The layover purchase — driven home to Louisville.
After three days of meetings — great meetings, the kind that make the whole trip worth it — I was on my way home when the layover happened. I looked up at the board in Dallas and watched the whole thing turn red. Every flight delayed or cancelled.
I wanted to get home, and I didn't want to spend the next twenty-four hours doing it. So I bought a Bronco.
That's not a typo. I bought a car during an airport layover and drove it home to Louisville. I made it home faster than the flight would have gotten me there.
What am I going to do with a Bronco? Add it to the Turo fleet, obviously. #Win #Win.
Here's the thing about that day: the flight was the plan, and the Bronco was the pivot. The pivot got me home, and then it became an asset. A cancelled flight turned into a rental that pays for itself.
Sometimes the fastest way home isn't the flight you booked. It's the second option you didn't plan — the one with four-wheel drive.
Until the next run out — work hard, play hard.
