Livingston County is clearly significantly underserved by new vehicle franchised dealers. The primary US automakers existing represent Ford, Chevrolet-Olds, Cadillac, GMC, Pontiac-Buick, and Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge.
The only import dealers in the entire County are Honda and a recently added Suzuki store. Absent are: Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, Volkswagen, Kia, Acura, Volvo, Lexus, Audi, Hummer, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Hyundai, Land Rover, Mitsubishi. There is also a lack of medium to heavy truck dealers, in spite of Livingston County's aggressive growth and strategic location to all central markets via I-96 and US 23.
