Hoovie makes money from pretending to be stupid, clever guy..
He’s smarter than your average bear that’s for sure.
I would just say he acts goofy, but not stupid.
@@Cheepchipsable exactly
Most successful guy I ever knew that sold used would close 20+ cars every month knew NOTHING about cars, was nothing more than a glorified yes man. I remember once the folks asked if the car he was showing was FWD and he said, “ohh yeah they don’t even make RWD cars anymore too dangerous in snow” ..it was a Mercury Grand Marquise. Two years later he was finance manager.
@@ryanm4319 what in the world... Wow
Tyler is actually much smarter then people think he is. Anytime The Car Wizard has an issue selling a car, or after the sell, he talks to Hoovie. He gives excellent advice
You finally see my REAL DAD
Eyy man shoutout from... all the way in Kenya 🇰🇪
Hi Hoovie :D
Yeah Bud 👍🏻
What are you talking about? Demuro is your real Dad.
I love how you punk yourself and your loved ones with the pictures you share. I’m sure you have a picture when your dad has his eyes open but you chose that one. Hilarious
Who knew a guy known for losing money on cars sucked at selling cars
Losing money on cars is his business model on making more money on youtube. Everyone knows it
@@Bundanator77 he could probably make profit on every car he has right now if he liquidated everything. Bonkers market. Can’t wait till it’s over and I can buy my next car.
@@po.russki You can still find deals. In Feb I bought a 94 Chevy G20 with 47K showing for $2200. Since then I've found two similar ones that sold on eBay for around three to four times that, one was listed at 12K and sold on a best offer, another got bid up to 8 grand. It was the first one sold at an auction.
loses money? ha ha ha I don't think so! He's loaded
LMAO 😂
Hoovie's dad is a smart man. Hoovie is smart for listening to him.
We need to get Urination Bob to share his story!
Would definitely love to see this.
I thought it was Uranasian Bob?
@@lowdermilk89 technically EuroAsian Bob- except in Hoovie videos.
@@lowdermilk89 nvm, I get the joke now 😂 need more coffee
Ahahaha! 🤣
I like Hoovie. Whenever i think i mismanage my money i watch Hoovie's channel and feel better about myself.
until you realize that the money he makes on youtube is much more than you earn.. and start to cry?
@@LeviewFPV Until you realize it all goes to the Ninja and the Wizard....and then sigh relief.
@@fraidykat yall idiots if you think that all of his money go to them...
@@Randomeris1 With the cars he's fielding, it's not going to too many other places...
Wrong. He has fun with his excess cash.
And finally, the story of the dealership that was mentioned almost as much as "Flood damage" on this channel.
"I just wanted to keep all of the cars." - Hoovie
This is great! I literally asked yesterday how Hoovie was involved with Freddy's. this makes sense now. Good job hoovie on doing great stuff
I also thought the life of a small dealership owner sounded great until I got close to it. Not for me!
Owning a dealership and my ex have a lot in common. Not for me!
The fact that you got likes on your comments rather than the video makes a point people want to know about you and car trek 5 teaser.
Same! Such a run around with so many after-problems coming back to haunt!
Would you sell used supercars or new cars?
poor doug
Tyler has earned and deserves all of his success! He's a good human!
Having a rich successful connected dad helped a ton also.
@@fettaboyproductions6022 true! If wasn’t for his father earlier successful business endeavors we would never heard of Tyler. But smart for Tyler to take advantage of that.. I would too lol
This is a great lesson about our attitudes towards our passions. Great work Tyler!
Never mix work with pleasure
A guy who didn't make 100k in a year in the car business being a huge CZcamsr really makes me think I'm half assing.. Why don't I have a CZcams car channel... SMH
And good people don't really do well in the car business.. by time I developed a conscience I had to leave
I'm watching this in awe right now
@@audioxrson2064 I have a CZcams channel, and it's not making anywhere near 6 figures. You have to have over a million subscribers if you want to break that barrier.
Hoovie’s Garage, strangely the most inspirational auto channel in all of CZcams
-Do not forget... "The Weeeezard" ;}
Hoovie is such a humble guy, why can't all millionaires be like him 😂
-Countless many, in effect the overwhelming majority, are even less noticeable. Freedom engineered USA, is home to far more 'millionaires' than the dutifully programed by agenda, are taught (programed) to despise.
