The independent dealer channel is on the precipice of a seismic shift, and we examine how the channel is shifting, the trends driving these changes, and what the future may look like for those dealers who remain. Our Editor-in-Chief Scott Cullen has done a tremendous job deciphering what’s taking place and what’s next, and I encourage our subscribers to read our cover story.
