Jerry, Jerry, you never say "it looks the same"!!! My hairdresser said she had a client that made the leap from long hair to very short, and her husband didn't notice for 2 days! They said, "sounds like time for a new husband!" You don't want to be in that category.😳 Linda, both you and your hair are adorable.🤗

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

😄😄😄❤❤❤😄😄😄

[@bobbistanovich8179]

Keep spreading your happiness, you two! 😊

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you! Will do!

[@tod3msn]

1971 Buick Centurian that was good for 2 years and then pooped the bed. It just fell apart. The first two years were wonderful with my old Buick Centurian.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

😁😅🤣😅😁

[@Moolarkey]

I got my license at 16, 1972. My brother gave me a 1966 fastback mustang for my first car.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Sweet ride!!!!!

[@jholcomb9532]

I paid $100 for a 1965 red Chevy Impala, black leather interior. My older brother gave it to me and a family friend did repair work on it for $100, which was all I had saved up as a teenaged babysitter and part-time waitress back in 1973. Sold it when we got married to a collector who was going to restore it.

[@AndreaWalen]

I’ve watched every video, and as informative and funny as they are, the “Blooper Break” is always my favorite part. You two are adorable!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

[@jerrybell6786]

My first car was mom's old 1974 Dodge Duster, Green w/gold flecks and white "sports" stripe. It had vinyl bench seats, am radio and the only A/C was the door on the floor by your feet that you could open. The best feature was the high beam switch was on the floor. I had that till the frame rusted completely. My next car was dad's old 1980 Datsun 210 wagon (red) w/200K miles. It was awesome for me because it had A/C and FM/AM radio w/cassette player. I was stylin. 🚙

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Same here!

[@housethathammerbuilt]

Linda, your hair looks beautiful - AS ALWAYS!! You’re a lucky man, Jerry!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Yes I am!

[@kimberlyreynolds5421]

I have shrunk too Linda! I was shocked to hear I was 5 feet tall…I was still waiting to grow to 5 foot 3 inches and never made it! Soon I’ll be under 5 foot like my Grandmother was!

[@sparkleevenmore9638]

lol “old women shrink” Linda omg. I’ve lost about an inch over the years! I’m now 5’9” 😂

[@karenanderson6495]

This brought back memories of my parents' Gold Duster. I remember driving it until I got my first car...a very cool Toyota Celica, stick shift...it will always be my favorite car! Great show with lots of good information!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thanks for watching.

[@GoldWingnut]

Always a great show, I enjoy it every week.

[@kirstenlaird5060]

That's great news about insurance!!!

[@stephannielyman7704]

The year we were married 1967 husband bought a new Pontiac lemans and paid cash . I know it was less than three thousand dollars. We had it for 10years .

[@believer2734]

Love you guys! Such a hoot. I love to hear you laugh & just enjoy life!

[@albertmarchionda2961]

Thanks!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you Albert! You are always so kind and generous. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Our pleasure!

[@bellabond3015]

Thank you very much for mentioning my praise in your great broadcast. That pleases me!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Our pleasure, Bella!

[@KimberlyManuel-ee3ov]

I had a 1974 hand me down green Plymouth duster with 3 on the floor, no air and it would not go over 55 mph but all the guys at school thought it was cool. Next car was a 1975 gold duster automatic with air. Now my brother has a purple duster from the early 70s with him in The Villages and in January 2024 he won The Villages Cruise-In Peoples Choice Award in a car show.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Wow! That's great!

[@janetpartyka5968]

Love the Bloopers. Thank you for the laughs. :)

[@ghowardgilbert2281]

My first car was a 1964 Dodge Coronet 440 that I inherited from my Aunt. Big trunk as it was able to hold 4 people when we went to the drive in!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

😆😆😆Nice!😆😆😆

[@jpfautsch]

Happy Monday Jerry and Linda, you both have a talent for making people smile and laugh, and your good-natured spirit is contagious. Thank you for bringing laughter and joy into our lives! Have a great week!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thanks so much, Janet!

