I won’t go that far but they are certainly not worth what they are asking. Anyone who pays over $50k for a Wrangler of any kind needs psychiatric help.

It's ALL brands. Visited two GM stealerships last week. I was hoping to find a Chevrolet Colorado or GMC Canyon that was under $40K. NOPE. They START at $45K and soar to an obscene $81K. How the hell can a "light pickup" cost $81K??? I snorted and walked off the lot. They can sit on those for all I care. In the last year, I have seen a grand total of two of these trucks on the roads. Nope, nobody is going to pay $50K for a stinking pickup. Heck, the back seat is stiff as wood and very uncomfortable.
WOW, just seeing how dirt laden those vehicles are, they are the Stellantis symbol of lot rot. The brands are doomed. The Stealership deserves to not have their name blurred out. Everyone should see who they are. Cheers.
i like how cutting price is the only answer and the only thing they wont try to fix it. ive got a dealer in my town who takes TWO dollars off their price every couple weeks. like the cars have been there since August dude, the tires are rotting at a higher rate than the discounts roll in.
Could be a way for them to know how long they had the car on the lot. I know a store that works like that so salemans know if they need to move the product or if they can stay hard on the price.
I had a jeep grand Cherokee as a rental for 2 weeks. It was a hybrid and fully loaded. After driving it for 2 weeks anyone who pays more than 40k for it is getting ripped off.
@adamsteele6148 That is totally wrong. Overpriced? Yes! Junk? No way it hell are they junk -- they are solid cars -- owned a Jeep GC (5 of them since like 1986) -- never had a big problem.
The banks will just move money and debt around ... Maybe come up with a reverse repo flea flicker pitch back student body right program to clean things up, and transfer the losses to the public. It's Banking 101.
Okay, I'll admit it. I paid $56K out the door during peak Covid times - for the most expensive option at the time (no, not the V8). While it was TOO much, we love it. It does so many things - it's actually wonderful in town, great for driving on the beach, can really go off-road, gets 22-23 mpg average, and it's a convertible - even removed the doors a few times and it's a blast. Yes, not wonderful for cross-country driving but they're wildly popular where I live and for good reason. Yes, they are still too much money. Also, 3 years in and not a single issue. Not one. Sure, that's not a long-term trial but better than most.
I'm pissed too at the prices but saying you wouldn't pay $20,000 for a Wrangler is stupid. 20k would barely get you a side by side. And a top of the line Polaris will set you back $40,000.
Prices for jeeps are going up and up. I just don’t see how they would do that if they would lose money. Maybe they know something we don’t, wish we had insider info on why they are doing this
You don't even know the half of it. Peugeot, the initiator of Stellantis was investigated by the European Union for price gouging on parts. There is method to this madness. Chrysler will get dropped in no time when they don't contribute enough and most likely yet again go bankrupt for what, the 4th time? And this time it might be the final nail in the coffin. As for their products being upmarket, I had to recover from a laughing fit, Tavares (Stellantis CEO) can keep dreaming that these clunkers will ever be higher than bottom bargain bin quality. Both Peugeot and Fiat are trouble brands according to European statistics, mashing them together doesn't improve anything.
And to think I purchased my 2010 Jeep Patriot North Edition out the door for $24,000. I factory ordered it because I wanted it with a 5 speed manual and I still drive it today and it’s still going strong. I haven’t had car payments for over 10 years!!! I just don’t know how people can afford a new car at today’s prices. Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram deserve to go out of business!!!!
Some people are progressing and make good money to afford whatever sold around. Do you complain about other overpriced and nice to have things in the life? 14 years ago you've got Jeep's bottom line offer, why to complain about inability to get nowadays worthy vehicle?
Stellantis has raised the prices over 30% in four years… I refuse to buy one of their vehicles, after being a loyal customer for 25 years. I’ve already moved onto a different manufacture… they’re going the wrong direction on price and style
This attitude of Stellantis reminds me of the 505 wagon in 1989. Dealers and fans were screaming for a V6 and they said nope. The sedan had the V6 but for the wagon? We were told the 4 was good enough. It wasn't long before they withdrew from the US market. Nothing has changed with the European arrogance. All the many brands that make up Stellantis, none did well in the US. Citroen, Peugeot, Alfa, Fiat... all losers. But just because they ganged up they think this time will end differently?
