Car sales plunge as chip shortages choke off supply

Obviously it depends on many factors. 

Right now im working on a 5 year plan to pay off my house. 

I hate loans that people cannot afford , I think its one of the main problems with America. 

I could easily get a loan tmw for a 100k truck but that to me is dumb....never liked leasing either because I like to keep stuff and modify it.... So to me I save cash ans just buy it and work on the next thing. 🤷‍♂️ Works for me and my Wife. 

That's a systemic problem that isn't going to be fixed by individual consumer behavior

Im the complete opposite 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Although my interior is always fucked from 3 kids ..another reason I keep waiting. 

Ya I just don’t give a shit about my daily. I only do the interior when the bondo dust from my work clothes gets to 1/4” on the dash 😂

If the banks didn't do that, nothing would sell and the economy would crash.

It will crash anyway when they cant make the payments ...aka 2008 

If wages had kept pace with productivity, it wouldn't be like that. 

This is why communists say capitalists are their own gravediggers.

Yup that be me 😂  I could care less what it looks like long as it goes a to b and does it cheap. The toys get little more love though.

Yep, but they're nice riding trucks and they're cheap to lease, plenty of power. I got Bluetooth and a backup camera. It's a fucking work truck, not a Sunday driver. 

$600??

Dude I pay 360/month for a crewcab Ram :lol:

Ram still do the 12 mo 10k mi lease? I got my 19 bighorn crew with a 6.5 box not a ez find lol with 9k on it for 30k out the door in 19 with a 5yr warranty.  I was looking at some f150s last week and dealer was offering me 1500 more than I paid for it with 40k more mi on it .

I don't know. I did 3/36k this time. 

I bet I can make at least 5k on this truck if I flip it :lol:

Trouble is, what do I drive then? Hopefully the lease deals come back in 22.

If we get a hint of a nice winter coming with some early snow, what’s out there will be scooped up quick leaving many having to buy what’s left.  That’s why I didn’t dawdle when I found mine.    

 

What did you get?

I bought a 19 Ram 2500 Bighorn a year ago in June with 6500 miles on it for 39500.  Its got around 23000 miles on it now, and i bet I could sell it for more than I paid for it.  Problem is what do I replace it with?

Absolutely. We just bought our ‘19 expedition lease and instantly had 10g+ in equity.  But the chances of finding another are zero. We are keeping it.

Gonna dress it up a bit and change a few things but, I’m curious to see how it compares.

:bc:

 

So it's a 136/7? 

The seat is kinda funky and interesting, not that you're going to be seated for a Sunday drive,but is it comfortable?
