We went new truck shopping over the weekend.
Dealer told us that the 2022’s would have a 10k price increase, and that all their inventory was already sold.........................
“Dealer told us that the 2022’s would have a 10k price increase,”
Don’t buy a new car yet, the New Car market will crash soon. If you buy now, you will be upside down on the value of the truck when the bubble pops.
The 2021 models of cars and trucks have been in short supply, have been selling at no discounts apparently, long waits, and the demand for used vehicles and hence their prices have been greatly increased.
The local new car dealer has had a large used lot for three years or so, both straight recent-model used and certified, and by late spring this year it was completely shuttered, no cars in the lot, and the used inventory was brought over into the (multibrand) new side of their complex to conceal the dearth of new inventory.
Based on some recent repairs on my poor old beater, the parts prices have increased as well, because more people are repairing in the face of no new vehicles and/or the high prices of new and used.
