OK...I sat on my hands for over 72hrs waiting for someone to approach the subject...

How were your :heart:mo '12 sales?

I saw huge numbers Tweeting about & record Books slapped in the Face.

Come on, let's see some y:y & +%'s

So far I have seen better numbers in almost all the dealers that we manage the inventory (800+).

If there are 2 neg thing I can say:

The smaller guys (and perhaps holds truer to independents) are having a much harder time competing.
Dealers not strong on digital are suffering now more than ever.
 
We saw a record January with retail sales of 145 and an overall record month in February with a total of 170. The previous record was 167 in march 2007. We were also named Dealerrater's 2012 Used Car Dealer of the Year last month (just to toot my own horn a little cause it feels good!)

I thought a little pat-on-the-back thread would be nice over the weekend.
I'm glad to see you guys have been rocking 2012. :tiphat:

We had a great Feb-shattered our 1mo total sales record while undergoing our 1st CRM install.
