IT BEGINS! The Truck Market CRASH Of 2024
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 лют 2024
- The truck market is falling off a cliff. Chevy has discounts on almost every new truck. RAM is offering up to 20% off MSRP. Ford is still loaded up with 2023 model trucks. And Toyota is overflowing with 2024 Tundras. The truck market crash of 2024 has just started and the market has already taken a massive dive. Dealers are hurting after a slow month of sales in January and after all the price gouging from dealers the past few years, Truck prices are finally starting to fall. This could be a huge win for truck buyers in 2024 So in this video I'm going to RAM, Toyota, Ford, Nissan (RIP Titan!) and Chevy to see what prices are like, how much inventory they have, and if there are any discounts that make buying a new truck right now... actually worth it!
(i also bought a truck, so If you stay to the end, you'll might just see something really cool)
Check out the truck I just bought!
• I'm Sitting In The BES...
And my list of used trucks that are cheap to buy and maintain!

Increase the price by 35%, than discount it 20% and call it a steal. Sales 101. 🤣
Stellantis raised prices 53% since 2019.
That’s not funny

"then discount it".
Still a total ripoff
Agree
Facts!

How do the average person afford these insane prices
@@jasongreen5470 they get in debt and then complain about it and blame others.... duh...
I can’t imagine spending 70k on a vehicle. I can’t be the only person that doesn’t want a heated steering wheel, bidet, and a 50” tv in my commuter.
LOL
I know. But everyone has one. They use SNAP food benefits at the grocery and have had their student loans forgiven. So you are actually buying a truck it's just not in your driveway.
You'll need a bidet after spending your ass off for a new truck.
Idk where your from but the heated steering wheel might be nice in Minnesota fuck the screen
@@justinzippo7772 from interior Alaska, I agree. The heated steering wheel and seat would be nice for sure at -40°.
But, being able to afford a nice rig without vs a limited with the accessories for 5-7k more… I’ll just dress for the weather.
Just not something I am willing to spend my money on.
74K for a Toyota Tundra TRD Pro and still no recovery hooks...
And a V6
Crazy how the Sr5 cost as much as my TRD Pro back in 2019 🤦🏽♂️
thats only half the price of the ram trx
You gonna put a wittle wadder on your TRD pro?
Who comes up with these prices ?
Simply put, makes everyone run for the asylum...Lock me up... please!!!
I work at the largest dodge/jeep/ram/fiat dealer in the state of iowa. I work in the collision center and we had a big dealership meeting where the gm said they had 55 million dollars in new inventory and are paying 7% interest on them and how they need to sell them hahahaha. Then they sent salesman to go around to all the other employees to try and sell us new vehicles, i straight up told told the salesman if they took 30k off the trucks maybe I’d consider buying one. I remember before covid you could get into a brand new ram crew cab 4x4 for 40-50k now they are 70k+ just 3 years later no wonder they can’t sell shit
How many corroded body Wranglers are yall fixing/painting every month? Lol. They just need to drop the MSRP or give huge discounts. Take the "L" and write off the loss. Dealers got used to low inventory and high prices. Can't try and do the same when you're flooded with inventory. Something has to give.
@@MotorFeed omg don’t even get me started on the wranglers lol just my team does 4-5 wranglers per week, and we got 3 teams in the body shop haha. Sucks you have to take the whole thing apart they get a complete paint job, and only pays about 50 hours to do the job. I hate warranty work. We also do a lot of Pacificas cause the slider doors corrode and hoods corrode too
We replace the doors/ gates/ hinges and hoods on every wrangler lol
We replace the doors/ gates/ hinges and hoods on every wrangler lol
@@RepStLouiswhat's the prob?? Bad paint?
Even with the 20% off it’s still a $60k truck which is insane. I’ll wait thanks
It's the same like black Friday 😂 mark up extra but the regular price is already marked up with the discount
Exactly I was gonna say this. Still fucking expensive as fuck.
Unfortunately we will be waiting a long time and it seems like the car industry is holding out for another bail out.
Ridiculous prices that will never come down.
WISDOM😅😅😅😅
Remember when you could buy a new truck for under $40k with a decent trim? Hell you could get used trucks with 40,000 miles for like $18k only 5-6 years ago.
In my searches, you still can if you're looking for a 2011-2014 2500 hd. The second you hit 2015, it's 30,000 and up. I mean they are way snazzier then the 11-14 but worth that much more? No fricken way.