They never let it be known, rubbing shoulders, toting loads, operating equipment, fishing/hunting/drinking beer,.... all while adding profusely to the greater good, right alongside, mixed in unobtrusively among the masses.. ;}
I mean it's not too hard to be a millionaire if you were riding your dad's coattails, entering into the restaurant franchise business costs hundreds of thousands up to millions of dollars. So he can think his dad and Grandpa probably
@@throttleblip1 Indeed. Most of us don't have, or never get exposed to people like that. That's why they're "1 percenters", and we're just the 99. Most, it seems, still work hard for a while to get there, then get REALLY luck to find/hire people to handle the day to day. But THEN you get the very few who are born into it, who ARE privileged from birth, with everything laid out for them who pat themselves on the back for being successful. Just because you were born on third base, doesn't mean you hit a triple! They are usually the scummiest scumbags ever to walk the planet!
Most of them are…some drive economic cars and don’t parade their wealth on wheels but most have the same taste in cars as hoovie.
Always enjoy Tyler’s videos. He seems like a very down to earth, Midwestern guy who really loves what he does. Good for him, God bless!
He is such a humble down to earth type of guy. I don’t know how anybody could dislike him. He deserves everything he gets great dude.
Hoovie always sounds excited but exhausted at the same time!
,, yeah too much for me...
...Jeff Goldblum...that's how he speaks...like Jeff Goldblum.
Adhd
coke and cigarettes
Your a good guy Tyler, and all that frustration you went thru ( by being yourself, and honest ) paid off. Karma, God.......if you will, rewarded you. And in turn you have helped other people along the way. God bless you mate.
I like Hoovie although he struggled in the car business and didn't do well for a long time he finally found his niche and is doing well. His, tavarish and Eds shenanigans on car trek are fantastic!
Opening and running restaurant's is hard work, been there done that. He has definitely earned what he has now.
Need to get the Car Wizard down to tell some horror stories
10:40 that's NOT luck mate. You've been fortunate in your upbringing ( your dad clearly has your back) but you've undoubtedly worked very hard for all you've achieved. Good on you.
Sounds like the story of Conrad Hilton. “There I was, starting from scratch in 1929, the depths of The Great Depression. Only $30k in my pocket. Like a pauper…”
Oh…wait…What?!?
@@troyjollimore4100 did Conrad work as a chambermaid or bellhop? Sounds like Tyler put the hours in as grunt to me.
@@johnmunro4952 That was my point. Most of these ‘success stories’ came from people that put in the ‘hard work’, but also had the benefit of very rich families. Kevin ‘Mr. Wonderful’ O’Leary was another one. “I was forced to drive a used car when I was 17. A USED BMW for a first car! Imagine that!” LOL… I don’t hold it against them. Life happens as it happens, and many of them are just as honest and ‘good’ a person as you or I.
@@troyjollimore4100 is not necessarily a bad thing, my grampa didn't finish primary school work hard to put his kids through school, my dad only finished highschool but again work hard and put me through college and i hope i can provide a better life for my kids also, becoming rich overnight is not the only path to success
@@a3-radio Oh no, my hat’s off to them. Aside from usually having those resources behind them, they learn money management and such from their families. My family has always been the ‘work hard, scrimp and save’ type, so I never really learned any of those skills. Just enough to make myself relatively stable, and that’s it.
I love that I live in the same city as Hoovie, when he tells stories they are always relatable.
We lived in Wichita for 5 years and I feel the same, I can relate to the various places. That and as a fellow Kansans, ya gotta love love Freddie's!
I visited Wichita for a concert at The Cotillion a couple years ago. Sadly I knew nothing of Hoovie, the Car Wizard, JR, Elliott, or any of the local CZcamsrs at the time.
Tyler is very self deprecating in his videos as part of his branding.
However, he really is highly intelligent which we see in interviews such as this one. And his Hoovies Garage videos are not only informative, but also very humorous and enjoyable.
I actually worked at a used car dealership that did the rent-to-own model with trackers and remote ignition interrupt. It was a very interesting business to be in. You're right, though. People hated us.
-Repo Man... much more hatred for us when we were doing that ...adrenaline rush exciting .. work ;}
Take a shot every time Hoovie says “Like Ed”
Anytime any storyteller mentions Ed , particularly the cheeky shots ( friendly banter ) ..... you'd need a bartender . Lol .
I really like Hoovie. He is just a down to earth person.
I wondered how this guy made the money to piss away on so many expensive cars. I'm glad to see he earned it.
I've been subbed to Hoovie's channel for I don't even know how many years now, and no matter how much luck played into his rise or how many coattails he allegedly rode to it, Tyler has paid that karma back at least ten times over with all the other small channels he's helped to gain traction on CZcams, or even to get off the ground. I've never met the man and I probably never will, but Hoovie just strikes me as a genuinely good person with a true passion for cars. He deserves every bit of success he's found thus far, and quite a lot more in the future.
