Chevy Dealership WTF You Thinking $94k Why?

In this video, we are going to walk around a Chevy dealership and we saw a ZR two that has been on a lot 321 days according to carredge.com and it has an additional $15,000 add-on package which probably has to do with why it’s been sitting. We’re also gonna look at the Tahoe traverses and then go into the EV situation with General Motors. 

[@rickbart9957]

I would not even think about buying a new car nowadays. Such a rip off. Ill stick to older cash cars and deal with repairs and upkeep.

[@rickybobby421]

Much cheaper in the long run. Wise choice. I’m doing the same.

[@artfquinn]

Eventually people have to buy newer used cars with CVT transmission which generally last only 100,000 miles. Car makes switch from auto transmission to CVT transmission so people have to buy a car every 100K or 10 year. They don't want cars last forever.

[@axxxingforanswers4648]

Here in PA we have a bus system, even in most rural areas. That's my plan. Call them they come right to the door for seniors over 65 ( call ahead to arrange). 75 cents. Doctor appt, hospital for tests, Walmart, Aldi, Tops, Shurfine, banks, etc. That's my plan. Usually called "Transit Authority of _________County". You may have to arrange ahead, but we can do that! Screw these dealers.

There are many that will, so they can have a new car to show off. For comparison, if you notice, how many people buy the new Apple product when it is released.

I have no pity for dealerships. They took advantage of people from 2020-2023 and didn't blink twice. You didn't want to pay the market adjustment, too bad. They showed you the door. Now the buyers are showing them the door.

I don’t get the business logic behind dealers adding lift kits & wheel packages and expecting someone to pay $20,30k above MSRP. The truck at $70k is already expensive but expecting someone pay 90 something for it knowing that a tuner shop can get it done for way cheaper is a foolish business strategy.

For that white pick up the add one are 2 to 3 times more than what they are worth. Parts department buys the parts sells them to service, service installed them and then sells them to the sales team then the sales teams sells them to you. All with a mark up. The sales person tries to sell you on the with all these wonderful add ons it's only pennies a month increase. You will never really see the difference. It's a sales tactic. It's corporate greed on all oems. Buy a stock truck save the money and install what you want when you want you will be dollars ahead of the game. .

The main car manufacturers have belatedly woken up to the 'luxury handbag' market. Make your product in the same factory as the econo handbag, with the same quality but, just jack the price, someone, if not many will desire that product. Not sure what Jeep is thinking, but bankruptcy might be one thought, which is a good thing for absolute rubbish.
