They adopted a business model that needed only 17% of the automotive market to work. And it did for 2+ years. If they want the mainstream of the other 83% back in the market, they will have to build quality vehicles their customer base wants and can afford. That is how capitalism works. When the Government tells the public what they will be allowed to choose from and manipulates the market on pricing, this is how socialism works. A perfect example is the Government force feeding EVs onto an unwilling market at too high of cost and actually blocking the necessary infrastructure improvements necessary to support them.

Odds are pretty good all of this will happen.

Exactly, no car is worth what the price tag is. We have massive fully scaled up global production that makes everything that goes into a car the cheapest it has ever been, but even modest sedans are pushing 30K. My civic brand new is north of 25K, and that isn’t even for an SI. I can’t imagine what an electric version would go for knowing what the ICE version costs, not that I want an electric car in the slightest, but it’s just the thought. It’s crazy price gouging, mostly by the dealers themselves but also by the manufacturers cranking up their own pricing. I get the coof slowed and disrupted things, but that has been gone for so long now we should be back at it, but then we also have to remember that pricing never comes down even if conditions return to normal.

Thanks for posting this video. Funny story...I special ordered that High Altitude 4xe your sister highlighted and decided I didn't want it because a Rubicon better fit my needs. Peterson ordered the Rubicon X 4xe for me and at the time of order the hitch and auxiliary switches were standard equipment. Jeep changed that while the vehicle was in production and shipped the Rubicon X without those features. The dealership refused to advocate for me with Jeep Cares to have the equipment added so I completely backed out of the deal. The Rubicon X stickered for $78K and the dealership wanted me to pay an additional $1833 to added standard equipment. I ultimately ordered the vehicle from another dealership and took delivery back in May and got a better deal. So, not only does this dealership have a $72K High Altitude sitting on the lot, the also have a $78K Rubicon X 4xe sitting on the lot all because they couldn't be bothered to do the right thing. I hope they are enjoying that floor plan cost.

Retired from over 25 years with one of the largest auto makers. They allowed employees to work as much overtime as they wanted. Usually unsupervised, and not accomplishing anything other than padding their paychecks. They spend outrageous amounts of money on ridiculous things that do nothing to improve efficiency of work processes. All that cost goes directly into sticker prices at the dealer. Amount of wasted money is astonishing.

That’s a false equivalency.

Then you’d have a point because even those are overpriced. Hell, the 2 door 4x4 tradesman Cummins they had shown in the video is insane pricing. I’d gladly drop another 30k and get the bee’s knees 5500 limited and have all the bells and whistles than drop 70k for what is essentially a tarp with a bucket to sit on 😆

Dealers and manufacturers got used to price gouging during the coved shortages, and thought they could get away with not lowering prices to the pre-coved numbers, when the shortages were over. It’s an epidemic of greed that’s all over the corporate world right now. We’re not experiencing inflation, we’re experiencing greedflation. There’s not reason that most products shouldn’t have returned to their normal levels, but companies are colluding to keep prices artificially high.

Not much has changed since 2020 on their hd trucks so i couldn't see spending over $80k for a new one. The previous owner took very good care of it, had it paint corrected and then ceramic coated along with clear protective film on the front and on bottom behind the wheels. This was all done at a professional shop and shows on the carfax. I got it for a little over $50k.

When I was shipping for my new Jeep in 2022, The Rubicons were vastly overpriced compared to the other versions. They must add a premium just for the Rubicon name. I ordered the basic, basic Jeep Wrangler Sport (not Sport S, or any of the other crap), added the 3-piece hard top and a couple small additions and it cost me $39,115. When adding in the delivery fee, tax, etc the total ended up being $43k. My previous vehicle was a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Classic which I bought new in 2001 for $26k. Factoring in inflation between 2001 and 2022, that $26k would be about $43k in 2022 dollars, so I felt the price was equitable to what I had paid for my previous Jeep. But prices now have gotten way out of control.

Just about twelve years ago, I was shopping for a new truck. I could have got an new Ford, Chevy, or Dodge/Ram: -1/2 ton - long bed - regular cab - V8 engine - 4x4 - plain jane model The prices were around $25K to $28K. If I would have waited for year end clearance deals I could have gotten one for around $24K - $25K. The automakers are pricing themselves out of business. Newer trucks are crap anyway. In the last decade or so, I know several people who have bought trucks from the 70's and 80's for a less than $2K and completely rebuilt them from the ground up, usually spending around $15K - $20K and have a new truck more or less when they are finished.
