Road Trip To The Savoy?

Memorial Day Show Kickoff

Don Armstrong 0:05

From our dual city studios in Texas, USA, it's the award-winning in real-time car talk show. Just ahead. We traveled to the Savoy, the Savoy Auto Museum outside Atlanta for part one of a fascinating interview with Mary Agrusa, plus Jeff's Motor Minute, and I'll review GMC's granddaddy SUV, the Yukon, as I like to call it, the Yukorn. Howdy, along with Mike out of this world marks. We always need more Jeff Seacon. I'm Don Armstrong, so glad that you could join us on this live edition of the Memorial Day weekend show on the In Wheel Time Car Talk Network. And I guess we could call it a network because it is. We're on so many platforms, I can't even begin to repeat all of them to you. We also record this for podcast purposes and um we do quite well in the podcast.

Jeff Dziekan 0:57

And for uh court purposes.

Don Armstrong 0:59

And court purposes in case you want to sue Mike. Yeah, because it's all on Mike. It's always it's always been on him. Mr. Morris, how are you over there?

Mike Marrs 1:07

Pretty good. A little wet this morning, but pretty good.

Don Armstrong 1:09

Well, that's good, yeah. We had a storm roll through here about three or four o'clock this morning. It blasted us all out of the bed. All meaning the dog and I. And the dog, at one point, when the thunder, the lightning, all of it crashed all around us, she got out of the bed and barked.

Mike Marrs 1:28

Barked at the Viking.

Don Armstrong 1:30

Which is exactly what I'm doing right now. So I want to read this because I thought well, Mary probably wrote it, but I think that it's good enough to repeat. Tucked into the rolling hills of Northwest Georgia, the Savoy Automobile Museum is quickly becoming one of the nation's premier destinations for automotive enthusiasts. Opened in 2021 near the renowned Telus Science Museum. This museum features a rotating collection of beautifully restored classics, muscle cars, race cars, and rare automotive treasures from across the decades. Its modern galleries, educational exhibits, and scenic driving roads nearby make it more than just a museum. It's an immersive celebration, a destination for car culture, design, engineering, and the stories behind America's love affair with the automobile.

Why The Savoy Museum Matters

Don Armstrong 2:22

So joining us now is Mary Argrusa. Mary, it's always good to see you. How have you been?

SPEAKER_00 2:27

Doing just fine. You know, I think there's something about whenever you call that we get rain. Because this is the third time I've been on with you and it's pouring rain. So thank you for sending us the rain. We needed it.

Don Armstrong 2:39

Hey, you know, uh you got to keep those peanuts growing out there.

SPEAKER_00 2:43

That's pretty much South Georgia. We have cattle up on this side.

Jeff Dziekan 2:46

Oh, cattle. Cattle grows too. There you go. Well, the rain is just marinating them.

SPEAKER_00 2:52

Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely. So, how are you guys doing?

Don Armstrong 2:55

Well, we're doing fine. We're thinking of a road trip, and that road trip's going to take us to Cartersville, Georgia. What do you think?

SPEAKER_00 3:02

Um, maybe around September 12th, the day of the car

Planning The September 12 Car Show

SPEAKER_00 3:06

show.

Don Armstrong 3:06

Well, tell us about that. Let's start with the car show that's coming up September the 12th.

SPEAKER_00 3:11

Okay, that will be on September the 12th. That will be our big show, and that will feature about 500 show cars.

Don Armstrong 3:18

Is what's inside, outside, or both?

SPEAKER_00 3:21

Uh outside will be the 500 car shows, and then inside will be all the regular exhibits.

Don Armstrong 3:26

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 3:27

So it it will be jam-packed.

Don Armstrong 3:29

And I was just gonna say, uh, and you're gonna have to uh actually cut down some uh foliage and trees around there to get all those 500 cars in?

