My 2000 Camry with over 350K still humming along like a yesterday pre-owned used car. Save me a tons of money in 2 decades I owned it. Good enough for me.
Most Americans are broke. Nobody can afford new cars any longer. Rent is high , food is high , cost of living is absurd but your wage doesn't keep up with inflation.
I paid the last payment from a 60 month loan of $757 this past summer………… Toyota calls me EVERYDAY wanting to buy it back and get me in a new tundra……….. I literally tell them are the TRD pros still 70 grand? When they say yes I hang up.
You'd be buying the world's oldest new lemon. After sitting for years, the powertrain is gonna be mostly dry, so expect AT LEAST some bearings to be gone. Also count a new battery and tires, and expect the interior to be crunchy after being slow cooked for that long.
It's just as bad here in Canada. Years ago I had a hard time and didn't make a lot of money but still bought a brand new Mustang in 2015 and still own it today. I need another vehicle and I can't even afford to buy a new one if that makes sense and I make almost double the money I did in 2015. These prices are so ridiculous. You would be a fool to pay them

I bought my 2013 Kia RIo in 2015, lightly used for 8k. I went down the street to a local Kia dealer to look at a Stinger GT and there was a 2013 Rio on the lot for more than what I paid almost ten years ago..........this was last week. Dealers new and used have lost their minds. The Rio on their lot had 50k miles more than I have on mine and they wanted almost as much when it was a brand new car.
I saw an article online that Jeeps were popular until Stallantis took over Jeep and jacked up the price due to their popularity. I saw a youtube short that a guy put down $500 on a lincoln and had a $1000 monthly payment for 84 months. 😂😜
I have yet to actually see a Hornet in person around the metro DFW area. With that said....a brand new 24' Hornet GT are now being sold for 27k at a local dealer.
Just go look at every dealer and see how long their cars have been sitting on their lot. Dodge has cars that have been sitting on their lot for two years now and they’re still calling them brand new. Come on man.
@@PoishPrince100% this. Modern cars have to many issues, dealer service departments have never seen so much work. And unfortunately, local mechanics suffer.

I bought my new Ram 1500 in 2016 and I paid a little more because I has a used car thrown in plus a little cash. I just paid it off with about 330k km”s. I treated her nicely, it’s mine and it will probably last longer than the junk they’re selling right now.
Those jeeps are worth about 25,000 to 30,000 dollars. sheeesh. 50 percent off. they done. those cars have been sitting on the lots for a while. I can't imagine the problems they are going to have not running them. Don't buy. They got to give them away.

People are financing for 6 years and more. This is why they continue to raise their prices. I'll stay with my 2006 Silverado and no payment for 15 years 😆
the problem .people want and only look at repayment costs.so you said the biggest problem.they have no down payment.so repayment costs are now to high for them.Also banks will not lend on full value.They need a margin if all in not well receiving payments.
Was watching college football yesterday and the Dodge Hornet commercial had me dying laughing with the “speed boost” and them driving it on a track like a damn trackhawk 🤣Like this ain’t the audience for that, the people who bought the farming & lawn equipment on the following commercial are not buying that sh*t 😭

Do you want 100,000 or a vechile that cost 100,000 but is only worth less then half with the privilege of maintenance, insurance, gas, and interest? F new vehicle the math doesnt add up.
Our local CJR dealership was one of those stand alone local family owned lots and they had very little new inventory on the lot. Then a regional franchise bought them out about 6 months ago and now the lot is loaded but as I drive by every day, I see very few leaving the lot. They have 5 of those Hornets and probably 8 Compasses and they just sit there. Stellantis is in deep trouble and I doubt Washington under Republican control will bail them out. I think the only moniker that might get saved is if someone wants to save the Jeep brand name.
I would just ask the salesperson “This is a Buy One Get One Free Sale right? Because that’s how they are priced.” 💵🚗🚗 Send them to Saudi, you need to be a sheik to afford these. 👳🏽♂️💰💰
Someone who is willing to spend 40k on a compact SUV definitely wouldn't choose a Hornet. Folks in that market want a reliable family vehicle, Honda and Toyota will naturally be the first place they look. They need those Hornets priced at 30k and below to capture the folks who are more price sensitive.
Why would I want to buy a new car when my s&p etf (Voo) has a 2-year rate of return of: +49.10%….. so instead of giving a stealership 60k I earned 30k on my 60k and now I have 90k…good luck stellantis….
All these Stellantis products require a minimum of $950/month plus full coverage insurance for an 84 month period. That doesn’t include the bad gas mileage so you’re looking at around $1,500 or more a month on just a vehicle. That’s a bad financial commitment for anyone especially with many jobs not guaranteed as your employer might decide to shut down & move.😂
I would sooner buy some 1988/89/90 Fully loaded Chrysler New Yorker for probably less than $4000 if in good operating condition and not rusted out. It will be much cheaper to have a mechanic give it a once over, fix what may need to be fixed and even toss in oh a $2000 paint job. Than buy anything from Ste(a)llantis today.🤔
Mid 40s starting price for a Hornet low 20s starting price on a Trax could probably get a fully loaded Trax for less then a base hornet I know what I’d buy
Dropped off my wife’s paid off 2015 Durango for service today lot was full of everything they can’t sell they didn’t even bother to try and sell me anything 😂
@ when we bought it we got a crazy warranty 999,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty they have replaced the transmission the ac a lot of electronics the front end every time I pull up in that piece of shit they hate it

let them sit. consumers are fed up. forget EVs

There are not enough high paying jobs in the US for anyone to afford new cars, even with $25K discounts.
Got that right

My truck might be older but I haven’t had a payment in 10 years. I could pay these prices in cash but I would rather keep my money.

Good eye I did not see it
That makes a lot more sense. They will screw you in the F&i
How is that even legal? Is it just the price, or they won't sell the car to anyone else? Both seem borderline illegal and super scummy
Yeah I caught that lol…wtffffff

Jeeps suck. Especially the headlights that blind the F out of oncoming traffic.

Fuck oncoming traffic

100%
Truth!!
👍
Yup.
Other people will
Lot Rot, Oh well
That's because. ( High Prices+ Low Quality = No Sale )😊
Someone's buying them. Dealerships are STILL in business, and not dropping prices. So, who's fooling who here??