And the trucks were just a few years old and not 10 , 15 years
50k for a base model F-150 is absurd. That stx should MAX be 32k brand new. I remember back in 2018 when you could pick up a brand new lariat for 36k
The problem with those trucks is that even with a 20% they still 50% OVERPRICED !! 😂
no no no the problem is its not that the truck cost more it that your dollars are worth less... dollars value is relative to the productivity of the population and military strength. Look no further than Afghanistan, Ukraine, Syria, Saudi Arabia/Yemen, Africa for colossal US losses (Via its proxies) on the field... as for production look no further that import exports, US largest export is Porn (services) and recyclable trash
You dont economics well
@@Sticks1680 how so? The market demand for these vehicles is extremely weak, inventory levels are insanely high and interest rates make it impossible to even afford these crappy prices. A crash is coming.
@@BlueInOrangeAgaininterest rates will trigger the real crash like the last 5 cycles when people realize cutting rates doesn't drive any demand because everything is overprice. We never learn.
UAW thinks you are un-American for not wanting to subsidize their $180,000/year assembly line jobs. Ford, GM set the price of the trucks and Toyota, Nissan follow them.
The crumbs that they now refer to as discounts are nothing compared to the previous markups that are now the new MSRP.
They are waiting for the tax return season to end before offering any real discounts.
Ain’t even close to deep discounts. I’m ready to buy, but will continue to wait out the ridiculous prices.
@@russelljones2468 Im gonna wait another year or two I almost bought a Silverado two years agow ent with a little crosstrek instead and been a great little car
The markups are coming from the factory since stupid people paid a ton shit over for shit cars
@@russelljones2468 Same. I'll wait out this crazyness.
This channel comes across my feed with essentially the exact same video title every couple months. It’s been like a year - still 5 figure markups.
I was thinking the same thing!…
Haha I came to comment this
He see where he can say these things about market crash for vehicles he know is a lie, we keep clicking on his videos and he continue. There is no market crash for any vehicle for the last 3 years. Just give a thumbs down on his video and stop feeding into his clickbait.
That’s because he says this stuff for viewsI think. At my dealer (Ford) we can’t keep trucks on the lot. Sometimes we’ll have a base model or two that no one is wanting but typically they’re spoken for before they arrive, ESPECIALLY the high trims. Same for Broncos and high trimmed Mustangs. They’re gone immediately and usually sold before they hit the lot.
I still suffer from sticker shock. My first pickup truck was a seven year old GMC I bought from the GMC dealer used lot. It cost $550. This was paid for with a job at the time that paid twice the minimum wage so I bought the truck with six paychecks. I bought a car around the same time, a seven year old car for seven paychecks. You can understand why I have sticker shock. I miss those times.
@@donsmith2374 I bought my first car after working all summer a 40 hours per week job for $1.65 per hour. Car was a 1963 Nova for $325 from the Chevy dealer used lot. After I bought my car my two paper routes I had was enough to keep me going through the school year with expenses. Thanks for sharing I know the feeling.
My first truck was $1500 lasted me 200k and 400k total. Now I’m in the market for a new truck it’s insane to see these “marked down” prices
@@giovannimora9134Yes. Sticker shock for me too.
Back when cars lasted 8 years
@@VCBird6To who? No highlight.
Dealers keep their metal and I’ll keep my greens. It’s all fair games
Totally agree
I don't need any of that unreliable crap
I'll stick with used deals that I can work with and on
Probably Japanese stuff
@@fil1329 Amen. Your local mechanic can rebuild a 5 speed automatic transmission should it ever require it. These new 10 speed transmissions are a joke. The computer doesn't know when to shift them properly therefore they wear out faster, buyer beware!
@@broox419no your wrong
I can rebuild a manual transmission myself of gind one that lasts forever
And a transfer case that last too....like a gear on gear np205 with no chain
Capeech
You accidentally spelled plastic as metal
yea, you could put engine, trans, rear end everything 2 times over on a decent body vehicle and still Come in cheaper than a new vehicle 😂
I believe the manufacturers would have far less problems selling if they just offered basic trucks without all the frills and a price to reflect it. Sometimes, you just got to get back to basics.
That is what I want
Except my neighbor bought the ultra platinum turbo championship edition so I have to compete with him. Unfortunately most people want the high end whether they need it or not. That's why I can't find a two door anymore which is what I really want.
