I share with you updates on car prices, what's happening at the dealer auctions, and what it's like being a dealer. My goal is to share information to help you make the best decisions while buying a car to save you money. I do not want car dealers taking advantage of you.

Dude, most people can barely afford a $7000 vehicle in this market, let alone a $70,000 vehicle. This is outrageous. The point of a good car company is to make cars affordable for people to buy so that people have transportation, not make luxury cars that only the elite can afford. Henry Ford made sure his cars were affordable so that the plant workers could buy them. I'm sure he'd have something awfully sharp to say to Ford nowadays if he were alive.

This is 100% the fault of the greedy corporations and the greedy executives of those corporations. In the 1960s, CEO pay was 20 times that of their average worker pay. Now they are making over 400 times that of their average worker pay. Since the 1970s, CEO pay has increased by more than 1200%, meanwhile the typical worker pay has only increased by about 18%. Maybe they should consider drastically cutting their CEOs and upper managements pay and benefits and cutting the prices of their crappy products. Their business model isn't sustainable long-term. They are expecting all of their workers to work for scraps and buy their overpriced products while the executives drink their workers blood, sweat and tears while laughing at their struggles that they contribute to.

Let alone the banks that lent to 150% LTV and the customers that bought them! Everyone involved are getting what they deserve for this silliness! The last vehicle my wife and I financed was her 2016 Grand Cherokee that we got used in 2017 for $25k @ 1.5apr and paid it off in 2020. I drive a 2008 Nissan Titan that I bought 5 years ago for $12k cash. I have never understood the high prices for new vehicles or how ridiculous buyers are for paying well over MSRP for anything! We will remain debt free by not buying what we don’t need, paying our credit cards off monthly and staying right in our home that is financed at 2.3% with 60% equity. I retired from my career in mid 2021 knowing that by staying debt free, the inflation rate hasn’t hurt my retirement income too badly. My score hovers around 820 and has for years.
