Predict the number of 2014 Jeep Cherokees sold in November and Win!
Well it's been awhile since we've had a contest on DealershipForum that allowed our members to demonstrate their knowledge of the retail car market and win an award.
The challenge for this contest will be to predict the total number of 2014 Jeep Cherokees sold in the United States for the month of November, 2014.
(Retail sales plus Fleet sales)
In many ways the launch of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee is unique because the initial production vehicles were in containment for two months and then released to the dealers in one huge wave. By contrast, most new vehicle launches result in the dealers only receiving a trickle of new inventory while the assembly plant ramps up production.
Will the containment issue help or hinder the sales of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee in November? Time will tell....
I'm still working on the contest rules and the award details. I'll lock this thread for now and re-open it for participation once I've laid out the Contest Rules in post #2 and the Award Details in post #3.
