But you are the one personalizing it, you are the one who was denied a test drive and got upset. Read back over your first post.

Nobody here has suggested that your dealer is one they want to do business with. Some of us appear to think you may be misdirecting your wrath. Several of us have pointed out that you are mad at the dealer, but you continue to drag Cadillac through the mud. Your dealer didn't ask for a bailout, GM did. They are separate entities. I don't condone your dealer's behaviours, and I would never deal with them.

Wagner got turned down for a test drive at a BMW dealer. I got turned down for a test drive at a Porsche dealer (I drove up in an X5, wearing a dark suit, I was planning to pay cash, and I asked for a test drive after two previous visits and discussions with the same sales rep. They said they had to drive it, I could be a passenger, on a predetermined course. I didn't buy a Porsche.) It isn't the manufacturer, it is the dealer.

Did you even ask the dealers why they have this policy? Might have been interesting to find out.
