GM says dealers will have to make do with their current 2005-model inventories because the automaker is not taking any more orders.

By the end of June, GM had just a 48-day supply of cars and trucks, according to the Automotive News Data Center, down sharply from 73 days on June 1.

By contrast, Ford Motor had an 80-day supply on July 1, while the Chrysler group had a 75-day supply. Industrywide, a 60-day supply is considered healthy.

Some GM dealers say they will unload their 2005 inventory well before the summer blowout sale ends.
