Oklahoma Statutes
Title 47. Motor Vehicles Chapter 62A - Used Motor Vehicle and Parts Dealers
Section 581 - Definitions
19. a. "Used motor vehicle dealer" means any person who, for a commission or with intent to make a profit or gain of money or other thing of value, sells, brokers, exchanges, rents with option to purchase, or offers or attempts to negotiate a sale or exchange of an interest in used motor vehicles, or who is engaged wholly or in part in the business of selling used motor vehicles, whether or not such motor vehicles are owned by the person.

There are some exclusions found in the statute. But this probably fits into the category "if you asked you probably are".
