WE WANT OUT! Car Dealers & Banks SCREWED BUYERS!
In this video, we're talking about how the negative equity crisis could destroy the economy. Dealers charged too much and banks allowed too many bad auto loans. Repos are spiking and people are looking for ways to get out of their car loans.
My name is Brandon and I am a used car dealer. I created Car Questions Answered to share the ins and outs of the used car market from my perspective. I share with you updates on car prices, what's happening at the dealer auctions, and what it's like being a dealer. My goal is to share information to help you make the best decisions while buying a car to save you money. I do not want car dealers taking advantage of you.

Happened to me. Paid 83k for a 2021 gmc Sierra denali 2500 in August of 2022. Sold it in March of 2023 for the highest offer from 6 dealerships of $64k. I had to come out of pocket with 7k just to get out of the loan. I just wanted out. I take full responsibility for my bad decision. Wont happen again tho😎

Oct of 2021 I was in the market for a new F250 crew cab long bed 4wd pickup. EVERY dealer around me wanted msrp plus plus plus and they had a very "F' you take it or leave it" attitude. Someone referred me to Granger Ford in Iowa. I called, explained I had build a new truck on the Ford website and wanted a price. Girl said to email to her, hour later I had a price. MSRP was 63K, Granger price was 58K. Gave the dealer a 1K deposit, copy of my license and insurance, truck was ordered. Dealer took delivery five months later and I was in and out in thirty minutes. I would gladly drive five hours each way to Granger for another vehicle.

You can't stress enough that people who give up these cars are still on the hook for the balance after the auction. You mentioned it, but it needs to be stressed. If you still owe 10k and the auction gets 7k, you still owe 3k and the bank and collectors will still come after you until you file bankruptcy. Then for the next 7 years you will then have to rebuild your credit. You will lose job opportunities and pay more for your insurance, etc. you pay one way or the other. Yes you're right. If customers weren't ignorant enough to buy at those prices, and banks didn't finance it, the dealers wouldn't have been able to fleece Americans 🤷🏻‍♂️

@ericl452 2 ай бұрын

Don't forget the fees that get added on top. In your example, you will owe the $3000 difference between your loan balance and what it auctioned for plus a bunch of fees. The auction proceeds would be the net of what is sold for minus auction fees. There can also be tow fees, storage fees, bank loan fees, lawyer processing fees, etc. You may owe $5000 or more. People would be much better off keeping their car in the best condition possible and selling it on their own. They probably would have to add some money to the deal, but losing $2000, for example, is a lot better than losing $5000 (or more). Your credit won't be destroyed either.

I purchased a used Nissan armada for $6000 cash that needed a lot of work done on the suspension. I brought it in to three local mechanics and a dealership and they pretty much refused to do the work because they said the car wasn’t worth anything. So I paid $1000 for the parts and did the work myself over the weekend at a friends garage. Now I have a beautiful SUV with no payments. It was crazy seeing how much the dealership and the mechanics fought me. When I tried to tell them I wanted to fix this car, everyone of them said I should just go and buy new.

Never take out a loan for a car - great way to keep living paycheck to paycheck.

@sues3218 2 ай бұрын

Correct. I own three cars and I paid cash for every single one. I simply make a car payment into my own savings account. When I need something fixed, I pay cash for the parts and we install them ourselves. If I want another car and find a great deal, I pay cash for it. It helps that we know how to work on cars, could drop in an engine ourselves too. Actually doing it with an LJ Jeep Wrangler at the moment, just cause we wanted a bigger motor. Debt makes you a slave to the lender. A lot easier to weather storms when you are debt free and have a good savings.

He replied,”Do you want to buy the car or not?” We graciously had our exit plan to the front door. My brother n law literally waited until after Covid was over to buy and he saved a considerable amount. If he bought that car, he was going to have negative value by about 50%! Yikes!

Great point I hadn't considered. We all know a new car gets devalued the moment you drive it off the lot. So a 50k car is worth 40k a day later. If you put $0 down then you are already 10k underwater. But when the dealer does a +10k market adjustment, you are 20k underwater on your loan a day after picking up your new car. Good luck trying to stretch an overly complicated turbo driven plastic box with 500 computers past the point of time where that 20k loss evens out. That's like owning and driving it for 20 years instead of 15. And not many of these new cars are even good enough for the 15.

@CarolinaCarolina-ph9mx 2 ай бұрын

It is amazing that so many are willing to spend so much on these vehicles - of which most will begin to have significant problems by the time they reach 100k, and they only go downhill from there, so even more money would need to be thrown at them, or purchase another vehicle. Lots and lots of money spend, but there won't be a penny to show for it at the end, just the receipts from paying out a lot of money to have way to get from one place to another. Given the temporary nature of vehicles, a decent new car should cost no more than $15,000-20,000, and that is plenty for most of us.

Why do I NEED a screen sitting on my dashboard? Why do I NEED heated seats or a heated stirring wheel. Why do I NEED a leather wrapped heated steering wheel ? My fav is the leather wrapped gear knob ! I also love that we are supposed to NEED AWD. Why do I need AWD if I live and work in the city and don't go driving off road ? If you were dumb enough to buy a vehicle that has payments that equal a house payment, then look in the mirror for who else is to blame.

Dealers were able to jack up the price because vehicles were scarce and money was cheap. Manufacturers saw this and wanted their slice of the pie so they made more expensive but more profitable vehicles. What they probably didn't factor in was that money became scarce and rates went thru the roof. It all became a circular firing squad. Those of us that continued to drive our older vehicles are laughing at other people's misery. Not at your misery Brandon. You're just a survivor of the firing squad.

Much like the zero down payment house mortgages for people with poor credit scores who would never be able to pay off their mortgages in 2007-2008. Sure there is an industry apparatus, but banks lending to high risk individuals has direct repercussions. Banks are going to fail because of these poor decisions and because their portfolio of commercial real estate is crashing.

The risk appetite for the lenders is proportional to the difficulty in signing new loans. When nobody wants a loan they have to write more risky loans. When everyone wants to borrow money, the lenders can afford to tighten up a lot. The wave has reversed.

The credit rating system of this country is gone to hell. Banks are too quick to put a ding on your credit report but then refuse to loan a realistic APR if you don't have a 780+ score. What banks are doing now is fixing the books to ONLY sell high interest rate loans again to the same population, so they are always ahead. These equity issues for the banks are non-issues. Their main honeypot is mortgage and corporate real estate. The auto loans are just a dime a dozen.