Yep, those are all oddball, weird, dorky cars with the clientele to match. 😜😛😀...

You missed one misnomer on Stellantis' part. They keep investing all their R&D in the expensive vehicles and NOT the cheap ones. Instead they dress up older Compasses and try and sell them for $40,000+ instead of making them cheaper and more attractive.
What, are you trying to insinuate that putting a hard roof and three row seating into a Ram 1500 and calling it a Wagoneer and saying it's worth $120 Grand with a little 3L turbo 6 cylinder isn't innovative?
they used to share a platform with the Dodge Caliber. the compass and patriot are the cheap models. Now they're selling the Compass for the price of a grand cherokee
Here in Australia,Jeep sales have been declining sharply since they screwed their customers with overpriced parts over the counter without lubricants for years.
Msrp on jeep has gone up by over 50% since 2019, seems they should cut prices by half to me. And yes I'm aware they'll never do that but it does highlight how much these little 5 to 10% off they're pushing now is a joke. They want Lexus prices for fix it again Tony quality and no ones biting.
Spot on analysis. Jeep/Dodge went upmarket in pricing when their quality remained mediocre and the alternatives were better priced, higher quality and/or more luxurious. Some poor strategic planning going on. And now they have the UAW BS contract around their necks. They could stop production for a year to sell off dealer inventory and then move production to Mexico for less costs and a more commited work force.
The Wrangler price has increased avg 48.6% from 2018-2023. A pathetic 10% off MSRP factory discount doesn't cut it. My 2017 Wrangler JKU was $33,617. To get the same options/configuration in a 2024 Wrangler JLU would cost me $59,300. lol. Big hard PASS.
None of these Jeeps were inspected before they left the factory. If you walk and look at each Jeep you will find flaws that never should have left the factory. They called me at night 9pm. The next morning I was furious. The leather dashboard was all bunched up where the headsup display frame fits over the leather. It could not be fixed a new dashboard had to be installed. They suck!! screws all over the floor and under the seats? Luckly I have no squeaks or issues. The entire industry needs to fail.
Quality control doesn't really exist at any car factories. The only standard out the door is that it runs. The rest is warranty work at the dealer. Actual company spokesperson I saw on TV some years ago.
Been saying this for the past 2 years in other channels. Here is what I’m gonna say “ the roof, the roof, the roof is on fire………we don’t need no water, let the mother Effer BURN!!”. MSRP needs to drop roughly $5-$10k from stellantis. Dealer incentives are stupid.
that is still not even close to being reasonable....prices need o drop 20-30k MSRP! But that will never happen because ppl have stupid....and demand SOOO MUCH FANCY CRAP in modern vehicles now days that drives up the price to the state were currently in....you think its cheap to slam that 10" dual touchscreen in the new rams? or all that stupid fancy lexury crap that no one really needs then complain why there vehicles cost 100k
We drove grand cherokees for over 20 years. When we could no longer get a V8 grand for under 60 thousand, we walked away. We now have a sedan and are happy with our choice. I will not pay $60 grand for a vehicle. I want to retire someday. The vehicle industry quit selling us on total cost years ago and started selling us on payments. "What payment are you wanting?" They will finance you for a decade if you are willing. The cost of lost buying power and earning compound interest for yourself will keep you broke forever.
I just looked at Jeep Wrangler prices at my local CDJR dealer and couldn't believe what they are asking for them. The most expensive was a Rubicon 392 with a MSRP of $100,025, and they had a massive discount of $500 with another $1000 Jeep cash back. I heard people are lined up around the block for a chance to buy it.
"We thought after years of shafting the customers they would continue to bend over, who could have seen that they would get fed up of our gouging scams?"
