Anybody thought about ordering a new superduty? The lariat with the gas burner, Is running over 60, guessing the diesel will be all over 70.
 
That's what I was thinking heck is be doing good to get the wt model.
 
So everyone's used junk just went up in value again. Maybe I can sell my 06 2500 Dodge single rear wheel diesel showing 126k for the thirty thousand I gave for it about 8 years ago.

Can't wrap my head around the price tag. Yet you see them all over the road. Including the 2500HD Denali, and Laramie dodges, all $60k+ but guys younger than me ponying up that payment each month. Just nuts.

Now you can't even afford and older one cause it's driving the cost of used trucks up.
 
New truck financing, maybe the next banking bubble to burst......like the housing market credit schemes? I mean really 2 yrs into debt on this huge rolling deprietiated truck....how many are going to walk away? I can see no way for a 2.5 year old truck to retain value against that kind of loan. Most newer stuff seems to barely last its finaced life span anyway.

Don't forget that this is not unidirectional pricing pressure.

Car makers do not sell cars for what it costs them plus some arbitrary margin. They sell them at the price people are willing to pay.

When used prices go sky high because every flat bill chode wants a uselessly lifted truck, then the smart consumer will purchase new based on the value proposition. Over a long enough time span, this actually drives up the price of the new trucks too.

In English is that consumer/ dealer driven truck price inflation...if so that will have a bursting point too....

That is a very good point and makes perfect sense.

I want an LBZ crew cab Duramax but due to white sunglasses and flat bills I will either be buying an older Duramax or a gasser. I can't believe the prices on them. Most I see are teenagered out and ran ragged, or clean unmolested and more than I'm willing to pay.

I really REALLY love the new 6.7 Fords, they ride great, look amazing and tow great. But that price tag is so out of this world. Like mentioned above I don't even think I would buy a base model work truck.

Perhaps if fuel prices went up substantially again that could be the bursting point?

I think it will be more like a bunch of broke idiots with no money left to pays bills and a flooded cheap truck market. Because at this point if your willing to put out that kind of stupid payment plan, fuel price doesn't even hit your radar.

Yep, that would be the downfall.

Once the bottom end of the population becomes unable to support the cost of fuel, then they will be forced to sell. This will drive inventory up and price down.

The key is how quickly the fuel price climbs.
 
So sounds like if I keep saving and wait it out I may turn out pretty good.

Guess it wasn't that long ago everyone was driving huge SUVs and then the bubble burst and they could be had cheap.
But then there's that patience thing I don't have....

After I paid off my 08 Chevy duramax, I vowed never to buy new or near new again. Going to Sylva tomorrow, picking up a 2000 f450 crew 2wd, flatbed, v10, 5 speed, with 170k, for less than half a down payment on a new truck. Now will own 2-f450 'S (2000/2008), one gas- one diesel, 430k combined miles, with only a total 25k invested in both....AND paid for...

Had an issue with the 08 recently. Was talking to a friend with a 2015 dodge Cummins giving me hell. Explained to him, after I spend 3k to fix my truck, I still won't have an $850 month payment for the next 6 years. Of which he does have, with 140k miles on his truck already...

Getting a little off topic but talking about financing for 96 months I got a flyer in the mail the other day you can finance a camper or rv for 240 months. I agree that 96 months is way to long but 240 is insane.
