just thinking out loud, but wouldn't you agree that toyota blundered, by not having an inventory on hand (in-port) to put a bigger dent in the pending orders. i only ask this because many people are counting on the dec. 31, deadline for tax purposes.... they may buy elsewhere, if there is no chance of pre-new year's day delivery

even with an increased delivery charge

thanks

end of year on hand inventory

Logistics...........With only 1 plant manufacturing the Prius, it is very difficult to produce enough cars to meet current demand let alone to provide for an on hand inventory. Moreover, only 25% of all Prius manufactured at that plant (it's in Japan) are allotted to the US.
