It's not that they literally would not be capable in a logistical sense. It's that they would probably do a worse job of it than the independent dealers would. At least with independent dealers there's a lot of oversight; the people that own dealerships generally own a few, the biggest players maybe a few dozen.

Right now dealers aren't that great, they're the Mom & Pop bookstores. Having Ford sell directly would give us a Barnes & Noble experience. I personally think that might be worse.

I dislike dealers for sure and prefer to work on my car myself. I have the feeling I would dislike them even more if they were all run by Ford.
