I have a bit of a counter-point Bill.
While I admit supply and demand will ultimately determine whether the dealer is successful in getting the $35,000 premium for a car, it does not take into account the opportunites lost due to the ill will created among coolwelder62 and others who feel the way he does when they see the premiums being charged.
While I doubt most of us would walk away from a purchase we wanted, anyone who did find the practice offensive may not buy from the dealer or may avoid the brand all together.
Just a thought. Its a free country and I personally have no problem with it.
