This is to preserve some profitability to the Dealerships.
IIRC, the base Unit costs about $4k with annual Software upgrades running another $1-$2K and you must pay these fees because the Software contains a Cinderella program which makes it inoperative after a year's use. The Dealerships pay $10k upfront with annual fees of $4k. If Cost = Capabilities, it appears the Dealerships can do waay more with theirs than you'll be able to do with yours. Hope this helps...
