"If you’re looking for a great deal on a new SUV, stop by your local dealership and ask to see a 2020 model. There will probably be a pretty good selection of Ford SUVs. That’s because last year wreaked havoc on the auto industry during the nationwide shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic. Ford had a hard time moving its vehicles, and by year’s end, dealerships saw a surplus of SUVs on lots across the country...."

Inventories across the us auto industry are always high. They have such a huge market to sell to so inventories need to be high. But with production stoppages due to covid, and the semi conductor shortage, i can’t see how stock levels can be too high. When us auto sales are only down a few %. And the f series, explorer etc are still selling very well. I see the us sales reports every month.

Perhaps the desire for utes has impacted SUV sales more than anticipated.
