Showroom walls are coming down

Monday, April 15th, 2013

Our last week in the old sales showroom. These walls have been in the same spot for over 60 years, and are coming down this week. Of course we haven’t had room to “show” cars in there for quite a while…. LOL. Once completed, the new showroom will be able to showcase 4 vehicles. Total dealership remodel completion date is still the end of June, 2013. Thanks again to everyone for your patience through this process. We appreciate each and every one of you.

Lighthouse Joke of the week…. :)

Monday, December 3rd, 2012

Lighthouse Automotive Joke of the Week! Courtesy of our employee Mike Hucal.

Wife: “There is trouble with the car. It has water in the carburetor.”

Husband: “Water in the carburetor? That’s ridiculous.”

Wife: “I tell you the car has water in the carburetor!”

Husband: “You don’t even know what a carburetor is. I’ll check it out. Where’s the car?”

Wife: “In the pool.”

New used oil furnaces in operation!

Tuesday, October 9th, 2012

Yesterday, we fired up our 2 new waste oil furnaces! These state of the art heaters burn used engine oil instead of using natural gas. A large tank stores the used oil, then pumps it into these furnaces when needed. This is a very energy efficient and green way to heat our service department. Stop by and check it out!
