Pros

None. They fail to do what they say.

Cons

Group1 comes in and buys up dealerships and gives everyone false promises. They Won’t buy shop equipment. Or do anything to help the shop when it’s slow. It’s unethical to allow someone to work for 80 plus hours and bring home a 30 hour paycheck when it is their job to bring in the work. The company has everything off site so good luck trying to get an answer quickly on warranty coverage. The best salesman leave due to their unreasonable pay plans. The future of the business is the independent business. All customer pay.
