The 35% would be helpful but it means nothing if the dealers start jacking up the pricing like they have been. Also means nothing if the quality continues to be garbage.

[@gixxingthecommute3410]

That was dealers taking advantage of a rare situation - Covid and work from home. The dealers took advantage of the situation with their market adjustments, making the manufacturers want to grab that markup. 2024 has seen CDJR dealers not being able to sell anything and the reason is they've raised MSRP by 51% over 5 years: wildly over inflation rates Now, I won't believe it until I see it, but the market has hit a wall and they need to cut. What I worry about is the people that bought when prices were high, not they're upside down on their vehicle valuations and would need some type of loyalty bonus to be able to trade in their vehicles.

[@djjd3027]

@gixxingthecommute3410 I won't disagree with anything you said, but back in August, cjdr started offering discounts. Dealers would raise their pricing and then offer the discounts bringing the prices back to msrp.

The engine in my BMW 5 series self-destructed because the guide rails for the timing chain, made of the wrong type of plastic, failed. The dealership wanted $12,000 parts and labor for a new engine. Nope. I will never buy another BMW.

[@SliderFury1]

Which engine?

[@tg_ny]

@ The first few years of the N20 (N20B20). They used the wrong type of plastic. They quietly switched to a diffferent type. BMW should have issued a recall to replace the bad rails but didn’t, and a large number of customers suffer complete engine failures. This resulted in a class action lawsuit which BMW lost, but if you had over 100K miles on your car when the engine failed, you received no compensation. I have owned four BMWs, and the durability of the cars diminished with the newer models. Their xdrive components like axles and CV joints, etc. don’t hold up under normal use either and are very expensive to replace. As a premium brand, they need to do better. They are an awesome car to have if you lease them for three years and then turn them back in, but if you like to own your vehicles for a while or put a lot of mileage on cars, then BMW is a brand to stay away from.

[@robmacarthur3778]

Lots of good comments here. The question is can they make money cutting prices? If a Wrangler 4xe hybrid is $55k, they are probably charging the dealer $45-48k. Stellantis only makes 17% on the sale of cars. If those cars go to $37.5-40k, Stellantis would have to sell it at around $29-30k. Can they lower their fixed costs fast enough to make money selling at that price? They may not be able to lower their prices, maybe labor is a big component.

[@thomasj1026]

35%? That's more than what I said. I said a minimum of 20-25% back tp where prices used to be. Which would put vehicles within modern inflation ranges.

[@wanted-33]

Reducing the MSRP 35% is a good idea to help get CDJR back in the action. The only problem is, the guy that just bought that 90K truck in 2024 just lost 35% in the value of his truck. He'll be upside down like the folks that paid those 10/15K dealer mark-ups during covid.

[@darrelldoty7757]

I said a few days ago that if anyone would have the balls to flinch first and come back to reality it would be RAM! Let’s see if they do it. 35% is the minimum for them since they raised prices so much. I feel that by the time Ford and GM realize they have to follow suit Ram will be well on the road to recovery and have happy customers again on the 2500 and 3500s. They will then need to sell the 1500’s without a hemi v8 at cost, true cost that is not the invoice price that is not the true cost and then come back with it and the 1500 will recover. Oh and RAM, as soon as you decide to lower the seat so I can see through the middle of the windshield I’ll come take a look. You changed those awful mirrors which was a must now just fix the seat!

@ I have a 2023 GMC 3500 Denali Dually. Mirrors, seat and price drove me to the gmc. I was a ford guy but the prices were stupid.

The Denali is a very nice truck but I rented a Ram dually on a business trip once in 2023 and loved it. Except for the seat.

Unfortunately, trade-in valuations will also decline, and the resulting negative equity will discourage many from upgrading. This shift could further accelerate the trend of consumers moving away from full-size trucks. As economic pressures mount, more practical and cost-effective choices will likely take precedence, forcing even the most loyal buyers to reconsider the need for oversized vehicles. The full-size truck market, once a dominant force, may continue to dwindle as more sober minds prioritize efficiency, affordability, and practicality over sheer size and capability.

[@robmacarthur3778]

Negative equity is an interesting topic. Some say the average consumer has $6k of negative equity. I think it's much higher especially for people that bought during the pandemic when dealer mark-ups were at their peak with banks lending at 165% LTV. Where are we today? What percentage of consumers that come in expecting to shop for a new car only to find they can't because of their negative equity? They could be trying to roll $10 or even $20k and no bank is going to roll 20k if the consumer want to buy a 30k car or even a 60k car

35% off top value vehicles. The lower value vehicles will not see much change. Hang on and don't cave in. There is more value waiting if you can hold out. Remember the vehicles from 2015 forward are scrap plastic and some metal. If you buy them they will fail you and you need to allow for costly repairs that with no doubt need to be done before 100,000 miles. There is a long list of junk built into your new vehicle. Please go online before you buy and check CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS. The people who have experienced the problems will guide you to leave certain ones alone and gamble on others. Remember the cost to repair them is high so your offer better be low. You will be walking anyway you tackle the issue so pick the one without the free shoe offer.

