The Finer Points Of A Motor Vehicle Dealer Bond

By Kimberly Graham


The thing about people is that human beings are endurance hunters. Unlike other animals who ambush or overpower their prey, human being will chase down their prey until the animal is too tired to keep running, and then the animal is easy pickings. But then humanity decided that the legs could be improved upon, so it invented vehicles, and then it invented engines and put the two together. Nowadays, to peddle such wares, one needs a motor vehicle dealer bond.

Four wheels. An engine. A body with some seats on the inside. Those four things help make up a motor vehicle.

Now, there is a reason that people need such vehicles. In the olden days, human settlements were small. People rarely ever lived more than a mile or so away from their place of work. Sometimes, they even worked from home, living in their shops, taverns, or farms. But the modern city is so sprawling and densely packed that being within walking distance of a job can be a luxury in and of itself. So, people drive their cars so as not to be late for work.

A dealer is someone who sells. They are the people who have merchandise, set up a shop or a dealership, the put their merchandise on display, and then they wait. Some of then will even advertise with fliers and commercials.

Car manufacturers are too busy developing and selling new cars to worry about used products. They simply do not have the inclination to sell a used car. An independent dealership might, which is why there are used car dealers. Someone needs to sell the pre owned vehicles, if the manufacturers will not do it, then a savvy person must take it into their own hands to serve that market.

Many people will have a slush fund for emergencies. Some money tucked away, perhaps stuffed into a piggy bank or a jar. Insurance is kind of like that. Except that multiple people can put money into it and it cannot be taken out unless it is an emergency, which means that breaking the bank to go shopping is not an option.

Now, there is a very good reason that people need to have insurance, and that is control. Humanity likes to believe that it exerts control over the natural world. To a certain extent it does, but that control on goes so far. It should also be noted that getting a proper bond is a requirement for a potential dealer, otherwise they may not be permitted to open a dealership.

A lot of insurance providers will offer a bond of some sort. The trick, then, is not how finding out where to get one, but who to get one from. A would be merchant would do well to shop around, to find the best possible deal. This is because the bond costs money, and a lot of it, and that kind of cost can eat into the profit margins.

The thing about life is that there are so many ways in which it can be lived. There are so many ways to be in control. But, that control comes with consequences, and having a cushion against those consequences can be a blessing when the skies darken.
