How can they actually try to tell people with a Q4 reservation that hey this kicks/venue is what you booked!!!

Also looks like there're tons of new mazda coming. CX-5 and CX-30 are everywhere now
From what I was told instead of buying more compact and subcompact cars they can use the same money to buy all those tiny "suv" and to free upgrade people or force customers to take them as Q4s.
From my observation, the kias that they buy are always some type of fleet only trim that does not exist in retail model and I never understand why bother to create a special fleet trim, and I believe that if they do get the palisade/telluride they will class them as T.
I understand the logic from a business standpoint but as a customer I don't like that.
