It really does vary just like you said.It depends completely on the dealers internal system that dictates that time. For example.A dealer in Seattle has put us above all other departments, and everyone knows it. So when the photo guy comes by and says he needs this car and that car, they give him the car. That is Detail/techs/sales, everyone. Now if a vehicle is on a rack getting it's inspection. It will be put at the back of the line and as soon as that inspection is done, (If dirty) detail will do a quick clean, wash/vacuum/tire dressing and it is to be shot. That dealer on average has its vehicles up in 1-2 days from trade in or delivery. But this is only because the G.M. has conveyed to all departments the importance of getting these cars online. This store we visit 4-5 days a week.A different dealer we have sells the same number of units, has 2 more detail guys and the average is 15-30 days. They just do not convey to others and do not enforce the mindset of "Pictures bring more customers in". So tech's and service advisers do not release vehicles, customer details get over booked so lot cars can not be detailed quickly and Detail guys will not stop what they are doing to quick clean a vehicle. This store we visit 2-3 days a week. If we were not bottle necked by the internal system we would go more.Now the later store mentioned will have about 30% of the vehicles shot and online within 7 days but for the most part you are looking at double digits.
