Auto dealers in Missouri attempt to block Tesla sales

[crazycory65]

I'm from Missouri and I just got off work and seen a Telsa drive past me :v:

Also, shouldn't they also ban the Nissan Leaf then? I've seen like, 10 in my town alone.

The issue the auto dealers have isn't with the cars being electric - it's with Tesla bypassing auto dealers and selling directly to the customer. It really isn't that hard to read the OP.

Anything with the name Tesla that is remotely a good and beneficial idea gets screwed over and ran out of town. Gotta love our great nation...

Took me a minute to remember where that came from. :v:

Anyway, several states have blocked Tesla sales for some time already, its disgusting how more states are considering it as well.[/QUOTE]

It's actually originally a quote from Gandhi if I'm not mistaken.

Elon Musk buys the entire state of Missouri, and renames it Teslania.