Eco diesel and the new 6 cyl both with super high dollar automatics add $20 K to the price after all the mandated nonsense and customer brainless needs.
Exactly
Or better yet.. add the things/ comforts people want for a realistic price
I bought my Avalanche new in 2002 for less than $33K and it's still running today. It had it's issues up to 80K miles but since then it's just been mostly regular maintenance. It's dependable and my mechanic can get parts for it all day long. I can see upgrading to another used truck one day but damned if I'm going to spend $50K+ on a new truck unless I win the lottery.
That 22 years ago and you still spent $33k for a truck (not a good deal), what point are you trying to make?
For $20k I can drop a built turnkey LS with drivetrain in my OBS chevy and have a reliable sleeper that doesn't need emissions testing or a distractiontainment system. Plus, even being 25+ years old it's probably still more reliable than new trucks.
Insane prices... The option I love the most on my current truck... "No Payments".
Same here.
100% you drive a 2002 Chevy.

Way too much money for a truck.
Problem is these trucks are designed for office dads in a midlife crisis and not doing actual work.
That's not even true.
@@yellowsnowman9157go to any kids sport in the suburbs and youll see all ram 1500 and f150 crewcabs. Look how tiny the beds are now. Theyre dads minivan
It's absolutely true - no working man's truck has carpet or heated seats - just stuff
Soccer moms and overpaid middle managers want @@yellowsnowman9157
Very much agree and it doesn't help that nearly everything is priced for just the middle class even though they are only like 15% of the population.
@@MrKillswitch88 soon to be less than 15%
Pass. I'll put 10k into my 97 Chevy z71 and have twice the truck as a cheap made 2024 for a fraction of the cost. Not to mention the new trend of a tiny bed because the cab is insanely oversized. Creating a very wierd looking asthetic
Very helpful man, thanks!
I was thinking about buying the TRX, but I decided to buy a small mountain cabin instead. 🤪
Yeah no sh*t. New truck or a good portion of my retirement property? That's a tough one there
Yeah, for that price you can do a whole lot better and invest in an appreciating asset
a new car is not an investment unless its a classic
Knock off at least 50% on the MSRP and I may head to a dealership for a new truck.
if you buy it for 50% off, it will still depreciate 20% in the next few months.
@@mikkinikki1902obviously but 75 to 60 k isn't a discount if those prices were marked up anyways
Probably going to see fire sales at Stellantis soon.
Will never happen unfortunately that’s just wishful thinking
@@mikkinikki1902if you think Covid surging prices where cars went up in price is the norm I have a beachfront property in New Mexico that might interest you.
I remember when my stepdad bought a new 1977 Ford F250 and had a utility bed out on it and the truck was a total of about 6-7000 dollars. About 20 years ago I saw my first $50,000 truck and I laughed with disbelief.
Thank you for the video.
We’re in absolute crazy land regarding vehicle prices. No way this is sustainable. My family income is +200k per year and I wouldn’t even think about buying one of these things. People’s priorities are absolutely screwed up. Nothing is worth those stupid prices. The day of wreckoning is coming.
Same here….im gonna keep my 2018 F150 (bought new factory order) till the wheels fall off
The day of "wreckoning"? I hope that was an intended play on words. If so, nicely done.
$10k...$100k...it still just hauls your azz from point A to point B. A crash is when you buy for 75 percent off bc that's about all those grocery getter trucks are worth.
Amen to that!
Married with no kids and a combined income of $175K in an affordable state "NH" aside from electric and property taxes.
I would never dream of paying 100K for a Bronco or Raptor or TRD or TRX or any of this bullshit. 70K for a jeep wrangler 4Xe lol
At this point i dont want any electronics in the truck. Bring back roll up windows and door locks. Keep the radio ans speakers. Only electronics i need is heat and lights. call it the f2cheap. Model bearbones
Only type I would buy. I hate all this electric crap. Screens for switches is nuts as well.
@@ridbanner1407 dirty hands, gloves or the sun made nobs and buttons the only way. I am with ya all the way

They come standard with all the crap and would charge thousands to make it simple.
Government mandated is a least part of the problem
That’s awesome. I had an ‘03 white tundra with offroad bumper, matching camper and other upgrades and it was awesome. I sold it for $8000 a year ago to save for a down payment on a house.
