One GMC stealership in my state is already having issues with lot rot. The paint is in really bad shape on some of their trucks and you can tell by the windows how long they've been there. The windows are so filthy you can't even read the window sticker. Doesn't matter. I know they're overpriced. And the politicians need to stop crying about EVs being "necessary." The two EV pickups on the lot START at a despicable $95,000. Nope, not worth it.
Ford F150s are priced STARTING at $55K in my state and the customer doesn't get a color choice: they're all white with fugly wheels that look like spare tires. Same for the marked to the skies Maverick. That's why the Maverick isn't selling well. They are averaging $5-6K markups. I hope they go under.
That's HALF of the problem. The other half is the BRAND wants to make it impossible. You cannot configure a pickup and delete all that bling such as lane avoidance, backup cameras, fancy but useless digital instrument panels, etc. All that bling is helping drive the price up $5-10,000. Try it. You can't get the truck/car/suv without that garbage and if you add one stinking option, the website forces you to add four extra BS items so that $900 sunroof winds up costing you an unbelievable $5,000 because of the extra stuff "packaged" with it.

What pisses me off is that once all these brands go bankrupt (and they will) our government is going to bail them out. They’re gonna look out for them knowing damn well that these dealerships have been sticking it to us
I believe the company that makes the black widow package are related to the guys that used to do the Southern Comfort packages that had the cool fade paint jobs.
I've wanted a new truck for about 5 years or so. The prices just keep going up and interest rates are ridiculous. I can't afford one unless I went base model and then I don't have enough power to tow my camper.
If you factor in the dealership internal costs for the nitrogen, the door guards and the window tinting, the dealership is probably making about $550 extra per car, and that sticker is on every car.
That Spider Package is totally NUTS and in reality that is not an Upgrade because the Depreciation is going to be faster with that package than if it had been left with all factory OEM.

What you will have then is a tatty $35,000 truck that you can’t get replacement trim pieces for…..
Totally agree with you 👍🏼
What pisses me off is that once all these brands go bankrupt (and they will) our government is going to bail them out. They’re gonna look out for them knowing damn well that these dealerships have been sticking it to us
I believe the company that makes the black widow package are related to the guys that used to do the Southern Comfort packages that had the cool fade paint jobs.
I've wanted a new truck for about 5 years or so. The prices just keep going up and interest rates are ridiculous. I can't afford one unless I went base model and then I don't have enough power to tow my camper.
If you factor in the dealership internal costs for the nitrogen, the door guards and the window tinting, the dealership is probably making about $550 extra per car, and that sticker is on every car.
There's not even 42,000 worth of add-ons😂😂😂 8k at best
I would absolutely buy this.... used - and at a tremendous discount.
Totally ridiculous!
The added insult being a 1500 half ton truck lol
That Spider Package is totally NUTS and in reality that is not an Upgrade because the Depreciation is going to be faster with that package than if it had been left with all factory OEM.
Incredible they want to delete the Malibu
