    On this week's episode of RYGTBKM, used cars (especially used EVs) continue to depreciate and Edmunds becomes an unwitting victim; car companies pay WAY TOO MUCH to their CEOs and executives; Lincoln reveals its "interesting" new Continental Coach and Town Car Edition; and Chevy's first Silverado EV will be priced at over $100k with taxes and fees.

    They offered me $450.00 for a 1995 Jeep Wrangler with no rust, new paint, front and rear tow, new tires, new brakes, CB with fire antenna and 4cyl, 5 speed with hard top. Sold it privately for $5,800.00.

      I think this is just another example of exactly how crooked and toxic the entire automobile industry is. Anything to make a buck. And a buck is never enough, they always want more. And they will lie, steal, and cheat, to make more money. Our capitalist economy is destroying us. We no longer worship Almighty God, we only worship the Almighty Dollar. Nothing else matters, only the Almighty dollar.

    Corporations are being run like Airlines. All CEOs care about is their salaries, severance packages, and the stock price. There are very few companies that care about making quality, reliable, and affordable products. CEOs just aim to make a lot of money fast and collect a big severance when they get fired. Look at Disney, Boeing, or any airline.

      CEO’s primary responsibility is to protect stock holder value, actually they have a legal fiduciary duty to protect value. The stockholder and board of directors decide the compensation of the CEO.
      A CEO job is 7/24hour job, they can/will be sued by the stockholders should he/she screw up. CEO’s actually carry liability insurance to protect their assets should they be sued.

      Being in the IT industry myself for over 35 years now, I can attest this is true for 75% of companies. Me personally, I worked all these years on my own company offerings, etc for the long haul. Now those "quick buck" companies want to buy me out, but they don't have the cash as I increased the value of my company to almost 7 million. And it's a really small niche IT industry (don't think "apps" for phones, etc... think mainframe solutions).

    I'm sure if you disassembled the batteries, see what company made them you could find the supplier and re-build the battery pack but the risk to reward with that is not worth it.

Unfortunately my wife wants a new car for the 1st time in her life and she wants the hottest selling RAV4 Hybrid and either we pay that extra cost, buy preowned (of which they add a $499 preowned package lol) or go elsewhere. Called other Toyotas and they noted all dealerships have the flexibility to add addendums to sales & they themselves do something similar. This must speak to their hold on the market right now. They do this because they can.

    What's an optimal age/mileage to sell a used truck? I feel like there is some point where it stops being valued for low mileage / late model. The depreciation charts don't reflect a second dip... but maybe there is a demand dip after a certain point? 75k miles? 7 years? more? ... or is it truly a smooth depreciation?

    I was one of the early reservation holders and I wasn't ready for the car, so I declined the lock order deposit of I believe it was around $5000. I am just so glad that I got out with only $250 loss. Even if it was offered for $10k, it will be a tremendous headache. Let's say something happens to the car that was manufacture error, who's going to represent you in law where there is no defendant? This car's value is not even $0.

    I don't think Carmax is a good place to judge your cars value, when I was selling my 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan with 17k miles on it I offered it to Carmax using their online system since they are over 2 hours away they came in at $19,500 I sold it to a local dealer for $25k, same goes for a 1993 Ford F150 I tried the Carmax thing they offered $900 bucks I sold it on bring a trailer for $10,250 so carmax is only good if you're willing to take a really low offer and you need the cash now.

Now, a few months later, I'd be lucky to get 20k. Lucky I love the car! 10/100 warranty.. why get rid of it? It looks better and is faster than most cars out there. :)

    In my opinion, there was a time many years ago when KBB and Edmunds were great sources of honest, INDEPENDENT, information about market values in the industry for both wholesale and retail. Then they sold their souls to the manufacturers and the dealer network. In my opinion, KBB and Edmunds have become tools used by the industry to screw the customers. I believe it has lead to false values for vehicles (way to low wholesale and way to high for retail. But then, what else would you expect from one of the crookedest industries in our economy? I also think that Ray and Zach are part of the problem. First of all, their endgame is to sell car edge to Cox automotive or some other buyer and become fabulously wealthy. When Car edge either becomes fabulously profitable or starts to hurt Cox automotive, or one of the other companies in the industry, they will get bought out. But what really irritated me about Ray and Zach was their pricing of extended car warranty’s. They price them at “only“ $500 over. They added no value but thought it was OK to gouge their viewers and subscribers by charging them $500 over. This is the kind of greed, the unbridled greed, that pervades this entire industry. It’s disgusting.

Also, if I decided to spend that kind of money on a car, I probably buy Lexus rather than a Ford or a Dodge simply as they last a lot longer (been the BMW route and won’t go there again).

    I don't trust car dealers. Haven't since 2006 when I tried to buy a (then) brand new 2006 Honda Civic (the eighth generation design that had just come out). I wanted to start the financing process, but the sales guy comes back out and tells me that my credit wasn't good enough for the brand new $15,000 car, but that I could get a used model (the older seventh generation design 2005 Civic). I was suspicious, and I told them no as there was paint damage and I wasn't interested in the older design. Turns out what really happened was they had one 2006 Civic on the lot, and they sold it while I was doing up the paperwork. Rather than tell me they sold the car and they could get another one later that week or whatever, they lied to me and told me my credit wasn't good enough, because later that day, I went down the street to the Toyota dealership and bought a brand new 2006 Corolla S with no problems at all.
