There is an image that car enthusiasts have always had of the Lincoln Town Car: a nice, big and comfortable car that's great on a long interstate trip, but not much fun to drive. Make no mistake, the T.C. is still a plush, long-distance cruiser, but simply checking off the "Touring Sedan" option means that this land yacht can actually take corners without bobbing about like a schooner in rough seas. But more on that later.When it was redesigned last year, the Town Car lost its opera windows and about 200 pounds. Overall, the new style is clean, with a profile that is chiseled and strong. The only discordant element is the strange headlamp design that appears as though penned by an action comic-book artist. Three trim levels of the Town Car are available: the base Executive, midline Signature, and top-of-the-heap Cartier. The Executive comes loaded with luxury: leather seating, power-adjusted front seats with power recliners and automatic climate control are all included in the entry-level Town Car (why Lincoln spoiled this classic name with that "Executive" tag is beyond us). Safety features abound as well, with antilock brakes, traction control and front side-impact airbags among the standard fare. Stepping up to the Signature adds a few perks such as power lumbar supports in front, a powerful Alpine stereo system, and steering wheel-mounted controls for the stereo and climate-control systems. The Cartier gilds the lily with higher-grade leather, heated seats, chrome wheels and, of course, a Cartier clock.The tested Signature was equipped with the aforementioned Touring Sedan option, which provides the big Lincoln with some sporting hardware. Dual exhaust (good for bumping the horsepower rating from 200 to 220), a handling-oriented suspension (Never thought we'd see those words associated with a Town Car!), and performance tires mounted on chromed alloys are among the goodies include in this option.Inside, the Touring Sedan's leather seats are perforated and the simulated wood trim is darker than on other Town Cars. This attempt at a sporty interior leaves a bit to be desired as bucket seats and a console are not even an option (look to the Town Car's stablemates, the Continental and the new LS series, if you want this setup). And the fake wood is so dark it looks like black plastic. On the upside, there is plenty of room for five adults to ride in comfort. A sixth person could sit up front in the middle, but it would be tight.The trunk is huge and has a power pull-down feature that closes the trunk lid without requiring a healthy shove. Though there is nearly 21 cubic feet of trunk volume, it's not used easily. For some unknown reason, the spare tire is located near the middle of the trunk on a plateau, which makes loading the trunk somewhat frustrating.The 4.6-liter, SOHC V8 is so quiet at idle that some of us couldn't tell the engine was running. And even when the throttle is floored, the engine's voice never got louder than a murmur. Acceleration for a 4000-pound luxury car is very good, with the zero-to-60 mph dash done in about 8 seconds, according to our informal blast-out-of-the-tollbooth test. And as we expected, the four-speed automatic performed its duties without drawing attention to itself. Highway cruising is a breeze, and fuel mileage, at around 20 mpg for mostly highway driving, isn't bad for a car this size.Handling with the Touring Sedan option is a pleasant surprise. The Town Car felt buttoned-down in fast, sweeping curves, and exhibited none of the floating and weaving that was expected. Steering feel is firm and though there isn't much feedback, the car goes where it's pointed and tracks arrow-straight on the highway. The ride doesn't suffer for the tightened-up chassis either; as the Lincoln had as smooth a ride as one could want. Kudos to the suspension team that somehow made this car handle without losing the magic-carpet ride over the bumps.Braking performance of the standard four-wheel discs was strong. Pedal action was progressive and as a result the binders were easy to modulate. Under hard braking there was little of the expected "nose dive," perhaps another benefit of the firmer Touring Sedan suspension.Lincoln's attempt at making their traditional American luxury sedan more enjoyable for drivers is generally a success. True enthusiasts spending over 40 large would probably consider other cars (of German heritage, we'd guess), and give up some passenger room in exchange for a more exciting driving experience. But for those who love the luxury cars of old yet still like to drive, the Town Car Touring Sedan may be their cup of java.

