i have so many feelings about this guy. on one hand he says he liked driving the car, but sold it because he didnt want to lose money when he sold it later? Maybe he should just buy what he likes and drive it until he cant afford to keep it going? or just lease things? Or if he has a dealership just take a demo like any other dealership owner does? Maybe he is just too cheap?
To think that Cyber Trash would hold its price is to not know how the automotive market behaves. You take a new car out of the dealership (any car) and you lose 15 to 20% of the price. Now to think that an electric car like the Cyber Trash will become a classic is already insanity.
Tesla keeps doing it. Tesla cuts prices so that buying new is less expensive than a six month old used of the same model. That only accelerates circling the drain for used prices. Moral - never buy a Tesla new.
@@user-ln7of9gs4s No, not jealous here. I have the cash if I wanted a Cybertruck, but I just don’t get a positive vibe. If it were closer to the 40K - 50K sticker price promised, I might take a look at one used. I’d give it another year for the flurry of recalls to die down and for Tesla to get the build quality better.
There are exceptions like what Porsche and Ferrari do with limited availability of special models like the GT3 RS etc and I think a lot of people naively thought the Cyber fridge was going to be like that because of it's uniqueness, over hyped millions of chancer "reservations" and limited production capacity. Anyone with common sense saw this coming though.
9:11 - 10:00 your audio is shameful. You clearly run your youtube business like you do your car business. No long-term plan or thought. Just knee jerk decisions. A few buck spent on an external mic, a few minutes researching a car would make you money. If daddy hadn't given you a HUGe infusion of cash, you'd be working at WalMart or something.
I know right. I have a one owner 16 year old Frigidaire I paid over a grand for new. The finish is as clean as his CT after sitting on the auction lot, the lights, drawers and switches all still work like new. All it needs is a small freon line replaced in the back of it and it'll work like new but nobody will give me anything for it. I don't get it. I should get at least $750 for it. Ran when parked.
What I get confused about is the fact you knock back $84k you want $86k and even at that you’re at a loss of $15k so why not sell it for $84k to that highest bidder ? What’s another $2k on a huge depreciating asset. !
Interesting. I’m not a car guy but it was interesting seeing his reactions through these cybertruck videos; he is exhibiting traits of a gambler. I’m familiar with Stocks and his rollercoaster of emotions is exactly how a typical trader would behave. We pretty clearly see him go through denial (“I can sell it for more”), anger (first time he visited when he got a bid he didn’t like in his earlier video), bargaining (“i just want 85k” and “I have videos which will make it back anyhow”), depression (“6 months and 20k loss”), and acceptance (end of the video where he seems like totally relaxed, given up and accepted the loss). Great content.
He lost about 20% after six months. That is about par for the course for most cars. The one car which surprised me was a Toyota Tacoma SR5 I bought new for about $25K. Twelve years later KBB estimated the private party sale price at $10K. Of course it is now pretty much impossible to buy even the most stripped Tacoma for $25K, so older Tacomas have depreciated slowly.
..."highline luxury supercars"... ...can't keep one Ferrari running...like a car crash in slow motion watching this dude continue to attempt to live above his means...
And I hate to spoil it for everyone, but a couple of months from now he will buy something else and then 4 to 6 months later sell it and complain about how much money he lost. Will everyone still be here in the comment section making the exact same comments???
I don't know. Are people going to say that he's somehow made a wise financial decision because he can write off the loss as a dealer? If so, count on it.
You thought you were going to buy a vehicle BRAND NEW vehicle and NOT sell it for a loss after 6 months ? Maybe you’d be better off selling real estate.

@rockdaddio69 It was in the news a couple of days ago, the base CB at 80k is eligible for the $7500 rebate. The big reason why he had to dump his truck now.
Ditch the iphone, get a Gopro with an external mike. That's the minimum (quality) set-up for content creators, unless they are behind a desk. It's a threefer, you'll get a better picture, far better sound, and the Gopro is quite a bit smaller than an iphone. Currenly, the sound is insufferably horrid and undecipherable in noisy environments, and I'm listening through fairly decent quality speakers (sound bar). FYI: You'll lose money on the Vette also. Vette prices are dropping too, albeit not nearly as fast and bad as EVs are. I'm planning to pick one up after another $8k or so drop. It's coming, toys are hitting the market in surprisingly large numbers here in FL - even compared to a year ago.