Wichita Kansas is proud of this young man. Additionally we will never forget Bill and Freddy Simon. Small town men with big integrity.
Funny how true his line "everyone thinks your an asshole for trying to make money on a car, but everything else is just about OK"
This isn't why people hate car salesmen. It's because they're typically know liars and cheats and if you're not on your toes they'll rip you off.
I'm with Jetrep on this one. I do not have any issues with their profit, but I had my share of garbage cars being sold as brand new, tampered odometer, hidden damage and etc. But I also had my share of good, honest salesman as well.
@@jetrep Yep. Also, people don't clear out their life savings to buy a burger. If the car is a lemon you can't just throw it in the trash and easily buy another one
Yes but most of the time the used car salespeople have no idea of the history of the car they are selling. They mist likely got it from auction, have no idea if its ever been in a wreck or has mechanical issues etc, but the buyer is expecting a genuine good-as-it-looks ultra safe ultra reliable purchase. Its almost certainly the most expensive purchase we make after our home, and if you rent you home it's then likely to be the most expensive thing you will buy. So of course you want it to be perfect
@@jetrep -You 'Really need to 'walk in the shoes' of a Car Guy.
Five years of experience (following retirement from a trade), taught about getting along with others, helping those truly in need, vs the few rare individuals that are trying to scam the dealerships.
Somewhere in between is the average 'sale'. Both parties come out satisfied..
Only by their purchase, the reputable dealership is profitable and remains in business.
One of life's most important lessons? before visiting the dealership,
Do Your Homework.. ;}
walking away from something bad can be a good thing",,,best insight ever... :)
Congratulations on all your success Hoovie! Thank you for all your content over the years
Tyler seems like a genuinely nice guy. Glad to see things ended up working out for him. His father sounds like he deserves some credit for not raising a snowflake as well. Hoovie tried, failed, and tried again until he figured out his thing. His channel is one of my favorites. He is a master of self deprecating humor and is wise enough to show some humility at appropriate moments. The CZcams community, the world, could use more Hoovies...thanks for sharing your story, thanks Ed for doing this for the rest of us mere mortals.
Love hearing how people journeyed to where they are
After years. Finally getting the story 😁
You have no idea
@@shawnparadox9299 after 5 years.. I do 🤣
This is a neat story. No maxims, no ham handed life lessons, no lightning strikes. Hoovie didn't fail upwards, nor was he born on 3rd. Sometimes, just sometimes, someone acknowledges that they ran with an opportunity and that's why they are where they are. Keep it up, Hoovie, I love your channel! Thanks to vinwiki for letting him tell this story!
First VinWiki I’ve ever watched…. All because of Hoovie…. Your humble honesty is refreshing
A great example of working at your passion not always being a good idea. Tyler has been lucky to become successful in another field, allowing him to be able to enjoy buying and selling cars as a side hustle.
After watching countless videos on Hoovie's channel, I now realize what he should have been doing all along: own the auction lot. Find a decent auctioneer, make money!
I am just happy he tried. It takes a special person to go into this business.
Daily numbers game
Love both your channels and collaborations. Thanks Freddies.
I love Freddie's even more now such a humble man I'm glad he shared his story
Needed this. Everything makes sense now. Thanks for giving us a small bite of the pie!
I just walked away from the car business 5 weeks ago. I am waiting tables now. I really hope my life turns around like yours did.
Just have your dad give you a job working for his fast food franchises.
When I got out of the car business after 15 years and got into my current career that I’ve been in now for 15 years it was interesting to see the car business from the outside.
To go into the corporate structure that I’m in now made me realize that the car business is the last of the wild wild West. It also unfortunately made me realize the hatred and disrespect that most people have for an occupation that still holds a lot of great lifetime relationships for me today.
This video was so true I’ve had the same thoughts exactly, exactly that I can flip houses which I’ve done and made $20,000 on in six weeks but if I flip a car and get lucky and make 1000 on it I screwed somebody-it’s supposed to be a charity. Getting out of the car business is like trying to stay away from a drug or alcohol addiction. It’s an sure fire way to make money to live on and exist if you have the talents. When waiting tables or whatever jobs you migrate through trying to stay away from the car business long-term it is tough not to go back when times are financially hard.
in the United States right now a worker who does not have a criminal record, tattoos and piercings in public view, the ability to show up on time and be reliable, the ability to call a customer back just like you promised you would is very rare. I suggest you Go into a couple large independent insurance agencies in your town or insurance agencies like State Farm, or country companies, or Allstate. I promise you there is a owner of an agency that would be willing to help you get through the insurance licensing process if you had those rare attributes of a worker in the market today. Ask them to pay for your licensing and then withdraw it from your earnings over time when you first start. They will have you on commission as well helping customers with different types of insurance products. You should make 35 to 50,000 in the first year.
