With a growing number of iPhone Apps hitting the market, you may want to have your IT dept look into creating an iPhone App for your dealership. Especially if you are a highline store or have a large customer retention base from service. People are falling head-over-heels with the techno geek gadgets of today. This is one more of the latest, in a long line of things like social network pages, live chat systems and others.

How much is that worth?
