Excited to give you an official welcome back to The Straight Shift, with me, LeeAnn Shattuck, also known as The Car Chick. If you’ve been listening to the show since it launched in 2017, thank you so much for sticking in there. If you’re new here, welcome! In this episode I’ll be sharing an update on why the show went on a hiatus, how it impacted my business as a whole and the podcast. Beyond that, I’ll be sharing more on the current state of the automotive industry so we can set the foundation for upcoming episodes. When you listen, you’ll get an update on everything from lasting impacts of the chip shortage, if you should purchase a new, used, or leased car, and of course a short update on electric vehicles. What you do need to know is that we aren’t currently in a true buyer’s market, but you’ll learn the power that you do have. Listen today and subscribe to the show so you never miss our weekly episodes.
