They have to start offering more simple cars and trucks for under 20k. Most of the general population doesn't even need and can't afford more than that even if they think they can. All these bloated out computers on wheels for 40k+ is so overboard it's insane. So many people think they need AWD when they put no use to it, have to have heated stirring wheel, can't be bothered to...on no...reach over and push the button instead of having it on the wheel. Cameras, sensors, more tech more tech... But people dug this hole themselves. They kept buying into it, kept going into debt for it and the industry kept lining it's pockets and pushing for more profits.

Tried to buy a car last weekend. The price on the window included the fake admin fee. When we got inside the salesman gave us numbers that included an extra admin fee as well as a $900 Lojack that wasn't on the window as an add on. So $1844 more as soon as we started negotiating. Then they took off the extra admin fee and they called it a discount. However, we told them to take the lojack out and they. Wouldn't. Needless to say..they still have the car. These people are crazy!!

I bought a 1999 RAV4 last August for $3,000. My first Toyota. I only had to change the oil so far. It had just under 200,000 miles. I think I got a great deal! Even though it's 25 years old there is no rust. It was a South Carolina car. A couple months later my wife bought a 2006 Matrix. A Florida car. No issues with it. I think I'm sold on Toyotas!

That would have been a $1.2 - 1.6k car just a few years ago. I see people selling well used 90s model F-150s that would have gone for $1-2k just a few years ago, that they are now trying to sell for $5k +. This isnt just a manufacturer & dealership issue, its an economy issue. The economy was not a machine designed with an off switch, and thats what they did, and since then EVERYTHING has been screwed up. The worst part, they learned nothing.

I rented a Grand Wagoneer for a wedding in Atlanta over the weekend. (I drive a 2007 Tacoma) Yes, it was a really nice ride with many features, most I didn’t know how to use. The cameras and sensors around the car make it really nice to drive. Seeing showing overhead view when your backing up, lane change warnings if a car is to close, etc. way beyond what I am used to.

Many years ago I used to work for a BHPH lot. The guy who owned the place always carried a bottle of water with him. Mazda 626 v6's had a design flaw where there was no way for liquids to drain out of the recessed spark plug wells. So when he looked over a car he wanted he would pull a plug wire and pour an inch of water in that plug well, then put the plug wire back on. It was completely invisible and cause a cylinder misfire code. 😆

I wonder if it really hurts them as much as people think it does. Reason = If you pay $5000 a month for 50 new cars on your lot per month and you sell 10, you gain another new 10 back from the manufacturer so you still have 50 cars on your lot and you are still paying the same $5000 a month.

According to car gurus prices never went up during tax season this year. In fact, prices are still down -3.96% over the last 90 days and -0.22% over the last 30 days. In March of 2019 the avg. used car price was $22k and today the avg price is $27k. So we still have a ways to go until we are at pre-pandemic price levels. However, prices are still trending down and there is no stopping in sight. Things are not going to get better, this market is crashing. Let the data do the taking.

Only problem with this is that the parts market isnt at all what it used to be. Progressively, its either DRAMATIC increases in part costs that are mainly used, because a LARGE % of the manufacturing of new parts for old cars is gone, or its an inability to find parts which means your automobile is down for an indefinite period. This will just get worse as vintage parts manufacturing continues to dwindle. That aside, there are only so many used parts to go around, and those only last so long.

We're trying to replace a totalled vehicle (young drivers!), but prices are still crazy on most everything. One owner, no accidents, 186k miles, '08 4Runner at a legit Toyota dealer I looked at yesterday, the dealer wanted $11,6k and they ain't budgin'! Car was an odd mix of taken care of, yet pretty much thoroughly worn out and filthy on the outside. Like I said, an odd mix. I asked if they were even going to clean it up and detail it and the salesman said "Nope"! And it's not even in their budget lot! 😕

This is exactly the information I've been waiting for! It's crazy at dealerships right now and I appreciate you explaining the situation from both the buyer and seller perspective. Sounds like prices are inflated due to tax season rush, but there's a good chance they'll drop by summer. I'll definitely wait until then to buy and avoid the bidding wars. In the meantime, good luck finding that missing 10mm socket, Alex!

I bought a new '23 Widebody Scat Pack Challenger in the color I wanted in Central Florida last weekend. Late last year they were markups 5k to 10K plus on these vehicles. I got it with 12k off sticker and all the rediculous fees marked off at this particular dealership. With other area dealerships competing slashing prices. I wish I could wait more but with the Challengers you have what you have on the lot and thats it - no more. Its getting crazy lol.

My wife is in the market right now for a mid sized SUV. In the past couple of months, I still haven't seen anything more than $1k off, even on $60 to $70k vehicles. The sales people are admitting that sales are really slow, but the managers are still waiting for dummies to buy at these prices. I told them they could keep sitting on them. It may take a while, but I'll find a dealer that'll eventually need to sell at a decent discount.

I see these old trick when going to salvage auctions also, things unplugged, fuses slightly pulled out so cars are a no start and the person who did it is trying to get the car for much cheaper as most people don't have the time or want to diagnose a non starter in the salvage yard and pass on the car.

I'm looking for a new vehicle May / June time frame but will probably buy a Toyota 4runner with non turbo V6. Tired of over engineered domestic trucks with actual USA content below 40% and made in Mexico. You should do a video on this.
