For me, the last time I was in the market for a replacement vehicle, the 2 biggest factors were availability and price.

The dealers had zero stock (except maybe a rare fully optioned ridiculously priced example of the top of the line model), and I was not in a position to wait 2+ months for a factory order of a car that I couldn't even test drive.
