My adopted father is old school. He has recently bought a car from another dealership which was a big thing for him. You see, years ago, he argued that someone didn't get so good service because they bought their car via internet purchase and so the service manager was not so accomodating. He always bought his cars from Dealer X. Reason was that in the past, they had a salesman there that sold only trucks and knew them inside out. Dealing with one dealership meant you got to know the people there and hence better service. Well, as someone mentioned, today people are more mobile. You buy a car from X but you live somewhere else. You are not going back there for service. Also, the guy who sold GM trucks today might be selling Ford cars tomorrow somewhere else.

What all this means is that things change, people move and life becomes more hetic. Also we move around a little mroe than we used to. Guy goes to school and comes back to hometown and works there isn't always true anymore. Friends that I had in kollege have moved on, interests change, etc, etc. When we were in skool, we were single and lived to party. Today we have moved away, got married, have kids, etc, etc. It is much easier when we all lived in a county to get to know people. Today, we move mroe and people we knew move on with their lives.

I guess that is going to be par for the course.
