The Website is probably run by the same same people who built CVT transmissions. Not very functional. I never got to the point where I found out how much product I get for that $51 price tag. The site was overdone and couldn’t get to the purchase point without malfunction. Glad you got money from them but their marketing department wasn’t smart enough to get money from me and I seriously wanted to try the product.
I disagree its depends on the age, condition, maintenance, and trim of truck. And what if it’s a diesel? Then it’s definitely worth it if its only has 200k miles.
@@ExpertUA-camCommentator that true for older Toyota’s maybe 15+ years old, these newer Toyotas are junk just like everything else made nowadays unfortunately.
Anyone that believes that, I have a cafe for sale. There is never a single cause to this. Greed is the primary driver behind all of this. When the manufacturers can install a turbocharged 4 or 6 cheaper than what the 8 cost them, and they can sell them for a higher price, what do you think that they are going to do?
If I buy a vehicle for 83k that's worth 35k, I want a guarantee, not a warranty. If it breaks, the dealership pays in full and I get a loaner free of charge while it's being fixed. If it's terminal, I get another one free of charge.
I have a 2015 Toyota Tacoma with the 4.0 V6. It gets awful gas mileage but I sleep well knowing it will never leave me stranded. It still runs like new with 150K on the odometer.
I talked to a dealer (Tennessee) who has an Armada advertised at 47500 (brand new). Asked for out the door price and it was 58K. I said no thanks! Let it rot.
Been trying to get a 3 row suv for 2 weeks now and after contacting more thean 20 dealers, nobody wants to negotiate, they only lie, manipulate and try to lure you in, and when you ask questions they never answer. They only want you to go in and but the vehicle as is with the price they set. They can keep them.
If Toyota wants to bring its' customers back they need to do two things. 1) replace the turbo engines with naturally aspirated old-style engines and 2) drip the ridiculous prices.
Tried to buy a 2023 f350 with 26k miles that was advertised at $1,108 a month with lower credit than what I had but after getting the dealership they wanted over $1,500 I hate trying to buy a vehicle it is such a pain in the ass at every point in the process whether its private or from a dealer.
@ the price was the same for both those payments that’s the BS part, not even going to finance now. I didn't really want to in the first place but they won't even work with me.
They cannot without paying huge carbon offsets. Even CDJR is moving to EV Chargers and Challengers because of CAFE and carbon standards. Unless these things are relaxed, we are stuck with turbo, CVT, start/stop, hybrid-only (like current Camry), etc. And it will get even more complicated as they try to extract tiny bits of extra efficiency from ICE engines.
GM has committed a lot of money toward designing and producing an updated V8 engine. Looks like they will have the serious truck market to itself in the future.
But it’s very expensive to go this route because they have to buy carbon offsets, so that raises the price of the truck. All the manufacturers understand that customers prefer V8 full size trucks and V6 small trucks. It’s just too expensive to keep doing that, so they are hoping customers will come around to the small turbo engines.
Ford Edge is actually really good. Specially after they made a minor revision to the block in 2019 to stop the possible coolant intrusion issue that happened when people drove aggressively. It passes the Moose Test (very hard to do) and I had 0 unscheduled maintenance issues on either my 2017 or 2024 (so far).
With these prices, I have lost the appetite to buy anything. They can keep them. I will fix my car until I can no longer drive it, which probably should be during the next 10 years. Mine is almost 9 years old. Hopefully by then the market would have recovered its sanity.
There's nothing intrinsically wrong with a 6cyl turbo. For example, BMW's B58 is bulletproof. It's just Toyota that screwed up with this line with production issues.
When was the last time you saw toyots sell a new gen taco and tundra sell.for below invoice? Not msrp/sticker but actually a cou9le percentage points under dealer msrp...
@@sommguy1792 Exactly! The Toyota dealerships have always sold at or above sticker price. Rarely around the holidays you'd see commercials advertising $1000 customer cash or some BS like that. If Toyota are starting to offer $5000 to $10000 off sticker, there is a serious problem and it's coming to a head. Toyota never offered these kinds of incentives. Now it's unprecedented to see and honestly needed to happen. Sticker shock took everyone by surprise. I've seen Ford F250 Shelby Editions going for $120k!!! Only way I'd pay that kind of money for a truck is if it's a F550 or F650. We are talking work trucks at that point. Something that you're going to use to bring in money.
Hold Up there @CQA. You said the dealers were taking the brunt of what the manufactures have done over the years.....And you put NO BLAME on the DEALER !!!!! Who do you think you are kidding !?!?!?
