The King of Cars 

 

Josh Towbin

Josh 'Chop' Towbin, 30, aka The King of Cars, is the owner of the car dealership Towbin Dodge of Las Vegas, Nevada.

Towbin's dealership and staff are featured on the A&E television network program King of Cars. The program offers a behind-the-scenes look of the day-to-day business of Towbin's dealership, which is currently the #1 single-point used car dealership and the #2 single-point Dodge dealership in the entire United States.

Towbin started out washing cars for his father’s dealership at age 14. He sold motor scooters on the side, quickly reducing or 'chopping' the price down and earned the nickname, 'Chop'. He quickly rose to assistant used-car manager and has since opened his own dealership, Towbin Dodge. Chop also has a record label Tru Cents Entertainment, released a hip hop album, a clothing line and has a partnership with Dub Wheels.

Towbin has been called a master motivator and his team sales speak for themselves. Chop often calls on his employees and creates friendly competitions between the sales managers, promising a reward for the team with the most sales for the day. He may hand out cash to a successful salesman or, throw fireworks under the seat of others for motivation.

The dealership also has a bi-weekly show called the Chopper Show, that features new cars on the lot and deals. The show consists of many characters who are dressed up salesmen in costumes. These characters have become celebrities themselves, such as the Blue Genie, Emperor Two-Step, Big Sally from Green Valley and others. The show is enormously popular in Las Vegas and is estimated to be responsible for up to 80% of all of Chop's sales.

In 2003, Chop and Towbin Dodge were featured in an episode of the A&E show Take This Job, and in 2006 A&E began the new show, King of Cars.