SPEAKER_00 3:36

Uh no, we've got a really big lawn. I mean, a huge, huge lawn, but I think they are also looking at the option of doing some off-site parking. Uh, because we ran into a problem, a little bit of a problem this year. And with adding more show cars, yeah, it could get a little bit tricky. But that's that's not in my wheelhouse, so I don't have to deal with that problem.

Don Armstrong 3:54

Well, do you need somebody to come over there and drive the transportation buses from the parking lot over to the museum? Because I'll volunteer for that.

SPEAKER_00 4:02

Oh, I'm hey, come on over. I'm sure we can put you to work.

Don Armstrong 4:06

All right, very well. And listen, I don't take up much room when I sleep, so you can just put me in one of the closets within the museum.

SPEAKER_00 4:13

We have a lot of those here.

Don Armstrong 4:15

Yeah, I'm sure. And then I can come over there and say I'm out of the closet.

SPEAKER_00 4:19

There you go. Absolutely. We can even put you up on the roof if we really need to.

Don Armstrong 4:23

Okay, well, hey, uh, you know, anything, anything for the ratings, that's what we think here. So, Mary, let's talk uh let's talk about the Savoy. And that's what we call it, the Savoy, it's the Savoy Museum, Cartersville, Georgia, and uh 45 miles outside of Atlanta. So you're basically just a road trip away, uh less than an hour.

SPEAKER_00 4:43

Less than an hour from that, and just about an hour from Chattanooga. So we're right about in the middle of those two main cities, right off of I-75. Just about Chattanooga.

Don Armstrong 4:54

Chattanooga, yeah, Chattanooga, Tennessee. Isn't that the home of the famous moonpie?

SPEAKER_00 5:01

It might be. I'm not 100% sure of that. I know they do have they had the tow truck museum there.

Don Armstrong 5:08

Oh, see, there we go. We could do a museum tour, and maybe we could even do a moon pie museum tour. There you go. I'm sure they've got one.

Jeff Dziekan 5:15

I had a neighbor that uh used to her name is uh Annabella Cunningham from Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Mike Marrs 5:20

Yeah, don't they have a train there?

Jeff Dziekan 5:22

Uh Chattanooga choo choo.

SPEAKER_00 5:24

Yes, they do. And certain at certain times they will take a steam train from Chattanooga down to Somerville, Georgia, where they have the the uh the round the turn it around and you can see the round table, the round table, and then they'll take you back up to Chattanooga. And we've done that ride, and it's really nice.

Don Armstrong 5:42

I love it. So let's talk about let's talk about the Savoy.

Location And Nearby Road Trip Ideas

Don Armstrong 5:46

Anything happened in the past year since we've talked to you last?

SPEAKER_00 5:50

Oh. Well, uh our the curator who was here, who who I worked under, he is now the interim director director out of the LeMay in Washington State, and our director of development is now the curator. So it was a very seamless transmission in terms of if somebody in in-house who is very familiar with you know how the museum works made the transition.

Don Armstrong 6:14

And then so he went to the LeMay up there in Washington, D.C. Is that where they made the material called LeMay? I actually wore a LeMay suit one time, I had to admit.

SPEAKER_00 6:25

No, I I I think that I think Mr. LeMay made his money in trash, in waste disposal, I think is where the money came from. It's a it's a it's a huge place. He actually went out there as a curator. He's now acting as the interim director because they have to their director has stepped down, so he's filling two roles. And then we had the fun of the exhibit for February and the exhibit for March, due to circumstances beyond our control, dropped out. But because we had enough cars of our own, we were able to host exhibits to fill those holes. And then, unfortunately, or fortunate, unfortunately, in March, our founder, who was 93 years old, passed away. And so that was the end of an era there when he he died. But he was 93. Um, and it was just, you know, he was doing very, you know, for a 93-year-old guy did very well, but it was just finally mentally sharp

Leadership Changes And Founder Legacy

SPEAKER_00 7:20

as attack, but just everything just physically.

Don Armstrong 7:22

You know what? I'm following right in his footsteps. I'm headed to 93 as fast as I can get there.

