It's a shame, but some did have to go. I dodn't agree with all that did, because there is a non-5 Star dealer near me that got to stay open. They lost their 5 star status years ago and never got it back.
There are also many that only sell one of the 3 brands. I think this is going to change as well. My dealer is in the top 100 in the nation in sales of cars and parts and is only a Dodge dealership. They will soon be getting Chrysler and Jeep from a dealer that is closing that sold those two brands, but no Dodge.
I'm just glad that my dealer was spared. It is about 1/2 away vs the non 5 star dealer that is only 5 min. away. Last time I was there for a free oil change on another vehicle, they still had a brand new 2007 MegaCab truck that they had never sold.
