Yes, I agree that the law is a shoddy law but that shouldn't allow Tesla to sell directly. Would small car manufacturers get special rules too? Laws are laws.

Laws are laws. Either change the law or enforce it. That's fair. Not cronyism.
- jack-r-abbit 13y agoI think that is the point. Change the law. Ford, Chevy, etc may not want to go the "dealer not required" route and continue to use dealers. But at least there would be options.
- andyl 13y agoThe original intent of the law was not to prohibit manufacturers from selling direct. The intent was to prevent manufacturers from competing against their own dealerships. Tesla has no dealerships.
- coldpie 13y agoI'm baffled. Who is arguing for Tesla to get special rules? They're simply not going to sell in markets that don't allow them to sell how they want to.
