My LS6 was originally sold at Reedman. They moved a lot of hipo cars, and are still rated the largest auto dealer in the US. Quite a place. I have a postcard from 1970 showing an aerial view of the facility. Pretty amazing.

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 T |

------Most dealerships floorplan thier cars with a lending entity.Most GM dealerships use GMAC,but they dont have to.A different division than the one you and I might use.If Reedman has deep enough pockets to finance themselves they will eke out a little bit more profit.This is generally the sign of a very financially solid dealer.
------Conversely(at least in my day)a dealer owned his used inventory outright.If a dealership had to floorplan the used and new inventory it was considered to be on shaky ground!Dont know that has changed over the years.Dont think so.............Bill S |