It was beyond obvious that the value would go down. Come on man, you are a car dealer you should know this better than anyone. It wasn't even like the market was booming when you bought it.
Stop lying ....we know you depreciated your purchase price on your taxes. After depreciation you barely lost any money especially if its part of your business as a youtuber.
What people don't understand is that even though Craig loses money on nearly every car he really lives from his wifes income......she is the bread-winner in the family.
Kidding aside, I saw a 1980 Datsun 210 Station Wagon on Marketplace for $8500. My parents bought one new for a few grand (can't recall exactly) and it wasn't worth that. 0-60 in 28 seconds, sounded like a chainsaw buzzing at 60 mph, interior disintegrated within the first 5 or 6 years and it had a death wobble thing that would happen. Horrible car, I can't imagine why someone would want to buy one now. Although I guess at least it wasn't known for blowing up in accidents so I guess it had that going for it🙂
@@mikelemoine4267 I grew up in one for a while, IIRC the heater was stuck on and various issues with it all the time, it didn't last long. My parents were not good at chosing cars then. They had a Sierra at one point. Yeah that bad Belgian? Ford one lol.
He probably has dealer insurance that covers everything he puts under the business, so it's a lot cheaper on a per car basis than what normal suckers pay. It's a special suckers rate I suppose!
The final monologue in the video was humble, and a good look for you. I think the CT is going to collapse in value in the next couple years, lots of issues and it is bar none the most hated vehicle on the road. Even here in LA people sneer at them, they were cool for two weeks, now they are yesterdays pop-star. You made the right choice.
Think taking the loss was the right move. The Cybertruck now qualifies for the $7,500 tax credit and they have inventory units in stock. Soon they will have additional discounts on demo units and prices will tank even more.

Great to see you at a auction these past 2 vids. Reminds me of what I fell in love with this channel back when. And while it’s not in NH. The Mclaren AsMartin type cars are more interesting to me.
Selling it was the right move. A 20% loss happens on all new cars the second you drive them off the lot right? At $20k over 6 months that's only $3333.00 a month or $3.07 a mile to drive a Cybertruck. That's not too bad, if that's what you're in to.
I think this - new Cybertruck - will soon be priced at 60K. Or even lower! :) The world is changing. And people will recognize - en masse - what is both useful and entertaining and doesn't pay too much for it. I think this will come to the fore much more now.
You called yourself out in this video “I keep getting attached to these cars” so you know better. BUT, you’ve had a lot of 💩 to deal with and at least now you’re at a start over. Now at least you can focus on profit. Put away that ADD and focus Craig. You know what needs to be done 👊🏻
I do what you do on a much smaller scale.. I do ATV’s, dirt bikes and snowmobiles…. Last season I bought a lemon sled.. didn’t get one ride out of it and took a $1200 loss selling it to a salvage yard.. a few months ago I bought a dirt bike that I can’t ride because I’ve had nothing but problems with it since I got it home and will probably loose money on that too.. so I feel your pain.. I would love to do what you do with cars.. have a dealer plate and go to those auctions and drive some of those cool cars for a while.. beats working a physical job for a living.. I’m looking for another car right now and have to go to a dealer or buy private sale.. would love to get something at auction pricing.. but unfortunately I’m not a dealer.. great video.. and like many others have said… get a headset with a microphone in front of your mouth.
I recognized that mustang instantly. It’s a cheesy mustang but I love it so much. That is the Mustang from the original “Kick ass” movie. I don’t know if it’s a remake, but it’s funny. I got a Mustang that I’ve been building to look identical to that. That would be really cool. If that’s the real one maybe one day I’ll find it seeing that it’s at an auction.

It's a threefer, you'll get a better picture, far better sound, and the Gopro is quite a bit smaller than an iphone. Currenly, the sound is insufferably horrid and undecipherable in noisy environments, and I'm listening through fairly decent quality speakers (sound bar).
FYI: You'll lose money on the Vette also. Vette prices are dropping too, albeit not nearly as fast and bad as EVs are.
