Dealer Refresh Roll Call

Got enough data yet Joe?

Ya, I just don't have enough TIME... grrr. I'll get to it ASAP.

Just launched a new feature where HOT keywords on vehicle options list are made bold red. Ck it out, It's another industry first: Used 2009 Buick Enclave For Sale Near Syracuse NY (look under tab marked "Vehicle Options")

Engine & Drivetrain
+ Engine 3.6L Variable Valve Timing V6 w/Direct Injection (288 hp @ 6300 rpm, 270 lb-ft Torque @ 3400 rpm)
+ 6-speed automatic transmission
+ All wheel drive

The idea is that shoppers don't read, they SCAN pages. Special Shout out to my bud Matt Scalcione at HomeNet for racking his brain to get this done on time and on budget!

- something no one should forget!

Joe - I like it! Everything that is most important is sticking out. I used to do that in my vehicle comments but relied on Homenet to export HTML over to my website provider and too many times I would run into character limits and broken html tags messing up vehicle details page.

Nice Job!