SPEAKER_00 7:28

Hey, he was 93 years old and having fun. I mean, that's what he would tell you.

Don Armstrong 7:32

So and a car guy, obviously.

SPEAKER_00 7:34

Oh, very much so, a car guy, but also collected Western art, was very into science, which explains why we have the three museums that we do. Uh, and very much the philanthropist, when he sold his business and got out of, he basically was in the cable uh TV show, TV Studio Network, way back when it started. And so when he sold that all out, he started putting his money into building museums, has done a lot of work here in Cartersville that most of the time nobody will ever know about.

Don Armstrong 8:04

So you you didn't tell me you didn't tell me, Mary, that there are two other museums. Are they all under the Savoy umbrella?

SPEAKER_00 8:10

Uh no, we're we are all under what is called uh GMI, Georgia Museums Incorporated. So we have the Booth Western Art Museum that is downtown. That has the largest permanent collection of Western art in the United States. Not necessarily all on view at the time, but the composite of what the museum owns. Uh, about three miles up the road from here is the TELAS Science Museum that originally was just this little place called the Wyme and Mineral Museum. He bought that, uh expanded it into the TELUS, and I think they just added like another 20,000 feet of exhibit space out there because they're gonna start bringing in rotating exhibits, except not on the crazy schedule that we do.

Don Armstrong 8:50

So um let me ask you this at the museum, how much how many vehicles do you have on display under roof?

SPEAKER_00 8:58

Oh, you mean right at

How A Rotating Car Exhibit Works

SPEAKER_00 9:00

right now? I'm gonna say probably close to maybe close to 50, maybe a little bit more. Um because I think there's 15 convertibles, I think there's 12 Corvettes, I think there's 12 Woody's, five letter cars, six cars from the um the ACA. So probably about 45 to 50, and a whole bunch more in the building in the back.

Don Armstrong 9:28

What's what the building in the back? Is that like the storage building?

SPEAKER_00 9:32

Yeah, yeah. We have about a hundred, we have about 160 cars, give or take, altogether, that we own, but they they're not all out here at one time. We only have one gallery that is dedicated to the cars we own, although right now all the cars in the Woody's and all the cars in the AACA are also all ours as as in addition to the regular Savoy gallery.

Don Armstrong 9:52

So when you bring out the so when you bring out all of do you bring out all of the cars at the big shindig in September?

SPEAKER_00 10:00

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Uh we really leave it open for everybody else to bring their cars out. Uh, we did bring one out one time in in our trailer because we can put the car in the trailer and then open up the sides. And we had just been given a fully restored Volkswagen Beetle, and so we had that in there. And I think we had somebody else last year who was using it just sort of as a display thing. But between all the people that come in with the cars, all the vendors, uh, and then all the people that are coming to the show, we we couldn't bring all of our cars out. I mean, it would just take too much.

Jeff Dziekan 10:34

Mary, uh uh, when you when you display the cars, when you have these uh rotating uh events going on, how long do the cars stay on display before you change them out?

SPEAKER_00 10:46

Four months.

unknown 10:47

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 10:48

So so when an exhibit rolls in, it's here for four months, and that's one of the challenges because when we have to borrow, not so much from another museum, but say like from another individual, they have to realize we're gonna tie the car up for four months. And especially as we come in now to car show season, where there are cruisings and car shows, if we have to borrow from an individual, it gets a little bit tricky to borrow from people during this time of the year.

Don Armstrong 11:13

Yeah, but I'll bet you that most of those people that you ask and they go, yes, we'll do that, just to say that we've got our car in the Savannah.

Jeff Dziekan 11:22

They have multiple cars that they can, you know, maybe do away or have one go for four months and really not miss it. Right.

