I have a three year old truck with 30k miles on it. I was offered more money for it by a dealer than I paid for it new. I guess this is how build back broken Bidenomics works, huh?

Limited supply of vehicles and soaring home prices. Everybody wants a new truck.

I get the same offers all the time. It sounded bizarre until I read the fine print. The dealer isn’t offering me cash to buy the truck back. They’re offering me $50,000 for a truck that cost me $45,000 … but only as part of a trade for a new truck that costs $65,000.

Oh — and if I take that deal, the new truck probably won’t even be delivered to the dealer for another six months.

We traded in our 2003 minivan for a new car last July. Talk about timing!

Carvana offered me $348 more for my 2016 Silverado than what I paid for it five and a half years ago. And it has 58,000 miles on it. I would have grabbed it, but I need it for about three or four more months. Instead, I sold my almost seven year old Jeep Wrangler for $4900 less than I paid for it in February 2015.

The 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo I bought used in 2016 w/32,000 miles on it for $21k has a local tradein value of just over $15k per KBB and it has over 108,000 miles on it.

Same exact vehicle on a dealers lot with 120,000+ miles on it is selling used for $18k.

Bidenomics!!

Color me shocked.
