From the data provided, we observe fluctuations in the total asset turnover ratio over the past five years. In 2019, the ratio was at its highest of 2.48, suggesting that for every dollar of assets, Asbury generated $2.48 in revenue.

The declining trend from 2019 to 2021 may indicate potential inefficiencies in asset utilization or changes in the company's business operations. The ratio's slight increase in 2023 could suggest some improvement in asset turnover compared to the previous year but is still below the 2019 levels.
