Michael SpiegelGUEST
Well, David, first of all, we are sweet and kind, in case you didn't know that.

Michael SpiegelGUEST
However, you know, our Toyota store is the number one volume store in the state of Michigan.

Michael SpiegelGUEST
In multiple of our 20 groups, we're number one in profitability as a percentage of net to gross, net to sales in our groups.

Michael SpiegelGUEST
So we absolutely focus on performance metrics as well, both from a volume perspective in sales and a profitability.

What advice would you give to young leaders? I mean, now you are the teacher, you were the student for so many years, but what lesson would you like to impart to them?

Michael SpiegelGUEST
Yeah, Australia certainly has a lot of differences between the United States.

Michael SpiegelGUEST
It could not possibly create trade restrictions with China because it relies on China for so many things that are vital to that small little island.

Michael SpiegelGUEST
However, there's no doubt that it had some adverse effects based on the Australian dealers who both compete against the Chinese OEMs, but also Australian dealers who represented some of the Chinese OEMs.

Michael SpiegelGUEST
So the story that you spoke of, I heard firsthand from dealers and manufacturers in China.
