US Classification:

705/010000

Abstract:

A market for used vehicles is identified for a particular vehicle category. A group of dealers are selected who have a high likelihood of buying units of the products. To identify a market, inventory data is collected from each of a group of dealers within a region on a recurring basis. A dealer profile specifying the business rules for managing the inventory is obtained or produced for each dealer. A supply of products is determined by collecting inventory data from suppliers, such as automobile leasing companies and dealers with surplus inventory. The demand for products is determined by comparison of the dealer profile for each vehicle category to the actual inventory for the corresponding vehicle category and/or to the sales history for the product. The data for each product unit is expanded by reference to third party data bases by use of the vehicle identification number. The data thus collected and produced is aggregated for all of the dealers such that there is a composite representation of the demand for each vehicle category. For each vehicle category having a substantive supply and demand, a market is identified. Participants for this market are those dealers who have a significant demand for the products in the market category. The dealers are invited to a market which is called for the particular vehicle category. Multiple vehicle categories may be combined in one market. As a result, a highly efficient market is organized that is directed to one or more specific vehicle categories that are of high interest to a specified group of dealers and suppliers.

International Classification:

B25B 13/50
B25B 27/00

Abstract:

A special tool that can engage and manipulate a Jeep mounting screw commonly known as “Jeep Wrangler Hardtop Freedom Top Targa Mounting Knob Screw” Embodiments may include a handle that can contain indentations or ribs totally or partially extending its length for better grip. The handle abuts a flat head. A pair of screw engagement members are mounted on the flat head, separated, and spaced apart a pre-determined distance. The center region between the engagement members can be part of the flat head. Each engagement member is arc-shaped, or semi-circular in cross-section to fit into the knob screw head. The two engagement members are typically mounted in opposition and each extends approximately ⅓ the circumference of the head. This arrangement allows perfect engagement with the Jeep mount screw.
