Do you have $50,000.00 ready for securing a lot / building and are you prepared to go through roughly a 6 month period of paperwork to get the dealers liscense?

I love it when they say i'm "thinking" about it. If you only knew..........

Yeah I picked up my avalon from a dealers auction in PA. I got for a real good price and it was a clean car with pretty low mileage for it's age.

By the way, before you say "i don't want a lot" you might need to know you don't get dealer papers without one.

I'd just try and "know" a dealer very well if i were you. it's a pricey thing to get into on your own.

You can just have someone with a dealers permit take you. The guys with those used car lots go like once a week, they may charge you $500 to go but it's worth the savings. That's what I did.

LOL taaaaaruuuuueee, tarue, tarue, tarue, tarue!!!! It will definitely take a lot more capital than that if he plans on keeping the lot(Dealer License) for more than a month. He then needs money for monthly OH costs, advertising & an inventory to stay in business!!!!
