I'm A Car Chick · 2026-06-02 · 20 min
Host Shasta Haddock welcomes back a familiar face to the I'm a Car Chick booth at NADA 2026: Scott Simons. Since his last appearance, Scott has taken the ultimate leap from operator to owner, acquiring a dealership in North Carolina. Scott gets raw and real about the "shit-eating grin" that comes with finally owning his own store, even while balancing the stress of three loans and a long-distance commute. They discuss the professional power of the Las Vegas networking scene, the reality of "taking it on the chin" during the first year of ownership, and why you should never let anyone tell you that you can't achieve your dreams. If you've ever thought about the path to ownership, Scott’s journey is the inspiration you need. #ImACarChick #NADA2026 #ScottSimons #DealershipOwner #AutomotiveEntrepreneur #CarDealerLife #Networking #ChasingDreams
