Ron McNutt, Car Expert!

You'd think seeing names in print would be a pedestrian experience for me now. But a few months ago, a writer in a freelance organization that I am also active in was looking for an authority to speak on trends in the auto industry. I offered that my dad was the most preeminent expert I knew since he's been very successful and built a multi-state business in the past 35 years.

She was interested in talking to him, and I got all PR-like and even set up the interview. I just discovered the article online, and it was such a kick to read Dad's quotes in the story:
Small Cars are Selling Big

He's on the second page, talking about how people down here still love their gas-guzzlers! Great job, Dad. :)
