From a market perspective, this is an important signal. Rather than a flashy new venture, reinforcing the existing dealer base — a modest but solid strategy is starting to earn investor recognition. What the numbers show is the reality that rebuilding brand trust takes time. I see this step as cautiously positive.

Returning to physical stores sounds unglamorous, but rebuilding a dealer network is the part that takes the longest, so I get why it's being praised.

'First tailwind' means the reception must have been rough the whole time before this.

Wall Street reacting is a sign the turnaround is actually starting to show up in the numbers.
