True cost, not purchase price
Auction price, transport, safety, recon, keys, tires. Every dollar you put into a unit rides on the unit, so the day it sells you know what you actually made.
The lot, on one board. Updated by the deals.
Most small lots run inventory in a spreadsheet that is accurate for about four hours after somebody remembers to update it. Lot Jacket keeps the board current because the deals write to it — intake, recon, sale and delivery all land on the unit themselves.

Cost, age and status stay currentLedger linked
Three things a spreadsheet never gets right.
Age you can't ignore
Days on lot on every row, sorted the way a floor plan payment thinks. The sixty-day unit stops hiding behind the shiny one you bought last week.
Status that comes from the deal
Recon, front line, sold, delivering, delivered. You don't set it — the scanner, the bill of sale and the delivery confirmation set it as the deal moves.
Why it stays accurate
The board is a side effect.
Nobody maintains it. Every change comes from work you were already doing.
Spreadsheet inventory
- Someone has to remember to update it
- Cost is whatever was typed, minus the recon nobody added
- Two people edit it, one version wins
- Sold units linger for weeks
- The register is a separate job at month end
Lot Jacket inventory
- Intake scan creates the unit
- Every recon bill attaches to the unit's cost
- One board, everyone sees the same thing
- The bill of sale marks it sold
- The garage register writes itself alongside
