Autistic Teen's 1st Car Sales Video

Ian decided to make an attempt at a car sales video with our new 2024 Hyundai Palisade SEL. I think he did pretty good for his first try. What do you think? If you're on the spectrum, let us know your dream job in the comments!

I'm an autistic guy in my 20s and have no interest in cars at all. But Ian's enthusiasm, calm and friendly demeanor (without being annoying like a lot of people trying to talk to you about cars) combined with his detailed, technical knowledge is actually holding my attention. You just want to listen to him because you can tell how truly passionate he is about this. He is not trying to brag with his knowledge nor is he "faking" any of this. People will appreciate that. I think if he continues practicing he will become a one of a kind car salesman that people will actually seek out BECAUSE he's different from the rest.

I've found people appreciate our "sincere passion" and are willing to listen and captivated even if they aren't interested in the topic. This might also just convince people to buy the car he's trying to sell. From one autistic person to another, keep going Ian, you're gonna be great! Glad you have such a supportive dad, too!

One of the best experiences in all of reality is listening to an autistic person explain something they have fixated on. It is genuinely the most informative, concise, and entertaining way to learn.


I wish I could learn everything that way.

WOW IAN!

One of my future careers would be a computer scientist, engineer, elevator installer, or car salesman.

I do car review videos every Wednesday at a car dealership and the boss is so nice. I have over 100 cars I have toured! :)

Edit: Great job Ian! I am so proud of you dude!

Wow he’s come a long way. Great job dad teaching him great skills.. loved the clip of younger Ian.

[lobsterboi.mp]

Very proud of Ian! I am like him but with computers. You can tell he knows so much that sometimes his mouth just isn’t fast enough to get it all out ( i struggle with that too). I think his knowledgability and attention to detail would make him a good driver someday!

Back in the 1980s people still needed to either keep their foot on the brake or use the emergency brake in stop and go traffic. Therefore it sounds like the SUV feature that Ian described in this video that makes this no longer necessary is a fairly new feature that many drivers would probably want.

You guys made a great team explaining the features of your new car. It looks like a great choice for your family to travel in.

Great video and very informative. Ian’s communication skills and they he explains things are great. Best of Luck to Ian and will make a great Car’s salesman.

[echofoxtrot.]

He will be the most honest car salesman ever. Honestly, it's better to run a business that way.

You and your wife deserve the best car possible. Congratulations on your new car. I hope you and your family will enjoy it in health and peace for many years.
Greetings from Türkiye 😊

I got a paliesade in 2021 and it’s a great car! We shopped all the suvs and this one made me say to my husband “it looks like a mom made it” lol the thoughtful features that even high end vehicles didn’t have. Super happy with it! I didn’t know about the nature sounds so nice for my autistic kid! Good job Ian! ❤❤❤
