How many salesmen actually have a clue as to what is coming out.?? It's
hard enough finding one that know anything about the models on the lots.
I once had a salesman telling me that a certain DOHC 4cyl Spirit R/T was
discounted because it was only the 4cyl and not the 3.0 V6.. They were
actually having to mark down the limited production car because they didn't
have a salesmen there that knew it was the top of the line to have.
The DML has better information and contacts than most of the salesmen
do.