About Us WE ARE DEALER TRADES,INC, A REGISTERED LICENSED AND BONDED FLORIDA USED VEHICLE DEALER AND WHOLESALER (VI 100 9046/1). 9 YEARS AGO, I HAD A BACK INJURY WHICH SLOWLY WORSENED UNTIL BY FEBRUARY OF 2012, I COULD NOT STAND OR WALK MORE THAN 3-4 MINUTES NO MATTER HOW MUCH MEDICATION OR RELIEF PAINS INJECTIONS THE DOCTORS' GAVE ME. I WAS TERRIFIED OF SURGERY BUT TOWARD THE END REALIZED THAT THE QUALITY OF MY LIFE WAS FAST DISAPPEARING, I COMMITTED TO A 4 LEVEL SPINAL FUSION TO BE PERFORMED BY DOCTOR GREG MUNSON AND HIS TEAM AT THE THE JEWETT ORTHOPAEDIC CLINIC HERE IN ORLANDO. JEWETT IS A HIGHLY REGARDED 60 YEAR OLD SURGICAL GROUP BEST KNOWN BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ORTHOPAEDIC TEAM PHYSICIANS FOR THE ORLANDO MAGIC BASKETBALL TEAM. THE GREAT SKILL OF THIS TEAM AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD, HAVE GIVEN MY FAMILY, OUR LIVES BACK. LESS THAN A MONTH FROM THIS SIX HOUR SURGERY, I AM BEGINNING TO WALK AGAIN USING ONLY A SUPPORT BRACE FOR ADDITIONAL BACK STABILTY. THE AGONIZING PAIN IN MY BACK AND LEGS HAS ALMOST COMPLETELY VANISHED AND MY LEGS SUPPORT ME WITH NO PAIN OTHER THAN MUSCLES WHICH MUST GET BACK INTO SHAPE NOT BEING REGULARLY EXERCISED FOR YEARS. I SHARE THIS BY WAY OF EXPLAINING THE NEW LESSONS I HAVE LEARNED DURING THIS PERIOD EVEN THOUGH I I STARTED SELLING CARS AS A COLLEGE DROP OUT 1961 AND WITH MANY HELPING HANDS, BECAME A NEW CAR DEALER FOR FORD, CHEVROLET, CHRYSLER AND MITSUBISHI OVER THE NEXT 40 YEARS. I SOLD MY LAST DEALERSHIP IN 2002. I RETIRED TO BECAME THE FULL TIME CUSTODIAL PARENT FOR SARAH DANIELLE LENOCI WHO WILL NOW BE FOURTEEN YEARS OLD THIS JUNE. IF YOU ARE COUNTING, I AM 70. SARAH IS GROWING UP FAST AND ALREADY HAS IT PLOTTED OUT THAT SHE WILL NEED TO GET HER LICENSE AND A VEHICLE AT SIXTEEN SO SHE CAN HELP DAD! DEALER TRADES STARTED IN 2003 AS A USED CAR WHOLESALER THAT THROUGH 40 YEAR BUSINESS ASSOCIATIONS, BEGAN ASSISTING NEW CAR FRANCHISED DEALERS TO KEEP THEIR USED CAR INVENTORIES UNDER 60 DAYS OF AGE. MANY OF THESE DEALERS HAVE BECOME PUBLIC COMPANIES WHO MUST TURNOVER THEIR USED VEHICLE INVENTORIES EVERY 60 DAYS TO PROVE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS THAT THE VALUES OF THESE INVENTORIES ARE REALISTIC, AND NOT BLOATED BY AGE OR MISTAKE. THIS MEANT THESE DEALERS HAD TO TAKE ALL OVERAGE CARS TO AUCTION WHERE THEY GENERALLY LOST THE REPAIR MONIES PUT INTO THE CAR, THE COST OF MANPOWER TIME, ALL TRUCKING COSTS AND TRANSPORT DAMAGE. PLUS AUCTION FEES, SHIPPING HOME OF ANY UNSOLD UNITS AND POSSIBLE HANKY-PANKY. I DEVELOPED A SYSTEM WHERE THE DEALERS REDUCED THESE LOSSES BY AS MUCH AS 40% BY USING LEASING ONE COMPLETE AUCTION LANE MONTHLY AT A MAJOR ORLANDO WHOLESALE AUCTION. THEN RE-DETAILING EACH CAR TO LOOK