As we wrap up the NADA show this morning, we are energized.

We’re hearing that this has been record years for a lot of industry partners, and dealers are optimistic and ready to try new things.

Our friends at CarRx are our content partners today, and we’ve got Michelle Jackson, EVP of Sales to share with us a little bit more about their product and how they’re approaching the end of the year.

They’ve got a really cool both so we end the show playing Mortal Kombat and solving Rubik’s cubes.

We're at the North Hall of the NADA Show today, getting ready for another amazing day.

An underlying theme of all our conversations has been the "Year of the Human." Even though AI is a big theme, dealers are asking, "How does this help my people?"

We love that because of our belief in the motto of Love People More Than You Love Cars, and today we had on Jeremy Rowland to talk more about it.

Thank you to our friends at Mia for making all of the content possible.

We've been on the show floor all day, and so this afternoon, we stopped by our friends at Cars Commerce to catch up with the one and only Brian Kramer.

As a former dealer himself, Brian has great insights to the market and how its moving. His latest interest: AI Search, and he unpacks how the trust level in AI search is increasing, and how their tool Carson on Cars.com is an example of that.
