CONVENIENCE Total vehicle services including
maintenance, management and acquisition, all with one company that handles everything.
CUSTOMIZED PROGRAMS including advanced software programs to track and
remind you about every step from on-time registration to renewal, insurance, maintenance
and more.
SERVICE The kind that only a company that truly believes in service
can deliver, not just talk about. Service that goes far, far beyond the delivery of the
new vehicle...from delivery to renewal and everything in between.
FLEET PRICING on a cost-plus basis to provide consistent, reliable prices and
take the "guesswork" out of price-comparison shopping. And further savings by
taking advantage of our Commercial Fleet buying power and factory fleet incentives.
Extensive bank relationships provide further assurance of highly competitive bank rates
via special financing programs for the religious community. And all this information gets
processed through our new computer programs - similar to a travel agent's system - to make
sure you get the best pricing.
FULL BENEFITS of our services and maintenance even if your vehicle(s) were
purchased or leased elsewhere (as long as you are part of an organization within our fleet
program).
LEASE AND FINANCE programs to fit your budget and the way your vehicle(s) are
used to help make them more affordable.
WARRANTY COVERAGE We assist you in handling all types of warranty claims.
If you'd like the further comfort of extended warranty coverage, we'll arrange for that as
well. Warranty service or normal maintenance we do it or get it done for you.
USED VEHICLE DISPOSAL Instead of group selling at auction, we look
at every used car individually and work to get the best resale price attainable.
RENTAL AND SHORT TERM LEASES Whether you are traveling on business
for a few days, or need a summer or winter leasing plan for a few months, they're all
available anywhere in the country and at our special, low fleet rates.
CELLULAR PHONE PLAN
A cellular phone can be included in the purchase or lease of your new vehicle.

Benefits
for Milwaukee Area Customers
PERSONAL VEHICLE SERVICING at our
Milwaukee Service Center, with real, money-saving discounts on both parts and labor.
RELIABLE, EXPERT SERVICE WORK by quality technicians and supervised by our ASE
Certified Service Manager, with us since 1981.
PICK-UP AND DROP OFF SERVICE when you don't have the time to bring your vehicle
in and wait.
UNLIMITED SELECTION of all types of vehicles from us, new or used, (including
multi-passenger vehicles, sport utilities, vans, buses etc.) saves time and energy finding
the right vehicle. Because we do not sell or lease a specific brand only, we have no
product bias. We can help you select the best product for your needs because our loyalty
is to you, not the car maker.
"FIRST HAND" USED CARS Most of them are our own off-lease
vehicles that we know "First Hand." Since we purchased them new for lease
- and serviced them - we know them well, including their service history. And that adds up
to complete peace of mind for you, and substantial savings, when you purchase or lease one
of our used cars.
COMPREHENSIVE TRADE-IN PLAN Your existing vehicle can be used as a trade-in or we
will purchase it from you at a very favorable "market" price or sell it through
our Re-Marketing Department.
REMINDER COUPONS All vehicles serviced at our Milwaukee Service Department
will be sent an oil service reminder based on appropriate mileage or time intervals.
LOANER VEHICLES - with a reservation - while yours is in our shop overnight and
you need a car during the servicing time.
