Cash for Clunkers

Thank you for a wonderful 2009

Beechmont Ford customers and all Ford owners, THANK YOU!  2009 started involved a tremendous amount of uncertainty, apprehension and fear.  Should we take bail out money?  Should we not?  Stock prices plummeted and unemployment rose.  Consumer confidence lessened each and every day with more and more stories of bankruptcy and corruption.  Standing strong in times of hardship, believing in our customers and believing in the quality of the Ford brand kept us moving forward.

Some highlights of 2009 included:

• The 2010 new Ford model lineup event
• A visit from Cincinnati Bengals defensive end, Antwan Odom
• A sneak peak at the 2011 Ford Fiesta
• The government sponsored Cash for Clunkers program
• Ford Motor Company training our team on new enhancements to the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor

Most importantly, we would like to thank our customers for helping us finish 71st in the nation for new retail Ford vehicle sales.  Beechmont Ford could not have been as successful for the past 15 years without your continued support.  You supported us for many years in the past, during the economic challenges of 2009 and we look forward to serving you during the rebound of 2010.

2010 brings high hopes and optimism.  The equity Ford holds in its name is the highest of all domestic brands.  Consumer interest and customer loyalty keeps climbing.

Thank you… Thank you… Thank you.

More on Cash for Clunkers

With the final regulation implementing the federal Cash for Clunkers program set to be issued on July 24, many questions remain about the program, and in a recent webinar hosted by NADA, officials of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) warned that it would be “risky to make a deal now” before the regulation is published, even though sales made beginning July 1 may qualify.  The agency said that it has no discretion to make exceptions for issuing vouchers on vehicles sold before the regulation is published that do not meet the rules. 

Beechmont Ford and the NHTSA encourages consumers to visit www.cars.gov or call (888) 261-8619 for up to date information.
