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

Translogic 164: Driving the fuel cell vehicles of the 2014 LA Auto Show
Wed, Nov 26 2014The LA Auto Show is known for its environmentally friendly vehicle debuts. At last year's show, hydrogen fuel cell concepts from Honda and Toyota joined a lease-ready Hyundai Tucson FCEV to cast a green hue over the convention center. This year, automakers took us a step closer to a fuel cell future by offering drives of their hydrogen-electric hybrids. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley takes a ride in the Toyota Mirai, which is headed for production in 2016. He follows that with a spin in the Volkswagen Passat HyMotion and the Audi A7 Sportback h-tron quattro concept. Which of these fuel cell vehicles holds the most promise? Tune in to find out.

2015 VW e-Golf coming to ZEV states for $35,445* this November
Mon, Aug 25 2014Is $6,465 too much to get someone thinking about buying a Nissan Leaf to opt for the Volkswagen e-Golf instead? That's the price difference between the current EV sales champion, which now starts at $28,980, and the just-announced price for the e-Golf, which will sell for $35,445 in the US when it arrives in about ten states (basically, the ZEV states that follow California's lead in zero-emission vehicle rules) this November and will qualify for the federal tax credit of up to $7,500. VW says that the extra money will get you "the most versatile electric vehicle in its class." There is only one trim line, the SEL Premium, which will be the first VW in the US with all-LED headlights. The car's powertrain numbers pretty much match the Nissan Leaf, though. The e-Golf has a 24.2-kWh lithium-ion battery (the Leaf has a 24-kWh pack) and a 115-hp, 199-pound foot electric motor (107 hp,187 lb-ft in the Leaf). The e-Golf's official EPA numbers are not yet available, but VW says it will have an "average range between 70 and 90 miles." The Leaf has an official EPA range of 84 miles. The e-Golf has a better onboard charger – 7.2 kW vs. 3.6 or 6.6, depending on your Leaf's options – and has SAE Combo fast charging capability as standard. VW is also working with 3Degrees to offset all of the emissions "created from production, distribution and charging of the e-Golf for up to approximately 36,000 miles of driving." VW also announced prices for its lightly facelifted 2015 Jetta today. The base model, the 2.0-liter S with a manual transmission, starts at $17,325 while the top-of-the-line model, the Hybrid SEL Premium, will set you back at least $31,670. The lowest-cost TDI is the S manual, which starts at $21,640 and features VW's new 2.0-liter diesel four. A new limited-edition 1.8 Sport model with a firmer suspension, tinted taillamps and rear spoiler starts at $20,895. All VW prices listed exclude VW's *$820 destination charge and you can find all the details on trim lines in the press releases below.
1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool
Tue, 04 Jun 2013There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
