<p>[QUOTE=&quot;isaiah58, post: 1898494, member: 29459&quot;]It looks like a couple of dealers have lowered their ASE premiums a tad. I am guessing that it has more to do with keeping their supply chain open that anything else. Can the main distributors of ASE&#039;s restrict deliveries only allowing their dealers to have a maximum amount of ASE&#039;s on hand? If they can, then any smart dealer would find creative ways to keep their inventory turning over. Once an allocation is cut you risk your supplier finding other resources, not being able to increase your supply when things pick up. That happened to us a few years ago when Prius sales on the east coast were lagging. Toyota moved allocation to the west coast. As the market opened back up, it took a while for allocations to balance. The east coast still has a lower percentage than before even though sales are better than before the re-alignment.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course it might be another reason, but has to be related to sales volume.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
