Frank Myers Auto Announces February Sales Pro Of Month

Frank Myers Auto Maxx is pleased to announce that Mr. Mike Thomas has been named the Non-Commissioned Sales Pro of the Month for the month of February. To capture the top spot for the second month in a row, Mike sold 22 and a half cars. That number of vehicles is the 3rd most number ever sold in the history of the dealership. The only employees to have ever sold more than Mike was his father, Robert Thomas (now Director of Service) and Tracy Myers (now the owner).  

Thomas was selected as February 2011 Non-Commissioned Sales Pro of the month for his world-class performance and award-winning accomplishments in the automotive solutions department. What he likes best about working at Frank Myers Auto Maxx is helping folks drive home in the car of their dreams…especially after other dealerships have told them no. Thomas also mentioned how much he enjoys the family atmosphere.

Mastermind of Possibilities at Frank Myers Auto, John Bodenheimer, stated “Mike has come a long way since he started and really deserves this honor. He has become our top sales professional for the month of February and we are all proud of him. His commitment to his profession make it a joy for all of his teammates to be around him on a daily basis.”

Head Honcho, Keith Bowman stated “Mike made it a personal goal to be on top of the pile for two months in a row. It inspires me that he was dedicated to making his dream a reality. To have been able to sell nearly 23 cars takes something special…like tiger blood flowing through his veins. It is no surprise to me that he made sales pro of the month. If he continues to be as great as he was in February, I would expect him to be the sales pro of the month every month.”

Frank Myers Auto Maxx Chosen For Payment Relief Program

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of last years successful government-sponsored loan modification program, the “CAR PAYMENT RELIEF” program (or CPR) has been introduced at the Winston Salem used car dealership Frank Myers Auto Maxx.

The “CAR PAYMENT RELIEF” program has a goal to help as many North Carolinians as possible find the best way to get a lower monthly car payment…saving them as much as $75 up to $300 per month. Some of the nation’s leading car dealerships, including Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston Salem, have been chosen to help drivers leverage their power as a consumer and take advantage of this current payment relief program.

This is the easiest-possible way for the public to get relief from their high monthly car payments. If you need to lower your car payment, go to https://www.FrankMyersAuto.com  to register for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

This is not a refinance service or a debt restructure service. Credit card debt and late rent payments can not be considered. The “CAR PAYMENT RELIEF” program can only show you how to own a nicer, newer car and get a lower monthly car payment…saving as much as $75 up to $300 per month.  In order to be eligible for the program, participants must be a licensed North Carolina driver. Transactions must be made before March 31, 2011. This is a limited time sale promotion.

FUNDING FOR THE PROGRAM:

The “CAR PAYMENT RELIEF” program (or CPR) program shows consumers how to get a lower monthly car payment…saving them as much as $75 up to $300 per month. The program is designed to energize the economy by putting vehicles with lower monthly payments on North Carolina roadways. No local, state or federal tax dollars are being used to fund the CPR.

ELIGIBILITY:

Any licensed North Carolina driver is eligible to participate in the “CAR PAYMENT RELIEF” program.

HOW IT WORKS:

Consumers bring their current vehicle (if applicable) and valid North Carolina drivers license to Frank Myers Auto Maxx. Consumers will complete a quick and easy CPR processing form and it will be reviewed by a qualified agent who will show you how to potentially save $75 as much as $300 per month by upgrading to a nicer, newer vehicle. There is no obligation and no application fees.

Frank Myers Auto Maxx is not reimbursed by any other government program or taxpayer-supported program. All trades taken in are under the CPR program will be disposed of at the selling dealer’s discretion.

11 Steps To Becoming A Super-Power Car Buyer; Part 2

Step #1 (of 11 Steps To Becoming A Super-Power Car Buyer): Ask Yourself If You Should Buy New Or Used?

Most people think the answer to this question is obvious – NEW.

But most of those people haven’t spent any time thinking about the actual pros and cons of each.

Many people believe you should only buy used if you can’t afford to buy a new car, but that logic is completely flawed.

Let me explain…

Have you heard all of those recent TV and Radio campaigns for all these amazing deals, huge rebates, low financing and ridiculous incentives on new vehicles? Of course you have. Who hasn’t. They’re everywhere!