I bought a 2020 F150 XLT 5.0 Coyote with the 302A accessory package that they don't even offer anymore at $50,000 MSRP and got it out the door for $47,000, now same truck 4 years later $62,000, Ford is out of their minds!!!!!
To me vehicles are at least 20% above what they should be. When buying a new vehicle it loses 20% as soon as you sign the paperwork, because it's now used. It takes about 3/4 of the loan payments to have equity with minimum deposit. Minimum deposit, and over 5 years loan get GAP INSURANCE WHEN YOU BUY THE VEHICLE. EVEN TESLA IS LOWERING MSRP. IF YOU BOUGHT YOUR VEHICLE EARLIER ARE NOW 20 K UPSIDE DOWN. SAY YOUR CAR IS TOTALLED. THE REGULAR INSURANCE PAYS ABOUT 70% OF VALUE. SO YOUR LEFT PAYING FOR A TOTALLED VEHICLE THAT COULD BE 4 K TO THE LOAN INSTITUTION. GAP INSURANCE WILL COVER THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO YOUR LOAN AMOUNT OWED.
I still think Toyota is still the best bet for buying a car new or used. I bought a brand new 2023 Toyota Corolla AWD Hybrid, and I have no issues yet.
Just bought a 2024 Tiguan se r-line black trim and was able to get it for a very competitive price. However, I did have a trade-in with a lot of positive equity so that definitely makes a big difference. Most people nowadays are upside down on their loans and that’s part of the problem in addition to the dealer asking prices of course
Just drove past a dealership. It's parking area and it's overflow area are packed with cars. That's all the evidence we need to see to know no one is buying.
This $43k median price is not going to cut it no matter what the manager special is. They'll start selling if theyre $30k msrp, they need to stop dragging their feet. Not only that, though, they also need to discount for the year of lot rot.
The new vehicle market has hit the high water mark where most have had enough of the high prices and poor quality. I told my wife at least 10 years ago this was going to happen. I bought my VERY LAST new in 2002 when prices and quality were just starting to get out of hand. I still have this vehicle. No way would I even think about anything new or newer. I only look at used with a hard mechanical eye that are at least 10 years old. These $35K to $100K when new vehicles are dirt cheap and are well worth putting a bit of time and money in. As a note, if what I look at doesn't have a naturally aspirated V-8 or large naturally aspirated V-6 I just move on.
I haven't been to a new car lot since 2002 and just don't care what they have nowadays with those prices. I haven't been to a used car dealer in at least 15 years. I only buy from individuals and only cash sales.
Maybe these manufacturers need a reality check after screwing over the customer's. Don't think America supports another government bail out . Let the auto industry purge itself.
Are we fooling ourselves waiting for a massive market correction? Maybe the new normal is closer to the current prices and not what this junk is really worth.
Brandon, I don't know how all of this will work itself out. I do know that a lot of people are going to get hurt trying to work it all out. Greed, across the board, got us to where we are now, and what is the answer to greed on such a large scale?
Ya, it is like that here, I have two Ford dealers in my town, and both have signs up saying 5000 off inventory and up to 10000 off select models, and you can go to their webpage and see the vehicles marked down. They even have the Mavericks and Rangers marked down.
@@sntstafford it is happing where I am and Just now NHK is reporting out of Japan, Honda and Nissan to finalize merger in June and Mitsubishi motors are also involved.
Bs, what car dealers dont have lawyers to fight the government on this bs? The turbo engine barely does better on mpg. This just another way for the government to keep people poor so they can take over.
They lobbied for those standards to stop start up competition. It was their choice but I am all for shaming the those in office who took the bribe money and tried to tell us it would make the weather gooder
All new cars are full of cheap plastic too. No spare tires and limited storage. All to make them lighter to get better mileage. My new car even has plastic screws everywhere. Government sucks, they are destroying cars because of the mpg mandates.
Thanks for the video. Can you do your review and analysis of car prices at Subaru, Honda, Lexus dealers (and other manufacturers with the best car reliability ratings)?
Car makers aren’t building these smaller engine vehicles because they want to. They’re building them because government threatened them with lower fuel standard regulations. Most of the problems we are seeing with the car market are due to government. Not auto makers.
As a Toyota owner, i wouldn't get rid of my 5.7 V8 for a V6TT hybrid.. I own a 2019 Tundra and i would've paid that 80k for too trim with a V8 with the hybrid system. NO V6, NO turbos.
I own one of these new ones and test drove the previous generation prior to purchasing the new one. One is essentially paying a premium for a better looking car that has more pep and is a sportier more fun car to drive over the previous anemic ones. The increase in price over the previous generation is justified.
