The list
AI-Ready Verified dealerships first, then every other dealership AI named. Inside each group, the order is how many of the 15 answers named it. Verified means a confirmed dealer licence, live inventory and lender rates on file, which any dealership can do. Nothing here is bought, and nothing here is a rating.
