Dealers need to feel what we felt for the last 3 years. They had the nerve to charge over MSRP. I say let all these cars ROT and force them to sell it to us where we can actually afford it.

[@sarkisseywaz2127]

Agreed 100%. Greedy manufactures and dealers. There are cars and trucks. That are 2 years old on the ground. There is no good deal. You can’t work a deal with greedy people

[@jameshowe5182]

Well said. 👍

​@@sarkisseywaz2127true. They would rather sell it at dealer auction or use as a loaner, rather than give significant price cuts to a customer. They are afraid word would get out if they give too much off. They don't want the market prices to go down. They don't want customers to come to expect large discounts.

[@markholubetz]

That’s simply gross but it’s residual from the pandemic pricing. Buyers have been a big factor in these new prices. Honda, Toyota and Lexus are known to have very low number of days supply but are more of an anomoly

I will never have a desire for Mach E's or Lightning's. I called today on a new pld stock "2023" Chevy Colorado LT but they still want full msrp. They even said "call for the sale price" but its just an old school way just to get you to call. A lot of GM dealers will not budge. I hope it keeps rotting away till its scrap. I really want a truck but not till they really really drop. And I don't feel sorry for dealers who had software issues in June. They would have scammed even more people

We should be able to buy factory direct and cut out the "dealership" middle man. Tesla does it.

[@markholubetz]

100 percent

[@jerrylundegaard2592]

And how is that good? How many times has Musk decided to lower his prices? Tesla's selling process is nothing great. It simply relies on people believing rather than knowing. Just ask all those Tesla buyers who now realize they paid far too much for the illusion (or delusion) of "cutting out the middle man" saving them money. Of course you can easily duplicate that wonderful Tesla model at any dealership. Simply pay the asking price and ask no questions, exactly as you do with Tesla.

[@areuhurtedwendy]

Talking simply about cutting out the middle man. Avoiding dealer mark ups. Not doing business exactly like Tesla. Only using them as an example of how they sell directly to the public. I would like a system where everything was simpler and way cheeper, rather than dealing with shady sales people. But I'm sure some keyboard cowboy is going to take this response out of context and school me like the last two Tesla experts just did.

[@jerrylundegaard2592]

@@areuhurtedwendy Keyboard Cowboy here with nothing out of context just some facts reflecting decades of finance knowledge. Buying a car can be very simple. Just walk into a dealership, ask for the price, pay the price, drive away happy. Just like with Tesla. Oh wait, with Tesla you rarely drive away, you must wait for delivery. Tesla was the crux of your original comment. So nothing is out of context. Even if they "cut out the middle man", the manufacturers will still need to have sales people, delivery people, shipping people, finance centers, and service centers. All this costs money. It is almost assured manufactures selling direct to the public would fall into the same sales games dealers play. Manufacturers would see profit in financing reserve, overpriced add-ons, and overpriced finance products. Eliminating dealers would not likely result in significantly lower prices as it would eliminate competition. As we have seen with Tesla and all Musk's price changes, when there is no competition sellers have no incentive to sell cheap. Manufacturers are businesses who want to earn as much profit as they can. There is no reason to assume any car manufacturer would have a business plan intended to minimize profit or benefit the car buyer. Cheap was the crux of your followup question. Again nothing out of context here.

[@ValeryKucher]

Thank you for your hard work and excellent videos. Still have one question to you. You are pressing hard on Mazda 10x reliability... What about it's engine prone to hard carbon buildup. I visited some Mazda fan chat and they all complain on the issue. They came to terms that engine must go shell blasting every 30K. That's expansive and PIA addition to the cost of ownership. Are you aware of it or this info is wrong?

[@markholubetz]

Yes, absolutely. That’s a sad result of direct injection and most makers are stuck with similar issues but Toyota and Lexus actually use dual port and direct systems so carbon fouling is not really an issue

Jeep's rebadged Fiat mini-SUVs, well, they sure don't.

[@chucke756]

Nothing is selling because we are tapped out due to inflation. I only get a 3% raise each year and it’s not keeping up with inflation. I make fairly good money but I am paying down debt and only buying essentials. I don’t understand these manufacturers and dealers. Toyota as an example doesn’t build or stock any vehicles close to the base models. The base models typically have most of the features you want - power everything and cruise control. I don’t care about the electronics - just give me a Bluetooth connection to the radio. I agree with you - really liking Mazda price point and good quality. I know that the old Mazda 3s were really reliable and easily last 200k with minimal maintenance. If you want a Toyota product buy a new 4Runner or used everything else. The new engines are falling apart due to a design flaw. You would expect those clown asses to put that shxt through a brutal testing program. Let me test it and see how good it is!! 😂😂

Meh. If we wait until the REAL pain starts, and some go bankrupt, then we can get even better deals and schadenfreude that's priceless. They have been saying "screw you" for a while, and most have always been dishonest, unethical businesspeople. Let them feel the pain. Let the ones that aren't truly exemplary in terms of ethics and customer service, get taken out, hopefully for good. If you must buy a new car (I wouldn't touch most of the latest offerings, with even quality standouts like Toyota trucks taking a nosedive while prices jump even higher) but if you must, buy through Costco or some other outlet that isn't a car lot.
