Ed has gotta be the most well spoken person I’ve ever heard. If you don’t believe me, watch cartrek. He does a review of a car while on a racetrack, and it’s absolutely astonishing.
@@BKetch yeah I gained a lot of respect for him after learning about his faith. I remember when they were reacting to mean cartrek comments, he said one of the best things I’ve ever heard. Someone accused him of being stupid enough to vote for Trump, makes him just as dumb for believing in God. And he responded with “I don’t know who hurt you, but I’m sure it’s nothing that a smaller government and a loving Creator can’t fix” Mic drop moment right there
I met Ed at a rooftop party for Vossen wheels in Las Vegas a while back. I was a bit star struck but he is such a down to earth guy. He didn’t judge me as I stumbled over my words like a cat lady meeting Taylor Swift back stage.
He makes such a good point about turning a passion or a hobby into a business. You really get down to the nuts and bolts of what you’re doing and you start taking the fun out of it, squeezing the fun out of it. I know a lot of people did the fishing industry with charters. Kids that just love to fish and knew all the spots to catch, so decided to open up a charter business. At the end of the day their hobby turned into a life sucking business. Just something to think about. If you’re really passionate about something. It’s not always the right move to make it your full-time gig.
@@seoulmansupra ?…No, I’d argue that your very definition of a counter argument, is counter factual? In that, your comment was an example of a pointless reiteration. A counter argument, only qualifies as such, when entire premise that one responds to, doesn’t argue the very same exact point & sentiment, which they baselessly intended to counter, & yet only ended up underlining & totally agreeing with?…😖
I now have a new found respect for Ed!!! His stories are captivating and the channel has excellent delivery of all the content that you have made thus far, Enjoyed every minute of it. Bravo!!
Fantastic episode, and as a car guy, another reason why I love The Iced Coffee Hour! Ed is an amazing personality and always entertaining to listen to.
"I was never handed anything" - had a 5k-6k pet at 14 and a basement big enough to start a business breeding them with 100's down there. EDIT - Not trying to undercut Ed... I think he's a vessel of knowledge and I love listening to him.
I’ve seen Ed forever on YT, but didn’t know that much about him. So unique in that he can be so bold with his car trading, but be so down to earth and self-effacing at the same time. He could teach public speaking better than most. I could see him entering politics some day.
Jack talking about him videoing the cop running the stop sign is hilarious. Like wtf do you expect anyone to do? Report it to the police and move on. Is jack gonna be surprised to find out cops speed too?
In actual first world countries, you can submit that to the department. The police aren’t unionized so they’re unable to extort the people. Internal Affairs would coordinate the car number to whomever was on shift and they would be reprimanded.
I enjoyed this one. When I was 7 I'd ride my bike to the gas station to pickup an auto trader for $1. Then I moved up to drooling over DuPont Registry and Hemmings in the mid 90's through early 00's. This made me wanna go pickup a copy of the latest DuPont registry and dream like a kid again.
"How have you never lost money on a car?" Because Ed is like a tax auction house flipper, but with cars. Buys a turd, fixes it up, does some landscaping and marketing, and ends up selling it for only slightly below market for a hefty profit.
Ed is one of my favorite people in the car space. I will stop and listen to whatever he has to say, whenever he decides to open his mouth and say it. Awesome interview.
Well produced podcast, I am expecially impressed by the audio quality. Being able to capture a clean audio in such a big garage must have been a challenge
Notice how he danced around the albino iguana question on how he started that business, his parents bought him an albino iguana worth thousands plus the equipment to start breeding them.
Ed has very publicly said his parents indulged him in that hobby when he was incredibly young. He doesn’t dance around it, it’s just not that important to the overall growth he’s seen financially. He pretty much used his “unique” profession as a way to manipulate dealers into giving him test drives and potentially a car allocation.
Dude a stop sign in a parking lot isnt real...its private property. If u put a stop sign in ur front yard next to the road, its basically incorporeal to any drivers
I’m 30yo, bought an Alfa Romeo Giulia 2 years ago. I love the thing, amazing ride and it’s been reliable this far. But a year ago we had my baby daughter and now all I think about is reliability, maintenance, extra storage space. So this morning I’m at a Toyota dealer looking at a RAV4 Hybrid…never thought I’d see the day but here it is. I’ve had my fun with the Alfa, I can say I’ve experienced it. It’s now time to be more mature and buy something that will last. 40mpg baby! But don’t get me wrong , when retirement comes and kids are out to college, I will ball out on whatever halo sports car Alfa or BMW have (my two favs).
An almost 2 & a half hour podcast with not even a 2 second caveat about Ed’s Cannonball Run record..?! 🤔🤯 Ed even mentioned the book he wrote about his Cannonball Run time record, (more so about the front page letter he addressed to his son, i know), but still, there wasn’t a single incline/ mention about it..👀 smh. 🤦🏻♂️ What a huge missed opportunity.. to say the least! 😳🤯🤦🏻♂️ Otherwise, this was a great pod boys!! Love to see more of the “Automotive TH-camr” guests on the pod lately! Especially ones like this with Ed Bolian, who typically doesn’t do any long form content/ pods like this, so shoutout to yu guys for blessing us with these pods we’d otherwise never thought we’d see!!💯 Keep killin it boys, love the direction this podcast has been going lately!! 💯💯💯🙏🏼
Exactly! I keep telling my kids that their competition for employment is the least motivated, self-driven generation ever. I didn't even think about the management...
2:16:16 The irony of this is, otw home today I was going to grab a burger with an egg from this spot and I literally calculated that I’d save $3 if I just went home and put my own on egg in there myself, So I got 2 burgers and saved $6 😂
50:00 I was in Corvette Z06. Doing 150M.P.H. Got pulled over. It was a Sheriff Deputy. Generally our Sheriff Deputy's do not work traffic that much. We have a State Patrol office in town and they generally do traffic enforcement. The Sheriff looked at the car. He said do your tail turn signals head lamps work. I said yes. He said lets see. It was a brand new car. Than he asked me for my Lic and Insurance. He saw that my lic was expired. He said I am writing you a ticket for your expired lic. You have to go to court and show you renewed your lic. I thank him so much. It only costed me a couple of hours at sitting at the court house. I will take that deal anytime.
The thoughts about how much you don't care about is an interesting barometer. I suggest using that as a focus on saving. I also grew up with nothing but the good values my parents instilled in me. I worked and saved until I could retire without really any financial worries. In practice it has been a real relief to not have to worry as the stuff of life hits. The aircon packed it in, all the appliances needed to be replaced and then the dentist needed $7k without warning. Really nice to just pay the bills without a thought and be thankful I was able to work and save and now when those $10k bills hit and not think sweat it. Just live below your means, continually up the value for your services and save and invest.
Ed says he didn’t come from money or handed anything but yet he got a new Audi and his parents drove a rover lmao ok Ed. Guess your disconnected from the average teenager
Apparently none of you have had the pleasure of driving in Upper Allen township, PA. The local force led by James Miller will LOVE to give you a ticket for 5mph over. They even set vascar lines in the most obscure hidden spots as revenue generation. It’s predation at its finest. They are very polite and smile as they proudly hand you a 300$ ticket for tinted windows and the .0005 mph creep at a stop sign or 1 day of state safety inspection.
Thanks so much for stopping by. This was a lot of fun!
Absolutely!!
I hope you have a great night ed
I aspire to be Ed one day. I’m flipping early 2000’s Chevy sports cars right now. One day the exotics will be here in my hands.
loved this, revisited some of my favourite VinWiki stories with a little extra flavour 💙
Would you consider doing a podcast based on your faith testimony?
Quick! Everyone buy old, broken, high mileage Lamborghinis with terrible histories!
I buy old, broken, high mileage Pontiacs and Toyotas with terrible histories. It's almost the same, but not.
@@jonprager I buy BMWs and make them have terrible histories.
Already ahead of you (with mid 2000s audis)
Working on it now lol
My wife left me and took the kids
Ed has gotta be the most well spoken person I’ve ever heard. If you don’t believe me, watch cartrek. He does a review of a car while on a racetrack, and it’s absolutely astonishing.
It astounds me how good of an orator he is. I wouldn’t be surprised if he actively practices
No argument. He is our version of Jeremy Clarkson and pulls it off well.
@@Amphibiousmage
Watch Rob Pitts elegy that Ed gave. That guy sounds like a Pastor.
@@BKetch yeah I gained a lot of respect for him after learning about his faith. I remember when they were reacting to mean cartrek comments, he said one of the best things I’ve ever heard.