Great video by the way
I've put around $4000 into a loaded 2003 GMC 1500HD w/ 120,000 miles over the past 2 years. I wouldn't even had considered that just a few years ago. It's a no-brainer in today's truck market. Add a Bluetooth/Android Auto stereo w/ a backup cam for $300, replace some failing pieces inside and out, tune up the 6.0L and keep on going.
Same. Just dropped almost $3.5k in parts to rebuild the front suspension and steering on my 2012 F350. I plan on driving it until it dies.
Remember when the Maverick came out 3 years ago it MSRP started at 20k for base and capped out at 25K for the Lariat? Now a Maverick XLT is in the 31k range lol......
Exactly! Now the Maverick is actually priced in a spot that it's not worth buying anymore since it is priced next to real trucks while it remains a vanity truck.
XLT’s Into the 40’s here in Canada…
@@ImJustKindaHeremaverick is a real truck
30 k for the maverick??? The thing has the wheelbase of a ford Fiesta with a hamster wheel for engine.
Lariats didn't cap out at 25k. That is a lie. Adding the Lux package and AWD/tow/FX4 easily pushed the price up.
Here's where your missing the point. It is NOT 20 % off. It is UP TO 20% OFF. That's a BIG difference. That means they could tell you it's only 5% off or even less. The key words are UP TO.
Facts. Words mean things.

Prices need to come down another 50% before anyone can afford to buy them...
Try like 80 percent then we're talking
Truck and car prices are not coming down ...they will increase 5 K every year for the foreseeable future . The government has inflated away the money supply to compensate for the budget and even if companies didn't need to they ALL inflated their prices for profit margin. . Inflation is now baked into teh market for everything , Food, Cars , Trucks, Everyday items...Its the New Normal
@@stevenphillips3466looks like the dealerships will be sitting on those vehicles for quite awhile.

I purchased a new 2023 Ram 2500 Power Wagon with the option 2 package, sunroof, blind spot detection etc., and the truck MSRP was a ridiculous $83265.00. I brought another dealer offer to my local dealership and they matched it. Reduced the price to 67,265 plus taxes. Even that was crazy for a 3/4 ton, but they also gave me $40,000 for a 2020 Chevy Trail Boss 1500 LT. that was in perfect shape. They have plenty of room to drop the prices....
I purchased a 2022 Power Wagon back in Dec of 2021 . MSRP was $70,800 for level 2 , but no sunroof. I looked at the 2024s not too long ago, and for the same truck they are now $84k.
I LOVE mine though! It’s not a work truck, but can go just about anywhere. And, it has the smoothest ride you will find…
@@kcal6675good to hear. I’m planning on buying a 2500 this summer. I’ve had a 2009 1500 since new and have loved it and wondered if people felt the same about the 2500.
Just bought a Tunrda 5k off TRP. It’s an amazing truck. 24 Platinum. Coming from a 21 F150 Hybrid.
Those prices are insane to me. I bought a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT 10 years ago with 78,000 miles on it for $6.000. I paid it off in about 18 months, and I have been driving it with no monthly payment for about 8.5 years since it was paid off, and it still runs good with 168,000 miles on it. It has the 2.5 four cyl engine with the 5 speed. And it is good on gas, I get 20mpg in the city with it.
I can not even imagine paying $75,000 for a truck, that is more than my Fathers house is worth. He has a 3 bedroom 1 floor 1 bath ranch style house, with a garage and it was valued at $65,000 last year. It is not a mansion, but it is a nice little house for a family with 2 kids.
I can not even see myself going to a bank and asking for a $75,000 loan to buy a truck, that is just crazy to me. The cost of living here is pretty low, and you can get a nice small house for $60,000 to $80,000, so the thought of paying $75,000 for a truck is just madness to me.
I personally would never pay more than $40,000 for a truck, at the most. I got 10 years out of my current truck and it only cost me $6,000.
What state do u live in!?
My parents bought their first house in 1979 for 79k, it’s worth around 515k today, I’m not dropping 80k for a truck that will be worth scrap metal in 40 years!

@@MUSTANGGT12 My Father bought a newer house 2 years ago, not 40 years ago.
The average salary in the USA is $58,000 so are they that insane?
This is how I see it, now is the time for the consumer to dictate how much they are willing to pay for any vehicle. These manufacturers have huge teams that do market research to ser how much consumers are paying. They'll know how low they need to go in order for us to start buying cars again. If everyone would hold the line and not buy at these prices I can almost guarantee you that average prices for trucks would come down to $40k. That's why prices are coming down so slow, they want to see how much they can gouge us for and still make the most profit from us.
