That's pre-COVID thinking.

The manufacturers have now figured out by keeping inventory sitting on dealer lots artificially low, they can charge artificially high prices and increase profit on each unit.

Empty lots and higher prices are the new normal.


Got any source for that?


Dealers are benefiting on a unit basis, volume is killing manufacturers and dealers. Development is insanely expensive, costs won't be recovered without volume, future development funds will be curtailed to all our detriment.
