Bill Heard Bites the Dust



In January 2006, I reported on Bill Heard Chevrolet as perhaps being the worst auto dealer anywhere. Bill Heard also happened to be the largest Chevrolet dealer in the country, 14 locations moving about $2 billion in sales. That's history now. This past week, Bill Heard Enterprises, Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. There are some signs that they were shut down by GMAC, the company that floorplanned the dealer's inventory.

Jalopnik.com has an good article with interesting pictures about the current status of the dealership in Sugarland, Texas. That's where this picture comes from. The employees didn't even get the chance to javascript:void(0)take their family photos home.

Don't worry too much about old Billy boy, he and his wife bought a $18 million, 28,000 square foot house in Columbus, Georgia. Ain't homestead exemptions great?