Exactly. The consumers have so much power but guess what? Theres people who are loaded that dont care AT ALL and will buy whatever they want. Making it hard for normal people
@lukemarks92 yeah, but let's say 1 out of 10 shoppers are loaded. If everyone banded together and not bought at this price, then all manufacturers would have to drop the prices

My 2000 Toyota Tundra V8 I purchased new and still excellent. I perform all maintenance and it will last me the rest of my life as I am in my early 60s.

I have a 2021 Chevy Silverado LTZ with the 3L Duramax and it is an awesome truck. We tow a 7k camper with it and then I drive it to work. Everyday driving I get 24 to 27 over a tank full and towing it averages around 13 to 17 depending on hills. Ford made a diesel in 2021 but dropped it in fav of the over reving Ecoboost v6. The diesel with the Powerboost would have been a great combination in a truck!
Tundra TRD Pro MSRP Prices in 2017 were $46,010 …an increase of 1% over the previous year. Using this increase adjustment the new truck should only be $50k. The current truck MSRP is 72,130. That’s a 56% increase in MSRP over 7 years.
I think it's because TRD Pro is now a hybrid. Tacoma hybrid is 60k and you cant find one to buy.

@@webeechamin1167 Wage increases certainly don’t match new car price increases.
Last time I bought a new full size 4x4 truck was in 1996 and 1999. Both were extended cabs, but I don't remember even batting an eye at the price of them, pretty sure both were under $20k. I can't even afford these new trucks with the discounts, especially with today's interest rates. I bought a 3 bedroom house with a basement and garage for $49,900 in 1989.
The prices should still be around those areas. As a 28 year old that works his ass off, makes $40 an hour, and still can’t even fathom buying a house or putting myself into debt on a brand new truck, it’s ridiculous. All the things that used to be regular life milestones are now too expensive to even afford. All while wages have stayed the same. I feel bad for my kids because i can only imagine what it will be in another 20 years. Greed runs this world and it makes me sick.
I hope you still have those trucks! Those are REAL trucks and with a bit of work (new/upgraded motor, beefing up for capacity, etc) would compete with these new trucks (probably even beat them on reliability) for way less money. Mid 90s was the end of real trucks for real men.
I bought a 2002 GMC Denali with 4WD -and- 4 wheel steering with 6.2L engine and tow package with tach on dash new for $40K in late 2001. There were few options. It came fully loaded. It was considered an outrageous price for a pickup at the time. It's an adult now -- 21 years old and still going strong. No significant maintenance issues. It has picked up a few minor scrapes. I'm happy with it.
A friend of mine works at a Toyota dealership, he told me that Toyota doesn't allow them to advertise discounts.
Al l good to know ,thanks for sharing 😊
its sad cause the maverick was supposed to be a 20k starting price and i doubt anyone found one for that price.
That was a total SCAM by Ford. Finally saw one on a dealers lot Just a couple of weeks ago for $37K. Keep it!
Mavericks are assembled in Mexico - endless quality issues.
I saw a used 2022 Maverick for $45,000 the other day on marketplace.
Yep, they were to have a starting price for a XL of $19,995 and Lariat base $28,355!
My friend got one for that price. He ordered directly from Ford and had to wait slightly over a year
every week for the last 2 years its been a market crash they cant sell the trucks..yet here we are trucks are 100k seems like they are still selling them
totally agree.. ive been seeing these "market crash" videos for the last few years. I get excited, go check prices, and nothing has changed. So im beginning to understand its just click bait.
@@jshdorsey1974 I just laugh at them and have more coffee.
Here in Georgetown, TX, There's a Ford dealership loaded with 2023 F-150's and a lot are like XL and XLT "demo" models with 1000-1500 miles on them and they are barely discounted. Some are only like $2,000 discount, which is insanity. And remember, this is a 2023 model! These dealers are clinging on to the crazy over priced trucks and they are so greedy, it's maddening.
I bought that same tundra in 2010 for $14k 80,000 miles.
That truck should be $3500 now. Good truck if you can get past no power, 15 mpg , and a 4 speed that has to downshift over an overpass haha.
I don't consider. 2000.00 off a discount. They went up 300% during covid.
F$$k! Little out of touch? My paycheck hasn’t gone up but everything else has. Only one I would be interested is that old truck! 😂 I’ll keep my 2016 Tundra ! Until the wheels fall off! 😮 ❤ the channel!