ITS BEST JUST BEFORE AUCTION AND CREATING A REAL SALE ATMOSPHERE WITH A BAND, BEER, WINGS AND HOOTER'S GIRLS. EVERYBODY LOVED IT AND IT WORKED! IT ALSO GAVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHERRY PICK A FEW NICE CARS EACH MONTH OUT OF THE OVER 500 UNITS THAT THESE MAJOR DEALERS WHOLESALED. HOWEVER, AS MY ILLNESS PROGRESSED, I COULD NOT DO THE EXTENSIVE TRAVEL AND COORDINATE THE TRANSPORT AND AUCTION DUTIES. IN 2008, I HAD TO GIVE UP THIS COMFORTABLE INCOME STREAM. NOW WHAT! I REALIZED THERE ARE OVER 7,500 CARS WHOLESALED EVERY WEEK THROUGH 6 AUCTIONS WITHIN 50 MILES OF MY HOME. EACH AUCTION PUBLISHES A PRE-SALE LIST OF THE CARS FOR SALE SO THAT CAR DEALERS AS FAR AWAY AS CALIFORNIA CAN FIND UNITS THEY NEED. WEEKLY, THEY COME TO FLORIDA TO BUY FROM THE HUGE VOLUME OF LATE MODELS, LEASE AND FACTORY RETURNS AND EVEN A SHARP OLDER UNIT. ALL THIS IN A GREAT PLACE FOR AN ADDITIONAL DAY OR TWO OF R&R. IT IS SAID THAT ORLANDO IS THE WHOLESALE CAR CAPITAL OF THE WORLD! WELL, ALTHOUGH I COULD NOT WALK, I COULD READ. IN 7-8 HOURS ON MY COMPUTER I COULD LOOK UP EVERY 4-9 YEAR OLD DESIRABLE MODEL WITH APPEALING, COLOR AND EQUIPMENT. THIS RESEARCH USUALLY PRODUCED A GROUP OF 60-70 CARS AND TRUCKS WITH POSSIBILITIES. THEN, USING THE SERIAL NUMBERS, I LOOKED UP THE COMPLETE VEHICLE HISTORY USING THE "AUTOCHECK AND "CARFAX" WEBSITES. I WHITTLED DOWN THE GROUP BY SELECTING ONLY ONE/TWO OWNER AUTOMOBILES, GOOD TITLE, NO ACCIDENTS, BACK UP SERVICE RECORDS VEHICLES, LOW MILEAGE AND FLORIDA OWNERSHIP HISTORY (NO RUSTED OUT NORTHERN VEHICLE CARS FROM THE USE OF SALT ON THE WINTER ROADS.) THIS FINAL GROUP IS USUALLY DOWN TO LESS THAN 15 VEHICLES. I HIRED A PART TIME SENIOR TO DRIVE ME TO THE AUCTIONS VERY EARLY ON SALE DAY. THE AUCTIONS LOAN US ONE OF THEIR CARTS TO DRIVE AROUND AND WE PHYSICALLY VIEW AND APPRAISE THE REAL VEHICLE.ARE THEY IN GOOD PHYSICAL CONDITION?SHARP CLEAN INTERIORS? GOOD TIRE AND WHEELS?ROAD TRASH/SCRAPES?OWNERS MANUALS, BOOKS AND RECORDS IN CAR?SPECIAL EQUIPMENT?LOTS OF OPTIONS?EXCELLENT ROAD FEEL ON TEST DRIVE? THE AUCTION NUMBERS ON THE VEHICLES TELL THE OWNERSHIP AND I CONTACT THE REPRESENTATIVE TO SEE IF THE CAR CAN BE PURCHASED AT A GOOD VALUE IN COMPARISON TO THE PUBLISHED WEEKLY SALE REPORTS. ALL MAJOR AUCTIONS PUBLISH AND UPDATE DAILY ALL CURRENT SALES RESULTS ON THE INTERNET AND ON SPECIAL PHONE APPS FOR REGISTERED AUTOMOBILE DEALERS. THEN, I WATCH EACH OF THE SELECTED CARS AS THEY COME THROUGH THE BLOCK FOR BIDDING (I HAVE ALREADY COMPILED THE APPROXIMATE VALUE FROM MY AUCTION WHOLESALE APP.) I BUY AS MANY AS 4 VEHICLES ON A GREAT DAY, BUT IT USUALLY TURNS OUT TO BE 1 OR 2. I THEN PAY FOR A POST SALE INSPECTION. HERE, THE AUCTION HAS A SPECIALIST DRIVE THE CAR FOR CORRECT ENGINE AND DRIVE