And he responded with “I don’t know who hurt you, but I’m sure it’s nothing that a smaller government and a loving Creator can’t fix”
Mic drop moment right there
Been loving all the car content interviews lately. Keep up the good work!
Glad you like them!
The subtle and dry jokes are the greatest things to every Ed story. 😅
I knew Ed would find a way to sneak in “Kimi do you have butt implants?”. I will always love that story lol.
😂
It's nearly a reflex at this point
He must get Kimi on the Vinwiki show some time.
@@johnathankain8033 he has said he’s trying to. She doesn’t want to be on while in jail.
You guys are on fire! Tavarish, Daddy Doug, now Vinwiki! You guys are unstoppable.
Hopefully more to come!
Don't forget strad. That was easily one of faves.
And Steve Hamilton!
And Damon from DDE
two and an half hours of Ed's soothing voice, time well spend! Thumbs up!
Thank you!
ED!!!! Graham and Jack, thank you so much for this. Ed is a gem in the YT auto space
Agreed!
1:30:32 I love how Ed just obliterated the “Frugal Millionaire” myth in 2 seconds
Guess I'm the frugal millionaire driving a Honda at 35 years😅
I met Ed at a rooftop party for Vossen wheels in Las Vegas a while back. I was a bit star struck but he is such a down to earth guy. He didn’t judge me as I stumbled over my words like a cat lady meeting Taylor Swift back stage.
A cat lady meeting Taylor swift 😂 great comparison
Totally agree I met him a month ago super nice guy.
What a foolish thing to say about a man
Graham at the end saying how beautiful it is there, applying Ed's advice as if he was talking to a cop
He learns quick!

