It can go the distance that Robbie go more than ever to guard and with me today is one amazing Christian Car Guy himself jury methods of race body shop and introducing another Christian car guy technical marvel. I call it that contender Nader yes, there were two heavy ways.

This is really cool. I mean if you go to Christian Car Guy right now you get a chance to see the contender Nader you get a chance to see the belt but since this is a live call-in show, we need you to call in and share with your cars mileage. We have a few key questions organ asking you call us at 866-34-TRUTH 87884 and we are going to bestow this belt of honor on your car your car can be in a contender, Nader 866-34-TRUTH 87884. Yes, I will place all this information in the contender.

Nader then the contender Nader will award your vehicle is very own belt of honor to give us an example of that work in a start off with Jerry's own personal family while one of his hours and you know while he's doing that. Just think, you can call in at 866-34-TRUTH 87884 will year car go the distance.

So here are the questions you knowingly.

To start out with your course, your name, which we know in this case is Jerry II knew that had a time and what make of car are we trying to decide is a contender 1953 Chevrolet pickup wow was that as a tenant with that without back Agassi called CTM back at the time and say that we sent family car. Now this is some sort of burying off a little bit better because that's a shop truck because I were in the car business and so we traded cohorts is like changing underwear all motion. It was in the color of this particular, a truck with his red primer (that's sort of an orange or red.

Okay. And you know how many miles this this vehicle might whip up the speedometer and the work in about six years before it finally had to go into retirement. So I hotel and how many miles a thing. Hundreds of thousands a bunch and did this truck have a name no name say I was young I was bullish.

I didn't know the value of giving it a name, so while I paint your wagon. There was no name city. This is no name truck. Now what, and again were put all this information in the can tend to Nader in a minute. You can hear you know what happens but before we do that we can find out what was your best memory of this particular no-name truck for that truck is what I learned to drive in Maine at 14 I was going to pick parts up in it. I mean it was a it was a different time Southwell was out on the road driving it three on the tree six-cylinder methane ran like it that we just purred like a kitten love that thing.

I guess probably that my favorite memory, just learning how to drive in and thinking I wasn't. And that that probably had a clutch spring, a major leg just really enjoy especially came on that first I learned what was your worst memory of this particular also Bobby in at three in the tree you have wanting things jam up in gear. Yes I have.

I can remember being held Sprague Street heel and the car stopped and I downshifted that thing and got jammed up in the gear I was. That was no fun rides. Well, we have placed all the information into the contender, Nader, and now we are ready to listen as the can then taint it to just the stuff in here comes all right for contender Nader has spoken the contender Nader has bestowed on the no-name truck. The badge of Phoenix. Someday it will rise from the ashes.

So that's how the contender Nader works long that overcame that part of not having a name that's excellent had me worried there for them to start Brandon's heart but anyway this is how it works now listen, we need your call today. This is a live epic show of the Christian card. I try to give everybody hope on how far these cars will go so when you call in with your chance to get built for your car.

It's very own contender belt. You need to call us at 866-348-7884 will put all the information in the contender, Nader, and it will produce your very own contender belt and later this week if you give her our producer in your email address. We will send you a digital copy of your own contender belt with your customized name on it. Christian card I style and all this is to create hope the that your vehicle will go the distance even further and already turned 350,000 miles this week and I do estimate that I save approximately $33,000 by not trading every four years like the national average, which is nearly $2000 year and I might take you through all the math of the maintenance costs later on the show to give an example of how that works but just to be fair, old red did have a new engine and it's had a couple head gasket so it's not like it's had a low maintenance expenses had heavy maintenance expense but we can take you through that and so Jerry for me. It's been, like Moses in the desert.

My shoes have not worn out with old red. It is definitely a contender if it's definitely gone the distance at animal health and even even with those major expenses.

I mean, there's plenty of cars are on the road that don't have to have those major expenses people maintain them in you know it is just amazing what you can what that vehicle will do there made to go that far in trying.

We want to hear yours, 866348788486634 truth and coming up in the shown appraisal by the real black book that's research about Bible for hidden treasure proud for the sermon lift up our voice for understanding, so going the distance is all about hope. Jerry is all about hope and it's interesting in God's palate. You know when he mixes things together. According to George McDonald this is such a beautiful board picture. Hope y'all see it you know when you make together blue and yellow you get green but in God's palate.

He mixes together emotions and in the way that George McConnell put this is if you mix together. Love and faith you think about this you get this thing is called hope mixed together in God's palate of emotions you take love and faith you get hope if you had love and loss, you get grief. Unfortunately, Jerry's got a turnaround of vacancies going to a funeral or if you love if you had love and anger you get this jealousy about sin that big big big in God's name was a jealous God right Elkanah that that stock so wonderfully described in the trees project so what about this hope will have a passage from Isaiah 49 the just gives me tremendous hope and I was sure that it in the show coming up in our appraisal by the real black book. But we need today. This is a live show epic show because we are playing we are using this technical marvel.

