That's the book I was referring to. Some good stuff in it; Some bad. The auto industry today is different than it was even five years ago. Dealers want and need your business. New car purchases are also easier than they have ever been with internet access. You can request a quote and within an ...

Stop telling yourself a "good deal" is $10,000 off. Unless you find a 2012 Demo Yukon or Tahoe with 5 to 7,000 miles you won't get this deal. 2013 models are going for around $5,500 to possible $6,000 off. This incentive includes a $2,000 rebate from the factory and $3,000 to $4,000 of dealer inc...

If they stay healthy and Hickey comes back it's possible. We have really good guard play but Johnny O'Bryant doesn't have much help down low. This team is scrappy. I'll be satisfied with NIT this year. The whole team comes back next year and with the class coming in next year we will definitely h...

Rueben Randle: 13 catches, 184 yards, 1 touchdown. Definitely should have came back to LSU for his senior year. With the hype he had coming out of high school I thought this guy would have been unstoppable at LSU....Grant it we didn't have the quarterback to throw the ball. With that being said,...

Clayton is 6'4". OBJ and Landry don't compare at al to him. Similarities to Josh Reed as far as size sure. But to compare him to Clayton just isn't true.
Clayton, Bowe, Buster Davis, Terrance Tolliver. Definitely could have used a 6'4, 6'5 wide out this year....

No need to wholesale. Most won't take deals less than $2,000, if you have to take a minimum deal send it to auction. Dealers shouldn't have to take mini deals. The 5-6 pounders more than make up for the few $1,000 minimum deals....

Pre-owned lots rarely take mini deals. I always get a kick out of it when people say "I bought a used vehicle from a buddy that works at "Main Street Auto Sales" "They gave it to me at cost."
Every business is in the market to maintain profits. Profit margins on the pre-owned side of dealersh...
