To buy an 80,000 and be financially responsible a customer should make a minimum of 141,000 per year. To buy a 125,000 vehicle, a customer should be at 217,000 a year. These customers are not average customers and people in that income bracket have basically every brand of vehicle trying to sell them.

Used car prices - those with reasonable mileage, and that won't require full coverage insurance - SURELY that is a hot market right now. Home prices, gas, groceries, homeowners insurance, car insurance - *_People are TIRED of feeling fleeced by everything_* I bet used car availability will TANK.

Chrysler/Dodge lost their way with the elimination of the base shorty window Caravan. CB

I keep hearing this but I see 30 day tags everywhere

Car Market losing money goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[@optimusprime1634]

Here in the north east you dont see much price change. You call the dealers and offer them 1500 less on a 30k car and they say no.

[@huddunlap3999]

If the big companies knew what was coming they would have dropped prices awhile back,

[@dannycalley7777]

HD ..............I guess you call that Blind Greed ???

[@KNIGHTOFELEMIA-i7i]

If it's not making money dump it. I bet they are dumping dealerships that are not making and are actually costing them money.

[@us-unclesam6566]

Why will they not lower prices. People I know who are thinking about buying new are actually angry that no good deals ate available. Taking their cars and trucks gor brake jobs in order to keep them longer.

[@frankm2145]

Dealers are closing in erie pa

[@jesusabueno1701]

Love the styling of nissan, but the CVT is a deal breaker.

[@markgarcia733]

I see more new trucks on the road with paper tags from dealer now days than I have ever before in my area. King Ranch, Platinum, High Country, all the high dollar trims. People are still buying these $80k trucks out here.

IF the car market is collapsing, THEN why would anyone buy a car dealership from Auto Nation or any other company at this time ?

[@Pro1er]

If Ford wants to sell astronomically priced vehicles they need to stop making junk.

[@ratrodnation]

Said two Ford dealerships, in White Bear Lake, Minn., and Union City, Ga.

[@edwsal59]

There is a AutoNation near me and they have a large banner that says "Open". Are sales so slow one can't tell if you are open without a large open sign?

[@SHOE53]

Yep AutoNation see what coming down the road, these ice have got so expensive it's pushing people to ev, none of these ice should be selling at those prices these dealer were asking.

[@hondomckee1555]

This is the end result of over-inventing the automobile.

[@janellhanks5324]

What will happen to. These cars , suv and trucks?

[@Tobstertacoma]

Does this mean Bideonomics is NOT working then, lol??

[@banzaii6285]

🤣🤣Over a 100K for a Jeep?...a ridiculous price does not make it "Luxury" This whole situation is going to be interesting to watch. Maybe they're counting on a bail out from Uncle Sam again.

[@jdub1139]

Car dealers are going to find out that customers won’t be coming in until they advertise these discounts.

[@timkis64]

let the GREEDY companies choke on their own GREED.reminds me of the song "we're not gonna take it".

[@TAmattdamon]

Only nissan i would buy is stick shift,since they are droping them on lot of there lines then i can not trust there cvt.

[@Riverboat374]

It's almost like these big auto makers know something is coming. Like another big round of stimmie checks and zero percent interest rates. Wonder what "they", have planned for this Fall?

[@miket.220]

I’d like to be able to buy a new reliable easy to maintain vehicle free of endless doodads and a basic automatic transmission for less than $25k out the door -AT THE DEALERSHIP -. First car company than can deliver that gets my business. Otherwise I just keep repairing my 11yr old car.

[@yountune9799]

Nope, not seeing car prices come down in GR86, GR Corolla, Porsche Cayman. Something cheap I can track with minimal modification.

And most don't even give the military discount to veterans, but only active duty or retired.

I don't care if trucks were $20,000 I wouldn't buy one, just filling up the gas tank sucks.
