Based on that article, Ford would have to pull all their franchise licenses. That would kill the service side of the industry too. I'm not arguing, just thinking out loud...via text. I highly doubt anyone would allow that to happen. Government would step in (right or wrong) to stop the unemployment that would surge, not to mention the tax dollars lost. What I think would happen is that it would be more likely that you'd order your vehicle, instead of tons of vehicles sitting on the lots waiting to be purchased. The dealer would still get their cut for having the vehicle ordered and delivered to them, and (potentially) the service that comes with the new vehicle. That would be an easier sell than eliminating dealers. That would require a change to federal law.
