    In this episode of The Car Guy Coffee Podcast, hosts Lou Ramirez and Fred Lennartz welcome V20 leaders to build excitement for NADA in Las Vegas and the Dealer Vendor Mixer (DVM) after-party. They highlight the event’s focus on networking, trust, and community—bringing dealers and vetted vendors together without “pitch slaps,” plus music, drinks, and views near the Bellagio fountains. The group promotes limited tickets available via dealer-vendor-mixer.com and sponsor partners, and shares details on the V20 booth (2001 West) featuring 15-minute educational, non-sales presentations, speed-dating style vendor intros, and gamification like ZipDeal’s “Jackpot Journey” with a $3,500 dealer cash prize. They emphasize “stronger together,” relationship-building, and human connection as the core of industry progress.

    Car Guy Coffee Podcast Presents #5Liner feat. Christene Addis

    Welcome to The #5Liner, the show dedicated to the individual journeys that power the automotive industry. It's not about the company; it's about the individual, their career, mindset, and personal story. In each episode, we sit down with a high-quality selection of Car Guys and Car Gals to get beyond the title and into the hard earned wisdom they've gained. Join us as we uncover the wins, challenges, and #5Liner takeaways that have shaped today’s top talent.

    In this episode of The Car Guy Coffee Podcast, hosts Lou Ramirez and Fred Lennartz welcome Christene Addis. Christene shares her “why” as faith, family, and passion, with a focus on serving and uniting her community. She explains that automotive wasn’t her original plan—she came from nonprofit and corporate work—but fell in love with the industry’s fast pace, adaptability, people, and marketing impact after five years in the business. Christene highlights key mentors, including her adoptive father and former leader Craig Linvall, sharing lessons like “Who will be better because of what I do today?” and “Nobody cares about your storm.” She names her hardest career lesson as learning that you can do everything right and still lose, and her greatest rewards as her daughter and successful community campaigns and initiatives.
