Ford can start selling their cars online if they think they can do better. Problem solved.
Of course the reason why they don't already do this is because they have done the math and concluded that dealerships actually earn them money.
Dealerships aren't quaking in their boots.
Is he insinuating that dealers are all illegally conspiring by the way? There must be at least a dozen Ford dealers in a 100 kilometre radius of your house they aren't rare. Find the cheapest one.
- clintonb 4y agoSome states prevent manufacturers from selling directly to consumers.
- t3rabytes 4y agoDealer franchise agreements with the manufacturer also frequently include provisions that prevent the manufacturers from selling direct to consumer IIRC.

The purchase still goes through a dealership. https://www.kbb.com/car-news/the-future-of-car-shopping-fewer-dealerships-national-chains/ https://www.kbb.com/car-news/the-future-of-car-shopping-fewe...
