It's been revealed, that General Motors has payed money to its dealers for 7 years already. All these years more than $5 billion were offered to GM dealerships, under the EBE program. But now, that most of them have done some shiny makeovers, there's no need to make some extra, right? GM has decided to keep that spigot open for any of its Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC dealers who jump though the necessary hoops under the brand standards program called Essential Brand Elements.
