Default New/Different vibe at the dealership...

Stopped in yesterday to look at the 2019's and get a cup of coffee and what I noticed was the music playing...there was no classic rock but endless HEAVY head banging stuff. It later got me wondering if it was all part of the MoCo plan to entice younger dollars. it would after-all subliminally make millennials more "at home" than grandpa's brand of rock.

Hate to say, but a person working there like heavy music and put it on and you think the MOCO is doing that purposely to bring in more snowflakes?! If that is true, shouldn't they be putting on a newer music like Ariana Grande or Selena Gomez? That is what they are really listening to nowadays.

Actually, call me old, but I wish they'd get rid of the music altogether. And the fee beer, and the BS. I'm there to look at bikes, parts, etc, not for a freaking concert.

I dunno...at this point, I'm betting MoCo has a voodoo witch doctor on retainer to get the walking dead zombie millennial in the door...

You know what they say...If it's too loud, you're too old.

I hate to say it (because it makes me old) but, heavy head banging music has been around for a long time too. Millennials would likely call it "classic rock" too!

I guess I just don't go to motorcycle dealerships that often- there is no dealer for my motorcycle in my state, so I purchased it over the phone and had it shipped to me.
