Default Rossmeyers Boston may be sold?

Rumor has it up here in Boston, that Rossmeyers family is looking to sell out the newly acquired Boston Harley Davidson. Anybody know the true story? That dealership has been mismanaged for many years! What a shame...

There it is...we can analyze or rationalize these things to death, but the simple truth is that when things were booming, too many dealerships were opened, and now some of them can't survive and have got to go...

It's a shame... they transfered a parts guy that I really like from Sunrise to Pompano not too long ago.

The family is selling off or closing stores. They simply don't have the enthusiasm Bruce did. From what I understand Ormond and 1 or 2 other stores will remain open. My understanding is the decision was personal more than financial. That's what I hear and I may be wrong.