Biggest mistake stellantis has done is chopping the hemi engine and even more the hellcats from the line up which leaves them with nothing but sorry jeeps and humdrum vehicles no one wants
What ever happened to freedom of choice? Incase you didn’t know In The US we have an open market the folks will dictate if these businesses will survive or fail… so be thankful we still live in a place that if you don’t like it you don’t have to buy it…
The CHEROKEE is discontinued. My local dealership, Crown Chrysler/Jeep/RAM/Dodge has no Cherokee's, 300s, Hornets, and Pacifica's.

They suck!! screws all over the floor and under the seats? Luckly I have no squeaks or issues. The entire industry needs to fail.
Wow that’s horrendous. They really need to pay more attention to
The entire industry needs to fail!
Quality control doesn't really exist at any car factories. The only standard out the door is that it runs. The rest is warranty work at the dealer. Actual company spokesperson I saw on TV some years ago.
Wow you are a smart one
If you're paying attention you know now is not the time to be jumping into a new set on monthly payments.
I enjoy both of your shows. Keep them coming.👌
My car payment would be more than my rent, I don't think so.
These are overpriced junks. No wonder nobody wants to buy them.
Yep, pure garbage.
@riph5611 They are over priceed but they are definitely NOT "junk" that is ignorant.
@@Mandolin1944What an ignorant statement
You obviously don’t know the defect rates of Stellantis vehicles @@Mandolin1944
@Mandolin1944 oh but they are
139k for a Wagoneer. And I thought the land cruiser was bad...
The new 2024 LandCruiser base price is $57,000. I think they will undersell everyone and finally bring these prices down.
You forgot to say $86K Plus Sales Tax Registration and License Fee
I may have missed it, but at which section was the portion where the CEO responds?
The price adjustments
@@markholubetzThat's misleading. Somewhat clickbaitish, no? Like the OP, I thought the CEO responded to this video.
They are not going to discount/rebate them 25%. No way. They will send them to auction before they do that.
Been saying this for the past 2 years in other channels. Here is what I’m gonna say “ the roof, the roof, the roof is on fire………we don’t need no water, let the mother Effer BURN!!”. MSRP needs to drop roughly $5-$10k from stellantis. Dealer incentives are stupid.
that is still not even close to being reasonable....prices need o drop 20-30k MSRP! But that will never happen because ppl have stupid....and demand SOOO MUCH FANCY CRAP in modern vehicles now days that drives up the price to the state were currently in....you think its cheap to slam that 10" dual touchscreen in the new rams? or all that stupid fancy lexury crap that no one really needs then complain why there vehicles cost 100k
Nope. I still have to buy milk today.
sounds good
They can keep every one of them.
Unbelievable
The floor plan interest expense for those dealers has to be astronomical
Add a ten year payment plan and see if people will hop on lol. Consumers are suckers. Good channel you have. I enjoy your perspective.
There is a sucker born every minute.this can go on indefinitely
Literally insane prices
I agree
You're so spot on! These vehicle prices are ridiculous.
I had a 1997 Wrangler Sahara brand new. Paid $26,000 for it. This is getting ridiculous.
Thanks for sharing and I also had a TJ wrangler a bunch of years ago and bought it 2 years old with 30k and got it for 12 k in the day
Canadian dollars 😂😂😂you should have started with that.
Thanks
They don’t sell what customers actually want. A two door Gladiator priced around $30k would sell like crazy.
I want a diesel with a 6spd
You should do a walk thru at a subaru and mazda dealer to compare.
47k for a jeep compass???
Wtf is going on with these car prices.
We drove grand cherokees for over 20 years. When we could no longer get a V8 grand for under 60 thousand, we walked away. We now have a sedan and are happy with our choice. I will not pay $60 grand for a vehicle. I want to retire someday. The vehicle industry quit selling us on total cost years ago and started selling us on payments. "What payment are you wanting?" They will finance you for a decade if you are willing. The cost of lost buying power and earning compound interest for yourself will keep you broke forever.
The repo lot is backed up right now ,, That's why they can't flush the turds they have in stock 😂
Haha ...I just bought a new jeep for 27, 333
I thought that my Jeep Wrangler was expensive at $29,000. These prices are REDICULOUS for jeeps.
