Hey Guys,


Is there anyone else out here that is in the car business? If there is you can relate to me. The economy and gas prices has consumers so screwed up now days that people don't know which way to turn, and especially don't want to make the wrong move. When are we gonna get some help???? Does anyone else that has a business see these effects also!!! Just need to vent some anger, You know when the boss is on your asss because numbers are down and you don't know what to do. Thanks for listening.. and I welcome all comments... Thanks Trey

Bourbon. Lots and lots of bourbon.

No offense to you, but there are very few jobs that are recession/depression proof. Car dealer definately
is a risky job during a credit crisis. I would recomend updating resume or start selling hybrids and all electric
cars. Business would pick up if you sold those. I understand your concerns because if the majority was thinking
like I am right now, I'm going to drive the wheels off of my truck, and when they come off, I'm gonna fix them
and drive it another 200k miles. Take that money I'd spend on a car payment and put it in my mattress.

No offense taken and I think you put that about as good as you could!!!

Get out of the car business, that is unless you can get over to the wholesale side and even that will be hurting soon!
