Free. Every week. Built for operators.
Who's Writing This
I work in automotive retail. I sit in the same sales meetings, pull reports from the same DMS platforms, and deal with the same Friday afternoon funding fires as the people reading this. That's not a bio flex, it's context, because where you sit determines what you see and what I see every day are specific operational problems that AI can solve faster and cheaper than the traditional vendor path.
I started building AI workflows for dealerships not because it was trendy, but because I got tired of waiting for a vendor to build something that got me 70% of the way there and charged me like it was 100%. Service defection tracking, inventory turn prediction, lead response analysis, F&I deal jacket validation — these aren't concepts I read about in a whitepaper. They're problems I've watched eat margin in real stores.
Every issue of Mobility Forward takes a real problem from the showroom floor and shows you how AI can solve it, with dollar amounts, timelines, and tool recommendations. No theory. No vendor pitches. Just what's working right now for dealer operators who've decided to stop waiting and start building.
Latest from Mobility Forward
77% of dealers have integrated AI tools, but how many of them can tell you the dollar impact? The gap between intentional and accidental AI adoption is about to show up in the numbers.

Every issue is built around one question: what can you actually do with AI in your store this week?
Every article starts with a specific dealership problem and includes dollar amounts, timelines, and tool names. A service defection tracker built for $4,000 that paid for itself in month one — that kind of specific.
Written by someone who works in automotive retail, not someone selling into it. The difference shows up in every recommendation, because the suggestions come from someone who has to live with the results.
Each issue lands on something you can start this week. Not "someday when you have budget" or "once the vendor roadmap catches up." Upwork developers, open-source tools, and workflows you can build now.
What Cox, CDK, and Tekion are actually doing with AI, what the NADA floor really looked like, and what it all means for your store — not the press release version, the operator version.
Every week, one actionable AI insight for your dealership. Free.
