I also don't feel bad for dealers. Think about it. I go to the dealership, and I tell them exactly what they want. They don't make the car, they just buy it from GM, and resell it to me for ~$3000 markup once everything's said and done. Thats BS. There's no reason why I shouldn't be able to order a car online, directly from GM, for the same invoice price the dealer pays. Have it delivered to any old GM delaership to be PDI'd, which GM pays for anyway. Then I pick it up and drive away.
Thats why "supply and demand" is such bullshit for a car. It would be one thing if GM was selling them at a higher price to start with, to recoup R&D costs before lowing the price (kind of like apple did with the iPhone). They DESIGNED and they BUILT the car. But for dealerships to be buying these cars and reselling them for thousands more than the thousands they already make, for doing next to NOTHING. Thats BS. Thats not supply and demand, thats price gouging and it should be illegal.
