Dustin's Take

Dustin Schuler, Marketing Director, Bud Clary Auto Group

What I wish buyers knew: I never want someone to find out about these programs after they've already signed. If you've served, or you run toward emergencies for a living, ask about it first. It's money you've earned, and it works with most of the offers already on the vehicle.
