    I love what I do, but it is so f-ing stressful.

    Hey DR community.. an ironic update: My father passed away in April of a heart attack -- aside from health issues that were known, he was stressed to sh*t running this used car dealership. While my mother is grieving, getting used to being independent and going through corporate ownership...

    OPINION: CARFAX is extorting my dealership

    Pretty ironic thread, actually: When I took over my pop's dealership in April, we were hit with a lawsuit from some ambulance chaser for selling a car 3 years ago that had frame damage. Now, the customer signed a statement of facts, disclosure form, and the CARFAX report, which showed no...

    Pricing Tools? I need something that will do all the research for me..

    If only Cars or ATC had an RSS feed of search results.... id probably be able to create some script that automates the averages of the vehicle (trim included). Oh well. CarGurus and AutoTempest for me.

    Pricing Tools? I need something that will do all the research for me..

    This will sound lame, but AutoTempest.com searches ATC, Cars, Vehix, usedcars, carsdirect, and i think Craigslist in separate inline frame windows... it combines all search results into one internet tab, but still not as useful I agree. I do this, find my best internet source, compare prices there.

    "He Gets It"

    Jeff, unfortunately I am on this ship. Set to sail, after four years, there really isn't much else I can do. Really. November was really slow. The irony was that our lead count was slightly up from October's. Nobody requests reports for the internet department so I am insistent on creating...

    I love what I do, but it is so f-ing stressful.

    Wow, so many responses! :hello:Thank you guys so much for the feedback, it really helps to know that I'm not the only one in this rut.

I'm a college grad 25 year old...

I'd use Pidgin, get an account from...
