We anticipate a continuation of the robust demand and sales volumes into 2022 with our existing and new products, which are backed up by the industry accolades across our brand portfolio, including the Grand Wagoneer, Wagoneer, Ram 1500, and the new Jeep® Grand Cherokee (WL).”

WOW that is incredible. I guess inventory zero worked out... I talked a guy who owns a Ford dealer... said the business model isn't horrible, you get good margins, you don't have money tied up in inventory.

Could someone tell me how models going back to a 2017 production date being sold as 'new' on the annual sales report? Were they mules or EPA stat vehicles for a few years?

Man, this supply constraints really did a number on sales.
All those old models being sold as new are crazy. The Giulia really needs a refresh and new engines.
Chrysler and Dodge are holding amazingly. That to me is an indicator they have a very big chance of increasing sales if they would just get new models. It's not like they have much space to increase Jeep's range anymore. Ram could use a mid-size pick-up to compete against the Maverick.