[@jpfautsch]

@@JERRYANDLINDA 😍

[@goofygirl1311]

The first car I drove as a teenager was a 1970s Dodge Dart (don't remember the year). That is great news to hear about insurance rates!

[@janderaubenolt3615]

The partial eclipse is underwhelming. Now, the total eclipse was indescribable! Partial and total have nothing in common. Saw it from our driveway in Ohio.

[@bellabond3015]

You have really good correspondents and categories meanwhile, I’m really excited what you will bring in future.

[@frannader2739]

Solved the scramble. It's a natural thing to do. We've been through the home insurance musical chairs. Challenging, but worth the effort to change companies for a better value. Glad you're pointing out good things to be found in Leesburg.

[@deniseinflorida6624]

Great hair, Linda!! Perfect for a busy lady

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you, Denise!

[@marywilson1948]

Always double the Fun with Jerry & Lovely Linda!! Hugs!!😍

[@BA-xj9ew]

We have a Florida house in Polk County. Never turned on the heat last winter. The Villages is a bit north, but you are not going to be running the heat pump too much.

[@Docjuice2021]

I purchased a 1971 Plymouth Duster for $185 in 1980 while in high school. Got me through senior year😊

[@lisaconway4847]

Thanks for a great show! I am absolutely loving that Linda loves collards! Me too Linda!

[@GaryWinkel-ne5sp]

Hi. I hope the insurance crisis does get better soon. Ken’s response in very encouraging since I hope to buy a home in TV within 4 to 5 years.

[@glowc2911]

Linda, wow. Your hair looks amazing and you too!

[@CStebby]

My first car was a '65 Rambler Classic. My second was a '71 Datsun 310 GX

[@jmccar12]

Good day from Barry and John Beverly Hills Florida , we love your program and watch often , We do pray the insurance situation gets better . We are not in the villages but have friends there and love visiting when we can .

[@mkulseth52]

Wonderful show. Great insurance info.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thanks, Mike!

[@barbromano9975]

Love the new hairdos ✂️✂️

[@nancysmall9793]

Your haircuts look very nice and and your hair always looks great, Linda.. .dont worry.

[@sandrahartje9974]

my first car was a 1958 Volkswagen 😊❤

[@user-di6kx8ns1y]

1972, sixteen years old I bought a 1964 Ford Falcon, 289 & three on the tree. We were the same when looking for a house, it found us, we are near Spanish Springs. Our new insurance company sent an inspector to look at our house before approving us, everything passed and we switched to them. Thirty days later we received a letter listing things they wanted us to do in order to not cancel the insurance. They gave us thirty days to complete. So , buyer beware the insurance companies still have all the power. Ybull of Del Mar

[@sandadm4956]

Linda looks great today! Love the new shorter look.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you!!

[@pamsacco6299]

Morning mailbags!! Hi Amy! 🙂👍❤

Linda….your new doo looks great!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

❤❤❤

[@vickig7261]

Like both hairstyles!

[@brendathompson2503]

My 1st car was a 1973 avocado green Ford Maverick also with a stick shift. Thanks for another great visit today. See you next time😘

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

But I remember that car and I remember that color.

[@jameswinters7920]

My first car that actually ran 😁 was a 55 OLDS I bought in 70. Indiana BMV Used to be a mess but they greatly improved their system. Hoping to see our Treasure Island favorite Beachside Motel and John’s Pass friends late May early June

[@peggyjones5494]

Love the video, Love you guys

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@tarakennedy3041]

People are opting out of having insurance. Especially in condos.

[@robertauhrig1947]

Watching replay today! You two surely are full of so much important information. Thanks for always being so upbeat! Love your shows !!! ♥️♥️

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you Roberta!

[@lindakeller992]

❤love Linda’s new hairstyle

[@berniekirk1397]

1967 Ford Galaxie, picked it up Thursday evening, wrecked it Friday afternoon on the way home from football practice. I guess the 390 cubic inch engine was a bit too much for me. Next car was a 1969 Pontiac Tempest with a 6 cylinder. Had that car for quite a while.

