Too much inventory

AUTOMAKERS HAVE TOO MUCH INVENTORY
Looks like we’re headed for blow-out sales of new cars in the American market. Automakers have too much inventory on hand. There are 4.1 million vehicles sitting on dealer’s lots, in rail yards and in transit. Last year at this time automakers had 66 days of inventory, now it’s 77 days. The problem is that sales are slowing down, but assembly lines keep on humming. And that’s especially true of passenger cars. For example, the Fiat 500 has 172 days of inventory. The Ford Fiesta has 104. The Buick Regal sits at 214 days, the Hyundai Azera 151 and the Toyota 86 has 135 days of supply.
Does anyone have a source of 'days of inventory' for our favorite rides?
Thanks,

Reuters report on used car market
Let's make a deal: Automakers, U.S. auctions align to prop up used car prices | Reuters
Says in U.S. that lots of used sedans coming off lease. So this is managed closely by auto manufacturers. Some things going on include lots of trucks on the highways moving used vehicles around to the best markets, etc. to try to maximize used car values/profits and protect the new car market. Holding some used cars off used market longer to control supply. etc. -
Can the height the hatch opens be controlled?
I got my new Prius Prime home and opened the hatch in the garage and it touched the door!!! I looked in the manual and googled it, but is there anyway anyone knows of controlling how high the hatch opens?
Thanks!
