My local Lincoln-Mercury dealer also sells Kia. Maybe I could get the Lincoln-Mercury experience at Kia prices too

I agree -- why should people have to go to 2 dealerships to see what are effectively different trim levels? They don't have to at Toyota or Honda. This artifically-enforced brand hierarchy at Ford/GM is part of the problem why their mass-market brands (Ford and Chevrolet) can't compete effectively against the Toyotas and Hondas of the world.