Amen brother. Wages haven’t gone up. Shit is insane how people put aside a thousand buck for a truck payment 😂
Trump 2024 🎉
Post pandemic I've seen my wages triple, just from being laid off and being hired several times. And everyone I know has either lost their job and gotten rehired at bonkers salaries or, more depressingly, stayed unemployed. Even though I still have that scarcity mindset, an $80K vehicle doesn't seem all that expensive anymore. Still wouldn't buy one, though.
So, you'll replace that '16 Tundra in 15 or so years! Worth holding on to! 😅
Tundra 2012 trd four wheel drive and v-8. I paid 32,000 for it. Still runs like new. No v-8 anymore . I ll keep my Tundra, come on toyota bring back the 5.7.
I bought a new 2023 fully loaded trx last February for $96k out the door and just looked to upgrade to a 24 the other day. There’s no flipping way I’m paying what they’re asking now for the same truck. A $30k difference😮
Imagine if toyota dropped hilux and rav4 prices to 30k as a new car. They would have all the customers.
Let them eat cake!
Amen

Don't buy that over priced crap
I've owned 3 rams and currently do, but if they don't get off of their high horse, I won't own another.
Well right now Ram is cheaper than any other dealers.
Not currently in the pnw. Used trucks are getting reasonable, but new is still pretty wild.
I got rid of my 2007 Ram for a 2018 Silverado a few years back and everyday I miss my old Ram 😭
23 mpg for a diesel ram …. That’s not bad. Thanks for the video
$125,000 for a Pickup Truck? I only paid $90,000 for my house & it has 3 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms & a 2-Car Garage.
$93,000 grand for a 2023 Bronco, those are Bong-Pipe prices, unbelievable.
New truck prices are still insanely high. I felt ripped off when I bought a 2020 4WD used with 40K miles, but in excellent condition 18 months ago, but the same pickup new today is double the price that I paid for the used one. The dealers in my area are not offering any real significant discounts on most new trucks, but their lots are overflowing. The price crash is coming, but is not here yet--it will be. Many new car dealers today are surviving only because of their service department business. One dealer in my area laid off nearly all of their salespeople, but have hired 5 additional mechanics--people are repairing the vehicles that they own and the service department is always backed up 7-10 days on appointments, even with the extra mechanics that they have hired.
Only 7-10 days? Not bad! It’s 3-4 WEEKS for pretty much anything more than oil change at any shop where I live!
Just going to build my next one! Wont be worried about driving it lol.
subbing for the tundra transformation
I typically would buy a new truck, but the prices turned me off, and I paid cash for a used 2014. Thanks to new vehicle makers for changing my thinking, man, is it nice to have no car payment!
unfortunately every year they will be getting Lighter constructed, Forced to cut to make batter gas mileage , Emissions, Hybrids Insane amounts of electronics and computer control . The more complicated the machine the worse the breakdown and reliability . I bought a 2023 Tacoma just because of the last v-6 engine ( 2024's now all 2.5 Turbo 4 cylinder ) . This I think is the last of the best reliable Tacoma's and its probably my last new vehicle because I will be retiring in a few years time and I wont qualify to finance any more vehicles at these prices not working a job. Its my last hurrah buying a New vehicle . Its expensive but all I see is vehicles getting more and more expensive , and more and more complicated , they will not be coming back down in price .
What kind of truck did you get?
@@stevenphillips3466 I just bought a 23 base Tacoma with the 2.7 engine and access cab. No heated seats or fancy crap to wear out in a few years. It sold for 28,500. Love it so far!
@braydonwebb3432 2014 Ford Raptor, paid 11,500.00 in Canada
Not having a payment is way more satisfying than driving a 80k truck. Those people I just laugh at because they are cash poor and dumb
Every auto UA-camr claiming the market is crashing. I don’t see it at all. Sure, there are some slight discounts to be found. But even the used truck market is still raging. Prices have gone up on the used F150s in the last couple months. I’ve been looking for a used 2017 or later Lariat with under 60k miles for months. They are still well above $30k. I seen a couple drop into the high $20s around Christmas. But now back up again. MSRPs up against for 2024. My days of owning decent low mileage vehicles is over. Insurance premiums have tripled for us in Florida in the last five years as well. I’m going to find a beater and just do my own maintenance.
