I said, Aren't you going to work? He said, I don't touch the cars. They got out there and Aaron was amazing but Richard, when we started filming, was just standing there watching.

Yeah, I'll bring Aaron with me and we will come out and do the show. I asked him if he wanted to be on the show and he said. He told me a story about his printing company that he had sold, and that he and Aaron built cars, and that he was trying to develop a t-shirt line. I saw his Gas Monkey garage trailer, and he was selling clothing. What was the genesis of that?įoose: I met Richard – didn't meet Aaron yet – but I met Richard at the Detroit Autorama downstairs. TFL: Not too many people know this, but a pony-tailed Richard Rawlings and beardless Aaron Kaufman made an appearance on Overhaulin'. TFL: I'm sure it's important for you to hide on the freeways.įoose: I have other cars that stand out such as the green Hemisfear that is here in the Auto Navigator garage so when I drive something like that, it kind of forces a bit of a traffic jam. It is bone stock I can hide on the freeways with it. That is my daily driver, I have not touched it. I ended up getting it for 23 grand with my trade in. TFL: What is your daily driver?įoose: I went to the Ford dealership last year to buy a new Ford F150 and there was a 2010 Ford Platinum F150 on the lot that had 17,000 miles on it. But they don't have to use CapitalOne they can use it as a buying process and finance it the way they want to.

Simplified, get it done and be prequalified before they go into the dealership. They can see what the price of the car is and what their payments would be based on their down payment and what it will be based on the months they want to finance it. They are the ones updating and putting new cars on the website so when the buyer wants to find out what they can buy, they can go by either make and model, VIN number, or they can punch in the price they have to pay monthly. They can do everything with one stop: figure out what the finances are going to be and work with all the 1,000's of dealerships that are working with the website already. They can go to this one website and simplify.

The average person will be online at different websites for over nine hours. TFL: As someone who has been instrumental in the disruptor world with the cars you have designed, how do you see CapitalOne's new Auto Navigator online car buying program benefiting consumers?įoose: We are here at the DFW Auto Show in the Auto Navigator Garage to showcase the Auto Navigator website which is streamlining and simplifying the process of buying cars.