SPEAKER_00 11:28

Um, not necessarily. Not necessarily. No, no, no, no, no. And I mean, when we had the Ferraris in here, we had to pull one out early because it was it was shipped over to Italy, going to a special show over there, but it also went down to Palm Beach. We had the Corvette Singray Racer, they pulled that out for a weekend because the uh president of GM was down in Florida and he pulled it out for a car show at the yacht club. So, I mean, things do sometimes get pulled out, and sometimes if we know it's gonna come in like a little bit late or have to leave a little bit early, that that works out okay. But it's not like you can have it for two months and then we're gonna pull it out. That may not necessarily work unless it's something that is so unique that we'll say, okay, for that short period of time. Be worth it.

Don Armstrong 12:15

So I have to I have to ask, were you the one that drew the short straw in driving the Corvette from the Savoy down to the yacht club in Florida?

SPEAKER_00 12:25

No, actually, um, we have two cars here from from GM Heritage. Uh, they come, they actually bring the car in the building and they come and they take it out. And it is stanched, we're not even allowed to dust it. If we have to move that car, they will come and move it. So

GM Heritage Corvettes And Museum Rules

SPEAKER_00 12:45

I I did not get to drive that car. I wish I did because oh boy, when he started that car up, it is sweet. But no, and they considered that the rumor is that if the building up there burns down, that's the one car that they're gonna pull out.

Jeff Dziekan 13:00

Wow. So if we send Mike up there to visit with you, can you keep him for four months?

SPEAKER_00 13:04

Oh, we we could probably find something for him. In fact, here is here is a single racer. Let me get it on here.

Jeff Dziekan 13:12

Very nice.

Don Armstrong 13:13

Yeah, uh, what is that that don't touch it. So that would be a C2.

SPEAKER_00 13:20

No, this is a C nothing. This was 1969. This was Bill Mitchell's race car, and he had this commission. Uh, it actually did run. He did race it. It was uh Peter Brock, Larry uh Larry Shinoda, and Tony Lapino were the three that did this in Project X. It was done, it was raced, and when it was raced, there was nothing on it that said GM, nothing on it that said Chevrolet. Because at that point, they were not they they were not officially in racing. And so even though everybody knew that it was a GM product, they all knew where it got built because, of course, it's Bill Mitchell's car. Um it it officially was not a GM product, but this was sort of like while they were doing this, this was also the prototype they were starting to design the stingray at the same time, and so that's where they came out with the idea of the stingray. Um, and it's a beautiful, beautiful car, but it's a little hard photographing it because the stanchions are like really far out, and I can't get close.

Jeff Dziekan 14:27

That's okay. That's that was for my next question. So when the when the museum is closed and the last guest leaves and you're locking the doors, do you find yourself going over there just sitting in the driver's seat going vroom, vroom, vroom, you know, turning the wheel?

SPEAKER_00 14:40

And uh no, because the security cameras were are all on both sides, and I would be out the door in a heartbeat, maybe even with a police escort. No, no, no, no, no. Uh if if it's in here, no, I I mean I wish I don't give me, I mean, when they come to pick it up, and the day that this exhibit ends, they are picking it up that night and taking it home. So they are very, very picky about it.

Don Armstrong 15:06

But well, how long are that car? How long is that car gonna be there?

SPEAKER_00 15:10

Uh probably another week. Next Sunday, the the Corvettes, all the Corvettes that we have exhibit will close, and so they will come pick up this, and then we also have their manta ray. It is another manta ray.

Don Armstrong 15:24

Oh my god, yes, the famous manta ray.

SPEAKER_00 15:28

Yeah, I mean, we love the dashboard in there that has nothing on it because everything is on it all on the console. Beautiful, beautiful car.

Don Armstrong 15:37

And of course, it has man, I remember, I remember when that came out, it was on the cover of every car magazine in the world. Is that a right-hand drive?

SPEAKER_00 15:45

No, uh, no, left. It's left.

Mike Marrs 15:48

I think her camera's back.

SPEAKER_00 15:51

Okay. Sorry, guys.

Don Armstrong 15:52

But you're you're good. Don't do it, don't don't touch it. Don't touch it.

