Default Re: A few dealerships in Richmond are closing

Whos your buddy at Whitlow?

Word I heard is GM came out and said they weren't releasing names of closing dealerships. They say is only the business of the owners and GM, and that the owners will do what they want with that information. Things are pretty hush hush around Whitlow Chev. and Lexus (same owner, share a shop, ect). There are rumors the owner got a letter and has 2 weeks before GM makes an offical decision to renew the contract or not. I feel bad for people loosing their jobs, its got to be tough.

Brighter side, Lexus is completely and utterly slammed. Feb. is usually our slowest/toughest month, and this last one was our record month of all time. I have to think with as slammed as we are, there has to be other dealerships in the area with some good work.
