Automotive Expert Bobby Likis' 'State of the Automotive Industry' Suite

Automotive Expert Bobby Likis' 'State of the Automotive Industry' Suite

Frank commentary on Aftermarket Sweet Spot, Automotive Maintenance, Gas Prices, General Motors and Chairman Toyoda's Testimony

PENSACOLA, Fla., March 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Respected automotive industry expert & host of the nationally syndicated "Bobby Likis Car Clinic" broadcast, Bobby Likis tells it like it is in the automotive service aftermarket industry (including the aftermarket "sweet spot," automotive maintenance & gas prices); shares what he learned during his recorded interview with Mark Reuss (President, General Motors North America); and gives insight into Chairman Akio Toyoda's testimony before Congress.

Published in March's Aftermarket Business magazine, Likis lasered his 38 years of experience in the automotive service aftermarket industry to predict its future. Says Likis, "I'm a sharp shooter & I'm going right to the heart of the matter...the industry struggles with its broken business model of buying customers with its $19.95 oil change, forcing up-sells that continue to devalue - and degrade - the service industry." He adds, "The automotive service aftermarket sector is fragmented and needs re-genesis & a fresh start in consumers' eyes." Likis' recorded analysis is available in its entirety or in short segments on www.YouTube.com/BobbyLikis. See videos titled "Aftermarket Sweet Spot."

Mark Reuss talked candidly with Likis as Reuss drove a 2011 Cruze from Detroit to Lordstown, OH, the site of a "recall" of another kind: that of bringing back 1200 laid-off General Motors workers. Likis revealed little known facts about Reuss and chatted about GM's impact on the economy. www.YouTube.com/BobbyLikis. See "Bobby Shares the Mic with...Mark Reuss."

Appearing on the Santa Barbara News Network, Likis reflected on Chairman Toyoda's Congressional testimony. Short video clip at www.thesbnn.com/?p=6415.
