I am not on car side. I am on finance side. However, I would think dealers get to order earlier, but not much. The Tacoma I ordered was the hybrid engine, so it was delayed. I was able to order on March 15, 2024. However, they only allotted 10 orders per month for us on the TRD Pro, so I did not place my order until May 16. it got to the dealer in early to mid november. They are also allowing the 2025 Lexus GX550 to be ordered on 12/16.
