General Manager John Durrani hopes those looking for inventory bring in their used car to take advantage of several dealer incentives. “Anyone trading in either their used or certified pre-owned cars will receive an additional $1,000 over book value,” he said. “There isn’t a better time for anybody to trade in their cars. Your trade is worth more than it ever has before, and it’s worth more than it’s ever going to be worth.” The dealership has back orders for weeks and sometimes months on certain models. Durrani said that the market has been “pretty crazy.” With few cars available on their lots, announcing tradeins bonuses has become critical.

Durrani said, “People currently have the means to either purchase a new vehicle or one of the very few remaining used cars. That stems from several rounds of stimulus checks, federal and state governments mailed to families. The task remains because of raised requests.”

The dealership holds a monthly private sale. This month’s event is scheduled for Saturday, January 29 and Sunday, January 30, from 10:00 AM until 6:00 PM, by appointment only. Those who attend will be expected to follow social guidelines, but also have access to their inventory. Managers will be there to answer questions and offer additional incentives. Check with the dealership for dates and times. The Dealership’s Peace of Mind Purchase Process means no hassles over pricing, trade-in values, cash back, and rebate incentives, and the best available leasing and financing terms offered up front. Durrani said that this is just part of the all-around, customer-driven experience he implemented to ensure the process does not get bogged down in miscommunication.
