Though dealers in his region of the country reported slow retail sales for both new and used vehicles during the Thanksgiving weekend, one auction executive said the holiday did not impact the auction lanes.
In the post-sale report from Tuesday’s action at Brasher’s Sacramento Auto Auction, John Brasher said the holiday, combined with warm, get-outdoors weather in Northern California, contributed to a lack of shoppers on dealers’ lots.
“However, dealers needed inventory, and our sale was strong,” he said of the auction.
