People have taken a huge hit on rents and house prices. A new car is a luxury of you already have another in working condition. The dealers are going to find out over the next 5 years that people can't afford their products.

If I could like this comment more than once, I would.

What's funny as fuck is they are actually destroying themselves as we speak. The people they fucked over with high interest insane car prices; those are the ones they are trying to repo from. Instead of modifying the terms of the loan so the car is actually affordable they are just stealing back cars that turn into clunker pieces of shit. Dealers are actively fucking themselves over by fucking over their clients. A very smart dealer would go back to the manufacturer ask what their profit margin is and work with them to reduce the amount the manufacturer is willing to take. Car makers shouldn't be making cars that cost more than $60,000 unless it goes 0-60 in under 3 seconds and has a top speed of 150 + mph don't sell that shit like it's a super sport, when it's a super piece of crap. Manufacturers fucked over dealerships, dealerships fucked over banks, and the banks rolled all of that fucking over into one stinky pile of crap that they call a consumer loan. It's all a clusterfuck and the only way anything will ever get back on track is if the dealerships help their customers rather than hurt them. The dealerships need to take the hit from the bank and from the manufacturer and fight for their customers, for cheaper rates and an emergency halt on repo's and monthly payments. They need to retroactively offer good deals while they can. They don't need or want the inventory of pissed off customers that are A: going to run from the repo. B: Going to trash the car C: Dealerships are going to have to spend more time energy and money fixing up and re-selling the repo'd cars then it's worth. When it's all said and done they'll find a customer who is going to demand a fair price anyways. They could save a few unecessary steps and just inform the consumer that they are going to get treated right.

The next car that I buy, I get a "buyer adjustment". Karma.

I don’t know, buying a used Mercedes doesn’t compute.

$25k vs 23k? Ur a cheap mofo.

​@davids8267 i don't know much abt the used market for these vehicles care to elaborate brother

@wahikenei0318 in what state are you?

@@davids8267 It does if you cannot purchase a brand new one. I have a 2004 ML350 that I bought in 2013. That car is still running, so it sounds to me like buying a used Mercedes computed quite well.

KZfaq is censoring this: Do you guys have the Ssang Yong Musso or the the LDV T60 range ? Or the GMW Tank 300 or 500? The LDV T60 goes for 26k USD drive away brand new

Shit, I’m looking for a work truck and mofos down here in FL want $10k for a 20 year old banged up, faded paint POS with nearly 300k on the clock and not a straight panel on them. These people are nuts. At that rate, my 87 Camaro must be worth $100k dollars.

maybe it wasn't a good idea in 09 to do cash for clunkers, idk maybe.

@@chancepaladin It wasn't a good idea in 2020 to dump 6 trillion dollars into the economy in less than a year, that's what created the inflation. And the national debt guess who added 8.5 trillion to it?

Just saw a 97 F350 with 250k miles that they wanted $30k for yesterday. They're insane.

@@richardwrynn824 stupid people think a trillion is just a little more than a million.

I'd do it if it was about $10... but any car with that sort of mileage should be given away, only a crazy classic that has been rebuilt should be worth anything after 150,000 miles.

How about a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport with 335,000+ miles that is driven nearly every day?

I bought a 2006 chey tahoe with 172,000 mi on it 7 years ago, sold it last September with 215,000 for 7k. All I added was tires, did plugs, fluids and filters myself and kept it garaged. It was a good vehicle, just had an oil pressure sensor that went bad, needed the usual consumables (light bulbs, a serpentine belt etc.) Itrans and motor were still great, just sold it because we needed a more comfortable minivan. Best GM product I've owned, but I don't trust anything they've made since 2006😬

Still cheaper than buying a 60k-80k new truck. 5-6k for a engine rebuild. Vehicles depreciate, no sense in treating them as investments as if they will increase in value

Lmao never in this lifetime

I wish you would. I would love to see the look on those charlatans faces!!!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Why? You can probably get a brand new leftover 2023 for less than 63k.

You can get a brand new ram for $50k

​@@theewelderI thought I heard them say the airbag was deployed on that Jeep. 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️ That's probably why no one wants it.

Ye when applied correctly they are pretty nice. Somewhat self healing too

the NC DMV randomly decided I moved to a different state and never told me. They are just broken.

@kalef1233 I had the XPel on my wife's Mustang for 6 years, and it still looks good as new.

Not sure if that was PPF or one of those Vinyl Bra’s that used to be popular. Still are in some areas I guess.

I moved from NC because of their dmv. The biggest waste of oxygen to ever exist

Given how much it needs in body and paint work, plus whatever ails it mechanically, $400 seems high. The car is worth far more parted out than it could fetch on a dealer's lot. Seems like it's in the wrong auction/wrong audience.

Usually an Audi this old has already caught in fire by now so this is a rare find.

Couldnt pay me $400. to take it. All Audi’s are money pits.

@@ptw2408 Give me $400 I'd take it, then part it out for profit. You could take the $400 and just give it away to someone else then. Free $400 is free $400.

@@geoffreysmith3196 I would guess the buyer had a working one, and bought it as a parts car.

Way too much! 30k is the max Id consider paying for a truck

Glad California DMV has installed kiosks in many supermarkets that let you complete a lot of business 7x24!

@@williamlloyd3769California doing something right for once

In Minnesota our local office has pre-scheduled appointments now. A lot easier when you know the approximate time you're going to get called, don't have to wait around all day and hope it's not too busy.

@@williamlloyd3769 That's a great idea, at least until someone steals the kiosks for scrap.

So slow or fast

@@rdbjbush FAST!!! You ever seen Italians drive?

