This May, sales of new vehicles are strong compared to last year. There's a lot of pent-up demand and some manufacturers are having a hard time keeping enough vehicles in stock.
Toyota and Honda have finally recovered from last year's earthquakes and are back to full production again, however they're not offering large incentives as many analysts had expected. With supplies tight, they're not having any problems selling what they produce right now, but things could change in two or three months.
Ford is the only major manufacturer that has increased incentives so far this year. They're offering large cash-back rebates on several popular models.
Lease deals are also back in full swing, with several vehicles available for as little as $200 per month. You'll also find many 0% financing deals, especially on GM vehicles.
(Note: incentives can vary greatly by region; these figures may not be accurate in your local area. Always verify with your local dealers)
