This has been brought up often, but the bottom line is, GM can't control the dealers ADM's (mark ups). The dealer is a customer of GM, they set their own prices. I suppose allocations could be used as a penalty, but obviously GM doesn't care much, they sure didn't learn with the GTO and we saw how that went.

I think supply and demand will eventually come back to reality. Dealers are asking what they can, but that doesn't mean you have to pay it. Find a dealer that is selling at MSRP, there are plenty. I've seen about a dozen on the road so far here in MN, various colors. They are growing on me.

You know what they say, a fool and his money are soon parted.

I would bet, the people who made this video are the ones that got left behind when GM owned Fuji Industries/Subaru......j/k
