Re: GMAC raises floorplan rates, reduces lease programs

What GMAC charges dealers for holding thier product.

Most dealers do not buy the vehicles in stock, they just pay interest on them.

I rember GMAC's call to our dealership once. "Hello this is so and so, with GMAC" "Do you realize that you have 75 units in stock?"

My boss say's "Yes I do" Theyy say "Do you realize that you have a limit of 55 units?"

My boss say's "I guess I have a new limit huh?"

GM dealers have stuck with GMAC much more than Ford dealers, so I have noticed. But that has changed recently, with Mortages at prime + 6%, and now higher floor plans, I see more and more dealers, jumping ship to banks like Scoitia.