I want to see proof the air bags were replaced. Local police tried a new Chevy police car and it had a non accident air bag deployment while the officer was driving it. They have not had anymore Chevys...They switched to all SUVs, mostly Fords.

California and Maryland both have very serviceable DMVs (well, MVA in MD).

Texas was the best one so far for me

My guess is that they all have something in common 🤔

🐒​@@charliecoco2115

florida DMVs are run by each county. my experience has been mostly positive. I got my plates and new DL (moved from VA) during covid in 30 minutes with no appointment.

I was just at Cal DMV yesterday. Had an appointment at 2:10 pm. I was out of there at 2:15. They had 6 or 7 windows open and they were announcing next number at about 1 per minute. No drunk drinking on the job that I noticed.

@@rewing4880 Excellent, give me the address and I'll visit that office! My local office is one of those DEI type offices which serenades the guest who need drivers licenses with loud music of entertainers like 21 Savage, Joey Badass, DaBaby and Jay-Z. I speculate that your office is in a quieter neighborhood?

These worthless government workers would be begging to eat lunch as they continue to work if they were told a computer system was going to take over. Paperwork processors are the most vulnerable to being replaced by computers. If they can't step up their game, maybe they ought to be replaced.

A Wrangler is at least fun. The biggest thing is treating it like it's going to rust rot like a Toyota pickup truck. If you do some DIY rust protection like you must absolutely do to a Toyota truck, you're ahead of the ball.

:)

when you go there they are slow and nobody gives a damn..a certain group of folks run the place and no one is in a hurry

Goobermint “workers” Sound a bit woke to me.🤪🤷🏿‍♂️🙈🌈🤮

@@danparker1976 then the state needs to come in and create order. I'm surprised that you can't make an appointment to make sure you can get in on time especially when it is a crapshoot if you will get in or not since there is only one place to go for that.

@@danparker1976 As the scientist said in the movie "Help!": "The remedy is in your hands. You, the voters!" If you tolerate it, as many people in other states did not, whose fault is that?

I understand in NC, DMW locations are privately owned and operated. They are not NC State facilities\employees. The profit for owning a DMV location is very low as is the pay which translate into a shirt show...

Except for the fact that IL closed most if it's DMV on Saturdays. I can walk in and out to renew my plates in 5 minutes. No appointments are needed for that. Just have to get there before the idiots show up and want to start fights with the workers. LOL

Nevada is the same way. So much better

Try renewing your license during covid. Couldn't get an appointment locally had to drive to Decatur. About 2 hours round trip. Spent more on gas than the license fee. Those ladies at the DMV were so nice.

@@waynechernick3526 That was the easiest license renewal I ever had in 2020. Filled everything out online, issued new license in the mail within 1 week before expiration date.

Most states you can do almost everything online.. who goes to the DMV anymore?

I have definitely ran into some serious crooks posing as car dealers. Good dealers today do not charge you $600 for the air in the tires. That is the most ridiculous scam I have ever heard of. Nitrogen gas is used to preserve poultry and it doesn't preserve tires. You see Nitrogen gas tires $600 you need to find another dealer.

Had an older man sell me his Wrangler, After he face planted gettin out, it happens, (Gettin old)😩🤷🏿‍♂️

is his wife the one that drives every car sold as "driven by old lady"

@@gavnonadoroge3092 a little old lady at the dog park traded her Lincoln sedan for a ford escape for the same reason. I kinda wanted that car- it was a Ford fusion based car but Lincoln got the styling right.

Jeeps hold their value up to 60% even after 5yrs time.. that old man was a fool if he sold for that cheap.

@jauncarlos1970 not a dealer like the design & humvee

Same here in Minnesota, it makes the entire process go smoother when everyone knows when they're going to get called.

You actually CAN in some states. You just need to have a clean record and they reuse your last picture on the ID.

Realistically Wages haven't kept with inflation, but they are most definitely higher than in 2019. So car prices will continue to go down, but probably nowhere near the price that people were paying. 6-8k over the price you would have paid in 2019 will be the norm for cars.

Don't tell me you're another one of those guys saying "I'm not buying another truck until prices drop 50%". I see that comment constantly and they genuinely seem to believe that there's any chance full-size trucks are going to decrease by half.

Or maybe it broke or the headlight seals failed and the owner replaced it? Doesn't always mean the car was in a wreck.

@@dannytavakol285 that's true, but I would inspect the truck to see if there was damage.

Hehe, that's literally what I'm looking for.

A "REAL" small pickup!!! CAFE regs mean we can't get them in the US anymore.

I bought one and 2004 brand new still driving up 351,000 miles later original spark plugs It’s a Toyota 2 Wheel Dr. 5 speed four-cylinder standard cab

years ago had an 86 base model, rwd, no air conditioning, crank windows, great truck and it was cheap!

I'm one of them. I like my Silverado but I don't need a truck that big. If they manage to get a Stout into the USA for under $25K I will get one.

Large, or fat? Big difference!

Fake leather seats falling apart, I am so glad my VW has cloth seats. Not a crack in them

You're thinking like a private sector businessman. That's why you could never function as a government bureaucrat.

For the most part, these aren't state employees. Our DMVs have been privatized and basically turned into businesses where the owners barely have enough employees working so they can squeeze every last dollar out of us that they can.

💯👍😎

Well about half the state troopers are on highway 421 between N Wilkesboro and Boone.

The government is bloated. The politicians are right. If those morbidly obese lazy people at the DMV did anywhere near the amount of work a normal blue collar worker does every day, the DMW in NC would work just fine.

People eat crummy things then don't clean

Good question

I do all my stuff online. WI closed too many DMV locations to bother with in-person stuff.

They used to call them Bras.
