I can't stand working with car dealers, they lie, cheat and steal. It's crazy that you can go to multiple dealership for the same and get totally different prices for the same vehicle. THAT'S A HUGE PROBLEM!
-
This smells like the manufacturer sets fixed prices for more favourable returns
-
They brought it on themselves with the insane price gouging markups. (If they actually do this)
-
Auto dealers are crooks the one thing I hate doing is buying a car
-
They are wowed because they can’t believe the price being asked for the vehicle. So states that does not allow direct auto sales will have none of the vehicles? Dealerships are not worried because abuse they will just keep saying at high prices and screw customers.
-
Another way to strip more money from the car buyer? Money for the car and money for the service? Better the makers just regain control of dealerships. Or, is it just more smoke and mirrors?
-
Has the editor been brought up on the early days of PowerPoint presentations? whoosh, whoosh.
-
Electric vehicles are garbage never buy it and never buy a car with a small Engine and a turbo

I think it's a bad idea. They still need sales outlets, but they need to be corporate-owned and run. No markups, no haggling, everything sells at MSRP. And the service department would no longer be looked at as a sales department; no commissions, no upselling, people just get the service they actually need
-
They get into a vehicle and get wowd, yea, it's the high price Mary Barra. I think it's little too late to bypass dealerships. Their unfair markups was going on for sometime and the OEM's ignored it. Good luck with that.
-
Dealerships take advantage of owners via service departments. They promote unnecessary services like wheel alignments at every opportunity. But how will actually necessary services be delivered otherwise?
-
Car and truck prices insane.
-
Ok how do you test drive a vehicle then? You order a truck or car and get it and then don’t like the way it drives or feel then what? I know without the dealership middle man price add on is not there. So it might lower the price but not by that much. Also now you’re removing jobs by deleting the dealerships. Mechanics, salespeople, maintenance people for the buildings even the people who wash the vehicles. Less people working less money to buy what your selling. I don’t like dealing with dealerships by there is some options that I like to do before I make an investment into something.

STEALERSHIPS SUCK with their price gouging crap . Nobody like dealing with employees thievery .
-
Interesting video. But the constant transition sound effect was distracting and irritating.
-
No desire to buy a ev
-
Where are you going to go for car repairs and get genuine car parts
-
crazy smart dealers are greedy!!!!
-
No thanks this sounds terrible

the 'innovative technologies' part is a huge red flag for me. Plus... more jobs lost forever, replaced by AI and robotization. I think in the end this will be their undoing. Customers think AI and digitalizing everything is the best thing since sliced bread and demand it... I disagree. I think it would be far better to regulate dealerships so that price gouging can't happen. How can someone buy a car online, sight unseen and never drive it? We're losing the human touch; how bizarre. Anything decided by 'corporate' is for one aim: more profits - for the CEOs. If this narrator uses the word "seamless" one more time I think I might be ill.
