[USER=6165]@Jlewis74[/USER] I appreciate you bringing this issue up. It has go to be the biggest racket in our industry and I am floored that the NADA didn't, hasn't, and isn't doing anything to stop it. That's what a dealer association is for. This racketeering does nobody any good except drive revenue to these companies in an unfair way that ultimately costs dealers and their vendors valuable time and money. It's not even their data, it's the dealers' data!I agree that the best strategy to combatting this is switching DMS providers. While that might not be as simple and painless as you make it out to to be, so what! This is a choice dealers can and should be making out of sheer principle. If 75% of ReyRey and CDK dealers banned together to do this they could bring these companies to their knees (and bring a whole batch of other providers great successes).
