I would like to know if GM will reimburse the dealer body for the lost SLP service. After all, if you remember, the dealers were "charged" and we all continue to "pay" for SLP even though it has been turned off. GM owes each and every dealer.
Reminder:
The last stock order discount was taken away as a payment for SLP. GM saved millions in stock order allowance paid to dealers. These millions supposedly went to pay for the overnight freight. So the last several months we have not received any stock order allowance AND they took the freight away.
Then today I watched a 60 second video stating GM is concerned about dealer profitability. I hope they put some effort toward this and also some effort to simply get out and stay out of our business. For years dealers were profitable and got along fine without all this intrusive assistance. Don't get me wrong GM should, can and must provide dealers assistance. But in years past we asked for it and received it. Now we seem to get more than we want - and what we receive is not what we need.
