My damn Lincoln dealer closed up shop

These guys are unbelievable, after this large automotive dealership group (All American) bought out my Lincoln dealership (Prestige) 2 years ago, they shut it down today.  I got an email a few days ago, so basically a 3 day heads up for their customers.  Real nice, so Lincoln of Paramus in NJ is now closed.  I'm so glad that I bought my car days before ownership changed.  I kinda figured this might happen.  

 

Luckily I have a Lincoln dealer that's even closer to me than they were, and not being a Black Label dealer is the only reason that I did not initially go there when buying.

I'm sure Billy Fuccillo will sweep in and take it.

Hi fusionff. Well...that stinks! And I know how hard it can be to find a convenient Lincoln Black Label certified Dealer in NJ. With traffic, the closest Black Label Dealers were ~30 minutes in any direction. ?

That was one of the reasons I wound up going with the Reserve trim for my 2018, instead of Black Label (the other was being forced to have a moonroof for the options I wanted).

 

If it is any consolation (and I realize it will not be): Since purchasing my first new car in 1976, 2 Ford and 3 Lincoln or Lincoln/Mercury Dealers that I patronized have closed in my area, forcing me to go further and further from home for my cars. Began to seem as though a Lincoln or Ford Dealership was doomed if I bought from them. ?

 

Good luck.
