Nick I was at your dealership today and noticed you guys are busy! What’s your secret?

You know we have been busy. Things were quiet for us in October and November but they’ve really picked up in December and January and I think there are several reasons for the increase in business and traffic.First of all, not to blow our own horn but we are very good at what we do. We really are better than anyone at figuring out which vehicles work best for you the customer and structuring the loans so they work for the lenders and for your budget. We’ve been doing this for nine years and you’ll immediately see when you start the car buying process with us we are professionals we are experts and we get things done very efficiently. Word travels fast and if you have a good reputation people are inevitably going to check it out for themselves. It’s nice to do business with people that know what they’re doing and we’re pretty dang good at what we do!Secondly, there’s a lot of doom and gloom out there. Not a day goes by where you hear don’t some kind of negativity in the news and it can certainly get a person down if you buy into it. Unfortunately I believe many of our competitors have bought into the idea that folks with less than perfect credit can no longer get approved on cars and as a result they’ve given up. They honestly don’t even try to work with those customers. Now I’m not going to fluff you: It is tougher to get folks approved than it was say in the height of the mortgage and banking frenzy where anyone and I mean anyone could get approved but it’s certainly not even close to as difficult as some would have you believe. There are some excellent programs out there for folks with limited or no down and credit difficulties and we have access to them all. Don’t believe for one second that if you have less than perfect credit we can’t get you approved. We’re doing it every single day and we can do it for you.And finally, no matter how bad it is out there (or how bad people THINK it is) we all depend on our cars to conduct our daily lives. It’s simply impossible to function in today’s society without reliable transportation and I think we’re seeing some pent up demand for cars. People woke up one day and said you know what yes it’s tough out there but I still have a job, there’s still money in the bank and I’m still driving a car that’s no longer fitting my needs so it’s time to do some car shopping.Folks, I’m under no delusions here. Times are tough for many of us but the fact of the matter is if you need a car or if your current car situation’s not working for you don’t let the tough times stop you from seeing what we can do for you and what we’re all about. We appreciate everyone who’s bought from us and shops with us and we’ll continue to not jerk people around!

Hey Nick, are you doing any holiday promotions?

Great question. We have so many exciting promotions going on right now I don’t know where to begin. In our service department we have a special to get your vehicle ready for the winter season. Bring your car into our service department, and for only $19.95 we will change your oil, inspect and rotate your tires, check your coolant, service your battery, inspect your belts and hoses, top off all your fluids, and wash your car!

It’s our way of saying thanks to you.Also, if you bring in a can of food, West Valley Auto Plaza will match that can of food and donate it to the Utah Food Bank. With all the turmoil going on out there this is an especially needy year so bring down some food!Finally, I have personally never seen prices on cars so low. I know it’s said all the time everywhere but this is an especially good time to be shopping for a car. Take a look at some of our prices and I’m sure you’ll agree it’s just a great time to be in the market. Here is just one example. We have a great selection of 2007 Dodge Durangos. These SUV’s would have sold for $17000 to $19000 just a few months ago. They’re starting at $12999. Those kinds of prices are just unheard of. Give our awesome sales staff a call right away to schedule your appointment.Folks, we realize times are tough right now.

We will work harder than anyone to take care of you and we won’t jerk you around!
