When the Fed Bails Out the BIG 3...Who Bails Out the Dealers?
| |
| The Senate and House got a jolt this week while debating whether to bail out the Big 3 when it was learned that we shed over 500,000 jobs in November. The possibility of additional job losses from the domestic auto industry became the main reason for

During the wonder years of post 911 rebates, 0% financing, and high margin sales of pick-ups and large SUVʼs the domestic manufacturers started adding new dealership locations like drunken sailors, diluting the value of the existing locations, lowering their sales, raising their marketing expenses for a share of voice in the over crowded print and electronic media, while forcing additional inventory on all of the locations.

They know that the public wants low priced car loans and so they make them available. on the other hand, when you arrive at the dealership, you quickly learn that very few people-less than one in ten, on average-be eligible for these cheap car loans. It’s all in the miniscule print, but some people can read small type that swiftly before it disappears from the bottom of a television screen. |
