AI is coming to your dealership. In many cases, it's already there. The question is not whether you invest — the question is how.

In this episode, Jim Flint explains why summer is the most important AI investment window, and why building in July means you're ready to execute in September. 

Building is not the same as waiting. The dealers who win with AI will start the build in July.
