No, the issue is that Tesla doesn't use dealerships at all, they sell direct to consumers.
It's illegal in many states for a car manufacturer to sell direct, because they have a supposed unfair advantage over dealerships.
The dealerships bribe their legislators -- oh, did I say that out loud? I meant donate to campaigns -- and the legislatures pass laws like this.
