22 things that shouldn’t happen to a car??

Most cars are manufactured and then sold to someone who’ll use the car as transportation – something to get them from point A to point B.  But every so often, cars are manufactured and sold to people who have something…a little more creative, in store for their new vehicle!

MSN has compiled a list, “22 Things That Shouldn’t Happen to a Car”.  We however think someone must’ve mistyped “22 of the Coolest Things That Have Happened to a Car”!  Beds, coffins, water features, and modern art are just a few of the awesome alternatives these folks managed to turn their vehicles into!  Click here to check it out!

Car Buyer of the Future

For dealers, knowledge of their customers’ wants and needs are highly essential for better business.  For this reason, associations like us, as well as the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) make it a point to host webinars for dealer members so that their dealerships may acquire the proper skills to please car buyers.

On Wednesday, April 15, 2015, the NADA will host a webinar called, Car Buyer of the Future, which will be presented by Autotrader, Howard Prolirer.  NADA says this webinar will explore the six steps to the car buying process and examine what customers want in the sales process.  Focusing on the Car Buyer of the Future study, the webinar will touch on current shopping, buying, and ownership process through the lens of four thousand customers interviewed about their buying experiences.
