[QUOTE="melvimbe, post: 1813134, member: 35314"] Literally? So if you're thinking about buying into a restaurant franchise, make it a ******* and not Applebees. No body is leaving ******* to go to Applebees I don't think it's that simple. Tesla is making sedans and small SUVs, which is not exactly what people want. They are getting a good reputation, but don't have the longevity that Ford, GM, and others have of being in the business for decades. And despite complaints about dealerships, it's good advertising, and people like that they can go talk to a human about the vehicle they want and maybe even drive it home that night. I would honestly say that lack of supply is a bigger problem than ADM. Dealerships can only charge ADM when supply is low. Even if there was no inventory on the lot, if any customer can work with any dealer to get his vehicle (no allocations to worry about), then there will be no ADM. ADM is just the product of supply and demand. Heck there have been guys on here who managed to get a Raptor at MSRP, and turned around and sold it for a 10k profit. There may still be an issue with overpricing if people want to pay to move up in the line or that sort of thing, but that would be a separate issue, and wouldn't impact everyone else's price.
