Dealer.com Becomes Primary Web Platform for Cox Automotive Clients
ATLANTA — Cox Automotive announced that the Dealer.com website solution will serve as the primary solution for Cox Automotive customers. Current users of VinSolutions’ website product will migrate to the Dealer.com platform beginning in early 2016.
