I hear you - like I've said takes all types.
Another winner back then for a better deal was last week of the month as you'd know or not, most Sales guys compared to you loved picking up last minute sales for bonus's and or shifting old stock that just had to go.

Same applies today, service and parts is way more profit but you need to shift dead woood from the lot still.
