NORCROSS, Ga. — Motor Trend Certified Vehicles, a certified pre-owned program for franchised dealers, has announced that Town & Country Ford has become the exclusive Motor Trend Certified Dealer in Evansville, Ind.

Motor Trend Certified Dealers are selected and appointed based on their focus on quality and a positive customer experience, officials said. They must have a history of excellent customer reviews and outstanding service. Motor Trend certification allows Town & Country Ford to offer Motor Trend-certified pre-owned vehicles and Motor Trend-certified service from their service department, on an exclusive basis in their designated territory.

Town & Country Ford has an outstanding reputation as one of the most trusted car dealerships in the Evansville area, according to Motor Trend. It was an easy choice for the Motor Trend selection committee to award the dealership membership in the program.

“We are excited to add Town & Country Ford to the Motor Trend Certified Vehicles program,” said Larry Dorfman, chairman & CEO of EasyCare who powers the Motor Trend Certified program. “Town & Country Ford delivers service which is unparalleled in its Evansville community. Dealerships that really hone in on providing a better shopping, buying, and ownership experience for their customers are the heart of the Motor Trend Certified program. With Motor Trend certified vehicles on its lot, and a Motor Trend certified service department, Town & Country Ford can now improve its customer relationships and put forth unrivaled pre-owned vehicle quality.”

Consumer demand for certified pre-owned vehicles has continued to rise sharply since 2009 and climbed more than 27% year-over-year for 2014. As a Motor Trend Certified Dealer, Town & Country Ford is now able to not only certify Ford vehicles on its pre-owned lot, but also benefit from strong consumer demand for certified vehicles by offering Motor Trend Certification on all of its other makes and models. The dealership began offering Motor Trend Certified vehicles on Friday, May 29.

Timing the Market Can Hurt Long-Term Program Performance

For dealer-owned reinsurance entities, avoiding volatility entirely can mean falling behind inflation and missing market rebounds that drive long term surplus growth. Missing just a handful of strong market days can materially impact cumulative returns—an important reminder for long horizon trust and investment strategies.
