~28:00, mentions how his nissan leaf, 90k kms, no maintaince at dealership, so how does dealership survive without re-curring maintenance income.,
tesla, lucid? , rivian are doing direct online sales only??, but can they scale to where they have to have dealershiups (some states in usa prevent direct sales, must have dealships;
