Actually, Saturn failed due to other issues... like GM not giving a **** about the real mission behind Saturn. Eventually the cars were just...

Dealers being successful and doing invoice deals is only a situation that exists because it's the norm. They've found other ways to make up the...

Ideally, I'd like to see franchised dealers go away as well. Straight-to-consumer purchasing. Get rid of the middle man, control dealership...
