Deliveries: orphans vs. reserved?

[JPaul]

Just one day short of one week ago, scAlexandria had sold 163 cars, 13 of them orphans. Mind asking your dealership what was the % in your neck of the woods?

I asked Allison at one point and she said that only about 4% of those she's allocated to handle become orphans.

Orlando as of today has sold 110 smarts.
40 of them have been orphans.

Universal City Smart gets 40 to 45 smarts per month. 30% are becoming Orphans.
Straight from the dealers mouth. Personally I think 40 smarts per month is dragging major ass and total bottle neck in the deliver process. Just my 2 cents.
