Sounds like you need to go to different dealers. I'm no fan of the dealer experience but I have gotten prices and costs online and certainly never had a dealer try to tack on $6K. Maybe it was some particularly in-demand model. At least one dealer I've bought a car from has been "no haggle"; the price on the sticker was the price.

The problem with getting rid of dealers is that most people will still want somewhere to test drive, someone local to handle paperwork, and there would need to be a service network in any case. Tesla will still have dealers. They'll just be owned by the company. And the experience will doubtless be comparable to existing high-end car dealers.
