**Mike Wolfe Shares His Dreams Amid Declining Ratings for *American Pickers***
*American Pickers* star Mike Wolfe has opened up about his dreams for the future, revealing plans for life beyond the hit reality series. As the show experiences a dip in ratings, the 59-year-old collector has been focusing on his other passions and personal ventures, offering a glimpse into his life outside of TV.
In a recent social media post, Mike shared images of a vintage motorcycle he’s been restoring, along with an antique engine dating back over 100 years. The bike, which had been gathering rust and dirt for years, was found in a woodshed behind stacks of wood on a farm. “I’ve been holding on to this 1909 Wagner engine for about eight years now,” Mike wrote in the post. “Always dreamed of a chassis popping up.” He proudly showed off the restored bike, expressing how moments like this keep him motivated to continue working on old vehicles and uncover hidden treasures. “There it was, resting for decades,” he added, reflecting on the bike’s long-forgotten history.
**A Possible Future Away from *American Pickers***
As *American Pickers* continues to face declining viewership, Mike has hinted that he may soon have more time to pursue his personal interests, including his love for restoring vintage bikes. According to a source close to Mike, the future of the show is uncertain, and both Mike and his co-host Robbie may be ready to step away. “I don’t know how long the show will last. I think they would like to retire at some point,” the insider told *The U.S. Sun*.
The most recent season of *American Pickers* has seen a significant drop in ratings. The first two episodes of Season 25, which aired in December 2023, attracted just 723,000 and 676,000 viewers, respectively. This marked a sharp decline compared to the previous year’s premiere, which garnered nearly a million viewers.
Despite the show’s struggles, Mike has built a solid backup plan with a range of successful ventures. He owns *Antique Archaeology* with locations in Nashville, Tennessee, and LeClaire, Iowa, as well as a real estate company where he restores historic homes. Additionally, Mike has invested in vacation rentals and other businesses, providing him with a stable foundation should he decide to step away from *American Pickers*.
**New Business Ventures and Personal Milestones**
Mike’s personal life has also been thriving, especially with his girlfriend, Leticia Klein. The couple recently signed on as spokespeople for Harley-Davidson, a brand that Mike has long admired. In a video promoting the 2024 Harley lineup, Mike and Leticia are seen cruising down a scenic, cliffside road, with Mike sharing his excitement about visiting new places while riding with Leticia by his side. “To travel to these places that you only have visited in your mind is an incredible thing,” Mike said in the video. Leticia also shared the clip on her Instagram, to which Mike responded with a sentimental message: “I love this journey and this life with you, babe.”
For now, Mike continues to balance his many projects with his role on *American Pickers*. However, as the show faces uncertain times, it seems he’s preparing for a future that could include more time spent on his personal passions and his growing list of business ventures.
Stay tuned to Mike’s journey, both on and off-screen, as he looks ahead to the future.
