At this time, Ford is trying to reduce the number of dealerships. Especially in larger cities with multiple dealers. They would like to combine them, if they could.
You could call Ford and make an inquiry, as to the requirements needed to open a dealership. You will need to have a large cash reserve and a certain net worth into the millions not including your personal residence to qualify. Ford will also determine if a dealership in your area is needed, and they will want to approve the location.
That's just some of the things that are needed. Good luck to you, hope you make it.
