Hi Chris,

Sorry, I've only been to Florida on business and I don't think I know Gerald. I read your bio and I also don't think our paths have crossed over the years. Now that they have, I'm sure to remember Chris Raley from S.C. that has time in his busy career to have a wife, five children and still have time to ride a motorcycle...proof that you can have it all! Best of luck in all your endeavors. Lynn

Hi Chris
I see from your resume that you have extensive experience in the dealer truck business. DLL work as a vendor finance provider: we do not do customer direct business and are not resourced for it. We are always interested to talk to large dealers and manufacturers on a programme basis.
Best Wishes

Thanks Chris, I look forward to seeing what you have on this one. I just met with a leasing company that has one they want us to chase in NC also. By the way, do you look at deals on a national or just regional basis?

Yes, I'm with Linda, It seems good for both entities, and I like working with Linda; we've been friends for a dozen years. Seems cost effective.

Thanks..