[@cptsuits8038]

Had a 68 convertible, yes the 390 was fun

[@dakotajarvis5356]

1972 Dodge Dart with a Bose stereo , 8 track and no a/c. It did come with 2 vents you could open below the dash. $250 used.

[@lauramoore7337]

Like Linda's too!

[@rickjohnsen9953]

when I was 16 my grandparents gave me their 1964 Galaxie 500, It was salmon pink color, my friends gave me so much guff about its color (as you can imagine) I parked it 2 blocks from school to avoid the embarrassment. I had no choice, it was the free car or nothing! keep up the good work in the videos!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

LOL!!!!!

[@samo8204]

I really REALLY enjoy your videos. I think I like the bloopers the best.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@stevenwilburn235]

Your hair-doos look great!!! My first car 1973 Ford Maverick. Enjoy your shows every week. Thank you for all the hard work.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

We remember those Ford mavericks.

[@sallypriest4363]

My first car was a 1977 Datsun B-210!! Love the bloopers!

[@beachbum6351]

My first car was 1967 convertible firebird. Got when I was 18 back in 1977 and wrecked it when I was 19! I miss that car.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

That was a keeper!

[@micheleharper4276]

My first car was a 61 Dodge Dart. I'd love to have it back.

[@lindasheaffer]

Hi Linda and Jerrry, There are a lot of people that have gas heat, gas cooking, and gas dryer. The other day you talked about the pools. I am pretty sure you are not suppose to swim/do laps in the senior pools and family pools. Only swimming in lap pools at the regional rec centers.

[@user-yx2ex2od9l]

My first car was a used black 1976 Pontiac Firebird that I purchased for $800.

[@roxannboeckman4719]

Very fun show!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you!

[@hollyfaraldi537]

Thanks for the shout out 🥰 Good news regarding the insurance company issue as we have a 10 year old roof. Cute video, the question that was animated. Very clever.😉

[@Rose_K.]

My first car was a 74 baby blue Plymouth Duster! My dad covered the bench seat with powder blue synthetic bathroom carpet and I often had to remove the air filter cover and put a pencil in the butterfly to start it! It was ten years old and lasted thru me to my little brother. We still don’t speak about his tenure with “Betsy”!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

LOL!!!!

[@ScottDube1]

This was a good one! I love how you two have really gotten good at this! To watch how far you've come must be very gratifying! Thanks for the hard work! We'll be back in TV next week!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

❤❤See you when you get here❤❤

[@pattiebravata7462]

You're both looking wonderful. Thank you for the time you put into bringing us your videos. Love, love, love them!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you so much!❤❤❤❤

[@joeguarnieri4026]

Guys, my house here in Virginia Trace has a gas furnace just like the on I had in Connecticut. Keep up the good work!

[@user-yf9cb6ke1j]

My first car was 1974 Plymouth Duster …. Yellow

[@ellens3303]

LOVE the hair Linda!! First car.....my older brother's 1972 Ford Maverick.

[@ellenwhite7173]

My first car was a 1976 Chevy Monte Carlo with a “landau” roof! My first new vehicle I bought myself that is

[@billredding2000]

My first car was a 1958 Triumph TR3...but my BEST car of all I've had was a 1973 Datsun 1200 Coupe: Odometer broke a bit before 400K miles, and who knows how many more 100K miles I drove over the years afterwards until forced to give it up after 32 years of ownership (couldn't find parts for it anymore). -- BR

[@janiceflores8922]

1968 Chevy Nova 😊

[@judycherry9074]

Linda, your hair looks beautiful! I like Jerry's summer haircut, too. 👍

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you so much!

[@suelewis3297]

My first car was a 1976 blue Chevette! I loved it. A stick shift with a AMFM radio!! It was brand new and ordered. I paid $3,000 for it! It was my nursing graduation gift from myself. I graduated from Ball State November 1975!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Go Cards go!

