    Is there a reason they don't have a dedicated dealer forum here? Seems like it would be very easy to do.

    I'm def all for it. that is a great suggestion.

    speaking of dealers too in Boston, Herb Chambers Toyota on Brighton is top notch. I was very impressed by their service. Went there twice when I lived in Boston and have absolutly no complaints

    We already have a Dealers & Pricing forum where PriusChatters report on their dealer and pricing experiences.

    Are you talking about something else?

    What do you have in mind? I don't think we're likely to start a forum that is just wide open for dealers to advertise their wares. We do have a commercial advertising forum and you're welcome to contact [email protected] to request to become a paid advertiser/sponsor of Priuschat.

    If you want somewhere for dealers to discuss specific question we could consider that, but would want to know exactly what kind of set up you'd need/want.

    In general, any questions you may, as a dealer, have can be answered by the posters in the general forums and we do have a few other dealers who post some helpful information about delivery issues and such.

    So, what do you want/expect/need in a dealer specific forum and we can take it to the site owner and see what we can do.

    Interesting thought, though there's no reason a dealer can't join like any other member. Of course, if your sole interest is commercial, you should be honest about it. Be prepared for competitive comparison shopping, and some bold critique of standard dealer practices. :cool:
