We always treated it as a customer for p and l purposes. The only difference was we set an internal labor and parts rate at lower margins. This makes sales, rentals etc look at the cost involved when they "request" work as well as keeps the department doing the work from appearing unproductive on paper. It is simply money from one pocket to another but to manage the dealership properly it must be done.

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
