It's a change in business mentality. I call it the big box mentality. People are not as loyal to a brand or a dealer. Like many American businesses they act and manage for the short term. Some of it is more and more you're dealing with an employee that doesn't see a relationship between service and a pay check and probably won't be there more than 5 years or so. When you had mom & pop dealers your parts guy was apt to be family and had more stake in you leaving happy, today it doesn't really effect them. Also consider that the current government portrays people that are successful as evil and should be punished with confiscatory tax rates, don't be to surprised if they only want to deal with the easy and profitable sales, the law of diminishing returns will take effect. Even on some of the mom & pop businesses are going to decide not to work 70+ hours a week so they can be told they're unfair and need to be punished with higher tax rates and their business seized to pay death taxes, hey if you can't pass it to your kids why invest the blood sweat and tears?
