http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/131...Automakers.html I once read that the American car companies don't consider the person who buys the car from the dealership to be their customer. That they consider the dealership to be their customer. This article doesn't necessarily support that premise but has some interesting statistics anyway: "GM, which through November had a market share of 26 percent, had 7,384 dealers as of Nov. 30, spokeswoman Susan Garontakos said. Toyota Motor Corp., with a market share of 13.3 percent, has about 1,400 dealers, spokesman Xavier Dominicis said."
Now you know why I am trying to becoming a Toyota dealer! $$$$$$$$$$$$ Lexus is an absolute cash cow !$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