Well, I understand and I'm quite often myself and so in this particular situation. What I would do is take both cars to a totally independent Honda technician, not the one that owns the one and and really it might cost you hundred dollars to have those two car checked out, but I bet you that technician at the end of that time when he takes out those cars will tell you which one is the better value really endemic.

The one thing him because of the both great cars. They both will be durable cars which you got also look at maintenance cost that Hector is on to be a higher maintenance cost and also if you look at actors probably will have to run high test fuel will now that's a great question, Jeannie got to go to break.

And in doing so, you can save a lot of money which you could then leverage for the kingdom of God and@christiancardi.com. I took all the money I spent on old red since I had including one crate engine what head gasket two sets of lifters 97, oil changes, five sets of tires. Everything is all there and when you add all that up seriously over 18 years I spent $15,575 and maintenance costs on the old red and originally the car was $13,950. That old red. The original investment. So over that total. The time that had old red. I have invested in it. $29,525 and a driven 350,000 miles and 18 years now. If you divide that altogether you get $1529 a year, or about eight cents a mile. Now if you take the exact same information say okay I'm like the average American. I traded every four years.

Assuming no repairs.

Nothing under warranty.

I mean that that was done outside of all the other strata cards every four years and didn't have any excess mechanical costs you to take how much a truck just like old red would've gone up that would've traded it for different times and instead of $27,000 I would've invested $67,000 to buy those five trucks. So there you have it in savings of $33,565. By keeping, which by the way, I love old red and I've enjoyed it so much. By keeping and maintaining old red, sometimes by putting the engine, sometimes expensive repairs still you know that the savings is phenomenal. If you can keep your carpet meet your needs and it works out. We got Jim is in Utah and he's ready to go into the contender, Nader Jim you're on the Christian card I show good morning Jimmy with me. Wonderful, wonderful, well, we are ready to go.

What kind of car you have a 1994 or escort Manwell Trent transmission five speed and got 465,000 miles on the vehicle. Oh, 465000 Minor Dr. 73 miles a day round-trip 5678 a week merely five days were going to wake Ellie went through the virtually died on it and we bought a used engine in it. It went 29 days and it died in the people warranted a Jewish but a second engineering didn't go around the block a week off to do at that point to buy a super heavy duty rebuilt engine in it and it ran 180 90,000 miles on it before it died for stupidity because my job should've changed the night couldn't get the car regularly serviced and maintain, like I had been the best memory I have about it was the wife was driving, we were doing some of schooling activities very all a lot of kids around, so she drove a nine passenger Chevy suburban and we were on a trip and my oldest son had that elected to not go on that trip with this was with another woman friend of ours and their son. Her son, rather in car troubles in the pickup that they were good take from Utah to New Mexico and they they were like 67 miles out. They limped the truck home and got into the green car and truck get on their trip to New Mexico and when we all got back together. He said that they were astounded that that car got 35 to 37 miles per gallon to regulate usually that car would get 40 miles per gallon. If you're in the right temperature the right, right. Talking you'll get 40 miles per gallon and they were driving stopped and got eight, nine, 10, 12 miles per gallon and they were like discounts now one of the problems we always had with it which was kind of the advantage and disadvantage was the Ford 1.9 later four-cylinder and is a non-interference engine timing belt. We hang out all the cool thing is I load up or tear out to the shop where we got it we can get. Is there a name for this wonderful machine. We called it the gringo always on the go will agree, youngest daughter that all of the gringo that is so cool were ready to we've got all the information in the contender, Nader.

My parents live, I actually under the right conditions. I think I get the right conditions at the time I got a whopping 31 miles per gallon sauce so cool and what what color secure it. Maroon color and the name have you named your caravan, not really, but what the caravan because I like the versatility of the vehicle. Take the speech out and you can. People with it all thing and that's why little.this is actually this 1001 and am looking at possibly getting what one but him, hold off of my growth went by like the fact I got 171 on what you want.

What's your best memory of the versatile caravan there on the best memory and was my going up to Washington DC for going throughout the and all I was able to pick seven individuals in their very weekend we went to the cave area were able to turn back, how about the worst memory worst memory okay. Somewhere around 136,000 miles ahead rebuilt transmission in first gear first gear put in gear and I had to get defeated. I had to take it in. You will get that done about it. And they will. And you get caught. I need to get it done but I had it done 36,000 miles. It's all part of what goes into it. I put a lot of money and all rent but compared about anything and it just keeps going and going all right.

We have all the information for horse in the contender, Nader.

