What San Diego customers are searching for

Why most car dealerships miss out
Inventory turns weekly and most dealer GBPs and websites are stale — losing the buyers actively searching for what's on the lot.
Service-department searches are a massive recurring revenue line but most dealers under-optimize them.
Independent and used-car lots compete with national brands (CarMax, Carvana) on every used-car search and need hyper-local positioning to win.
