Dealer issues !!! Why not make a section about it?

Just an idea that popped into my head but why not have a section the is strictly about dealer issues? Im not saying a section where everyone and there mother can bad mouth AKA stealership but a serious section to talk about the good and the bad. Ive been turned off of a few dealers due to opinions and something like this would be great research for buying new bikes and parts. I would love to post threads where I have been screwed over and other threads where the dealer really went out on a limb for me. Besides if the dealerships caught wind of this they would try their damnness to hook people up with out bending them over or else risk bad reviews, not to mention good reviews would equal more business. Kinda like how Ebay Sellers get reviews. Just a thought I had dont mind me.

Not at all but there is a lot of dealer bashing and not enough dealer good say. I know there is a section like this but you would need to use the search to find the dealer and thats a needle in a haystack. Maybe a section separated by States. And my real reason for the idea was due to me looking for a new bike and I completely disregarded this one dealer because I have heard nothing but bad about them selling bikes 3k over msrp and then some yet I shopped them last and got a mint bike for only 500 over msrp and it had 1500.00 in options on it. Due to me listening to others bad mouthing I almost bought a basic model for more than I got my bike for. Reviews are good!

Good idea, if there is anything a salesman hates it's an informed customer.