TRAIN OPERATION, CHECK THE UNDERCARRIAGE ON A LIFT FOR UNDECLARED FRAME, WATER OR RUST PROBLEMS AND GUARANTEE THAT THE VEHICLE MAY BE RETURNED IF THERE IS ANY IMPEDIMENT ON THE TITLE SUCH AS POLICE, TAXI OR FACTORY BUY BACK WITHIN 2 WEEKS TIME. DEALER TRADES HAS A VERY LOW OVERHEAD! WE SUBLET ALL REPAIRS TO AN INDEPENDENT GARAGE THAT GIVES US A DISCOUNT ON BOTH PARTS AND THE LABOR BECAUSE OF THE VOLUME OF BUSINESS WE SUPPLY. OUR DETAIL COMPANY THEN PICKS UP THE CAR AND TAKES IT TO THE WAREHOUSE WHERE THE CAR IS CAREFULLY WASHED, THE ENTIRE EXTERIOR IS CLEANED WITH A CLAY BAR TO REMOVE ALL DIRT AND ANY FOREIGN MATERIAL ON THE PAINT. CLAY BAR IS MORE EXPENSIVE AND TIME CONSUMING, BUT IT GENTLE ON THE CLEARCOAT FINISH OF MODERN AUTOMOBILES RATHER THAN USING RUBBING COMPOUND WITH A HIGH SPEED BUFFER. THE COMPLETE INTERIOR IS CLEANED AND SWEPT OUT. THE SEATS, CARPETS, CONSOLE, DASH AND VENT PANELS ARE ALL SHAMPOOED. ALL GLASS IS CLEANED USING ENVIRONMENTLY SAFE PRODUCTS. THE EXTERIOR IS THEN POLISHED USING REAL CARNUBA WAX AND ECO-PRODUCT TO DETAIL THE TRIM, WHEELS AND TIRES. OUR WAREHOUSE IS NOT FANCY BUT RATHER LEASED FOR SECURITY AND LARGE ENCLOSED AREA TO SAFELY STORE THE AUTOMOBILES. WE SELL ALMOST 90% THROUGH EBAY AND OTHER ON LINE MERCHANDIZERS SO THERE IS NO HUGE NEWSPAPER AND TV ADVERTISING BUDGET. EACH VEHICLE IS DRIVEN OUT TO MY HOME WHERE I PERSONALLY DRIVE THE CAR AND TAKE AS MANY AS 90 PICTURES SO THAT YOU GET A COMPLETE PRESENTATION OF THE CONDITION FROM EVERY POSSIBLE ANGLE. OFTEN, WHEN YOU GO TO THE DEALER, THE SALESMAN DOES NOTHING MORE THAN PRESSURE YOU TO "BUY NOW!" "BUY NOW!" BUY NOW!" AND HAS A READY MADE STORY TO CONVINCE YOU TO ACT IMMEDIATELY! THE REAL RUSH IS THAT HE WANTS TO EARN A COMMISSION AND DOES NOT WANT YOU TO LOOK AROUND AND COMPARISON SHOP. WE GIVE YOU ALL THE FACTS AND DETAIL. YOU HAVE UP TO 10 DAYS TO REVIEW EVERY PICTURE, COMPARE THE VALUE AND TO CHECK TO SEE HOW MUCH MORE YOUR LOCAL DEALER HAS TO CHARGE BECAUSE OF COMMISSIONS AND THAT MILLION DOLLAR FACILITY AND SHOWROOM OVERHEAD. WE HAVE NO COMMISSION. THERE IS MICHAEL, THE PART TIME SENIOR WHO ASSISTS ME, SARAH, MY THIRTEEN YEAR OLD, AND SWEET TEA, HER DALMATION DOG AND ME. WE TRY ALWAYS OFFER THE BEST COMBINATION OF PRICE AND VALUE. AND, WE NEVER FORGET THAT OUR SUCCESS IS BASED ENTIRELY ON YOUR SATISFACTION.

There is an image that car enthusiasts have always had of the Lincoln Town Car: a nice, big and comfortable car that's great on a long interstate trip, but not much fun to drive. Make no mistake, the T.C. is still a plush, long-distance cruiser, but simply checking off the "Touring Sedan" option means that this land yacht can actually take corners without bobbing about like a schooner in rough seas. But more on that later.
