They dont sell Holden, they do sell Ford, Subaru, Suzuki and Isuzu.
Be careful, what’s happening or not happening in your area of the country
May or may not be indicative of what’s happening elsewhere in our country
So we need more data points like say, the east coast where nearly two thirds
of the population live.....

Having said that, there are indications of a big slowdown in retail sales
last month that was masked a bit by sales to govt fleets.

If the going does get harder it will be doubly so for carmakers still
pushing cars into a market they know has already slowed, those with
Low inventory will be least affected- if Holden can get theirs worked
down they may actually be in better shape than some of the brands
you mentioned