I'm planning to pick one up after another $8k or so drop. It's coming, toys are hitting the market in surprisingly large numbers here in FL - even compared to a year ago.
Or at least get a lavalier mic that works with the iPhone
a DJI osmo pocket 3 would be perfect for him.
There's a ton of these CT in Southern California. No one is getting whiplash in looking at them😂
It was beyond obvious that the value would go down. Come on man, you are a car dealer you should know this better than anyone. It wasn't even like the market was booming when you bought it.
he made so many videos talking about it happening too
When will dealers realize EVs are not the way to go? They lose value quickly, especially in this market, and they sit on the lot for 90+ days.
A $20k pill is tough to swallow but a $30k pill would have been worse.
Stop lying ....we know you depreciated your purchase price on your taxes. After depreciation you barely lost any money especially if its part of your business as a youtuber.
Great content, and your humility is what elevates it. Keep up!
Foundation series has FSD included. This is worth at least $8000. Whoever bought your Cybertruck got a good deal. :)
Their value will continue to plummet
06:00 - "I wanna hate it so much, and I love it!" LOL!
Shameless plug, your beardlines are messed up.
Don't quit, keep your head up. The market will change and you will quit losing money.
Thanks for the videos.
MUSTANG Looks to be the same as used in the movie called KICK ASS. Car called Red Mist.
I looked up photos it’s identical! I wonder if it’s it.
@@SpecialAgentDepak From what I've seen on the internet it looks like there were a total of 3 made, so it might be.
Yes somebody else that recognized that mustang from kick-ass
Love your videos !!! HAPPY NEW YEAR .
Your modesty makes this awesome video even more special.
What people don't understand is that even though Craig loses money on nearly every car he really lives from his wifes income......she is the bread-winner in the family.
Craig, you should keep the Cyber Truck. In 40 years, it'll be a collectible like the Pinto and Gremlin are these days! 😂
Kidding aside, I saw a 1980 Datsun 210 Station Wagon on Marketplace for $8500. My parents bought one new for a few grand (can't recall exactly) and it wasn't worth that. 0-60 in 28 seconds, sounded like a chainsaw buzzing at 60 mph, interior disintegrated within the first 5 or 6 years and it had a death wobble thing that would happen. Horrible car, I can't imagine why someone would want to buy one now. Although I guess at least it wasn't known for blowing up in accidents so I guess it had that going for it🙂
It'll be in the junkyard in 5 years. Won't be able to get parts for it, zero aftermarket. It'll be good for scrap weight.
@@mikelemoine4267 I grew up in one for a while, IIRC the heater was stuck on and various issues with it all the time, it didn't last long.
My parents were not good at chosing cars then. They had a Sierra at one point. Yeah that bad Belgian? Ford one lol.
Buy it in 10 years when its already depreciated
I don't understand your way of thinking, but I sure appreciate your passion. Fun to watch from the sidelines.
Craig buying a unit for $100k and selling it two weeks later for $120k is content as well as keeping it 6 months and losinf 20k.
Quit rationalizing.
The Cyber Truck helped you grow your subscriber base and channel, so it was a gain.
So, with insurance, it cost you between 3000 to 4000 per month to have the Cybertruck. Yikes!
He probably has dealer insurance that covers everything he puts under the business, so it's a lot cheaper on a per car basis than what normal suckers pay. It's a special suckers rate I suppose!
The final monologue in the video was humble, and a good look for you. I think the CT is going to collapse in value in the next couple years, lots of issues and it is bar none the most hated vehicle on the road. Even here in LA people sneer at them, they were cool for two weeks, now they are yesterdays pop-star. You made the right choice.
Here We go Crying Wheels
Exactly the crying is getting old. If you want to make money, buy stocks.
Congrats on the sale.
Think taking the loss was the right move. The Cybertruck now qualifies for the $7,500 tax credit and they have inventory units in stock. Soon they will have additional discounts on demo units and prices will tank even more.
Forever grateful this holiday season! 🎄 Mrs. Agnes Peterson completely turned my life around, helping me overcome massive financial debt with just a small investment. Her expertise is unmatched, and I’ll keep sharing her impact with the world.
