- Through a well-informed source (he used to work there) I here that an
- auto dealer of a very popular Japanese import here in Milwaukee is
- about to go under. I understand that they are on a cash-only basis
- with their suppliers and are not paying overtime to any of the hourly
- employees. Sorry, but I cannnot risk saying exactly who I am talking
- about here.
-
- My question is if anyone out there in net land has any opinion on buying
- a new 1992 vehicle from this dealer. Better yet, has anyone out there
- dealt with a similar situation?
-
- It seems to me that since this info has not yet been made public, the
- dealer must still be making an attempt to recover from the situation.
- Would he not want as much business as possible and, therfore, beat any
- other dealers price? Could I not get an excellent deal there? Or, would
- he try to screw me for as much as possible?
