August Newsletter

Here's a great Summer Recipe:

Looking for something cheap, cool and easy to make that helps you stay inside your summer swimsuit? I love "Doug's TUNAFISH salad" when its hot outside. Take a can of tunafish, mix in mayo along with chopped/diced celery, apple, sweet pickles, hard-boiled eggs and nuts (to taste...put in or leave out what you like) and mix it all up real good. Slap a thick spread between white loaf bread...yum. Or if you want to fancy it up....present it in Romaine Lettuce with garden fresh tomatoes and you'll have a cool summer tuna-salad salad!!!!!

Great low-carb/high-protein food which helps me when I am trying to control my weight by reducing carbs. If you on the Adkins diet, skip the sweet pickles and apple and you won't need salad dressing anyway. Put two tea bags on the back porch before you go to work in a gallon jar and when you come home, enjoy your Sun Tea with Splenda and some fresh lemons!  Cheap, cool and easy!

Business is great!

We have been blessed with strong demand for our Hyundai's and Kia's this year which has made it our best year ever (so far!) in business!  The Kia Sorento SUV and Optima sedan (both made in West Point, Georgia) and the Hyundai Elantra and Sonata (both made in Montgomery, Alabama) are doing excellent and enjoying rave reviews from the professional automotive journalists and testers.  Our Wilson Premier Collection ( www.wilsonpremiercollection.com ) dealership also is doing great selling late model Mercedes, BMW, Lexus, Acura and other nice cars.  We also have a fine service department in Ridgeland and have a special offer to let you get acquainted with us....$19.95 OIL CHANGE special (for most cars diesels and some German cars slightly higher).  Call us at (601)856-NICE...that's (601)856-6423 for a service appointment of drop-in without an appointment.

Road Construction is FAST:

The frontage road to our place in Ridgeland has been done in remarkable time!  Now you can exit 105A in Ridgeland off of Interstate 55 North and take the frontage road from Old Agency to Steed Road.  You'll end up directly in front of our new Wilson Premier Collection store!  The continuation of the frontage road from Steed Road to near the Madison/463 exit is supposed to be finished by December!  We are loving this new visibility and access off of I-55...and all the activity around the dealership just creates more excitement and activity!  Come see us and ride on the new roads your tax dollars are paying for!

We've been hiring:

As business has improved, we have been hiring in virtually all positions.  Please stop by and see some of the new people we have on board!  We are proud of the folks here at Wilson Hyundai, Wilson Kia on Lakeland and the Wilson Premier Collection....we've been "super-picky" and you'll love doing business here.  I recently got a great "compliment" when one of our prospective hires told me "Man, it's easier to get a job with the Secret Service that you guys!".  We'll take that as a compliment and when you stop in...you will see that we are serious when we tell you we want to be different than any other car dealership you've ever seen!  We still have room for a couple of hand-picked smiling faces if you know of someone who might qualify.
