Is the Defender with a $10k discount loaded with the Trek package accessories?

No, it is just a regular SE. They do still have that Trek though...

Sounds like the supply is there in these two cases.
The number of vehicles in stock doesn't tell you anything about demand.

Thanks for your reply. The one with the 10k discount is the V8. V8's are not selling and they do not hold their value like the P400 and P300.

It does if the inventory isnt moving.
I've been watching their stock for 3 months and the defenders are just sitting.
Same with a third dealer that's right down the street.

Sadly, cash has no bargaining power nowadays - the dealer makes money on the loan they love you to take out with them.

They almost certainly don't, the website numbers include vehicles in transit and still in production and, if the dealer is part of a group as many are, the inventory is pooled and they all show and include each other's inventory . Case in point the dealer I bought from shows over 150 cars available, but only 33 appear to be actually in stock, and they are shared among the four dealers in that group and separated by around 300 miles distance.

These are both dealers ive followed closely for 3 months.
Most of the inventory is in stock and has barely changed in the 3 months I've been monitoring.
I've also visited another dealer 8 miles down the road who has a large amount of inventory itself.
Most of which were sitting there when I first visited.

These trucks arent flying off the lot like some people here are implying.
