We always look forward to FLD Remarketing’s annual Year in Review of the used vehicle market. This week, Bill Bishop talks about the key themes, trends and high/low points that defined 2024. In the coming weeks, Bishop will give us his thoughts on what is ahead for 2025.
We were delighted to sit down with Josh DeLaune, who, with his dad Scooter, founded American Coating Company, and its subsidiary, Patriot Fleet Solutions. We were eager to learn about the genesis of this thriving upfitter. It is one of those wonderful American stories of enterprise.
Do you market to fleets? If so, do not miss Ed Pierce’s Call to Action column in this issue. It is a blueprint for effective marketing strategies.
Our hearts are with our friends in Los Angeles. It is my old hometown, and I have seen many fires over the years, but nothing like this. We pray for your safety.
