With this new trend of service first, maybe we will see more dealer canidates from the service side of the house.

That's an interesting thought.
If the business continues to change and dealers need to derive more of their profits from the Fixed Operations side of the house it stands to reason that more dealers in the future may come from a Service and Parts background.

SE ~~> $21.00 ($15,995)
SXT ~> $321.00 ($17,995)
LTD ~> $445.00 ($19,995)
We had more mark up in Omni's that sold for $3706.00 !

That's amazing - how's a dealer expected to meet all of the demands of Dealer Standards if he/she doesn't have a decent margin of profit?
This is a great topic - I'm going to split it off and create a new thread.
