If you’re paying 90k for a truck that truck better last 50 years with no problems lol. But the sad truth is after 100k the transmission will go out. Emission problems which can be expensive to fix.

I like when you ask for a discount and they tell you they cannot discount it because it is priced the same as all the others in the area. Yup that just means since all these trucks in the area are just still sitting there like ducks it is for a reason too........................the price is too high, lol.

Sorry late responding. Nothing technically wrong with it, it's just a $3000 maintenance item down the road. They claim they last between 150k-200k for the "wet belt" used to drive the oil pump. If you are buying new, probably nothing to worry about if you are getting rid of it within 100-150k. I'd install a catch can though :).

Maybe the car companies should not have settled with unions for such crazy wages, they should lay them off and hire partime workers , or move everything to Mexico, or reduce wages here and get rid of unions. All unions are at fault for our crazy economy, no body but union workers can afford much. The only unions there should be are in the medical field.

People buying cars don't really watch KZbin like that; we are the exception. If it makes sense to them financially and the dealer offers discounts, people will buy, no matter the price. I literally traded in my older vehicle and got a truck because they offered 0% APR, good trade-in value and additional discount on MSRP. People can say that the price of the trucks are not worth the product, but life is happenng before their very eyes. Trucks (and everything else) will only get more expensive. Get what you really want (house, trucks, grow a family etc) and enjoy it. Good luck and sending positive vibes. :)

I recently purchased a new Chevy 3500 high country. We waited as long as we could to purchase. We decided it wasn’t worth putting our plans on hold for a few dollars. I can make more money. I can’t make more time. We felt we got a reasonable deal. It listed for 92,000 and change. They lowered it to 86000 something so after tax was gonna be a little over sticker. We told them if they dropped to 90 k even we’d pick it up. An hour later they called said if we were there in next couple hours we could make a deal. So that’s what we did. So I guess it boils down to buying what you feel comfortable with. I understand not everyone can afford a vehicle suck as this. But remember there are enough that can.

Yeah every week I visit dealers, cars are selling. I just bought a used vehicle at a Cadillac dealer (didn't buy a caddy), they told me they sold over 20 cars last weekend, which is crazy. They said people will walk in and buy Escalades that cost $150k, cash, like it's nothing. I think these manufacturers have figured out that they can just sell fewer vehicles to the upper middle class, have less headaches, make more profit. I can't blame them but someone is going to fill in the lower market at some point. It'll probably be a Chinese company.

The issue I know of is the "wet oil pump belt" and some leaking rear main seals :). It's not really an issue just a maintenance item that shouldn't have been a belt, it should have been a chain design. It's a part that makes no sense to design as a belt...just cost cutting it seems. I think the maintenance interval is 150k miles so, if you are someone that trades before they you don't have much to worry about from what I have heard. It's about $3000 for a new belt. I think the latest 2024 is 200k interval but, people are still annoyed that it's a belt instead of chain. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqmqpmSmfq-YfdE
