Toyota has hit record profits while also producing 400k less units which mean they are throttling production in order to create scarcity. So people feel safe buying into toyota because they can drive the piss out of the car and sell it for zero losses.

      Cars are not a necessity like they rave, it’s always been a commercial market gig to sell you a product you don’t really need. This jump of over pricing vehicles was the dumbest push by governments. The vehicles were already expensive and made cheaply. Look how thin a car is compared to 1970? Do you see how they have cheated people all these decades? They got so accustomed that they actually think you became so materialistic that they can now just sell you cheap made vehicles like they are made out of diamonds and gold. Lol ~ cars were never worth the prices they sold them for prior to pandemic they aren’t worth the prices they are selling them now. Just stop buying you don’t need to go broke while these people buy a 10,000 dollar toilet.

    Just bought a new Chevy Colorado last month. I wanted to pay cash, but the dealer said if I finance it with GMAC, he will cut $1000 off the MSRP. He said that I could pay it off right away if I chose to. OK, so I put $25,000 down, then as soon as I got a letter from GMAC with the loan information, I called for a pay off amount. I sent a check for the pay off the next day . Then today my sales person, by mistake sent me a message intended for someone else. He told the buyer that Ally wouldn't do his loan, but GMAC would. Deal was $934/month for 75 months. Buyer was going to pay $20,000 in interest over those 6 plus years. 🤷‍♂

    LTV imaginary at best as the vehicle depreciating the moment it rolls off dealer lot. The depreciation of, “value” of vehicle presently is 60% lower in the first year after purchase. Whether cash from your pocket, cash from bank’s pocket, all sales to the dealer are cash. Dealers make money on back end of sale for selling finance. Recently quoted 4.0 for 60 months through credit union. Credit score 812. With the changes to engines and transmissions, due to government demands for carbon reduction, it’s just smarter to buy an older model and make necessary repairs. Remember when Toyota Tundra was a 8 cylinder not a boosted 6 and had transmissions that were not always hunting for a gear?

Jeep and Dodge had chance to sell me 2 cars but they turned me down.. I wanted buy my son Challeger and myself for Grand Cherokee. I got one Hyndai and one Tesla instead now. Just tired of their non sense and now they have called me a few times said their manager really wants me to come back and talk about it.. I was like No wonder their sales are down. All I wanted was honor their internet prices. They tried to charge $3000 more for each car. I told them I'm not paying more than what they are advartising on their internet and walked out. Wasted my precious 2 hours. Never would go back to Dodge/Jeep/Ram dealerships.

    Working as a new car saleman for the past two month, I'm faced with the frustration of giving a price 6000$ lower then the street value of the car because the used car director is taking a big pading to not sale the cars at a lost. The problem with that is once you give the redicoulously low exchange price to the customer then all the work you have done in your presentation goes down the drain because the customer don't even want to talk to you after that.

    The fact that dealers can charge above MSRP is just criminal.

Perfect example this is the C8 Corvette going for 50 to 100,000 over sticker at the dealer.

    I'm confused. For years I've heard dealerships don't like it when buyers pay the whole price with their own cash, because they don't get any kickback from the bank for bringing in a loan customer... so typically dealers will bring the price down more for a borrowing customer than a cash customer. Now with these fees you're talking about, it seems like the dealers would rather not deal with a bank, they'd rather deal with a customer who has a ton of cash to spend. So is that true? Will dealerships now give better deals to the few customers who can pay cash?

  • @JeffDrake704

    Help me understand...a Buy Fee is paid by the dealer to the bank when a customer finances a car? A friend of mine bought a used car last week for about $17k, paid in cash. The dealer told him that paying cash was not leverage to get the car for a lower price. Was that a lie? If a dealer has to pay a lender a fee to secure the loan, wouldn't that make the price go up?
