Sales for dealerships went downhill, some spectators might blame what started with the mortgage crisis and carried over across the board with what many spectators might call our country falling into recession. Auto Makers are strategically thinking on new methods to gain the interest of consumer and get them to spend on new vehicles and Hyundai sure led the way! GM after closing a few factories is jumping in the concept. All they have to do now is compose more affordable 4 doors instead of SUV or trucks. Savings is the way to go, if consumer can save on a car and save on gas they might not be as reluctant to buy an automobile. Face it a new car is a new car so the concern is not so much on the luxury but on the savings. I see Ford stepped up with an unbeatable 12 month cover plan, but I think this only goes for their Lincoln and Mercury line not their entire selection. They call it the “Advantage Plan” and it’s effective now until June 1st, 2009. Everyone should be driving a new car. It’s hip, so 2009!
