Low Rider

Greetings once again!  This unseasonable weather is out of left field, but I'm not complaining by any means.  It's nice to leave the scarf and hat at home.


What I am complaining about is Yelp!  A few weeks ago we finally got our first review on there, and it was Five stars.  I was ecstatic.  I logged on yesterday to check the site and found this:
"No active reviews for this business (1 filtered review)."


Perplexed, I dug a little deeper.  As it turns out that Yelp! has an automatic filter system that tries to eliminate spam and fake reviews.  This "system" occasionally snags a real review and filters it.  This wouldn't be too big of an issue if I could contact someone about removing the filter, since it is a genuine review.  However, Yelp! has decided that customer support isn't important.


In the Frequently Asked Questions, under "Will You Reinstate a Legitimate Review that was Filtered" they say: "Either way, business owners should probably focus less on any one review and more on their entire body of reviews."  That's well and fine... IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN JUST ONE REVIEW!  But when you are just starting out on a site, this is extremely inconvenient.


So I pose this question to you: Do you use Yelp! day-to-day, or have you ever even heard of the website?  Is it still worth maintaining our place on Yelp?


Hope all is well with you.  Keep in touch!

Flashing the Head Lights

We really hope the you still in good health if you chose to go out shopping yesterday.  There is an outrageous video of a mob flooding an Urban Outfitters on YouTube.  That's just crazy.  We'd love to pass on savings to you, but in a more orderly fashion.  We are currently running a Red Tag sale!  Didn't think you could find an affordable car with bad or no credit?  Turned down by the big banks too many times?  We are here for you!

For those of you out there who enjoy the NBA (like me) the union and commission have reached a "hand-shake" agreement.  Sounds like the season will start on Christmas day barring any break-down in negotiations. Here's to hoping we get to see some Sixers action come the holidays!

Happy Turkey Day!

Hope you all have a fantastic Thanksgiving Day tomorrow.  I personally will be heading down to Lancaster with my dad and siblings to visit my grandparents.  I'm so excited for the stuffing and cranberry sauce.  My grandfather carves a mean turkey, too.  Let me know what your plans are in the comments below!

So a few days ago I was heading out to see a movie with my buddy.  We were heading down 313 from Doylestown and a deer hopped out in front of us.  Going 55mph, I slammed on the brakes and narrowly missed the deer by 3 feet!  It was a big one, too, with a 7 or 8 point rack.  That got my heart pounding.  Have you had any close calls recently?

Just a heads up: Keep your eyes peeled for our Christmas drawing coming up soon.

Finally, our Red Tag sale is going on NOW, so swing by to see what we can do for you.  No credit, NO problem!

Here Come the Holidays!

The Christmas music has already started.  Some love it, some hate it.  Personally I don't mind it, though it does seem to arrive earlier every year.  Companies want us to get into the spending mood sooner and sooner.  We understand that money can get tight around this time of year, and we are here to help out.  Currently we are running a RED TAG sale, which you can get more details about from a sales associate (Mark or me, Drew).  Let us aid your wallet or purse these next few weeks and get you into the car you deserve! Call 215-257-4995 to reach us.

Speaking of the Christmas spirit, we are still running our Toys for Tots Donation Drive through the US Marine Corps Reserve.  Please, if you have anything to give, a family in your community would appreciate the gift.  We can accept new, unwrapped toys, clothes, and canned food.

Thanks folks, I'll be back soon!

Gobble Gobble!

Our turkey drive went off without a hitch today!  We handed out thirty-seven birds as well as cans of cranberry sauce and boxes of stuffing!  That's a lot of Thanksgiving eatery!  For those of you who did not receive a turkey today, swing by tomorrow (Saturday) to snag what is left.  We are open until 3pm.

Don't forget that our blog is not simply about us.  Check out our Fun Times! page for some laughs or our Auto Industry page for tips on saving gas and preparing for the winter.

As always, have an excellent day and we hope to see you soon!

Looking In The Rear View Mirror

It's incredible to me that Thanksgiving is right around the corner, with winter on its heels.  Feels like just yesterday 80 degree weather was making me sweat while outside disc-golfing.  Any disc-golfers out there?  I've found two great courses in the area that are worth checking out (although with winter on the way it may get too chilly to play).


-  Lake Lenape Park in Perkasie, PA
-  Lake Nockamixon Park in Bucks County, PA


Some reminders as we look back on the previous weeks:

Lots of One's Today!

     As we all know, today is 11/11/11.  To celebrate, I will make mention of important One's happening here.  First of all, if you are an active customer, we will have One turkey waiting for you on Saturday, November 19th between 9am and 3pm.  Come by then to pick it up.  We have been having One big problem with our computer software MSP by Constellation Auto.  They reset the servers on Wednesday and it screwed up everyone.  We've been dealing with it, but some advance notice from them would have been nice.  We also have One Yelp! page, One Foursquare page, One Facebook page, One website, One Twitter account, and One YouTube channel.  Check us out if you get the chance!

There Is No Stopping Us!


In case you didn't know, a turkey will be waiting for you at our office on Saturday, November 19th.  Swing by to claim your bird, or it will be super lonely on Thanksgiving Day.  We appreciate our customers immensely!  You all are the reason we've been here for twenty years, and will continue to do business for another twenty!

Who uses Craigslist?  Anyone?  If you do let me know (chargeacar92@gmail.com).  I've been trying to post our vehicles on the website, but we are continually "ghosted" every time.  Not sure what is causing the problem, but let me know if you have any advice.  It would be greatly appreciated!

And don't forget, we are also awaiting donations for our Toys For Tots drive through the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve.  Help make a brighter holiday season for those less fortunate.  Get into the Christmas Giving Spirit early this year!

As always, tell your friends about us.  If someone you know needs a vehicle, or maybe you do, we can assist you.  Many of our customers even drive off our lot the same day.  We make the process painless, and unlike other buy here pay here programs, we will WORK WITH YOU.

Have an awesome day!

Revving the Engine

Starting this month off right!  We've enjoyed assisting five customers into three new vehicles.  Things are clickin' here, with fresh donuts and coffee, and hotdogs on the way for lunch.  Every Friday lunch is provided, so if you are able to swing by help yourself to a hotdog!

I've certainly enjoyed constructing this blog, and Blogger makes the process easy.  Today I am going to begin work on a monthly newsletter that can be given away to customers, friends, and passers-by.  There's a lot of design that goes into making a project like this look professional.  It should prove to be a fun challenge!

Also, we've got a new incentive for customers and non-customers alike!  Who is next in line in your family or friends to reestablish credit and get the car they deserve?  Send them our way: we'll treat them right and, if they purchase a vehicle from us, you get FIFTY bucks!

Here's to hoping everyone has their power back!  Stay safe, stay warm, stay confident!

Head for the Hills, Turkeys!

November is already here.  It's the last chance to enjoy pumpkins, falling leaves, and hay rides before the chill and ice of winter cover them up.  Many have already been covered up by a sudden entrance of winter, some still without power, others with fallen tree branches and debris all about their yards.  I hope those affected adversely by the snow storm Saturday can get their power and water back soon.  I also am grateful for the thousands of emergency officers, maintenance workers, and volunteers who have helped clean up and repair the mess left in the wake of the snow.  See someone who needs help?  Give them a hand.

If you haven't already, check out our other pages on the blog and enjoy yourself!  Thanks for reading!
