Dealerships: Bradshaw Chevrolet-Buick-Cadillac-Pontiac-GMC and Bradshaw Hummer, Greer, S.C.; Breakaway Honda, Bradshaw Acura, Bradshaw Infiniti and Saturn of Greenville, Greenville, S.C.; Saturn of Asheville, Asheville, N.C.; Saturn of Spartanburg, Spartanburg, S.C. 2006 sales: 4,566 new vehicles, 3,075 used Quote: "There were issues in 2006 that caused some dealer concern. When we got into employee pricing in 2005, it probably created more heartburn with dealers than anything has in a long time. There was some initial elation, and cars were being sold, but then it was payback. Through it all, we continue to have constant dialogue with all manufacturers." (RON URSO)