How does this trading stuff work? am really interested but I just don't know how to go about it. I heard people really make it huge trading
My journey with her started after my best friend got back from New York and saw me suffering in dept then told me about her and how my life could change through her.
Agnes Peterson is the kind of person one needs in his or her life! I got a home, a good wife, and a beautiful daughter. Note!.: this is not a promotion but me trying to make a point that no matter what happens, always have faith and keep living!!
She's an excellent investment advisor. I was privileged to attend some of her seminars, that's how i started my crypto investment
YES!! That's actually her name (Agnes Peterson ) so many people have recommended highly about her and I'm just starting with her😊from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
Isn't she the same Mrs Agnes Peterson that my neighbors are talking about, she has to be a perfect expect for people to talk about her so well.
most cars depreciate 20% right off the lot, so he's right in the ball park at $83,500...but, a $20k loss is a pretty big hit for "most" of us...
THIS GUY MAKE 20K IN cyber truck videos ! Fake news
Good thing you sold Craig; will drop in value even more as u stated
Write off....for sure. Keep Rollin. Remember...500 to a ferrari
This loss doesn’t count 😂
Dood ,I want none of these cars ! Bkz Tomorrow, you'll be broke !, pride and fame - costs $$$$ , Buy an old exotic, something that actually holds it's value,and just slowly appreciates , good video thanks bro 👍👍👍
Ong can’t hear anyone any more on here.
What did you expect Tesla’s business motto is to lower the price of vehicles as much as they can as quickly as they can
I'm still in the 5000 dollar bracket for autos... And no rust mother f*****
Great to see you at a auction these past 2 vids. Reminds me of what I fell in love with this channel back when. And while it’s not in NH. The Mclaren AsMartin type cars are more interesting to me.
A condition report like a yellow ferrari had 😂
Good point
Selling it was the right move. A 20% loss happens on all new cars the second you drive them off the lot right? At $20k over 6 months that's only $3333.00 a month or $3.07 a mile to drive a Cybertruck. That's not too bad, if that's what you're in to.
Add in insurance.
Craig, you are the WORST wholesale dealer alive! The auction condition report needs nothing!!!
I think this - new Cybertruck - will soon be priced at 60K. Or even lower! :)
The world is changing.
And people will recognize - en masse - what is both useful and entertaining and doesn't pay too much for it.
I think this will come to the fore much more now.
So many rich people. America is great 👍
Most dealers aren't rich.! They buy most of the cars on floor plans.
So much debt that even the poor look rich. That's America.
You called yourself out in this video “I keep getting attached to these cars” so you know better. BUT, you’ve had a lot of 💩 to deal with and at least now you’re at a start over. Now at least you can focus on profit. Put away that ADD and focus Craig. You know what needs to be done 👊🏻
I'll say 80 max
That is surely an entirely real assessment, for the last episode and this. Retail....
So, what on earth are we doing here?
I do what you do on a much smaller scale.. I do ATV’s, dirt bikes and snowmobiles…. Last season I bought a lemon sled.. didn’t get one ride out of it and took a $1200 loss selling it to a salvage yard.. a few months ago I bought a dirt bike that I can’t ride because I’ve had nothing but problems with it since I got it home and will probably loose money on that too.. so I feel your pain.. I would love to do what you do with cars.. have a dealer plate and go to those auctions and drive some of those cool cars for a while.. beats working a physical job for a living.. I’m looking for another car right now and have to go to a dealer or buy private sale.. would love to get something at auction pricing.. but unfortunately I’m not a dealer.. great video.. and like many others have said… get a headset with a microphone in front of your mouth.
EV's depreciate more than any ICE car. 40% of EV owners are returning to ICE cars.
I recognized that mustang instantly. It’s a cheesy mustang but I love it so much. That is the Mustang from the original “Kick ass” movie. I don’t know if it’s a remake, but it’s funny. I got a Mustang that I’ve been building to look identical to that. That would be really cool. If that’s the real one maybe one day I’ll find it seeing that it’s at an auction.
Nobody wants to see you walking up and down the aisles talking about other people's deals anymore. Just flip cars already. Came back to laugh at you crying about a condition report
G wagon? Price?
