Now, suppose the factory is in MI and you are in LA. How much is it going to cost to ship the vehicle, one at a time, rather than in a big bunch on a truck? What about test drives? Defects? Scratches? What if the car shows up in wrong configuration? What if the car shows up with 500 miles on it?

If you still want to buy from a stealership, you can. Just give the rest of us the option. Sometimes I think a plane ticket to Michigan and the cost of hotels would end up being cheaper than buying a car from a stealership.

Not sure I want to go through those potential hassles and take money away from fellow locals that need jobs. A car is a big purchase. Helping a salesman with some commission is just part of the deal.

Locals who need jobs to take advantage of you? I’ll play a violin for them.

Also the stealership mechanics who always “find” something wrong with your car when you bring it in for something else

You do have options, clown. There are used lots on every corner and online shopping by the 100s. There are auctions and private buying and selling as well. But again, who would support your cheap ads? Would you buy from factory and drive back to Michigan to have a warranty repair done?

Please give me a list of essential products that you have bought directly from the manufacturer and have zero local support
Phone? A/C? Refrigerator? Computer maybe?

Let me help you, you have ZERO highly complex necessities bought from a factory.....NONE
