      Paid the difference in cash.
      ...
      I can afford a mini truck.
      I didn't pay anywhere near $65k for my Scat. GM is smoking something great if they think I'll pay that for a Colorado.

      I do need, and have a truck.
      It's a '99 Silverado 4x4 with 125k on it. I paid $2500 for it.

      @ Congrats to your financial success, I suggest come back to reality and understand the abject stupidity of your original comment then as you clearly are too smart to actually believe what you are saying. Once again trucks with far less to offer in every conceivable way were more than 30k nearly 20 years ago. The Colorado Z71 is 42k fully loaded, a very manageable price for a work vehicle. At least a ton of companies believe so as I see them everywhere.

I then realized that any cars of interest were kept locked, and it was a real effort to get it unlocked, by sales people rolling their eyes if asked to open it. Keeping the riff raff away was the intention. Every year, more and more cars were kept locked. The second thing was, the dealers had the audacity to demand $20 to enter a venue to view cars they want me to buy from them.

    We can debate about how much manufacturer's greed in in the price points nowadays, but while doing that it's dishonest to not mention the cost of labor nowadays. Nearly everyone supports the UAW when they're striking but the money & benefits they demand costs us end consumers money, not the maker. I recently toured the BMW factory in SC & didn't see a single human employee working on the lines coming anywhere near breaking a sweat.
    I've abandoned having a truck in my stable & pretty much am on the brink of eliminating anything bigger than a subcompact SUV. I will rent a truck when I need one. Trucks & mid/large SUV prices are completely insane.
