Car dealerships and government protection.

Recommended Posts

10% of US states do not allow vehicle manufacturers to sell directly to customers, insisting they use a dealership system to increase prices and lower quality of service.

The latest of these states had the bill put into play by someone who, surprise, owns car dealerships.

If I can go the rest of my life without buying through a franchise dealership, my life will be better for it. Hopefully Tesla has a smaller model out by the time I'm ready for my next new car.
