The cost of buying and maintaining a vehicle, and efforts to train more automotive technicians in the Rochester region, are the focus of the Nov. 9 edition of Connections with Evan Dawson. The YouTube broadcast is scheduled to begin at 12:04 p.m. Eastern.
The upcoming discussion examines how industry shifts, regulatory requirements and rising ownership expenses affect vehicle affordability. Guests will also discuss the nationwide shortage of automotive technicians, training workers to service increasingly sophisticated vehicles and what it would take to make buying and owning a vehicle more affordable.
Guests are:
- Brad McAreavy, president of the Rochester Automobile Dealers Association.
- Kevin Parker, owner of Parker Automotive in Webster.
- Charlie Vita, chief lending officer at Canandaigua National Bank.
