Bill you are right on. The extra "profit maximizing" comes from the interest savings that the dealers get by not having to floor plan their inventory. You don't have to use GMAC if the dealer is in with a local bank. They might floor the cars with them if they get a better deal but flooring your car with your captive lender has other benefits.

BTW most soures have a period of 90 days before they charge juice on a car. That's why most of you have heard some dealers say that you might get a better deal if you order a car. In and out.

I just picked up a pair of the metal Reedman dealer emblems. Growing up, I remembered seeing those emblems on many cars in the area.

I've been told that they actually buy their inventory, unlike most dealers so they are able to maximize their profit on each sale. Are any of the salesmen here able to explain this better?

Paul, where did you get the emblems? I would love to get one to set my car back to original. It was sold at Reedman in 1970.

Re: Reedmen Chevrolet in Langhorne PA
 

Bill,
Just one minor point. I don't believe Reedman's took title to their used cars. When I bought my used '62 Impala from them in July '68 they just flipped the title. It was still in the previous owner's name, and he had signed it.
By the way, the car still has the metal emblem on the trunk lid.

My 70 Camaro L78 was originally purchased from Reedmanís.
Still has the emblem screwed to the trunk lid.
When I was younger we used to test drive BB Mopars and Chevys on the test track they have.
