    Got clarification today.most Banks and credit unions are saying the cars are over 12 to 18 months old so they are cutting the amount they will pay on MSRP. Navy Federal will not go over 80% of sticker for any car manufactured before May of 2023, and 75% or less for any 2023 models manufactured in 2022.

      @@speedfiend925 This is normal practice, and has been for the 18+ years I have been in the industry. March is typically the cutoff for left over vehicles to be considered as a new vehicle for financing purposes. At this point, they are financing and booking them out as used vehicles. Dealers sitting on scat packs and hellcats are royally screwed because there is only an average of $1400 - $1600 markup on these cars and ZERO incentives from Stellantis on anything beyond an R/T.

      This seems like common sense to me.. it’s what I’ve been doing in negotiations with dealers. I’m supposed to take the 30% depreciation of the first 2 years that this car sat on a lot? I don’t think so. Dodge deserves everything that is coming to them.

    TK is right. I Tried to buy a 2023 challenger hellcat narrow body. Capital one would only go 80 percent of msrp, I have a 743 score and no debt. The only lenders that would do full MSRP were sub prime with over 12 percent interest. This is sad. I went and bought a mustang smh. Ford at least will work with the price these dodge dealers won't.

      I’m no EV fan but from what I’ve read, most EV batteries can be refurbished for industrial, charge station, or in-home battery storage (Tesla has been putting them in their “Tesla Wall”). For batteries that are at end-of-life, the lithium, cobalt, and nickel are extracted and can be reused in the production of new battery cells (they do this frequently for phone and laptop batteries as well).
      With that said, I’ll trust an internal combustion-based vehicle over EV any day of the week. The low range, high up-front cost and repair cost are reasons enough to stay away.

    I've also seen where the insurance rates are much higher and that's for insurance companies that are willing to even ensure EVs which are becoming fewer because the insurance companies essentially take a loss especially on these Teslas that have been seen catching on fire. The insurance companies aren't getting any money back so as a result more insurance companies do not even want to have EVs on any of their policies. These cars are an absolute joke..

    I just bought a Charger RT two weeks ago. $48k MSRP, paid just under $34k OTD. Went with Stellantis financing at 8.01%, and yes tier 1 credit, because got an additional $1000 off to finance through dealer. Even though had better rate through Navy Federal. With trade, reasonable down payment, financed appropriately $25k. Can still refi the loan, but point is you can find and make a good deal if you’re not too emotional about it. Would I love to have gotten a Scat Pack or Hellcat? Sure, but just makes a lot less financial sense. Will pay the thing off in a year or two, and have much more flexibility at that point. Still, finance manager talked to me like I was an idiot for not buying a single thing they proposed in their usual finance office dance.

Could have purchased a narrow body Hell Cat with an MSRP of $83,000 for $ 63,000 but I couldn't see paying for HP that I would never use and I liked the look of the wide body much better. Plus insurance was much more expensive. Dealers in South Florida are way over stocked and willing to deal if you stand firm and walkout a few times.

Way too many ppl are trying to keep up with the Jonses, keep getting bored with the new shit they already overpaid for, gotta have the latest n greatest and just throw money around like its candy at a kids party. I guess I'm old fashioned, I buy shit and prefer to keep it and get my money's worth. Ppl just love to stay in unnecessary debt forever & that's exactly what all these companies & banks want! Ppl used to buy new cars with the intent of keeping them for years then passing them down to relatives. Cars aren't meant to be disposed of & rapidly replaced as the most previously released iPhone. I'll keep my old outdated Supercharged 6.2 Hemi forever and enjoy it even more after I pay the bank off and have no more payments then do all the mods I really want, maybe Demon? or /Hellephant swap ??. I look forward to reaching 100k or 200k miles and beyond on all my cars. They can keep all that new disposable nonsense and I'll just enjoy mine and focus on building & improving 1/4 mile times with $0 monthly payments!

    It's feasable if you have the infrastructure but even the tech isn't there yet. We don't have 25,000 chargers per state and if we did, we would need more coal plants to serve those chargers to charge those EV's...

    One thing I have consistently noticed about EVs. Their ride when encountering imperfect roads is HORRIBLE. It almost feels like they have no give in the suspension due to the central location of the batteries so in order to protect them the suspension is too stiff as a result. I got an Uber ride in a Chevy Bolt and the ride was very similar to Teslas I have ridden in also via Uber.

    I own outright a Dr. Dre addition 2012 Black top V6 Charger with a factory installed Hellcat interior delivered to Germany from Canada with no speed limit governor built for the German Autobahn. I'm not worried at all about the resale value of my Charger and plan to drive this car as my last car. I feel for people trying to buy new Chargers and Challengers. The quality is garbage and every 2018 Charger I've looked at has panels on the doors warping, cracked arm rests, roof liners hanging and paint peeling. My car looks like it just rolled off a showroom floor. No way I'd trade in my extremely rare Charger for any newer model.

    • @PassportBrosBusinessClass
      @PassportBrosBusinessClass 20 дней назад

      Vehicle leases aren’t as affected as vehicle finances. Leases usually come from a dealers internal bank. Leases also only apply on brand new vehicles. Financing depreciated Dodge hemi products is what the banks are saying no to because they know that the MSRP has been inflated, there is a markup on the car and on top of that the cars have been sitting on the lot for a while. Then there is the fact that they know that these cars are highly stolen and vandalized. Neither bank nor insurance companies want anything to do with them. For the people who think that they’re just going to wait for Dodge to/prices and somehow be able to walk out with a brand new HELLCAT for $50,000. These people are going to be in for a long wait!

    Dodge aka Stellantis is on its way to the grave. Their failure to meet government mandated fleet mileage goals, paying millions in fines, and a lack of new cars that people want, its all over. I just saw a Jeep Rubicon in the showroom with the 392 Hemi, sticker price of $98,000.00 The rise in prices is due to the fines they are paying to the government. Also buying a used SRT Hellcat, 392 is a huge risk. My last observation is the Challenger and Charger buyers who do not know what a speed limit is, and street racing. racing is for the track, not the streets, a BIG killer of these 2 vehicles. It’s a shame, I had 2 SRT’s and 2 Hellcats. I went back to Corvette, on my 7th one. I still do have my 2017 Jeep SRT which i will keep for a long time and a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. I hope Stellantis doesn’t kill Jeep.

The EV weighs 1,000 lbs heavier than the car it replaced and will make it a pig on energy. I supercharged my Pentastar Charger and it gets 41mpg on the Interstate. All with off the shelf parts.
