Since you're in Florida i'm sure you heard of it. I worked at Bill Heard Chevrolet in Scottsdale,AZ. There have been 6 other dealers in PHX area that have closed since Sept last year.

Thanks for the compliment.
I got the bed test fit on it, just need to trim some more and make the mounts. I plan on driving it next week some time once the rest of my parts show up.

Toyota got some grief from friends but it has been the best thing I ever did.

I did used car recon, accessories, lift kits and body shop mechanical. It ended up being a good thing since i am on my own now. Little rough sometimes but i like it much better.

That sucks about the cadillac store, we got lucky that we had 2 weeks to get all of our stuff out, i heard some of the other stores locked people out for days.

Re: 68 Chevy on 22's

we just had four dealerships closed in the last month a jeep chrysler, a chevy store, a dodge store and a ford store...From what I heard the employees had weeks notice and some of them got nice amounts of money for sticking it out thru the end....it is awesome that you are doing good for your self. I worry about it everyday but I have faith that we will weather the storm...
