Ownership claims that's not going to happen. I suspect...however...that it will...sooner rather than later. As a great philosopher once said..."You must change with the times...unless you are big enough to change the times".

Our sister store is a Yota store...the property is being sold to the town for a transportation center...the Yota store is going to bunk with us until their new store is built. Now...Yota requires 5 acres for a store...our site is 4.7 acres. Neither Yota nor Ford will allow dual franchises on the same site. The Yota store sells 85+/- vehicles per month...the Ford store sells about 1/2 as many. Ford stores are closing at an astounding rate nationwide...folks are paying top dollar for a Yota store.
SOOOOOOOOOO...when push comes to shove...what would you do??? If the Ford store closes...it would be a shame...there has been a Ford store on this site for 85+ years. If it does close...I've got a big decision to make...do I stay with the Yota side of the business...or do I find a Ford store to work at. The closest stores would be between 25 and 55 minutes away...I now drive 4-5 minutes to work!!! Oh well...I'll cross that bridge when I come to it...that is if I'm even employed by the organization at that point.

Sean...I'll PM you the answer...FTE frowns upon promoting sales and business in open forums...so I've been advised!!!
Dudes...gotta shut it down for the evening...much to get done...not much time to get it done.
If you're around tomorrow...I'll type at 'ya then...if not...I hope you have a great Thanksgiving...and that you have much to be thankful for!!!

That would be a good thing. Because then I could take a plunger to the ISS so they can fix their space toilet.
