It amazes how so many people struggle with the discipline it takes to live within their means. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostynuts Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I,m ready to buy a lot of different stuff at a fair and reasonable price. Anyone know where I can buy a like new, low mileage truck, in Ontario, Canada, at a repo price ? i see all the scam adds, but where can you actally buy a real one ? I talked to my local bank manager, but he says that is all handled by Toronto, which is a PITA to deal with. The vehicles all go off to auction.

That's the problem, few Banks sell repo vehicles by sealed bids. Try all the smaller banks. Most go to auction houses, where only licensed dealers can bid. Possibly you could buy a dealers plate for entrance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainecat Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Worked part time in the early 70’s towing cars overnight during the oil embargo. I must have towed dozens of big old gas’s guzzling burned out cars from the local woods over a summer. Crown Vics, Lincoln’s, Olds Buicks all gas pigs no one wanted. Owners would just torch em for insurance money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve purchased all my vehicles over the last 30 years through a good friend who has an auto brokerage. He deals with a handful of banks off loading repos. Talked to him yesterday about finding a CJ for me. He said that although repos have exploded during the last 6 weeks, most will sell at the usual elevated auction prices. There doesn’t seem to be much end in sight for high auto prices due to new vehicle high prices and shortages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slip them $100. My dad bought every used car that way for years with his dealer buddy. Think the fee back then was $500. Probably run $1000 today though unless it's a good friend. Win, win when done that way. Dealer only floats the cash for a day or two and it never has to sit on his lot. A dealer in town here has been sitting on a used Explorer since last winter. Wants around $27k for it, most expensive car on the lot. Must be killing him to not turn in. The market for big cars and SUVs is getting smaller every day with these gas prices.

We were looking for an Explorer for my wife until I got cold feet with the unknown in the economy, they seemed to be asking plenty for them that's for sure.

My wife's van has about 330,000 miles on it right now. A transmission or major engine repair will be the end of it. We have 3 vehicles so can manage while we shop for something new. One things for certain, consumers have short memories. They buy up all the big vehicles when gas prices are low and as soon as they jump up everyone wants hybrids, electric, and fuel efficient smaller vehicles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just thinking about that the other day as I pulled into the gas station with my beater commuter car. Young kid had a big jacked up diesel truck with all the accessories. Bet he has 80% of his net worth tied up in that pickup truck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
