MD car dealers

Anybody know why they don't advertise on AutoTrader.com?

For Dealers to advertise on Autotrader.com, you have to advertise in the Auto Trader magazines.

When I was working for Prince Frederick Ford, Autotrader stop by to sell them the magazine advertisement with online service. One of the biggest problems/issues with the Autotrader magazines is that it covers VA/DC/MD/WV in one booklet.

If they had a Southern MD or East of DC/South of Annapolis region, I think they dealers would do it. Then again, we have the Pennysaver

Just checked and it has a total of 18 listings for St. Marys, Calvert, Charles and PG counties

If you want to look for a particular make/model, AutoTrader works great for VA dealers, but nothing in MD

PF Ford used to do 1-3 full pages per flyer. I don't get the pennysaver any more, no news paper.

OK, it dropped to 1500 with used cars.

add in a manual transmission and it drops to 80

Guess what I'm looking for isn't in the area
