When our business was founded,Van Buren was that main highway through town. It was lit up brighter than Camelback or Bell roads are today. With the hotels, motels, restaurants and their flashing neon signs it was a great place to be. The new car dealers were centered around Central and Van Buren, so we were really in the new and used car row back then.
The neighorhood is nicer than it was a few years ago. We very rarely have any problems with vandalism or theft.
I was talking with another car dealer down the street from me. He told that potential customers would call about a car, ask some questions and sound very positive about coming to look at it. When he gave the customer the address, the customer made a remark about not wanting to come to Van Buren for a car.
I have had a few calls like that, but most of my ads list our address and many people are aware of who we are and what we do. The fact that we have had no complaints to the Better Business Bureau in their three year reporting period speaks volumes about us. The cars we sell are mostly middle of the road cars that are affordable, with a payment under $300 per month and a loan term of 24-30 months. In todays economy most people don't want to enter a contract for 6 or 7 years for a car.
Come in and take a look. I am sure you will find something that you like.