the "take a break hula hooping" joke always gets me lmao 1:14:40
Flew over their heads lmao
When Kimmie shows up on VinWiki the internet will break.
Who?
Who?
@@KettleBell-md8phEd sold and later rebought a Lamborghini to a prostitute named Kimmie.
@@KettleBell-md8phjust keep watching it’s great lol
Iced Coffee Hour is one of the best podcasts. The range of topics on this show never leaves me disappointed
Fantastic episode, and as a car guy, another reason why I love The Iced Coffee Hour! Ed is an amazing personality and always entertaining to listen to.
Glad you enjoyed it!
so happy to see all these automotive infiuenceee being interviewed! amazing work yall!
More to come!
Me too. Love it
Thank you Ed for sharing the Gospel. That is the hope for all of our children
Ed demeanor and speaking is on another level!
100%!
What we really learn about Ed, is that, while Tyler is a real used car junkie, Ed is a driving masochist.
Ed is a great asset to used vehicle buying. The understanding explains precisely the process.
Ed Bolian is the only human on the planet who I will sit thru the iced coffee hour for
"I was never handed anything" - had a 5k-6k pet at 14 and a basement big enough to start a business breeding them with 100's down there.
EDIT - Not trying to undercut Ed... I think he's a vessel of knowledge and I love listening to him.
I’ve seen Ed forever on YT, but didn’t know that much about him. So unique in that he can be so bold with his car trading, but be so down to earth and self-effacing at the same time. He could teach public speaking better than most. I could see him entering politics some day.
Agreed! He’s an incredible speaker.

4:59 -The hand movement followed by the same movement in the background lmfao
This was the collab I didn’t know I needed in my life. More car guy finance content would be sick!
Didn’t know I needed this collaboration, but glad I got it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
My favorite episode of iced coffee hour yet
Thank you!
Yooo, this is an episode I’ve been waiting for. Especially being filmed after Ed Bought his Bugatti. Already know it’s gone be a great episode
Thanks for watching!
I typically wouldn't watch this long of a video, but I could listen to Ed tell stories all day long
Every part of that rental car business sounds like hell
I enjoyed this one. When I was 7 I'd ride my bike to the gas station to pickup an auto trader for $1. Then I moved up to drooling over DuPont Registry and Hemmings in the mid 90's through early 00's. This made me wanna go pickup a copy of the latest DuPont registry and dream like a kid again.

