When you read Thor's annual report to the SEC and stock holders the picture portrayed is Thor manufactures to dealer orders and they do not flood the dealers with new inventory.
Now, I imagine the dealers have agreed to a minimum number of units sold and they may be locked into that number or face loosing license to sell Thor products. This is similar to what happens in the automobile industry.
