I bought a new Toyota Tundra Limited in 2019 for $47,000. My son is an auto broker and tells me I could sell it for what I paid in about a day.

I see that a lot. Fairly new 3/4 and 1 ton trucks. I look at the undercarriage and they are very clean. Urban cowboys.

A lot of the price inflation for ICE vehicles is caused by losses on EV sales. Every major car maker LOSES money on each EV sold. They just cost shift to ICE buyers.

$95K for a Ford F-150 is just flaming insane.

Just a thought: someday you may have to move into an assisted living facility or nursing home and you’ll want to have money in the bank for your buy-in. They’ll take your home and car. Everyone including your loving adult kids and your religious institution will try to separate you from your cash along the way. Pay yourself first. Keep things in perspective.

I’m a retired project manager for automation companies.
I installed stuff for the big 3.
Labor is a very small portion of the cost of manufacturing.
Engineering, equipment and space are the second largest cost.
The single most expensive cost is complying with federal and state regulations.
New pollution controls for a paint shop is over half a billion dollars...
That’s BILLION, with a B.
And the plants are not run by management or the union.
The plants are run by the safety committee.

Every time I log into my bank account I get an ad saying I can lower my car paymennt by refinancing my car loan. Thankfully I have no car loan, paid cash for my bike.

So you got a car that’s underwater already and they want you to refinance at full term at what is likely a higher interest rate. Talk about digging that hole deeper and faster.

And the bank? what is with them? They want to loan you more than the car is worth?

Nailed it. I guess as long as you’re making the payments they will keep tapping that interest.
