Example:
Country dealer gets allocation of 1 per month. because nobody else except person A buys from them. His order on 18th of june will be fulfilled in the next month, because the country dealer can request for his order to match the 1 car they are allocated.

OR

Scenario 2:
After the initial shipment, its first come first serve for dealers, and allocation is based purely on your place in the queue.

Example:
Country dealer puts order in on 18th of june for person A. this will not be fulfilled until September because there are 100 other orders before him for that spec. City dealer has 5 orders on the 17th of june of the same spec, he will get them all before the country dealer does?

Monty, would the next shipment of cars be completely matching the orders placed by dealers? I.e all ~250 cars will already have owners waiting for them. Or like above, Toyota just says we're gonna build 50/50 split, if you dealers have ones nobody wants then tough, wait till next month? Id assume the most efficient way would be build to order everything?
