    I bought one five months ago, and finally they were able to source one but they had to do a dealer trade. I never even got to see the combination of options I wanted in person in advance because supply for that car was so limited.

    It’s just not as profitable a vehicle to sell compared to those big trucks. And even then, sales are way behind their RAV4.
