  • It Begins! Dealers Can't Sell These $100,000 Trucks
    Car & Truck lots are filling up and inventory is coming in faster than it is going out.
    Cost Of Living Crisis is a real barrier to people being able to afford a new truck. Increased prices, to trim levels, greed and reason abound are why dealers can't sell these $100,000 and above trucks.

Unless you got the classic bodystyle... you did say LBZ? Because the next bodystyle had the lmm and they were proud of that bodystyle.

    I had to get a bigger truck about six months ago. Ended up with a 2020 ram 3500 with 48k miles on it for 60k$. Tradesman trim package. Still feel like I got screwed on the price. But there was no way I was going for a new one. First home I bought 8 years ago I paid 117k for. No way am I paying that for a damn truck

Feels like its going to fall apart, in my HANDS!" yes, they WERE 20k. And not worth even THAT😅. this is SW Missouri. We drove away in a USED 2016 Acura MDX, off their lot, for that 20k.

    Lets not all forget about all the government required emissions and other stuff that costs the consumers thousands of dollars. A touchy subject is the emissions on diesel engines. All those emissions probably add $10k to $15k easily to the sticker price. Not only are the manufactures driving those prices up but the government is giving them a hand. When a manufacture has to develop a new motor to meet current emissions standards, that expense is passed on to the consumer as well. Our safety standards are nice but those standards add cost to American vehicles compared to overseas vehicles that do not have those standards. I look at the mark-ups as a collaboration between the manufacturer and the government.

    I was worried that I bought a used 18 Ram too early last fall. Few of the used car dealers let me pick their brains a bit and the consensus was that high new prices were keeping the used market from bottoming out since buyers were avoiding new. Still seems to be that way and feel good about my decision.

    The dealers got used to bending over buyers with 30k above MSRP during the pandemic and chip shortage. Now the inventory is piling up again and buyers have options and very little disposable income, so they are be cautious about where and how they spend. All I can say is get ready for huge mark downs like never seen in history come this fall.