Hang in there, keep looking for an alternative away from where you are surviving right now waiting tables. Good workers are hard to find. Are you a good worker?
@@richardjcranium I am in the supply chain of a large fast food chain. I deal with kids like this all the time. Dad gave them 5 of his 20 restaurants when they got out of college and they think they are John Rockefeller level businessmen. One shows up to his stores with $4000 suits on and always a bow tie. Like man you make your money selling burgers not oil futures.
I’ve been in the car business since 18. I am 23 now. I can’t imagine myself waking away.
@@shawnmason5290 I see what your saying but the dishonesty and outright lying people have experienced from car dealers/salesman is what gives them the reputation. One time I heard the salesman telling the car appraiser to screw me on my trade in because he thought I would take it and he needed an X dollar sale for the month. Last car I bought for my wife Salesman talking about all these things they were going to "throw in" if I bought the car. Get the sales contract and every one of those things was on there for me to pay a couple grand for. Then the jackalope wants me to sign a paper saying I didn't want them. I told him I don't have to sign shit to not buy something just rewrite the contract without that crap on it. This is after I walked in with my financing setup already but he "tried to get me a better deal" and hit my credit with 3 inquiries from their preferred financers without my permission. Hell John Ficarra just did a story on here about how grimy the salesman were at the Honda dealer he worked for. Its an earned reputation car salesman have.
Thanks for the great stories Ed!
Love all your stories and videos..keep up the great work
Based off these picture, I must say: Respect to Hoovie, achieving all this before reaching the age of 16!
His father is a muti millionaire and owned dozens of dealerships..hardly self made.
@@PrettyFLY4aWiFi. before the age of 12 more like it.
I really appreciated this story Hoovie!
Awesome to see the pics of the inside of the shop. Brings back memories from 2012 when I picked up that Red Supercharged MR2 from you.
Hoovie is such a chill dude. Very happy for his success.
This is just another amazing story about realizing the American dream! All it takes here is a hard working, successful dad to step in and give you a business to run. That's a boot strap story. Congrats my man, you deserve it!
What a great video, love the story and the content, Tyler, thank you!
This is why we love ya Hoovie! Very honest and what you see is what you get. Plus we learn from your mistakes. As bad as they are you turned out pretty good bub!
"Everyone thinks they should buying for trade-in and selling for retail" -- spot on!
Tyler is living the life that Ed wants to live! I love his stories!
Ahhhh -- all the Taco Bell and Taco Tuesday jokes make so much more sense now :)
I learned a long time ago from a used car dealer that if you're going to open up a car lot, "Never fall in love the car". Truer words were never spoken.
-As advised by intelligent family member, about many things in life.
"Missed one? Just like buses, another will come along" ;}
I'm a lifelong survivor of the car business. Had a few used car dealerships. I still flip cars, but now I have a couple of limo/transportation companies for income. Life is so much better and I can still buy cars, if I want to collect.
Hoovie selling Hooptie’s 😁
I love you Hoovie, and everything you do and seeing your story and how it hasn't been 100% successful makes me hopeful for my own life. You're a great inspiration and clearly a genuine person.
Is your dad a successful business owner that will set you up with a business to run? No? Hmmm
It's amazing what can be accomplished with the right attitude and an excellent sense of humility. You didn't end up a drunk full of arrogance at a big three dealer, you learned and grew.
Loved the story and background. Really great video
This was a great interview.
Pretty sure it was a monologue.
Freddy’s should offer a combo called. “Hoovie Snacks”
Thanks for sharing. Your honesty is why people like you. Cheerz
I love how’s he’s honest and a real people person. Sometimes for business you need to change because people take advantage of you.
Great storytelling young man !!! Congratulations on pursuing your dreams !!!
Hoovie is such a down-to-earth guy.. love his content and quirkiness!
Self deprecating humor is part of Hoovie’s success. Something humbling about it and entertaining too. If he just showed us videos trying to be the coolest guy in the room it would get old. Not to mention he is cool.
I've been watching Hoovie for a few years and I love to see a young man go places in life.great job Hoovie
Great story Tyler , your last few lines was a good finish. Thanks for sharing!
