Maybe some rejigging of numbers there as previous deposits shifting towards newer cars despite not getting the original one requested? This is what has happened to a mate of mine.
Got a next-gen ranger towards the end of last year and its no surprise its leading the game. With all its fancy tech, its 1 step away from being completely self driving. With its lane departure corrections, and its vehicle speed monitoring (including coming to a complete stop - not turning off at 40kmh) You just point it in the right direction and relax. Keeping a finger tip on the wheel so it feels some feedback. It can parallel park itself already. It just works.
It's closer to two years for a 70 series Toyota. Some folk are putting them on the market just before the delivery date and making a tidy profit.
I reckon I could sell mine for at least what I paid for it five years ago.
