Anyone know why Tesla is trying to intricately jump through all these hoops rather than just, you know, use dealerships themselves like Ford does? I think Elon just thinks the idea of independent dealerships is too much of an anchor and thinks he can force a change in the law. Let's see how he does. This has been something that every auto manufacturer selling to the US market has tried to get overturned for the past 100 years, so I'm not holding my breath that he will find much success unless he gets some serious allies from Detroit to stand by his side in Washington.