When it was redesigned last year, the Town Car lost its opera windows and about 200 pounds. Overall, the new style is clean, with a profile that is chiseled and strong. The only discordant element is the strange headlamp design that appears as though penned by an action comic-book artist. Three trim levels of the Town Car are available: the base Executive, midline Signature, and top-of-the-heap Cartier. The Executive comes loaded with luxury: leather seating, power-adjusted front seats with power recliners and automatic climate control are all included in the entry-level Town Car (why Lincoln spoiled this classic name with that "Executive" tag is beyond us). Safety features abound as well, with antilock brakes, traction control and front side-impact airbags among the standard fare. Stepping up to the Signature adds a few perks such as power lumbar supports in front, a powerful Alpine stereo system, and steering wheel-mounted controls for the stereo and climate-control systems. The Cartier gilds the lily with higher-grade leather, heated seats, chrome wheels and, of course, a Cartier clock.
The tested Signature was equipped with the aforementioned Touring Sedan option, which provides the big Lincoln with some sporting hardware. Dual exhaust (good for bumping the horsepower rating from 200 to 220), a handling-oriented suspension (Never thought we'd see those words associated with a Town Car!), and performance tires mounted on chromed alloys are among the goodies include in this option.
Inside, the Touring Sedan's leather seats are perforated and the simulated wood trim is darker than on other Town Cars. This attempt at a sporty interior leaves a bit to be desired as bucket seats and a console are not even an option (look to the Town Car's stablemates, the Continental and the new LS series, if you want this setup). And the fake wood is so dark it looks like black plastic. On the upside, there is plenty of room for five adults to ride in comfort. A sixth person could sit up front in the middle, but it would be tight.
The trunk is huge and has a power pull-down feature that closes the trunk lid without requiring a healthy shove. Though there is nearly 21 cubic feet of trunk volume, it's not used easily. For some unknown reason, the spare tire is located near the middle of the trunk on a plateau, which makes loading the trunk somewhat frustrating.
The 4.6-liter, SOHC V8 is so quiet at idle that some of us couldn't tell the engine was running. And even when the throttle is floored, the engine's voice never got louder than a murmur. Acceleration for a 4000-pound luxury car is very good, with the zero-to-60 mph dash done in about 8 seconds, according to our informal blast-out-of-the-tollbooth test. And as we expected, the four-speed automatic performed its duties without drawing attention to itself. Highway cruising is a breeze, and fuel mileage, at around 20 mpg for mostly highway driving, isn't bad for a car this size.
Handling with the Touring Sedan option is a pleasant surprise. The Town Car felt buttoned-down in fast, sweeping curves, and exhibited none of the floating and weaving that was expected. Steering feel is firm and though there isn't much feedback, the car goes where it's pointed and tracks arrow-straight on the highway. The ride doesn't suffer for the tightened-up chassis either; as the Lincoln had as smooth a ride as one could want. Kudos to the suspension team that somehow made this car handle without losing the magic-carpet ride over the bumps.
Braking performance of the standard four-wheel discs was strong. Pedal action was progressive and as a result the binders were easy to modulate. Under hard braking there was little of the expected "nose dive," perhaps another benefit of the firmer Touring Sedan suspension.
Lincoln's attempt at making their traditional American luxury sedan more enjoyable for drivers is generally a success. True enthusiasts spending over 40 large would probably consider other cars (of German heritage, we'd guess), and give up some passenger room in exchange for a more exciting driving experience. But for those who love the luxury cars of old yet still like to drive, the Town Car Touring Sedan may be their cup of java.

WE ARE DEALER TRADES,INC, A REGISTERED LICENSED AND BONDED FLORIDA USED VEHICLE DEALER AND WHOLESALER (VI 100 9046/1).
9 YEARS AGO, I HAD A BACK INJURY WHICH SLOWLY WORSENED UNTIL BY FEBRUARY OF 2012, I COULD NOT STAND OR WALK MORE THAN 3-4 MINUTES NO MATTER HOW MUCH MEDICATION OR RELIEF PAINS INJECTIONS THE DOCTORS' GAVE ME. I WAS TERRIFIED OF SURGERY BUT TOWARD THE END REALIZED THAT THE QUALITY OF MY LIFE WAS FAST DISAPPEARING,
I COMMITTED TO A 4 LEVEL SPINAL FUSION TO BE PERFORMED BY DOCTOR GREG MUNSON AND HIS TEAM AT THE THE JEWETT ORTHOPAEDIC CLINIC HERE IN ORLANDO. JEWETT IS A HIGHLY REGARDED 60 YEAR OLD SURGICAL GROUP BEST KNOWN BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ORTHOPAEDIC TEAM PHYSICIANS FOR THE ORLANDO MAGIC BASKETBALL TEAM.
