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

Which car should win 2015 World Green Car of the Year?
Wed, Apr 1 2015There were three finalists for the World Green Car of the Year announced about a month ago at the Geneva Motor Show: the BMW i8, the Mercedes-Benz S 500 Plug-In Hybrid and the Volkswagen Golf GTE. With the New York Auto Show upon us and the winner scheduled to be announced tomorrow, we thought it's high time to ask our readers which one should win. There were seven other vehicles named to the finalists list: the Hyundai x35/Tucson Fuel Cell, the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, the Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron, the BMW X5 xDrive40e, the Kia Soul EV, the Nissan e-NV200 and the Opel Adam 1.0 Direct Injection Turbo ecoFLEX Start. Would you have named one of these to the top three list instead? POLL 14386429 Green BMW Mercedes-Benz Volkswagen 2015 ny auto show world green car of the year vw golf gte
2015 Volkswagen Golf R [w/video]
Mon, Nov 24 2014Volkswagen hired a photographer to come shoot the handful of journalists that it brought to drive the 2015 Golf R at Buttonwillow Raceway north of Los Angeles. This fact, though unremarkable in and of itself, was something I hadn't noticed until I was well into my track time – probably ten laps deep on a day that would see me run twice that number. In any event, I noticed the intrepid shooter as he was sprinting from one side of the track to the other somewhere before Turn 2, while I was barreling down the main straightaway, still looking through Turn 1. In the roughly two-mile configuration of the track that I drove, Buttonwillow is a big, wide-open circuit, largely flat and with excellent overall visibility. On that layout, and just hours into my Golf R experience, I'd already become confident in endeavoring to push the limits of VW's latest blistering hatch. In fact, the easy nature of driving the thing quickly had me overestimating my pace. So when I saw the photog sprint across the tarmac I instinctively slowed way too much, way too early for Turn 1. Looking back at the incident after I'd pitted for the session, I laughed at myself, knowing I'd have had to be driving almost double my actual speed to put the camera guy in any real danger of being hit. But the experience crystallized what my full test of the R bore out: this is a car that makes you feel much faster than you otherwise would, at least in a competition setting. The 2015 Golf R is an uber hatch that will flatter those hyper-enthusiasts passionate enough to splash out on its steep price tag, but without threatening sales of core models like the GTI and its ilk. That's a good thing for the VW fanboys, to be sure, and, I'd argue, a great thing for the strength of the German brand overall. {C} The R felt both placid and comfortable while I clicked off highway miles in search of the racetrack. My test in California had at least two things in common with the First Drive feature that Steve Ewing brought us with the Golf R in Sweden. First, we both drove European specification cars (though mine didn't suffer from the same sticker abuse that Steve's did). Second, we were both somewhat limited in terms of driving the car in varied, real-world situations. My street route consisted almost entirely of tracking California's I-5 north out of Los Angeles; which any Angelino will tell you is a less-than-riveting mode of travel.
