For those of you who own and/or work at a dealership, have you noticed any change in sales depending on the state of the stock market? I ask because I remember in late 1999 or early 2000, it seemed like there were a lot of brand new cars on the road, and I would assume it was in part related to a lot of money being made in the stock market.

This year has been great for stocks, and I was curious if dealerships notice a change in sales, or if it's imperceptible.
