Serious problem for us. After 12 years of promoting a brand that has had many warranty issues through the later years, which we have had to deal with ourselves, a new dealer was named. Since the new dealer wants to start selling, we are losing sales to dumb pricing and sales strategies. It's not only bad for us, but I believe in the long run this will have a terrible outcome for the factory if they don't at least regulate pricing between dueling dealers. This gets worse in a small country like ours with a merely 80 truck per year market were competition was already tough and were all major players as well as unkown brands are fighting for market share. Will manufacturers eventually come to their senses?

According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
