Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jan 21, 2007 9:57 am) Checking on the Cadillac dealers more than 100 miles away, but still within 200 or so miles, reveals most of them as full line dealers, that is not only Chevy, but also Buick and Pontiac as well as GMC. |

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jan 21, 2007 9:57 am) Chevy-Cadillac is quite common here in California. Just two off the top of my head, in large metro areas are Stewart Cad/Chevy in Colma (Burlingame near San Francisco) and Graham Cad/Chevy in Santa Barbara. We also have Cadillac/Mazda (BIG dealer) in Santa Cruz. If you google these two keywords "cadillac chevrolet" you will get pages and pages of Cadillac--Chevy duals. The two dealers I mentioned follow the pattern someone else noticed...large Chevy showrooms and smaller separate Cadillac showrooms...which is probably a good idea. But the service areas are the same of course. interestingly, the Mazda dealer has Caddies and Mazdas side by side.

Replying to: bigo08 (Jan 21, 2007 2:49 pm) Cadillac/Saab/Hummer Pontiac/GMC/Buick Chevrolet Saturn BUT they are all independent and can do what they want but this is what GM is pushing for in markets that can handle it. If a Cadillac dealer cannot stand alone and make money then it will dual with somebody else. Many of the duals were done many years ago and it will take time. Here is a presentation that explains it. http://media.corporate-ir.net/media_files/IROL/84/84530/presentations/gm_080906L- aNeve.pdf
