Working take
Product is strong (new X5). iX3 gets pages, not ad dollars — national is already heavy and early US production is sold out. Close the small CP parts miss ($200–400 under $7.4k/day). Watch slow V8 iron; keep a mix of X7 seat configs.

Inventory / product
Old-body X5 left: three six-cylinder + one V8 (V8 arrived ~30d via Bill supplemental — slow movers with X7 V8s).
New X3 gets ventilated seats (closes Rogue gap called out at Nashville).
iX3: few units this year while pre-orders clear; ~$55k entry vs Model 3 ~$42k / cheap leases.
X7 seats: bench folds flat + better family LATCH story; buckets pass-through myth; keep a few of each.
Service / CP
Customer-pay parts target $7,400/day — short ~$200–400 (not overbooked; next-day appointments OK).
CP = non-warranty; maintenance-plan usage counts CP but pays less than walk-in pay.
Loaner pressure on X5+ class; Bill suggested wholesale 7 Series loaners.
Mrs. Braswell: white/ivory unit — white steering wheel; call when it arrives.
ABR context (not BMWJ action)
Lance relayed Audi Baton Rouge differential-fluid pattern: warranty work only if customer complains; techs avoid weak flat-rate; used-car pays later. Policy/audit fear. Filed here as market note only.
