- qbrass 4y agoGM and Ford have been trying to shed their dealer networks for the better part of a century, but even in Michigan, dealerships have more lobbying power than they do. They're obviously not going to stand for Tesla doing what they're banned from doing. Even if they'd rather be doing it themselves.
