  1. I am learning so much! Thank you. Can you do an episode on Mazda? I would like to buy a 2022 CX-5 Turbo. I am seeing big inventory with the prices dropping around $2k around the 20th of the month, then the price moves back up about a week later. Is this all a pricing game?

  2. they cant learn. maverick came out cheap $19,999. big hit, backlog. so instead of making more capacity, they start to raise prices, then dealers added on price. soon nobody gonna buy it. they forgot henry fords ideas. mass produce an inexpensive car, truck. if their trucks were cheaper they would make money in volume. dealers messed ford up

  3. Ironically a lot of us keeping our older cars is working out fine because in most cases they're better quality and less chock-full of high-tech …. much of which is Superfluous and will cost a fortune to repair.

  4. They sold a lot of full-size vans since fleets need them, and many worn out from low supply, so that explains +10%. Dealers want to keep the high prices going, but really?

  5. How many times a week are you going to post HOW BAD the auto industry!! You know not ALL dealers have been crooks, But I guess it gets you views a like's from people that don't work in the industry. Tired of all these You Tube "specialist's" trying to make a buck on this. What would you have done in 2009?

  6. I paid $4500 cash for a Lexus RX300 with 150k miles in 2017. Been driving it problem free for over six years and now has over 218k miles and super reliable and runs like new! There is absolutely no way I would by a new truck these days with the prices they are marked at?!? How are people paying $1000/month for a truck payment plus insurance plus maintenance plus $300-$500/month for gasoline?!? I thought only two percent of the population was wealthy, but around Houston the freeways are flooded with new trucks! The government has to be sending out big welfare checks to people who have children with all kinds of disorders and keep spitting out babies like a Pez dispenser!

  7. I want to hear you say the public is abandoning Toyota so I can get a normal priced 4 runner with kdss. Regardless, I love the relationship you two have. ❤ you should do a random pick for commenters for a discount for coaching. 👈🏼. Start with this face on the left

  8. I abandoned Ford because their product sucks, after 35 years of nothing but Ford trucks, I’ll never buy another Ford as long as I live. Hope they go bankrupt making electric trucks WTF?

  9. They're slacking on production of fleet vehicles. My company has had 120 vehicles on order since the 4th quarter, 2022 and they've delivered 20. Trying to get an answer from them on anticipated delivery dates is futile. They're only interested in the big money trucks.

  10. We just bought a new full size bronco. It’s a hard combo to find without building one. V6 , hardtop , asure grey …paid 53k out the door.
    Super nice vehicle and the wife loves it. Even if she gets tired of it I’ll take it over at some point ….very enjoyable vehicle to drive!

  11. MSRP’s are increasing at an obscene rate. Even though dealers are no getting back to selling at or a bit below sticker, they are raising DOC fees to compensate. In Connecticut, it’s not uncommon to be charged $1299 for DOC and still have “mandatory” charges for VIN etch and ceramic coating. It’s amazing that people are willing to pay way over $1000 per month for a vehicle even when they can’t afford it. The lease on my 2020 Alfa just ended and it would cost over $100 more per month to replace it with something like a Mazda, so I replaced it with a used vehicle.

  12. Any thoughts on price compression between every day vehicles and luxury models? Went from a Ford dealership to a Lexus dealership last Saturday and feel as if Lexus prices are relatively stable compared to the astronomical rise in Ford SUV and truck prices.
