Redirect to Larry H. Miller#Car dealerships due to WP:NCORP violations.
Keep as it easily meets WP:NCORP and WP:GNG (the latter meaning it doesn't even need NCORP). The company has had many articles written about it in multiple reliable sources. That said, an eye needs to be kept on the article due to the significant editing by people obviously connected to the company. The reason for my "significant" contributions is various attempts at keeping the wording neutral and removing content not good for an entry here. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 16:30, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
