Aside from a refundable $500 deposit, no money changes hands until the car is delivered to the customer. The car isn't counted as sold until delivery.
so your saying that where you worked if 6 people came in in 1 month and wanted 6 brand new prius vehicles, you would have all 6 right then and there(which isnt likely) and if not, your dealership wouldnt count those 6 deposits as sales for 6 months, therefore you not making the commission on those "sales" for 6 months? and your also saying that NOONE comes in and pays for a new car fully that is on back order for 6 months and that you dont count that as a sale if it were possible. how long did you work for toyota? because you obviously didnt sell any thing
