Mountainview Harley-Davidson

Village West is industrial ground on the west side of the city, and this address sits in it, out along Yale Road beyond the downtown. Chilliwack West as a whole is the odd one out among the city's neighborhoods: barely 2,500 residents in cul-de-sacs and small subdivisions up the side of Chilliwack Mountain, and yet two of the busiest commercial areas in the city are inside it. Both are there for the highway rather than for the neighbors, Eagle Landing at the interchange being the obvious one. A dealer on land like this is selling to people who set out to come, which is a different proposition from a lot on a shopping strip.

What the listing does not carry is a phone number or a website, which for a dealership is a gap worth noting rather than reading anything into. Directory records lag; a business can have both and simply not have them recorded here. The postal code and the street number will put a map on the right part of Yale Road, and anyone wanting to know what is actually on the floor before driving out will have to find the contact details elsewhere or turn up in person. For a purchase of this size, turning up in person was probably the plan anyway.
