Replying to: kyfdx (Aug 30, 2007 6:43 pm) We get cars off the lease return system which is kind of like an auction. We also be direct from other dealers.

The last couple of years,the Swedes have been building the next model year prior to going on vacation in July. Usually,they wait until August to begin the next years production. Looks like this year we are back to normal. |

Replying to: british_rover (Aug 30, 2007 6:46 pm) Haven't you heard? People who lease often don't change the oil for YEARS! At least that is one claim. I always wondered, since people who lease are charged for excessive wear, wouldn't the first thing you check be the routine maintaince?

I have been in the business for more than ten years, and at my current place for three. I can keep selling highline domestic vehicles or go to work for Mercedes. I live in a big city and our local Mercedes dealer is about to open up a second store. Given the looming recession, I'm not sure what the better choice would be; stay where I am at or go for the opportunity that may not be offered to me again. I guess what I am trying to figure out is which brand will be more beneficial to me for stability and financially. Locally, the Mercedes store has always been "The Place" to work if you could get a job there. Any informed opinions would be appreciated. Thank you for your input! |
