Succeeding as an independent tire dealer isn’t ever a “copy and paste” operation. What works for the dealer down the street isn’t necessarily going to work for you, and what works for you may not work for a dealer selling the same tires halfway across the world.

However, the EV looks as if it barely felt the impact and will probably return to the road soon. According to witnesses, one of the vehicles involved ran a red light and the Nissan Sentra ended up t-boning the Tesla Cybertruck.
