funding have sparked a nationwide buildout—making it easier than ever to find a fast charger, even if fewer drivers need one.EV sales are projected to drop 25% next quarter after the expiration of the $7,500 federal tax credit.The number of U.S. fast-charging ports has jumped 80% in two years to more than 60,000.Private companies and retailers like Walmart have poured over $9.5 billion into new charging sites since late 2023.“Charging deserts” are slowly disappearing, but reliability issues and software hiccups still frustrate some EV owners.“The charging industry is really maturing at a time when the rest of the EV industry is in this period of uncertainty,” said Nick Nigro, founder of Atlas Public Policy.Tesla is teasing an October 7 reveal, sparking investor excitement about what could be its long-awaited affordable EV. With slowing sales, an aging lineup, and the loss of federal tax credits, the Elon Musk-led automaker is hoping a lower-cost Model Y can recharge its momentum—and Wall Street's faith.Tesla released a nine-second teaser video on X showing illuminated headlights and the date “10/7.”The new vehicle is expected to be a lower-cost Model Y, roughly 20% cheaper to produce than the refreshed version.Tesla plans to scale production to 250,000 units annually in the U.S. by 2026.Analysts project deliveries could hit 1.85 million vehicles next year, with the new model driving growth.“Tesla has to prove it can stay exciting without the tax credit boost—and this new model may be its best shot,” one analyst said.OpenAI's new app Sora 2 has exploded to the top of the App Store, blurring the line between creation and chaos. Part TikTok, part AI video generator, and part deepfake machine, it's turning anyone with a phone into a filmmaker — and sending media pros into existential meltdown.Sora 2 is being called “ChatGPT for creativity,” letting users star in AI-generated short videos.The app quickly hit #1 in the U.S. App Store and follows Meta's competing “Vibes” AI video feed.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier0:45 Congrats to Nashville SC on winning the US Open Cup1:49 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with Uber for Business3:04 US Fast Charger Number Grows to 60K6:11 Tesla Teases October 7 Reveal9:22 Sora 2 Climbs To #1 On theJoin 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/

Overall, the company's 2025 sales are up 10%, with GM touting its lineup as the strongest it's ever had for both combustion and electric models. CHEVROLET EQUINOX EV RISES TO SECOND IN EV SALES The Chevrolet Equinox EV is the top-selling non-Tesla electric vehicle in the U.S., with over 25,000 Q3 sales and 52,834 for the year so far.

HYUNDAI SEPTEMBER SALES SEE EV GROWTH, IONIQ 5 RECORDS Hyundai posted a 14% rise in U.S. sales in September 2025, with the IONIQ 5 achieving a September record and EV sales up 153% year-over-year.