SPEAKER_00 15:56

And I mean, and and and I'll mention too, like, if I don't know if you can see really close. Like, the paint on this is not perfect. This is the original paint. This is how this is how it was from the very beginning. What I love about this though is this little goody in the back. And if you look at the back end, you can see that there are these flaps that come up. And the the tail lights are all the way down here. So if you happen to be behind this car, you never see when you hit the brakes. But if you hit the brakes for your turn signals, this will lift up. There's a light that comes up and will hit a mirror under here and shine so the driver behind you theoretically could see where they were going, that you were gonna hit the brakes. And when we've been doing the tours, I've said to people, you know, now how long did it take us to put a brake light up where you can see it, you know, on cars today. But they were doing it here. But in 39, when the grand brothers did the shark note, where they had those big pontoon fenders, they're back, their tail light was back on the top of that fender, so that you if you hit the brakes, you could see somebody was hitting the brakes on that car. But it just takes us what about almost half a century to come up with something closer.

Don Armstrong 17:09

So, Mary, we're we're out of we're out of time for this segment. So um come up, come up with something for our next segment, which is gonna be the top of the next hour, and we're gonna let you guide us around the museum in the next segment, okay?

SPEAKER_00 17:22

How about some woodies?

Don Armstrong 17:24

Love that. Yeah, that's right off the top. Love it. All right, so we'll talk to you then. All right, thank you. All right, bye. Uh, Mary Argrusta, Savoy Museum, Cartersville, Georgia. We'll love talking to her. All right, just ahead, Jeff's motor minute, and a review of the new GMC UConn when the in-wheel time car talk show continues right after this break.

Motor Minute Lifetime Warranty Comet

Don Armstrong 20:12

Motor Minute.

Jeff Dziekan 20:13

Yeah, have you ever bought an extended warranty? Well, there's a young lady by the name of Rachel Vitech. She purchased a lifetime warranty on her 1964 Mercury Comet. All the parts. The car now has over 500,000 miles, and here's how it goes. Uh Rachel has had the car for more than 50 years. She named the car Chariot. Well, we always name a car. But this is a 64 Comet Caliente. She originally bought it for $3,289. Yeah. So she purchased lifetime warranties for the parts. And it's a sound investment, and here's why. Nearly 50 years of ownership, as we discussed. To ensure uh that the car would last, she purchased the parts with all warranties and uh to have five minus buffers, lifetime warranty guarantees, had seven stocks replaced from had three lifetime batteries for pennies, and now pennies is part of Firestone, or Firestone replaces them. Firestone has put in 16 batteries for her since 1964. She took the car for service and she doesn't leave the service area bay. It stays by the car. It even brings a map or a diagram of what parts she has under warranty and what parts she has replaced. Now this has been going on since 64. Uh Rachel has since passed away. She passed away at the age of 94. And in her uh eulogy, the car was actually mentioned with all of the service work that was done. Where is the car today? The car is uh she actually wanted to contact Jay Leno when she finally stopped driving it to see if he would buy it. Jay never got back with her, and she has passed away, so I think it's probably part of the family. But yeah, she purchased a warrant. The car now has five hundred and seventy six thousand miles on it, uh and it's still around somewhere. And the battery.

Don Armstrong 22:00

Are still working.

Jeff Dziekan 22:00

Batteries are still working.