Dropping prices significantly on new product increases the depreciation for recent buyers putting them in a bigger hole with car loans. While you are trying to attract new customers with deals your existing customers get hosed, although the buyer should not have overpaid in the first place. Trying to move stuff that has been setting for two years takes more effort than just dropping the price. Shady dealers do not want to expend the effort to properly prep vehicles suffering from lot rot. If they will make less profit from a transaction they are even less inclined to do the right thing. I traded in my last Mopar product twenty years ago. What they say about boats is the same with Mopars. The two happiest times were the day I took delivery and the day I sold it.

[@soscattered6126]

I guess if the dealers don't mmark the price back up 35% after the cut,one could afford the extended warranty. This way when the inevitable engine grenade comes along and the vehicle is at the dealer for 3 months (while making payments), the rental is covered.

[@robthehomeowner]

@@Danny508pr1 yes bro. Cars are so much more expensive down there.

[@davidhelfrich2511]

Doesn't matter if the price comes if the reliability isn't there.

[@nomadpi1]

35% off MSRP of vehicles priced $75K up to $100K still makes the vehicles too expensive for no more than they are! Jeeps and Pick-ups are only worth $20 to $40K. These are just basic transportation for people. You live in a city w/no car? Fine. But west of the Mississippi River, you need a car or pick-up to get groceries, go to a MD appointment, et al reasons.

Talk about a Day Late and a Dollar Short. I've already passed on the Gladiator due to their outrageous pricing and quality issues. Purchased a Frontier Pro4X instead.

[@eldoradoboy]

so they HEAVILY discounted my brand new ram... byt a **LOT**.. I got it for 25% off MSRP and no dealer fees.. and actually a good lease money factor.. now it would be nice if I actually got to drive it.... second day i had it.. check engine light.. misfires.. went in..they kept it a couple days... got it back.. couple days later.. check engine lights... misfires... they think they have the fix and apply it... i go to pick it up today and its dead.. like nothing nada zilch zip.. no lights no sound no nothing... so they towed it right back into the garage where it is now no idea why... brand new 2025 RAM... id love to actually get to drive it..

[@JohnSmith-de2mz]

Bring back the standard cab Dakota, short bed true midsize like my 07 Colorado in size with the Hurricane engine and manual tran and that discount and I WILL BUY IT

[@BBBILLY86]

Prices are too high. But slashing 2025 prices by 35% will also cut the value of all current inventory, trade-ins, and value of vehicles purchased in the last 2 years. People will be instantly underwater with their loans and truck value so unable to sell or get a decent trade in. Good way to sell trucks. Bad thing to screw over current vehicle owners.

[@kirkdunn1379]

can't happen because of this very thing, will offset the market too much....not to mention the bank loans currently on those vehicles.....

[@BBBILLY86]

@kirkdunn1379 I'm seeing several thousand off MSPR and 0.6 to 2.99% dealer loans all over the web. I scored a new last call Scat Pack 22k off mspr and my daughter bought a new Subaru at 2.99% thru Sub. I refinanced my 9.3% down to 5.7%. Deals are out there if people look further than the window sticker.

[@leedanielson7452]

50K is more than enough for any truck.....

[@elrickthebrave]

Do you think they’ll bring back the hemi?

[@seank2531]

If CAT really does release that truck at 40K all these other companies are done for. And if you can just cut 35% of your profit, then you've been ripping people off for far to long. Maybe more CEO's need to be put on notice.

[@GreenLantern.J.S.]

There is a new problem, since those cars were sitting on a lot for a year plus, especially in East Coast where it rains and snows a lot, parts have to be replaced now like, brakes which are expensive, battery, oil and gas due to water separation. And people have to pray nothing happened inside of an engine and transmission because they were standing there dry. I know there is oil in oil pans, but when there is no circulation, it affects certain inner components.

[@robmacarthur3778]

How much do you think it would cost to properly maintain vehicles on the lot that are over 100 or 150 days old? Are we talking about 500 per months or 1000? Brakes get expensive quickly.

[@ksorsomeplace]

The sooner the better...like January 2025. I'm tired of waiting for more reasonable prices.

[@BringPontiacBack]

That Pontiac Purple Silver Streak is truly P TK. I’m new to the channel but love the news. Hope we can work together to bring Pontiac Back!

[@CharlesCurran-m9p]

That’s great news if true but they need to get the quality and reliability up too.
