Lariat diesel---not near every option, also not near the record--one salesman thought there was a 78,000 dollar truck sold once! # 11(new and used) in 5 weeks.
 
Congrats on the sale. It amazes me sometimes how a truck can be so expensive. So many years ago it seems trucks were just work vehicles. Basic hauling, no frills. Now they have so many luxury type options. It's crazy.

That reminds me of when I first went to work as a line mechanic at a local Ford dealer. I was doing some warranty repairs on a new F150 (1981). An old mechanic that had worked there since the late '40s came up to the open drivers door. When he looked down and saw switches for electric windows he harrumphed and replied "if a man's too damn lazy to wind down his own windows then he's too lazy to need a truck!"

That's awesome, Rod. How many vehicles has your dealership moved in that same time frame? Seems the economy is not affecting people's buying decisions down there.

Since I started we have sold 40 something----quite a few for a small dealership--my best so far was when a couple came in to get a tire fixed on their 03 Taurus, they walked on the show floor killing time and I ended up selling them a new $38,000 Taurus----the owner commented on that one. Most are truck sales--rural community--lots of hunters--farmers.
 
That would buy a house round here. And a nice one at that.
 
I can see it now.

Excuse folks, I need to take of picture of you with your new car for my forum. No that's not creepy.
Unless of course he selling a new mustang.

I think that is exactly what he should do. He could tack those pics up on his office/cubicle wall. Future folks might see a familiar face and be more inclined to buy a car themselves. Such is the way in central Illinois (small town USA).

I know a lot of dealers up here do that, just not the posting it on our forum part.

I think you should do the same thing for all the high heel sales you make. You would have to use your best judgement to decide angle/zoom level of the shots taken, obviously.

Craig would have a new favorite thread!

I think that might just get me fired.

If I had a nickel for every thong I see when women bend over to try on shoes.......

I've had my share of interesting experiences. You see it all in retail sometimes.
 
We just got a used prius for my daughter and they took her pic and will send a calendar.
