People put down deposits for every electric truck in development, leaving dealers in the lurch when they eventually cancel all but one::When an electric truck customer doesn’t show up to pick up their order, dealer are left with a car that might be hard to sell to someone else.

    You should, I posted a video in my other comment that shows how manufacturers are actually fucking the dealers and they have no way to fight back

      Good.

      Stealerships have been raping and pillaging for years. The sooner they go the way of buggy whip makers the better.

      And before you ask: Direct purchase from manufacturers and licensed service centers is a much better model, if we can’t have that then manufacturer direct service.

        Amen, burn the stealership model, I bought my tesla without any bs and I’m happier than if I had to go through a dealer for everything, I doubt I’ll be willing to go through one again.