THE GREAT SKILL OF THIS TEAM AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD, HAVE GIVEN MY FAMILY, OUR LIVES BACK. LESS THAN A MONTH FROM THIS SIX HOUR SURGERY, I AM BEGINNING TO WALK AGAIN USING ONLY A SUPPORT BRACE FOR ADDITIONAL BACK STABILTY.
THE AGONIZING PAIN IN MY BACK AND LEGS HAS ALMOST COMPLETELY VANISHED AND MY LEGS SUPPORT ME WITH NO PAIN OTHER THAN MUSCLES WHICH MUST GET BACK INTO SHAPE NOT BEING REGULARLY EXERCISED FOR YEARS.
I SHARE THIS BY WAY OF EXPLAINING THE NEW LESSONS I HAVE LEARNED DURING THIS PERIOD EVEN THOUGH I I STARTED SELLING CARS AS A COLLEGE DROP OUT 1961 AND WITH MANY HELPING HANDS, BECAME A NEW CAR DEALER FOR FORD, CHEVROLET, CHRYSLER AND MITSUBISHI OVER THE NEXT 40 YEARS. I SOLD MY LAST DEALERSHIP IN 2002.
I RETIRED TO BECAME THE FULL TIME CUSTODIAL PARENT FOR SARAH DANIELLE LENOCI WHO WILL NOW BE FOURTEEN YEARS OLD THIS JUNE. IF YOU ARE COUNTING, I AM 70. SARAH IS GROWING UP FAST AND ALREADY HAS IT PLOTTED OUT THAT SHE WILL NEED TO GET HER LICENSE AND A VEHICLE AT SIXTEEN SO SHE CAN HELP DAD!
DEALER TRADES STARTED IN 2003 AS A USED CAR WHOLESALER THAT THROUGH 40 YEAR BUSINESS ASSOCIATIONS, BEGAN ASSISTING NEW CAR FRANCHISED DEALERS TO KEEP THEIR USED CAR INVENTORIES UNDER 60 DAYS OF AGE.
MANY OF THESE DEALERS HAVE BECOME PUBLIC COMPANIES WHO MUST TURNOVER THEIR USED VEHICLE INVENTORIES EVERY 60 DAYS TO PROVE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS THAT THE VALUES OF THESE INVENTORIES ARE REALISTIC, AND NOT BLOATED BY AGE OR MISTAKE.
THIS MEANT THESE DEALERS HAD TO TAKE ALL OVERAGE CARS TO AUCTION WHERE THEY GENERALLY LOST THE REPAIR MONIES PUT INTO THE CAR, THE COST OF MANPOWER TIME, ALL TRUCKING COSTS AND TRANSPORT DAMAGE. PLUS AUCTION FEES, SHIPPING HOME OF ANY UNSOLD UNITS AND POSSIBLE HANKY-PANKY.
I DEVELOPED A SYSTEM WHERE THE DEALERS REDUCED THESE LOSSES BY AS MUCH AS 40% BY USING LEASING ONE COMPLETE AUCTION LANE MONTHLY AT A MAJOR ORLANDO WHOLESALE AUCTION. THEN RE-DETAILING EACH CAR TO LOOK ITS BEST JUST BEFORE AUCTION AND CREATING A REAL SALE ATMOSPHERE WITH A BAND, BEER, WINGS AND HOOTER'S GIRLS.
EVERYBODY LOVED IT AND IT WORKED!
IT ALSO GAVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHERRY PICK A FEW NICE CARS EACH MONTH OUT OF THE OVER 500 UNITS THAT THESE MAJOR DEALERS WHOLESALED.
HOWEVER, AS MY ILLNESS PROGRESSED, I COULD NOT DO THE EXTENSIVE TRAVEL AND COORDINATE THE TRANSPORT AND AUCTION DUTIES. IN 2008, I HAD TO GIVE UP THIS COMFORTABLE INCOME STREAM.
NOW WHAT!
I REALIZED THERE ARE OVER 7,500 CARS WHOLESALED EVERY WEEK THROUGH 6 AUCTIONS WITHIN 50 MILES OF MY HOME.
EACH AUCTION PUBLISHES A PRE-SALE LIST OF THE CARS FOR SALE SO THAT CAR DEALERS AS FAR AWAY AS CALIFORNIA CAN FIND UNITS THEY NEED.
