Synopsis

Preface:

Texas independent used-motor-vehicle dealer operations, including licensing, inventory, retail sales, titles, metal plates, webDEALER, tax, dealer-arranged sales finance, privacy, fraud controls, and examinations. Excludes franchise law, manufacturer/distributor disputes, commercial truck finance, full salvage-business operations, and individualized consumer litigation.

Each chapter is organized around a distinct control point. Read the legal baseline first, then apply the workflow, retain the listed records, and use the failure controls as stop-work rules. The source map at the end of each chapter identifies the authorities that should be rechecked before a high-risk decision.

Update protocol: verify the cited law and current agency page whenever a deadline, fee, form, portal field, or licensing requirement will affect an actual transaction.
