Sales are Sales... Sure, profit on Fleet (per vehicle) is probably less than a Private buyer, but when your selling 5/10/20/50 at a time that's not a huge deal. And keeps the company's Turnover up, not just the profit. Its why I never got why people are so hard on Toyota for being the "Fleet Leader". Is that really such a bad thing?
Main thing Ford wont get (from the Police at least) is that im pretty sure they service there own vehicles (they do in Qld at least)

A Wheel post that caught my attention this morning...............
Look at how close the YTD figures are between Commodore and Falcon, probably the closest they had been in the years before, and since. ![]()

Don't forget Commodore ute was included in Commodore's sales.

Did not know that, Holden/GM playing the system as they had always done.

Private sales can yo-yo when the economy isn't doing well. Fleet sales can do a bit of that too, but not to the same degree. |
