Just a quick note, this was a very enjoyable podcast to listen to.
Chris’s enthusiasm for the car industry and people in general really came through. Seems like a very positive person who would be interesting to meet at a cars & coffee or the Amelia Island Concourse.
Always a plus for me to hear how important a person’s faith has been in their journey through business & life. I will definitely check out his various blogs.
