I remember posting a thread about a month or so ago about a Lincoln Mercury dealer in the Seattle area who said he accepted a buy-out from Ford. I thought he was just trying to put a positive "spin" on why he decided to close the store but now it sounds like it's true.

Maybe Ford wants to pare down their dealer network before the car business recovers and dealers are no longer willing to walk away?