Don Armstrong 22:02

Not like that. Time now for this hour's

2026 GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate Review

Don Armstrong 22:05

car review. I had an opportunity to drive the brand new 2026 GMC UConn built in Arlington, Texas, USA. They built all of those big those big suburbans, all of that. The escalate, all that's come comes out of Arlington, which they just recently expanded to make it even bigger than big, which it is. So it's classified as a standard SUV, body on frame, or truck. It comes in these trim levels: the elevation, the AT4, the Denali, the AT4 Ultimate, and the Denali Ultimate. It's three rows of seating, up to eight people, fifth generation introduced in 2021. It is really something else. I had the Yukon four-wheel drive AT4 Ultimate. Wait till you hear the price. Exterior features include great big square body, SUV-like suburban type, big grille with the GMC emblem almost as big as the grille itself, slab sides with concentric wheel openings, sharp-looking rear hatch, and lighting. What I liked about it? GM has made it different than the Chevy Tahoe, which would be its counterpart. This is kind of like a step up from the Chevrolet line. They use better materials, uh fancier stuff. It's not at the escalate, so this kind of sits in the middle between the Chevrolet version and the Cadillac version. What could use improvement? I don't know. Uh interior highlights. Comfortable, but upscale, rugged seating surfaces. Huge vertical infotainment screen. Kind of you see it right there. Yeah. Kind of uh a Tesla type lookout. Oh uh dash well laid out with ginormous center console. That's the center console. Screens for the second row passengers and a center screen in the second row for the AC controls. So if you don't like the way mom and dad has got the AC set, you can sit back there and fiddle with it, turn on the heat throughout the cabin and burn them out. Cargo. Uh well, it's huge back there in the back, uh, with the third row down, obviously with the third row up, not as big. What I liked about it, the overall, overall cowboy luxe treatment that this thing gets. What could use improvement? Absolutely nothing on the interior. I wouldn't touch it. They did good. I like the double stitching. I do too. Everything about it is just super. 6.2 liter EcoTec 3 V8 engine, turns out 420 horsepower, 460 pound feet of torque on a 10-speed automatic transmission. Uh toll rating up to four tons. Wow. That's 8,000 pounds if you're not doing the math right. Um now mileage, 14 city, 18 highway for combined to 16. I busted the seams at 17.8 miles per gallon over 411.9 miles. What I liked about it? The plenty of smooth V8 power. They ain't nothing like a naturally aspirated V8 engine, in my opinion. Uh, what could use improvement? Offer a hybrid, which I'm sure that they probably will ultimately. Ride and handling. Air ride suspension with magnetic shocks. Awesome. What could use improvement? Nothing here either. This thing rides like a limousine. Okay, let's get down to the numbers, shall we?

Jeff Dziekan 25:54

Shall we?

Don Armstrong 25:55

Base trim price. $97,900. That's base trim. Price is tested. $103,190. I was gonna go $102. It's just a song. Just sold for $102. Now the base model price, if you could find one out there, the entry level price of this is basically $70,000, $69.6. Okay, so here are the competitors. If you want to call it a competitor, it's just at a different level because it's a Chevy, the Chevy Tahoe starts at $60,700. The Ford Expedition, I was surprised at this. $577 is where it starts off. And the Kia Carnival, which I had recently, it starts at $37,390. Well, how can you compare the two? Size.

Mike Marrs 26:44

Yeah.

Don Armstrong 26:44

The size. That's that's where it compares. What were you gonna say, Mike?

Mike Marrs 26:47

That's what I was gonna ask. Is that the same size?

Don Armstrong 26:50

It is. It's called a standard SUV. If you remember correctly, I mentioned that in the review of the Carnival that it is classified as a standard SUV, which this is as well. All right, next week I'm gonna review the Land Rover Range Rover. All right. I think that you'll appreciate it. I know I appreciated them letting me borrow it for a week to test drive it. Um it's different. It's different than this, it's different than the Escalade. I mean, it's very English. I would say European. Yeah, it's very English, and it maintains that dignity.

SPEAKER_01 27:36

I was gonna say, where's my gin and tonic? You don't have any tonic blasphemy. Just have a ship lease.

Mike Marrs 27:44

You mentioned the differences between the Chevrolet and the GMC. You know, unfortunately, I'm old enough to remember when the GMC was the work truck level. That was kind of like this is the working man's truck. He moved up to the Chevrolet, and now it's kind of GMC is now a little bit more luxury than chevrolets.

Don Armstrong 28:01

And so since Mike's going to talk about age, Mike just had a birthday. He's turning 87 now. So we can wish him.

Mike Marrs 28:09

Thank you
