Hi Everyone,

First time posting here. My name is Charles and I'm the owner of a Chevrolet Dealership out in NY. Although I've driven tons of them in my life, as of last week my own personal vehicle has become the Chevrolet Silverado! I'm very excited. I look forward to some good discussions here. Take care!

Welcome!!

Hope you guys made the "new GM" list,The dealership where I work is on the "wind down" list

Buffalo Chevrolet · December 21, 2009

Thanks for the greetings guys. To answer some questions...

Amtz.Zero - I'll gladly post some pictures, but I'd like to read and get some mods done worth showing before I start up with pictures. It looks completely stock at the moment...although I guess some before and afters would be worth having.

06Z71Silvy - Ha, you're absolutely thinking of the right dealership, good to hear from you. Maybe I'll try to get Larry to join up over here as well.

MS3DALE - I'm sorry to hear that you guys are on the "wind down" list. This economy seems to be hurting everyone. We've been fortunate thus far and held our spot, but I've seen a lot of great dealerships in the area not make the cut this year.

I read Pa has the highest "wind down" list of all states.. Wonder why that is

Yep,We do. I have no idea why.

We are hoping for a reprieve,It seems like now the wind down dealers are in a holding pattern due to some bill thats in the house/senate to stop GM from forcing dealers to close.

I can tell you that where were at there are a lot of small "hometown" type dealers,many are lucky to sell a few vehicles a month.

We are a large multi-line dealer (Chev-Cad-Buick-GMC) that sells over 100 vehicles a month,I do over $60-70,000 a month in sales,our body shop does over $100,000 grand a month,service isn't far behind that.

I have no idea how they picked there "wind down" dealers
