Certainly there are other options, as far as reinventing, but I'm burned out. Inventory is such a huge challenge, and even if I were a charity giving them away, people would make me out to be a crook. The ones that don't haggle me to insanity don't have a dime to their name. No other business is it like this.

I am lucky to have some very good opportunities which will be more stable and lucrative. As things get more set in stone I will update, but like others have posted, this is a good thing.

My body guy/painter and I are talking about getting a warehouse and a dealer's license, buying the slight to moderately damaged, clean title repos and trade ins, fixing & flip. It will be part time for me, keeping me in the biz somewhat. We can also do the occasional fun car as the good or fun opportunity presents itself.

I've already sold 6 cars for the month, so no complaints. If I can keep it up I'll bust the record set in May and put myself in the black. Things slow down so dramatically after this, so I know I can't keep it up.
