A quote from the article: "Tesla may not yet recognize the value of the independent, franchised dealer system, but as its sales increase, NADA is confident it will re-examine its business model," Montana dealer and NADA Chairman Bill Underriner said in the statement. "Other companies such as Daewoo did. All companies should be complying with existing laws in the same way dealers are required to."<p>I hate to rain on your parade, but if "the value of the independent, franchised dealer system" is so self-evident, there would be no need for a law forcing people to use it and punishing non-compliance.
