COVID-19 Status Update // April 22, 2020
Some positive news came from Governor Polis’s announcement on Monday. Curve-flattening seems to be working, and we are moving towards what we hope will be some normalcy. The Governor outlined the plan to move toward Phase 2, labeling this next phase “Safer at Home.” This is undoubtedly a move in the right direction but still will not allow us to fully open our showrooms as this was not made clear in the plan.
CADA is working with the Governor’s office to get some clarification and allow our showroom to be open under proper controls. So, with all this in mind, we will continue to operate under the same restrictions and parameters. Parts and service will continue to operate under the current program as well.
Regarding sales, please remember our showroom is closed, and we need to make it appear that way at all times (not an easy task as we are getting busier). Please make sure all showroom doors are closed and locked. We have heard from a tire repair vendor that dealerships have been checked by the Colorado Auto Division and fined in cases where the showroom doors were not locked.
On a positive note, we presented our “Share the Love” check via a Zoom gathering with the wonderful staff at our chosen charity, “There With Care.” With the awesome support of our sales, parts, and service staff, we were able to donate a check of $75,000!! Check out the video below; there are lots of tears.
Take care everyone and thank you for your commitment during these unusual days!