Because of these aggressive campaigns and extremely attractive sale opportunities, the number of new cars, trucks and SUV’s sold by automakers since Cash For Clunkers is growing at a record pace.

What does this mean to you and me?

Good question.

It means that there has never been a better time to consider the merits of a used car instead of a new one.

Why??

Because, until a couple of years ago, all of these new car buyers have created an overabundance of used cars – by turning in leases and trading in recently purchased vehicles…which gives you, the used-car shopper, a mega-amount of choices of quality, low mileage vehicles.

Plus, the flood of people that bought all those new vehicles during the original Cash For Clunkers have started to trade-in those cars and has made the used car market ripe for the pickin’.

See…the used car market is somewhat depressed, which means the prices are lower than normal.

This is not good for your new-car buyer friends who are trying to get maximum money for their two and three year old trade-ins, but it’s great for the smart shopper like you who knows the insider information about buying used cars at depressed market prices.

You are the one who scores. You are the one who will save money.

Why would a used car dealer tell you this, let alone put it in writing?

Because I am in the best position ever to offer you an amazing, high-quality, pre-owned vehicle for a price and a payment that’s unheard of.

Plus, because so many new car buyers are trading in their cars so quickly to get jammed into another, most of these vehicles come with the peace of mind of it being top-quality and barely used.

What really matters is having a car you truly love and adore that is dependable and affordable.

If your budget is at its max, then buying a used car makes sense. It is the only way to get the most vehicle for the least amount of money.

How many new cars do you know of that list for under $10,000?

We both know what kind of car that buys. Not much. A strip-o model. That’s car talk for a car that has no features.

Manual transmission, no A/C, you can forget safety features and definitely no luxury accommodations.

What fun is that?

Michelle Krebs of Cars.com writes, “For less than half the price of the average new car, you can buy a 3- or 4-year-old used vehicle that is larger and loaded with more features than the small, bare-bones new one.”

Now we’re talking.

But I’m not going to be one sided here. Buying a used vehicle has its drawbacks.

You are not the first owner of the vehicle so you don’t know where and how it was driven or how it was cared for.

Was the scheduled maintained performed?

You may or may not know.

Many say that a used vehicle will require maintenance and possibly expensive repairs sooner than a new one, and these repairs may or may not be covered by a warranty depending on the vehicle you buy.

One state Independent Automobile Dealers Association web site states, “All automobiles require upkeep, so factor in some amount for repairs. A good rule of thumb: Multiply the number of miles you expect to drive a month by 38 cents; the amount of money you should set aside a month to cover operating costs and maintenance on a car in addition to your car payment and insurance.”

Operating costs include everything from repairs and routine maintenance – like oil changes – to gas, car washes, and air fresheners.

In the next post, I’ll share with you Step #2: The pros and cons of buying both new and used.

Used Ford F-150 Recall Affects 150k; Winston Salem Used Car Dealer Offers To Facilitate

Government pressure has caused Ford Motor Company to recall nearly 150,000 F-150 trucks to fix air bags that could deploy without warning. This number is a fraction of the vehicles the government says should be called back and repaired.

Used Ford F-150 trucks from the model years 2005-2006 are being issued the recall for what the Dearborn, Mich., company calls a “relatively low risk” of the air bag deploying inadvertently.

Ford has been urged by the government to recall 1.3 million F-150s from the 2004-2006 model years. They cite 98 injuries from air bags deploying accidentally. Ford’s F-Series pickup trucks are the best-selling vehicle in America and that’s one of the reasons the recall is being closely watched.

Tracy Myers, owner of Winston-Salem, NC used car dealership Frank Myers Auto Maxx, said: “With the spectacular vehicles that Ford has been making over the past few years, their massive recall on their F-150 trucks have stunned America. While I’m sure that lots of used Ford truck owners that live in Winston Salem are concerned with the recall, it is my understanding that Ford is working to get this problem under control. I want to reassure our customers that are Ford truck drivers that we are committed to seeing them through this unfortunate situation. As part of that commitment, we are providing free inspections on any Ford F150 that will end on March 27th.”
