My point exactly. They have carved out a specific niche and they are probably doing well. They are known as specialists

Market niche: created by identifying needs or wants that are not being addressed by competitors, and by offering products that satisfy them. I trust your judgement Autogeek family so please have patience while I explain my vision or lack thereof. I was a mechanic for about 10 years. I was...