Prices aren’t going to come down without a recession as bad or worse than 2008, at least this is what I think.
In everything since 2020 we keep hearing “prices will have to come down” yet they’re still selling vehicles, houses, etc.
They just going to high prices and low volume vs lower prices and higher volume to stay in business.
If people buy all these things and overextend themselves it may happen again though.
Bought a new tradesman ram in 14 40k after everything.
Got a big horn 6.7 in 21 and gave 63k
That ram you showed, 80k for a big horn is insane
My 2017 full size truck had a sticker of $49k and I was able to talk them down to $32k back in 2017. I know that isn't possible any more, but I would like the MSRPs to come back down to sanity before I buy my next one. The equivalent truck to mine now is MSRP $78k now.
Let those dealerships choke on the inventory especially the ones that were charging over MSRP the last 2 years!! I remember looking for a Tundra in January of 2022 before the iforce max motor was released and 90% of the dealership had markups from 8 to 15k
125,000 on a truck???? unless one is a building contractor ? iwould never put 125,00 on any vehcule it would go on a house. that keeps it values compared to motor or even electric vehicules.
Bought a 2017 Ram Rebel for $42k. Can't come close to touching that with anything these days.
MSRP prices are still way over inflated. In 2017 I bought a brand new Silverado LTZ crew cab for 55k out the door. Same truck now is 70k msrp.
Thanks for another great video! These trucks - waaayyy toooo much! And prices are still going up, like everything else! Even with the high interest rates, and lack of available cash, one would think price increases would slow, but doesn’t look like it!
What I’ve noticed is that the base base price is fine but options really really jack up the price
Buying a 24 Ram 3500 SRW Big Horn HO Cummins, sticker is $77,590 & got $14k off.
This truck has the lowered msrp plus $14k discount.
Fwiw another Ram I was considering had a revised window sticker $7K lower, I downloaded both.
Great review! What is shocking about Ram is across the country you can find NEW 2022 Ram Trucks, roughly 12% of total inventory. On top of that an abundance of 2023's as well. From a business perspective this is asinine. Both the dealers and manufacturers need to discount deeply to find a pricing level to move this inventory.
If you ever worked on the Stellantis (Chrysler) trucks, you'd know why they can't sell the turds. Chrysler changed corporate names to avoid all the lawsuits against them. I love Mopar/Chrysler/Daimler --- 'cause they sent all my kids to college and bought me a lot of toys to keep me smiling all the way to the bank.
You go, Stellantis --- keep up that quality contro!
@@SurferJoe46 AWESOME reply!
I was in the market to replace my 2014 F150 but with the prices I found, I decided I’d keep my old truck and ended up buying me a new Honda Civic SI. I rethought how much I really need a truck in day to day activities and realized I only need my truck 20 percent of the time so buying a daily driver made much more sense. And spent half as much money
Prius FTW
Great idea
Can't go wrong with most Japanese cars
Plus if it manual u can tow a trailer with it
I do it all the time with my cars
@@linh811if u live in the city.....not such a bad idea with regenerative braking
Plus they were the most reliable hybrid car
Man… bought a new Ram 1500… base model power nothing for $15k in 2004… then bought a new F150 Supercrew 4x4 in 2014 for $32k and couldn’t believe I could afford it…. Still driving that truck.. gotta rock it till the wheels fall off
I bought 2016 Chevy Custom, WT double cab, Extended Bed 5.3 for 38,000 in 2021 with 45,00 miles. This year I hit 95,000 still going strong & only 15gs left to pay off I’m fine on anything new for awhile lmaooo
At these prices they should all come with an acre of land and a functioning kitchen and bathroom.
$135k for a Dodge Ram ROFL
L😂L
the advantage of the regular cab is more payload and towing capacity, you forgot to mention.
These prices are still nuts.
Sad to see the direction Ram went. A couple years ago I started shopping around and decided I wasn't going to be an idiot. Driving my 2005 Ram 2500 for 19 years now. Riding on new KO2 tires, shocks, break calipers, break rotors and pads and full tune up.....I'm keeping it for a while longer! close to 20 years of turning back to look at it and thinking WOW that thing is a nice ride! It stands tall and looks way different than the Ram 1500 of it's time.
Yup and still a rolling pile of junk still to this day with Chrysler quality
U just can't compare them to the Japanese quality
Now 1993 and down with a 12 valve cummins manual transmission with and np205 transfer case.....well its a different story and animal 😅
