I also thought their focus was merging smaller dealers into larger ones as opposed to outright closing them all?  |
If nothing else, closing a bunch of dealerships would inherently drive the price to the buyer UP towards MSRP. Dealers don't give us deals because they want to, they give us deals because of competition. Problem with the whole thing is it doesn't make GM any more money doing it. It makes the dealers more profitable but not GM.
