It was $20K profit per day through the dealership workshop from memory, if you got that each day for Monday-Friday then the mechanics and service advisors got bonuses.

That was 2010 though so its going back a while, I'm not sure if this is in place for dealerships today,

Also I find the commentary in this thread interesting, we have people saying its not the dealership network thats the problem, then the guy who works at Ford Australia says its not Ford Australia thats the problem, its the dealership network and multiple Ford Australia CEOs have said they're going to address the dealership network and fallen short.

So whats our story?

Thats good odds when you think about it - 0.04% failure rate.
