    City is 56k but metropolitan area is 400,000+. Pensacola is a military town and a vacation retirement area.

    Read the thread where HarrytheCarGeek posted this: Labor rate from $115 to $150 car count down 1/3 revenue up 6%. Going on the third month that we raised our rates. Our best customers have stayed, trouble nickle and dime customers seem to have disappeared. ARO from 380 to 628. There may be your answer.

    I had a car abandoned where I was owed $100. It needed a fuel pump. When it was all said and done I made $2,000 profit on the car.

    Welcome.

    I have a 1989 Camaro that I have had since May. I am getting a mechanics lien and will sell it for what I can get. To secure a title for a vehicle in Indiana costs me about $150. You just have to weigh it all out. I will have 1-2 vehicles abandone each year. For me it is just part of running the business.

    Can anyone tell me what Elite charges for something similar. One thing I have never liked about ATI is the high pressure sales method they use. If they get your name they will call and call to get you to one of their seminars.

    You should actively be recruiting and looking for a replacement. That you ask the question tells me the answer is not if but when.

    No experience but I am curious as to how your experience has been?

    Not 100%.

    Reminds me of a 1974 Chevrolet Vega station wagon I once had. Someone at church put a sticker on the bumper that said answer my prayer, steal this car.

    Five years after I started a business from scratch and never taking a pay check from someone else. It has been 23 years since I quit the best job I have ever had and went out on my own. I have started two different unrelated business in that time and they we both successful.

    Gonzo, everyone in a while you run into those type who agree to everything and then try to change the deal after the fact. What you want to bet that the dealer charges them more without your help in setting it all up.

    I know a guy in Texas who started from 0 and has 6 stores after 15 years. They are all franchises started from scratch.

    Gonzo pacers also drive me crazy. Every time the door is opened our buzzer hoes off in the shop. If I am out there I too run up front.

    Stil using Newtek but I just received a very attractive quote from one of my customers. I am considering switching. If interested the company is Performance Merchant Alliance and the account rep is Robert Pollard 844-584-3108 or 812-305-1659.

    About 50% of the waiters decide to make other arrangements once we tell them how long the repair may take.

    Wow. What a moving story and what a smart, kind, and thoughtful action on your behalf. You have probably made him a loyal customer for life.

    I signed up and did a trial search. Didn't seem to be very useful. Gave me no local stores. Gave no Oreilly.