[@kristenschnese6980]

My parents had. Chevette I loved it they hated it Dad was in the way home fro teaching one day when the transmission went out he had to drive on the hwy in 2nd gear at least that’s the story I remember.. but I had fun driving it

[@evazee772]

Hi Jerry & Linda, this is such a great segment . Awesome with the information provided. You answered all my questions. Love you guys!!!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@kmaynor16]

Thank you for the video! My first car was a 1969 American Rebel SST, and I loved it. I like both of your summer cuts. Hopefully, the insurance crisis gets better, but I'm waiting to see if that turns out to be true. The meteorologists say that this will be the worse hurricane season ever in Florida, so that may scare away the insurance companies again.

[@kylereed980]

Jerry, Linda will always be 10ft tall to me, what a great mailbag, you two are the best, hair looks great, and you both have so much more to come.. thank you...❤

My first car was a 1974 Volvo.

[@billyrayband]

The Villages have passed the threshold of priced far exceeding value. Need to do a time out on buying and building.

[@markryan3124]

Thanks for another great video! We live near the Sea Breeze rec center and have a natural gas furnace in our home (gas stove, dryer, and water heater as well). Thanks to you, I am a BIG fan of OakWood as well. Great food and service.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you, Mark.

1963 Plymouth Valiant Signet

[@Lucillecat759]

My first car was shared with sibling. Blue amc matador. 1972. 5 years old. I like both your haircuts. They look great.

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

A Matador!

[@allenbeasley9791]

I think it is a sun screen for the back deck and maybe for air flow.. My first car was a 1971 Pontiac LeMans used for $2000.

[@MPerski]

‘63 Ford Falcon My wife, Diane’s first was a VW Beetle Bug We too, love our home here in Newell (south of 44); like you said, “checked all our boxes”. But everyone has different criteria. To answer your viewers question, there is no good or bad neighborhoods. All are wonderful, and most all Villagers are happy where they are. But … I know a lot of people are waiting for Eastport to open, and are planning to sell their current home and move across the turnpike. But again, everyone likes different things (close to a Square, or shopping, privacy, golf course view, a preserve, retention pond, etc, etc) … and of course, the right house to make your home. 🏡

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you for sharing!

[@trudyf8733]

Looking good kids 😘

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you 😊

[@kathyschaffer9678]

My first car in 1977 was a $1,000 Dodge Dart Swinger. First new car was a 1980 Ford Pinto hatchback for $4,000. Oh how times change.

[@debbiejenkins5909]

Linda you look amazing!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you so much Debbie!

[@karenstasik2979]

My dad gave me a 1964 1/2 - 1st model - mustang. Stock. Let me get it painted too. 😍 Loved that car.

[@Sally-te6gf]

Linda, I think your hair looks great! It makes you look younger! We go to Brandi’s also. My husband insists on having Brandi cut his hair.

[@oceandreamer1958]

Happy Monday! My first car was a 1968 Plymouth Fury. I loved that car! It was huge. I paid $125.00 for it. My grandfather had passed away, and I was offered his car. It was a Comet. It looked like an old person’s car to me. 😂So, I passed on it!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

A beauty of a car!

[@SFL323]

I’m a fan of the summer toupee 👍

[@NeedtoSpeak]

Gas heat would make no sense in TV. Heat pumps provide heating and cooling in one unit. Gas heat equipment would not be used enough to warrant the expense of a free standing heater unit coupled with a separate AC unit.

[@amandahood7809]

You two look great in that beautiful blue color! My first car was a white 1978 Oldsmobile Delta 88, loved that car. Great show again! Have a great week!

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Oldsmobiles were great cars.

[@user-rr9ok5vj1i]

1973 Ford Torino Grand Sport, 351 Cleveland, baby blue, crager wheels, rusted holes in the roof-had to put bondo so the rain would stop leaking through haha. Spray painted the roof black. Ran good, looked rough. Love the show

[@JERRYANDLINDA]

Thank you very much.
