Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83640858 Derp Don't forget the women ...we need more emotional decisions made instead of logical sound reasoning backed with facts. Don't forget the women ... are also traditionally fantastic in making decisions about cars, upkeep and mechanical decisions If you don't believe me you're a transphobic omnivore! I've known but a few who would've thought to set aside ... 68 Camaro 68 Mustang 78 Cutlass Citroen Deux Cheveaux or DS BMW Z3 Oldsmobile 442 anything Volvo anything Mercedes among a select number of other cars you can actually make money on Anyway, good luck with all that |

Quoting: Secretizer Empty lots Waiting lists for months to get a new regular car (not EV or luxury). Used cars almost as expensive as new models. “Market Adjustment fees” of 3-4 thousand extra added on. Somebody that needs a car desperately is going to be in for a surprise.

Somebody that needs a car desperately is going to be in for a surprise. nope, not what im seeing FULL LOTS OF NEW CARS at DEALERS, old pensioners buying new cars, no one else. Second hand cars = again full lots, second hand cars standing there for months and months, same crap no one wants at price tag NICE TRY OP. Not buying that. All cars from about 2004 = JUNK new cars total junk 20 000 miles = needs new engine. No joke, no one wants those, the market is flooded with business cars who went bankrupt. and they have high millage and def no one wants those cars, they ready for the junk yard after 5 years. There are no buyers, they dont want expensive JUNK! Well, I personally just found a used car that I could afford, it took almost 5 weeks. Actually, have mechanics in my yard trying to get it road ready. In my area the car situation is insane. People are asking 7-10,000 for cars, SUVs,and trucks with No motor and/or transmission. I am talking older vehicles, too late 90-early 2000"s mostly, some older. I has a 1996 Chevy impala with close to 100,000 miles for 30,000$. It literally took me 5 weeks to find something. |

Have you been living under a rock? Things have been this way for quite a while. What is wrong with you people? Most of us don’t car shop every month. I do it once every 10 years or so otherwise I have no reason to pay attention. |

My daughter and son-in-law ordered two trucks last november. The Toyota Tacoma showed up a few weeks ago in the wrong color, but they took it as they can flip it and make lots of money over retail. His truck hasn't even been built yet and won't be ready maybe until September. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 73112757 United States06/13/2022 06:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ............and whats up with the 1500 dollar destination charge. They are adding so many charges that the car ends up being at least 3000 dollars above MSRP. I had a buddy who was a great car salesman tell me years ago to always state that you would pay 3000 dollars under MSRP and if the dealer didnt agree just walk out the door. Well those days are gone, long gone. |

Quoting: The Don Of Nantucket Destroying an 09 Volvo engine as per SOP for cash for clunkers \ETA...Just listen to the idiot sheep laugh about destroying a perfect Volvo by draining all the oil and running it til it is ruined. I wish it would have thrown a rod and hit that guy in the nuts Yep me too  I take personal offense to this one. Have a first series S80 with a 5 cylinder VW diesel, has 300k km and is just getting started in life Amazing car, built to last a lifetime if people would just take care of them and realize what they're worth Yeah it really pisses me off to see some of the fine vehicles they have on youtube that they just drained the oil and destroyed them. I saw one video of a sweet old Chevy truck and it just breaks your heart to see all those vehicle needlessly ruined. PLATA BITCHEZZZZZZ UPGRADE UNAVAILABLE The Rolling Stones said it best...

Maybe you can buy them as is, and order the chips yourself. Seems stupid to have all those new vehicles sitting in a field somewhere. Last Edited by JustmeTX on 06/13/2022 07:37 PM Justme |

| Gelatinous Mass User ID: 79735739 United States06/13/2022 07:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Love you rich people complaining about car prices. I can only afford sub 4k cars. I work on them myself and old Toyotas can be found for dirt cheap. Sure high mileage but reliable as hell. Parts are plentiful and cheap. Picked up a Scion xa for 2800 and a Previa for 850. 200k and 293k respectively. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75797803 Yup. I purchased a used Camery for $4,000, drove it for close to 300,000 miles. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 81674768 Canada06/13/2022 07:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm returning my leased car 2 years before term (4 years term) next week. They gonna pay the remaining of the lease, the deductible and give me a 5000$ check and they still gonna make a profit selling it. That's how crazy it is. Right now I have very little use of my car and paying 400$ a month for a car I barely use is not worth it. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81065075 were are those cars now?? Ford has 1000’s of vehicles sitting in fields. Problem is that the underbodies are all rusting from the moisture coming up from the ground. Go to a Ford dealership and look for yourself. Most of the new Ford vehicles are connected to the cellular network. All your driving info and locations are being transmitted to a huge Ford data center. If you are looking to buy a ford tell the dealership to disable the cellular data collection. Big brother at its finest. |
