What People are Saying about the Jacksonville International Car & Truck Show
"The Show brought out real buyers. [It] resulted in a boost in February sales." -Morris Jelks, Sales Manager, North Florida Lincoln
"From a dealer’s perspective, this auto show was a hit. My salespeople who worked the show were very busy. One in particular arrived at the show armed with a one inch stack of business cards. An hour later his supply was gone. Even though our dealership is over 20 miles away from the convention center, we still had customers who drove out to the store following the show. My salespeople can’t wait till next year!" -Nathan Potratz, General Manager, Gordon Chevrolet
"The Auto show itself was a big success this year... We did see an increase during and after the show. We can quantify 3 new units at this point from interest at the show and I am sure many more... Both GM and Chrysler had great displays and knowledgeable folks talking about the product." -Ron Harris, Managing Partner, Garber Automall
"We had quite a bit of response from the auto show. We have attributed 9 vehicle sales directly from the show and have another 6 working. I can’t tell you how much exposure it generated for us but I know that I frequently get responses back from customers I talk to in both the sales department and the service department that they attended the show and enjoyed themselves." -Tim Peeler, General Manager, Honda of the Avenues
