After 3 buildings since 1958 and it's first major renovation, Laidlaw's 4.0 is here and the Grand Opening celebration is set for June 29th, 2024.

I can only imagine the look on the faces of William Harley and Arthur Davidson were they to walk into your renovated dealership and see what their company has grown to after 120 years! Congratulations to the Laidlaw family !

I love the old men like you that think Harley will survive the new generations. No one young wants a Harley. Or even thinks about it compared to other bikes out.

@@lawncaretoamillion old and tired argument..... Plenty of young people love Harleys but right now they are just trying to survive. Housing is inappropriately expensive right now and so is rent which is taking 50-80% of "young peoples" income. The fuel, utilities, and grocery bills are taking what remains. There is no money left for the Harley.

@@electricalsociety5593 idk how old you are, my friends and I buy 5 bikes for the price of a Harley. You have one. All of us have rode Harleys. The price for what you get isn’t there. Never was. I’m glad to see the dealerships shut down. The brand has no idea who they are or what they sell.

I have visited many dealerships and can say that the remodeling of Laidlaw's is top notch! It just pops inside and out. Very, very nice. If those watching own a dealership, you should be looking at doing similar.

The American Dream: As a kid, Grandpa gets called to fight a war in a land he never heard off, comes home and immediately starts working in a trade, and gets the tenacity to start his own business. That's the generational attitude I wish would make a resurgence.

Nice work- beautiful showroom .... imagine it cost a pretty penny. The future "look" of dealerships is impressive but it also serves as a reminder to me (and hopefully Jochen Zeitz and the rest of corporate) that Harley-Davidson is a people business. That new showroom is the result of three generations of Laidlaws building long term relationships with its customers. Without that the fanciest showroom in the world doesn't mean a damn thing. My local mom and pop dealership just celebrated their 40th. Much of the staff has been there for years which doesn't seem to be the case with some big dealer groups where employees seem to change almost as quick as the weather and some of their attitudes didn't leave a positive impression. It's nice to be remembered by name when you come through the door, treated fairly whether you're buying a t-shirt or a new bike. All the best for future success.
@MattLaidlaw

Well said. Yea, it's sad what dealer groups have done to the H-D Dealership network. Ripped the soul out and favored greed over anything else.

Looks fantastic. I’ve had the opportunity to purchase 3 bikes at Laidlaw’s over the year’s. 2 at the Rosemead store and 1 at the Puente store. 1983, 1087 and 2008. Moved to Colorado, Teddy Morse is my Dealer here….. you guy’s stopped here on your way to Sturgis last year. Tell Bob the dealership looks high class great job.
@RK-de5wg
@RK-de5wg Месяц назад
Congratulations Matt and to everyone involved. As a small boat dealer, I can see that there was a lot of sweat equity in building that store, not just money as that always helps, but it’s mostly the heart behind it. Best of luck to you with the new store.
@MattLaidlaw
@MattLaidlaw Месяц назад
Yea, the sweat equity of 66 years (Mostly Bob, Jerry, and Brent) comes in as a factor.

I appreciate the walkaround showing the new facility. I've been going into HD dealerships for nearly 30 years and for a long time my wife didn't want to go with me, she felt intimidated and anything but welcome (to be fair, she's gotten over it and now goes into a dealership without me if she's looking for something she wants). The shift toward updating the dealerships is a good change -- folks need to feel comfortable and relaxed and this redesign should help to continue to grow your business and further enhance the brand. We don't have anything like your showroom here in Colorado and it would be nice to see some renovation/modernization take place here. Seeing this makes me want to buy my next bike from Laidlaw's.

Very kewl, Matt! Great job! Modern, clean, spacious, & well organized. Looks like a place you want to go to and want spend time in. Nothing H-D is cheap, so the Dealer experience should be a premium experience, and Laidlaw’s new renovated Dealership delivers! Customers can hang and being surrounded by everything H-D instead of the lounge being buried in the back encourages them to browse and/or shop. Looks like a winner to me! Congrats and the best of luck and best wishes to you and your staff! Definitely looks like a must-see if you’re in the area! I def must put it on my to-do list as a new retiree relocating soon from NJ to my new home in southern AZ. Cheers!

In 2007 I was referred to your dealer by a female highway patrol officer I remember when she brought her bike to my job to show it to me she asked me to seat on her bike then this what she said “ whenever you want to buy a Harley Davidson go to Laidlaw’s cause all those other dealers will rip you off “ so I bought my ever first bike in 2019 from you guys 💪🤘

One thing I thought was a nice touch was the curvy road coming out the front door on the old design. I have heard corporate wants all dealerships to look alike. I don’t know how true that is but it’s a shame you can’t make it your own. The lighting and the wheel chocks are a nice touch.

Looks amazing Matt! I love the new modern but industrial look Harley is doing. Yesterday my mother and I checked out Sturgis Harleys new look, which has the same decor as you. My mom managed that store from 1987 to 2009, I more less grew up in that store. Originally it was on Main Street in the old movie theater and then later moved to its current location, which is an old grocery store. At first I was a bit sad to see a chapter of my life disappear, but I really like the new look! My mom was impressed as well, which takes a lot from her. Keep up the great work and hopefully I can see your dealership in person one day.
