One of the biggest mistakes in car shopping can happen before you ever step onto a dealership lot.

You pick the answer before you've clearly defined the problem. "I need a RAV4." "I need a Telluride." "I need a Palisade." Maybe. But first, tell me what you're asking the car to do.

Seventy-mile commute? Three kids? Parents who need to get in and out easily? Keeping it ten years? Need real cargo space? Have a hard budget ceiling?

Start with three things. Your must-haves. Your budget. Your primary use. Then find the vehicles that solve those problems.

Don't start with the badge. Start with the job.

Send me those three things and I'll tell you where I'd start looking.

If you've got 37 car-shopping tabs open right now, I may know why you're more confused than when you started.

This one's $900 cheaper. That one's got 8,000 fewer miles. This one's Certified. That's a higher trim. This one's three hours away. And somehow you're trying to compare all of them like they're the same car. They're not.

The internet gives you more options. It doesn't automatically give you more clarity.

Start by comparing three things. Does it fit what you need? What's the condition and history? And what are you actually getting for the money? Then worry about the smaller differences.

Now be honest. How many tabs do you have open right now?

Here's something you probably don't expect your salesperson to say: you might be buying too much car.

The loaded trim always looks great. Bigger wheels, premium audio, panoramic roof. But do you actually care about any of it?

My job isn't figuring out the most car I can sell you. It's helping you figure out how much car actually makes sense for you. Sometimes that's the loaded one. Sometimes it isn't.

Buy the car you'll value, not the features you can afford.

If you want a car salesperson who agrees with everything you say, I'm probably not your guy.

Some conversations aren't easy. But my job isn't to tell you what you want to hear so I can sell you a car. My job is to tell you what I believe you need to know so you can make a good decision.

You don't need a salesperson who says yes to everything. You need one you can trust when they say no.

Happy Friday. Make it a great day!

Here's something I wish more people knew.

You don't have to be ready to buy a car to call me. Six months away? Call. Wondering if you should fix your car or replace it? Comparing two vehicles that aren't even on my lot? Confused by a CarFax? Curious what your trade's actually worth?

I don't want our relationship to start the day you're ready to buy. I want to have already earned your trust by then.

If you've got a car question, ask me. That's what I'm here for.

Restart. Reset. Refocus. As many times as you need.

You are your own greatest project.

But just always remember. Don't give up. Never give up.
