Default Toyota dealer volume rankings?

Can someone point me to a list of Toyota dealer volume rankings here in the US? Particularly in the Southeast if possible?

Thanks,
Scott

Car Soup shows Toyota Dealer volume ranked by State as well as District ( within which the dealership). This seems to be a pure number of units sold.

I browsed the car soup site. I don't see where it can pull up volume per dealer.. Actually, I would be very surprised if they had it since it is only accessible by other dealers... And I don't think Toyota is going to make that public info any time soon.

Why keep it a secret? So consumers can't use it as a bargaining chip?

Yes, that is exactly why.

Honestly, it's irrelevant to the consumer. If a dealer or sales person spouts off that they are the largest volume dealer in blah-blah region, it means nothing. The salesperson may wish to use it as negotiation to tell you he has the best deal because he is the largest.....but hay, that's negotiations

Aren't dealorships private enterprises? If I owned a franchise, I wouldn't want the franchisor to publicly report my sales. And I wounldn't sign a contract that let them do so.

I am a small business owner and am guarded about what information I release publicly. Since service quality is important, I would want to know how the store ranked in terms of customer satisfaction and other key indicators.

Good Points dbacksfan-- You know the DMV in Wisconny mines this info and send it to our dealership montly. The date includes VIN and address that the car was sold to. Name & phone numbers are with-held but this is how aftermarket warranty companies find you and call to sell you another warranty.

Ahhh, I find that a bit alarming, to say the least. But thanks for sharing.
