dealers V general public - mk124
Are main dealers any worse than the general public?

I say this because recently posts had pro or anti dealer 'feeling'. I have a two interconnected questions.

1. Why does many people hate dealers in their 'glass palaces'? the real question is why customers go to these 'glass palaces' anyway?

2. One thing I don't like is so called advertising. Simple things in life, like chosing toothpaste is a nightmare. - Go to your local supermarket now and read all the packets of toothpaste and they tell you little. If the machanics and the shareholder is not making money in the dealership business, who is? - could it be the sales staff, the manufacturer etc?

I go to my local indy, but then again I do have a P reg banger and my familiy has used this particular garage for over a decade.
