ABOUT MAN OF THE FREE

The podcast by Luke Lunkenheimer,

Chairman of the CNY Drives Group of Dealerships

Luke knows what it means to work hard, and is the picture of redemption and living free. He turned a twenty-three-month stint in federal prison into the fastest growing used car dealership in Central New York. If you love honest and objective discussion about current events and trending social topics, Man of The Free is for you. Listen in as Luke and his diverse mix of business owners, celebrities, friends, and researchers shed light on topics without bias or spin. 

LUKE'S STORY

Broken and addicted to hard drugs, Luke made the worst decision of his life. In March of 2014, he executed a bank robbery, resulting in his arrest by the local police and sheriff's office. He was sentenced to twenty-three months in prison.

Instead of spiraling deeper into drug addiction and criminal status, Luke turned his life around. During his time in prison, he got sober, developed a love for bodybuilding, and read more books than he had in the twenty-nine years leading up to his sentence.

After prison, Luke rose to be the top salesperson for the nation's leading Ziebart franchisee. Following his success at Ziebart, Luke geared up for the next challenge: to open up a used car dealership.

Today, CNY Drives is the fastest-growing used car dealership in Central New York. Their vision is to open twenty-three dealerships – one for each month served in prison. In his personal life, Luke has a beautiful wife, Nikki, two lovely kids, and a mansion that belongs on MTV Cribs.