Most people lease EVs, so don't worry about the depreciation fallout. There are some decent deals for used EVs. 2025 will be an interesting year for automakers
If you are talking about oversupply, it looks like all the manufacturers overproduced trucks (especially higher trim levels) and overpriced them to boot.
The Edge is discontinued, 2024 is the last model year. Hell, that may be the last one on their lot. Discontinued is part of why it's being discounted that much.
My Toyota dealership had two Camry LE models at MSRP and they didn't last. They have AWD models at $33K and up. It's pretty clear that there is lots of demand for base model Corollas, Camry, Prius. I'm not sure on the RAV4 but nobody seems to want the RAV4 Hybrids these days. Back in 2018, they had more LEs than other trim levels - customers went in and just grabbed the base model with no addons as it was quick, cheap and easy and a no-brainer car to buy. Add-ons and higher trim levels are not what customers want these days. Toyota, come on! I just had a minor repair at my local Meineke dealer to fix something minor for $100 that Toyota would have charged $2,000 for. And my 2012 Camry feels absolutely great. I'm back to just waiting. My dealership sends me an offer for a new Camry LE for $31,500 from $33,500. The 31,500 price includes add-ons. Give me. one for $29,500 and you get my interest. Give me one for $27,500 and the odds are high for a sale. But I could also just stay with my 2012 and 2018 Camrys for the next five years. 2025 Camyrs are all hybrids and I don't know if that's what I want.
I wouldn't buy a turbo engine, they are all having problems. I like the new Subaru Brat, looks good, got bigger, and the boxer engine is good. Can't wait to test drive one.
Was buying a new Land Cruiser. Over heard a sales rep tell a potential buyer that they do not discount siennas and they would have to accept MSRP or look at something else.
Is this worse than 2024? Was looking last Spring and Ford still had 2022's and 23's. The F150's for 2024 didn't ship until late Summer. Stellantis (Ram / Jeep) was in the same position.
If i wanted a turbo v6 id just buy a Ford been doing it since 2011. Atleast Ford gives you options and a v8 along with 3/4 1 ton plus trucks. Tundra is hideous aswell.

My dealership sends me an offer for a new Camry LE for $31,500 from $33,500. The 31,500 price includes add-ons. Give me. one for $29,500 and you get my interest. Give me one for $27,500 and the odds are high for a sale. But I could also just stay with my 2012 and 2018 Camrys for the next five years. 2025 Camyrs are all hybrids and I don't know if that's what I want.
7:06 dang! I bought my 2017 F150 xlt sport fx4 crew cab in race red with the 5.0L with 57k miles on it for $30k in 2021 😂
Isn't the Ford Edge being discontinued? That would hurt sales.
Is the Edge Ford's Hornet?
At 1 point they couldn't keep tacomas in stock in hawaii now they sitting in dealerships
New cars are really expensive in Ireland since covid.
I wouldn't buy a turbo engine, they are all having problems. I like the new Subaru Brat, looks good, got bigger, and the boxer engine is good. Can't wait to test drive one.
Try to find a Toyota sienna
Was buying a new Land Cruiser. Over heard a sales rep tell a potential buyer that they do not discount siennas and they would have to accept MSRP or look at something else.
Lady in my hood has one with 200k miles on it, Runs it like a taxi, drives by about 10 times a day,
People are boycotting car Dealerships because they took advantage of them a few years ago.
Is this worse than 2024? Was looking last Spring and Ford still had 2022's and 23's. The F150's for 2024 didn't ship until late Summer. Stellantis (Ram / Jeep) was in the same position.
gm have 4 cylinder turbo...ford 2.7 3,5, ram 3,0 ...
Going to be getting jeeps and rams for 30 to 40 percent off msrp. They are finally waking up after talking to Trump
Try “Lyfe” mushroom…A LOT better tasting!
I like this guy's vids
Merry Christmas to your family from mine.🎅2024
Merry Christmas to you too!
I think more and more people are keeping their cars for a longer period of time and not buying new cars
Those prices are ridiculous
83 thousand for a truck 🖕 that!!!!
I might buy new, once the wheels fall off what I got. 😂😂
If i wanted a turbo v6 id just buy a Ford been doing it since 2011. Atleast Ford gives you options and a v8 along with 3/4 1 ton plus trucks. Tundra is hideous aswell.
Selling my 2011 Tundra 5.7, 170K miles.
$14k
83k for tundra turbo? I will pass. wonder what a camry is.
The market will reset has no other option
