dunno likes kinda strange I remember the fronter or whatever you call the truck they were selling going for 9,999 a few years ago. Now it's up to 14K? How did that happen? Shouldn't it be 6K with 40% off?
The the van looks like a pretty good deal if you needed a van.

Do you think they are just cutting their losses, or are markups on these big trucks and suvs so high that they at least break even or even still make money on a sale?
My understanding is they are. The problem is that in the next year or two the price of trucks and SUVs may drop initially, but my guess is the factories and lots will start making/stocking less and less so if you're going to get a good deal on one it's gonna be in the next year or so. Then you may get stuck paying an even more inflated price.Originally posted by: isekii

Makes sense. They lose money on it every day it sits on the lot. Can't they just send the cars back to the manufacturer though ?
If the dealer can't sell it are they stuck with it ?
