Hub City Ford’s roots go back to 1918, when Todd Citron’s grandfather followed a plume of smoke up the Mississippi River to a Ford Motor Company plant in New Orleans looking for work. He started out sweeping floors — and by 1943, the family was awarded the Lafayette Ford franchise, which they’ve run ever since.
In this episode, Todd shares what’s kept Hub City Ford successful across generations, how the car business has changed, and where he sees the industry going. Todd is also a fellow local podcaster, hosting Cajun Catholics on Catholic Radio KLFT 90.5 — a fun crossover for Acadiana podcast listeners.
John Ray Perkins III is a Lafayette, Louisiana REALTOR®, founder of The John Ray Group, and a storyteller at heart. After nearly 20 years in youth and family ministry, John Ray brought his passion for people, relationships, and community into real estate in 2019. Today, he helps families navigate one of life’s biggest decisions while sharing stories, local insights, and a little South Louisiana humor along the way. A husband, father of four, and proud Acadiana local, John Ray believes real estate is about more than houses. It’s about people, their stories, and the places they call home.
Hey Hey, It’s John Ray!