Great episode - very entertaining! Who doesn't love an Ed story. The man is a car guy / TH-cam icon - National treasure.
Ed is one of my favorite people in the car space. I will stop and listen to whatever he has to say, whenever he decides to open his mouth and say it. Awesome interview.
So many of my favorite TH-camrs have been crossing over lately and I’ve enjoyed every minute of it!
It is so cool to see how Ed started up in life and where he is headed! It would be the best to sit down and chat with Mr. VinWiki himself 😎
Vinwiki and iced coffee hour cross over loved it
Ed's connection to fallen police officers is a very remarkable part of his good will towards others.
Well produced podcast, I am expecially impressed by the audio quality. Being able to capture a clean audio in such a big garage must have been a challenge
Ed is a great guy. Enjoy when he comes on the PKA podcast
Pretty soon they will have him on lock and load
He's a shrewd negotiator lolll
Just hearing this guy speak makes me think I'm an Eskimo just about to close a deal on a large shipment of ice and being happy about it 😂😂😂
lmao love that the tavarish pod is on in the backround
This was the most unexpected way to end up on the iced coffee hour 😅 great to see Ed on here!
Hope you enjoyed it!
where did the time go … Sitting on fold-away chairs next to Ed Bolian at story time with a Bugatti backdrop - priceless. 😁😁
Can I get an audio track of Ed reading "Call of the Wild" to fall asleep to?
Notice how he danced around the albino iguana question on how he started that business, his parents bought him an albino iguana worth thousands plus the equipment to start breeding them.
Ed has very publicly said his parents indulged him in that hobby when he was incredibly young. He doesn’t dance around it, it’s just not that important to the overall growth he’s seen financially. He pretty much used his “unique” profession as a way to manipulate dealers into giving him test drives and potentially a car allocation.
Love hearing ed just talk!!! It doesn’t even have make sense 😂
The crossover I never expected but I'm so here for it
Great episode. Loved Ed's takes on the job market
Us too!
Ed dressed like he’s about to eat Christmas Eve dinner.
All I could hear was Joe from Family guy speak for over 2 hours 😂 Awesome interview 👌
Tyler, Freddy, and Ed. Plus the stradman and Houston, the ice coffee hour putting respect on the TH-cam car community 💪😎
they did doug too. !
Hey which is the Houston one? It's there a Houston TH-camr idk about?
"Possession is 9/10 of the law" 🤣🤣🤣 ... if you're pretending to be a lawyer that's the dumbest thing you can say.
This is the underdog story we can all enjoy and learn from
Killing it with the guests lately 🔥
Thanks!
Ed is such a great speaker. His car stories are legendary.
Ed is a great story teller
Ed, thank you for sharing your testimony in almost every interview. Thanks for this interview you guys get better and better with every interview.
Ed on iced coffee hour, Doug and mcm on ltt, I'm loving these collabs
Ed's owned just 64 cars? I'm surprised, maybe he's young like that quirky talk guy.
Ed knows that his twin brothers are renovating houses on a TV show in Canada?
The collab I didn’t know I needed. Just started watching, excited to listen through this whole thing!
I find Ed's casually discussing his faith while also discussing being stopped for double the speed limit to be rather ironic.
Been waiting for this podcast for over a year. DM’d Jack suggesting Ed as a guest quite some time ago
Ed is a great story teller and his channel is what got me to want to be into cars again
This is such a wild collab. Two channels that I’ve followed for a while in the same video???
last 30 mins of this were gold
Ed was spitting game those last 30min on the pod
Ahaha the tavarish playing in the background at the beginning is amazing
OMG this is the collab i needed.
Woohoo!
Dude a stop sign in a parking lot isnt real...its private property. If u put a stop sign in ur front yard next to the road, its basically incorporeal to any drivers

You got lil uzi Ed for an interview. So sick.
That's Big Eddie Vert to you!
@@EdBolian I absolutely stand corrected and will continue to adress you correctly Sir Big Eddie Vert. How rude of me.
I was waiting for this collab for so long
Ed is such a great storyteller!
Love Ed, and his life’s take.

Great episode guys thanks for having on such great guests on from all walks of life
Apparently none of you have had the pleasure of driving in Upper Allen township, PA. The local force led by James Miller will LOVE to give you a ticket for 5mph over.

@25:49
If you USE the INSURANCE they will NOT renew you?
How is that legal?
It’s a horrible system…same happens with houses
Loved the Christ & tithing talk at the end. Jesus saves!
Ed…..so much for the man you are!! Especially the great testimony of Jesus Christ…!
Curious , what church do you attend?
All the best!
just jim
The best crossover I’ve ever seen!! Let’s go!!
Woohoo!
