Rent-to-own News - KLQ Rent-n-Roll exhibits at Seattle International Auto Show

November 2, 2007

Kevin Quinn of KLQ Enterprises in Tacoma, Washington, has taken his Rent-n-Roll franchise on the road—specifically to the Seattle International Auto Show. KLQ-RNR has a booth promoting his wheel and tire products at this annual event that draws people from Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. The show opened October 31 and runs through November 4 and is being held at the Qwest Field Event Center in Seattle. “Kevin Quinn’s people are not only promoting Rent-n-Roll in their market, but also promoting Joe Recla’s Rent-n-Roll operation in Boise, Idaho, and Joe Brandes and David Griffey’s RNR operation in Milwaukee, Oregon,” reports Quality Rentals’ Mike Little. The photo below was sent in by Little from the show floor.
