How A Texas Jeep Club Rebuilt After COVID
Episode 89
Thursday, 7 May, 2026
Jeep clubs don’t survive on mud alone. They survive when people feel welcomed, protected, and genuinely helped when something breaks on the trail. We sit down with Tim Mahaffey, President of the Lone Star Jeep Club, to talk about what happened to membership after COVID, why so many automotive communities quietly fade, and how a 30-year-old Texas Jeep club rebuilt momentum by getting serious about culture and member value. Tim shares how LSJC reframed the “why pay dues” question with practical perks like sponsor partnerships and a dealership service discount, plus a social media approach built on respect: one rule, no jerks. We also get into what makes a family-friendly off-road Jeep club work in real life, from certified trail leaders and planned runs to grouping drivers by difficulty so daily drivers and hardcore builds can both have a great day. You’ll hear about caravanning to out-of-state trails, the stories that happen at dinner after a long day of wheeling, and why training events like a Jeep 101 class can keep new drivers safe and confident. After the interview, we switch gears with Jeff’s Motor Minute and a laugh-worthy throwback Mother’s Day car ad, then drop into a detailed 2026 Kia K4 review. Don breaks down the K4’s hatchback styling, interior screens, cargo practicality, fuel economy, and the pricing reality that proves you can still find an affordable new car under $30,000 if you actually look. We close with a headline that raises eyebrows: Ford in discussions about potential defense projects and what that says about modern manufacturing and supply chains.
