Floorplan tip for independent dealers: Don't think of your floorplan as just a credit line. Think of it as an inventory velocity tool. The faster you turn vehicles, the more your floor plan works for you.

With City Auto Finance's 135-day no-curtailment terms, you have the breathing room to price strategically, not desperately. That's the difference between reactive selling and confident selling.
