Re: Lexus VS Jeep Marketing
I dunno about where you guys are but Lexus has a terrible resale value here.
Anyone in this city with enough money to buy a Lexus will buy one new.
BTW, I have rarely seen a Jeep ad on TV that I didn't like ...they have a
good marketing team and are at least keeping the 4x4 aspect of their
vehicles as the main focus.
