There is without a doubt good and bad dealerships. I am with you though in that I think the good outnumber the bad by a huge factor.
Classic case of people talking about the bad and never mentioning the good so the impression is they are all bad.
There is also the whole "I am better than anybody else at everything" mentality at play with some. I laugh my ass off when I read some joker that asks how to change his oil because he refuses to have "the stealership monkeys" touch his car. I do not know about the US but up here all the techs that work on the cars (yes even for oil changes more often than not) are extensively trained and licensed. They have all of the latest and best equipment and know how to use it. Some 19 year old with a $20 set of jack stands and a cut rate socket set working in his driveway can not do a "better" job no matter how superior they may feel. This of course does not mean that there are not people that can do just as good a job but those are not usually the people slamming the dealers.
