Hi Jeff (Fithen),
As you probably know, Dick Barrick was kind enough to meet me at the old Montgomery Ford location this afternoon and accompany me on a test drive of a 2009 Edge, which I fell in love with almost immediately. He spent a lot of time telling me about the features of the vehicle (with absolutely no pressure), and met me back at that location at 5:00 to purchase the Edge. All the paperwork was already done; all I had to do was sign and get back in the car and drive home.
I cannot express enough how pleasant it is and always has been to do business with Dick Barrick. You have a true jewel working for you--he knows everything there is to know about every vehicle, he is a gentleman and does not pressure the customer at all, he inspires absolute trust, and he makes the purchase such a simple, efficient experience. If every Ford dealership had employees even half as expert as Dick, their sales would improve greatly. He truly went above and beyond the call of duty to take care of my needs, as he always has. I hope you are paying him what he is worth!!
I have done business with Williams Ford / Montgomery Ford ever since I moved to Cincy 18 years ago and hated to see the dealership close. Beechmont Ford is just so far for me to travel. However, I was elated to see your service/used car business take over the old location and plan to have all my service work done there. In other words, I want to stay in the LorMar family, and especially want to purchase any future vehicles with the assistance of Dick Barrick.
I thank you and Dick for a wonderful experience. I am elated with my new Edge and will tell everyone how great it is, and how pleasant my experience with your dealership has been.
Sincerely,
Sharon Knight

Cash for Clunkers Legislation Signed
President Obama signed into law the “Cash for Clunkers” program, also known as the Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS) by NHTSA. This is a government program that helps you purchase a new, more fuel efficient vehicle when you trade in a less fuel efficient vehicle. NHTSA is charged with implementation of rules within 30 days. Stay tuned for more details.

Cash for Clunkers Update
President Obama has not yet signed the Cash-for-Clunkers legislation, passed by Congress last week, into law. However, it is anticipated that he will do so soon.
Once signed by the President, the government has 30 days to create rules to implement the cash-for-clunkers program and an informational Web site for consumers and dealers. NADA is working with the Department of Transportation (DOT) to implement a program that makes sense for both dealers and consumers. In the interim period, dealers are encouraged to advise consumers to consult the DOT's website, http://www.cars.gov/ and EPA's http://www.fueleconomy.gov/.
Dealers are advised that "clunker" transactions completed prior to the publication of DOT regulations may not qualify for reimbursement by DOT. At this time, there is no procedure for dealers to register as a participating dealer and no approved affidavit indicating that the vehicle has been sent to a scrap yard. Until regulations are promulgated, dealers accepting vehicles under this program do so at their own risk. Dealers are not obligted to participate in the program and are advised to wait until the final regulations are published sometime in mid-to-late July so they can be certain to comply with the program.
We will provide additional information as soon as it becomes available.

OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics
At Lawrenceburg Chevrolet we value your business and want to do everything possible to make sure that your ownership experience is as easy and convenient as possible.
When you purchased your new vehicle you had the opportunity to take advantage of OnStar Vehicle Diagnostics email. This is a feature where your car or truck can automatically run a diagnostic check every month and send you an email with the results. The email report is easy to read and diagnoses nearly every system in the vehicle including things like tire pressures and a prediction for upcoming maintenance that is recommended by General Motors.
OnStar has a new feature called Dealer Maintenance Notification that is included with your OnStar email service. Once you enroll, whenever your car or truck needs GM recommended maintenance, OnStar sends a note to our Service Department. Then we can contact you by phone or email to schedule an appointment -- and you have got one less thing to worry about.
Both of these features are included with your OnStar subscription -- there is no extra charge. You can easily enroll by pushing the blue OnStar button in your vehicle and asking the OnStar Advisor to enroll you, or you can visit the My Account page or OnStar and sign up online.
We want to help you to maintain your vehicle and this is a great way to make it simple and easy. To show our appreciation for selecting us as your preferred dealer for OnStar Dealer Maintenance Notification, simply bring this blog post with your proof of enrollment in Dealer Maintenance Notification or allow us to assist you with enrollment during your next visit.