Its downright ridiculous
I just looked at Jeep Wrangler prices at my local CDJR dealer and couldn't believe what they are asking for them. The most expensive was a Rubicon 392 with a MSRP of $100,025, and they had a massive discount of $500 with another $1000 Jeep cash back. I heard people are lined up around the block for a chance to buy it.
Haha that’s what’s causing this price crisis
"We thought after years of shafting the customers they would continue to bend over, who could have seen that they would get fed up of our gouging scams?"
Biggest mistake stellantis has done is chopping the hemi engine and even more the hellcats from the line up which leaves them with nothing but sorry jeeps and humdrum vehicles no one wants
What ever happened to freedom of choice? Incase you didn’t know In The US we have an open market the folks will dictate if these businesses will survive or fail… so be thankful we still live in a place that if you don’t like it you don’t have to buy it…
The CHEROKEE is discontinued. My local dealership, Crown Chrysler/Jeep/RAM/Dodge has no Cherokee's, 300s, Hornets, and Pacifica's. They are a big dealership, that has been around for fifty years in Ventura, California. My recently purchased 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit (Hemi) is flawless, with no complaints about quality.
Exactly they are phasing some vehicles out and the Cherokee does not have the margins that you find on the grand cherokees
@jamesmyers9285 That is also my experience EXACTLY! All the clowns on this string saying Jeeps are junk are either ignorant or just haters. Jeeps ARE overpriced now but they are solid cars - owned 6 Jeep GCs over the last 38 years none of them let me down.
@@Mandolin1944The GC has only been around since 1993.

Typo on my part. I have owned/leased six Grand Cherokee's since 2004. @@WoodgemanX
Well you flood the market with over priced piles of rolling garbage this is what happens. The build quality is total trash.
They should offer 100,000 mile warranty to back their product !
thanks
Yep well said! You nailed it!
Grand Cherokee should be around 40K.
As my Dad would say, "It's the screwing they get for the screwing they gave" Chuck
haha
They should have a class action lawsuit for price gouging and consumer fraud
Hope Stellantis goes out of business for selling overpriced endless money pits rolling piles of junk. 😊
Bonkers pricing! Thanks for the great information. My 2024 TRD Pro 4 runner is a bargain compared to these!
Good choice! Toyota will outlast these 10 fold too
It will also last 25+ worry free years with just regular maintenance.
Wrangler prices are ridiculous….
Hugely
its all about the profit, the more profit the better, the CEO has to eat to.
The four-door Wrangler with the extended chassis defeats the purpose of a Jeep Wrangler in the first place. The long wheel-base makes it useless for serious off-roading.
The longer wheel base helps keep it in a straighter line while going down the road. Plus you have added storage for passengers and BS.
@@AStanton1966While what you say may be true, the longer wheel base still makes it useless for serious off-roading, which is what the Wrangler was originally all about.
@@andrewbird57 I understand, it's about the ground clearance. Except, most Jeeps are mall crawlers.
Fed up yet?! Then vote Republican!💁♀️
100k and 75k for a jeep is absolutely insane. Someone tell the Italians Jeeps were supposed to be cheap transportation, that was easy to repair, and transportation for the Joe's. How the hell do they get off trying to treat Jeep as a luxury brand lol.
It’s out to lunch, really
@@markholubetz I have 2000 Jeep XJ Cherokee, it now has almost 400K org, engine, trans, ect. Knew the day would come I would have to retire it so a few years back I bought another 2000 XJ, rust free for next to nothing and have slowly been bringing that up to almost like new condition, I love it as I can work on it and I slowly acquired lots of parts as well. I will not have new anything as 1. I can't afford it and 2. I can't fix them in my little micro garage shop, if your working on the front you can't get behind it with the door closed, Vis a vis , so a longer vehicle is out anyway. Love the old, cheap, solid Axel XJs with the tractor 6 cyl.I also cannot afford insanely expensive scanners and subscriptions to diag. new cars full of needless computers and touchscreens.
Dealerships are greedy!
That Lot Looks Like My 2 Local Jeep Dealer! Simply Loaded Up With Inventory! Thanks For Your Report! Much Truth To This!
Not enough discounting