If only we all had a father to get us in the door of a franchise, then we could all be like Hoovie.
Step one: have rich parents
You should drop the Un out of your name…
nope, gotta be smart and motivated and personable and positive attitude too, a rare combo
Being a member of the lucky sperm club is only part of it. There are plenty of kids of rich parents that don’t have a fucking clue. Here is a person who listened to people and himself and made himself a great job. Love what you do and you’ll never work a day in your life. Pretty good for a political science major. Most of them are morons. Your proving to be the exception.
Just get a small loan from your father to start a fast food franchise empire to fund your car hobby. Simple
That's the same way he started his failed dealership right out of college.
@@johnmcvay4403 just a small loan of $1 mil
His father was in a position to make sure his son was well off I’d say that’s a good dad.
DAMN YOU BEAT ME YO IT BUT IM STILL SAYING IT Smallloanofamilliondollars
Lol, so jealous
a car guy my whole life - after the last few expensive years of ownership - I am due to maintenance cost of the 'fun cars' switching to an only toyota guy! You have helped us these last few years. Thank you! Maintenance and repair costs the last three years have gone 'out of reasonable!'
Great advice. Thanks Tyler
Love life stories like that. Struggles are real. 👍🏼👍🏼
Wooo! Never get to be here this early! Always love a good story from Hoovie
That's a great dad. You gave a good explanation of practical life experience that will save a young person from hardship.
Great interview.
Very cool story that Tyler shared with us, I always wondered how he could afford all the cars that he has.
8:24 roooooooaaaaaaaad maaaaaassssstttteeeeer
I'm so glad you finally filled us in the how's and where's you came from. I always wondered how you got where you're at and yet living in the "mansion" (lol) you live in.....
Why the quotes and the lulz? That IS a mansion, though that bar has been raised to ludicrous levels.
@@troyjollimore4100 I live in Houston where we have numerous billionaires and individuals with a high 8-figure net worth whose pool houses are about as big as his house. So yes, for most, it's big but for the top 1%, it's small. It's all relative......
@@michelfortier9563 Well, I live in an 1100 sqft mini-home, so there’s that.
gotta love Hoovie. Thanks for sharing.
Every human being should be required to sell cars for a year just to see how kind and honest customers can be.
-Truer words never spoken. EVERY one should give it a try... one year at least. A college education is lacking in teaching personal relationships, in comparison to those learned while in car sales. Dealing with associates, as well as managers, a fine balance, a dance in effect, to even survive, let alone prosper ;}
Opening a dealership really is a continuous struggle.
You are a talented and engaging SOB. Thanks for all of your videos! You make my commute by train bearable, hell, enjoyable.
Success or failures are important life lessons we must all live through. Looking back you must be thrilled you listened to your Dad as I did which hopefully removed the chance of future failures. Congrats Hoovie on your success and thanks for all the hours of entertainment.
You've got an interesting story. Good job telling it.
Ate a Freddy's steak burger yesterday; f--n delicious
Me too!
Too greasy!
@@labornurse -Asking for a curious friend, how much 'Grease, should a burger contain?
@@blogengeezer4507you can inform you friend the perfect amount is just enough fat to not soak the wrapper and brown bag containing it.
Great advice and a cool story.
Sometimes you have to take a different road to get where you wanna go.
🔥🔥 Keep it going Hoovie been watching you since the Beginning always Knew The take off was soon
Freddy’s is about to have a spike in franchise requests
"Only industry where you are a jerk for making money"! I would give this video 1million thumbs up if i could.
Its a bit warranted and for multiple reasons.
1st class....thanks for sharing
We have a Freddie's in Broomall pa , food pretty good there
Damn you were a cute kid Hoovie! I can see clearly that cars have aged you hahaha!
Ed would be any car dealers worst nighmare. Too many shrewd negotiations.
Love every time Tyler is on... Always a plethora of stories... Maybe one day I'll end up on Vin wiki... Another great episode Ed
Awesome vid, Hoovie, thanks for sharing. It's inspiring as I try to start my own (non-car) business, and YT channel...
Tyler's Ad Astra really should have been named Per Ardua Ad Astra instead, "Through Adversity to the Stars - also the motto of the RAF!
And the RCAF
The full Kansas motto is Ad Astra Per Aspera
Yeah the official Latin saying from Ancient Rome is Ad Astra Per Aspera
@@markfisher8206 RAAF also , must be a commonwealth thing as the RAF was the model for us , SAS also
The correct Latin sentence is “per aspera ad astra” .
