Description:
When Bob Bosse (80) decides to retire from the empire that he built from a car dealership bearing his name, he leaves the business to his quite incapable son Matt Bosse who intends on growing the business and proving his worth. The trouble is Matt is somewhat incompetent and doesn’t know the first thing about running a business. He often makes decisions that confuse his sales staff and back office personnel, leaving them thinking him to be an idiot. This fast paced comedy set in Henderson Nevada, just outside of Los Vegas will take you on a ride as Matt and his motley crew of salesmen run the car business seemingly into the ground. Car lot… “we sell cars”.
