But Tesla is changing it. They are going direct in a few states now, and are pushing to broaden that into other markets.

When people see what Tesla offers as far as maintenance and convenience, they will see the difference between that, and a free bottle of water and some cookies. Dealerships (most of them) bring minimal value to a car purchase. There are good ones out there, but most are not.
