According to tracking by Urban Science, an automotive industry consulting company, average sales per dealership are expected to set a significant record this year. With 17,770 dealerships in the nation, sales per dealership is on track to reach 805 units per dealer this year. If that happens, it will top the previous record in 2005 of 784 units per store when there were over 20,000 dealerships.
