two key things
1)Its a press release.... ie propoganda
It is not routed in reality, I can through a rock and nail a hand full of dealerships that havent hit 2006 annual numbers again. And in the Pacific NorthWet the numbers are on par with a bad WINTER rather than the height of summer. Damn shame reality doesnt seem to mesh with his analysis
2) Notice the world 'world' wide in there.... yep, they are probably already counting the 'Indian' experience as units that have 'shipped'.... but not have been SOLD, or even completely ASSEMBLED yet.

Advertising is the modern substitute for argument; its function is to make the worse appear the better. ~George Santayana

I thought that was public relations.
