Preakness Chevy

Anyone know if they have been shut down? My girlfriend called me this morning and told me on her way to work she saw not a single car in any of their lots and the showroom was empty. Sucks because I have no where to take my Crapbalt for service now.

Everything IS gone! There were a few people working in the service area but I think they are just finishing what they had because there was nothing outside.

GM probably pulled the cars. There's a car carrier where I work picking up our cars now. Were going to be open for service for about another month or 2 and then it's closing up.

They were in the process of selling the Cadillac franchise. If GM accepts the deal I'll be moving over to Lucas. If not, I'm not sure where I'll end up.