Let's hear all all right contender, Nader has spoken. It is named your car Old Faithful is given at the advantage that the contender belt which is very cool if you go to Christian Carter.com you can see what you will be receiving in the mail and email edge actually a good digital copy of your contender belt Old Faithful for universal Vanguard bless you horse appreciate you calling today. Thank you, thank you all right you want to get your car into the contender Nader you call us 866-34-TRUTH 87884 866-34-TRUTH we've got Kelly is in Shelbyville, Kentucky. Welcome Kathy excuse me Kathy in Shelbyville. Howard tells about your car, 452,000 miles absolutely and he still Dragon that is powerful.

Now, what colors is to come. It's black.

All right, that helps the big contender Nader needs little details like that now is I'm hoping that that you've given this car and name it HP we on the back of your truck that like Whitehead HP members" I can't recall, but the numbers were of verse in the Bible that he, like how it was a reminder of him God firepower and felt that we just nicknamed it HP. After that, I am so excited for hundred and 52,000 miles now, what's your best memory for HP.

There 12 years ago and we've been married six years, Billy Graham. Today the same day that he thought the truck people attractive thing that lacked the truck. Now that's got some sentimental value to it.

That's no doubt now after church. When my grandchildren when we leave church there.

Five and seven. Three years we take a little panorama church parking lot back with them and Poppy ride this around their church parking lot with kids in the back and me hanging on to them and that's just a really special memory, very sentimental attachment you try for 52,000 miles you got some connection to that truck well that I think the contender Nader. We got time donning.

We don't have time for the contender Nader so work when we come back working here at the contender, Nader has to say about a higher power. We've also got our appraisal by the real black book. We talked about hope. We got so much coming up.

Maybe we'll have time to get your car in the contender Nader, 866348788 Farley come back. What does a contender, Nader had to say about HP you don't want to Mrs. Satan's January car, so the distance will it be tender, the question of the Christian card I show we are honoring cars that have gone the distance like old red turned 300,000 miles this week. That's my little red Dodge truck, but we had on the line right before the break Kathy in Shelbyville, Kentucky in her Tacoma husband, has gone 452,000 miles certainly contender certainly has gone the distance and I'm hoping that as you hear the stories of give you hope that your car will last longer, and by doing so will save you money that you can leverage for the kingdom of God.

But when we put all this information. It's a 98, is black as 452,000 miles on it. She is named it HP for higher power husband's name to HP for higher power and were putting all this and let's hear from Marlon Brando. All the contender, Nader the contender, Nader has spoken Kathy and it named you her Tacoma HP is given at the badge impervious medical impervious absolutely unstoppable. What a great name and think I'm just your whole story or marriage. All that how cool God bless you precious gone into the thanks, you're welcome. All right, we gotta move our appraisal by the real black book, and hopefully will get in a couple of these other contender, Nader jobs, but we always would like to search the Bible for hidden treasure crowd for discernment. As I mentioned in the beginning of the show. The whole thing about going the distance has to do with hope and we talk about George McDonald gave us his word picture, and that God's pallet of human emotion. You can mix all these different things with love and you get a different color like if you mix blue and yellow you get green well if you mix hope and loss.

You get grief if you mix hope and anger you get the sort of jealousy. L can kind of thing where your you don't want your loved ones to fall into sin if you mix hope and faith. I'm excuse me if you mix love and faith you get. Hope and that's a lot of if we love our vehicles and I'm not saying Macon Audubon talk about love your car like you just heard the minister, he loved his car. He had faith that it would go. He didn't traded one 452,000 miles. Well the Christian walk is not unlike that you love God, and you begin to grow in faith and then while look what happens.

But for a lot of us.

We have kids and and in my case I have an older son that is exactly walk with the Lord and there's times I really start to lose hope.

So I wanted to share this passage in Isaiah 49 for those you might be like me. The Children loved ones that your little bit concerned about in Isaiah 49. This is what the sovereign Lord says CI will beckon to the nations, and I will lift up my banner to the peoples. They will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their hips. Kings will be your foster fathers and their queens are nursing mothers. They will bow down before you in their faces to the ground. They will lick the dust at your feet. Then you will know that I am the Lord, and those who hope in me will not be disappointed that those who hope in me will not be disappointed. Well we got a couple more contender Nader's we get to try out this here, we gotta go fast so were going to go to Kenny is in Fort Dodge, Iowa Kenny are on their Christian card I show tell me about your car real quick what is our one suburban goal. I have 191 miles on it and have you named named it. I can still, it can still deal with that. So when we put in what color is it all gold gold. All right, all right, we put that in the contender, Nader can get time donning the computer won't allow the contender, Nader will miss that these things happen. But guess what, I have a special cheat contender Nader where we may not put it in the computer but I happen to know and I can come out with a name for your suburban I am going to I'm going to bestow upon it.

The insignia of stalwart S TAL W a T there you go.
