Start saving your money, the 2018 Camry...

More Lexus-y

Avalon would be the more tempting Toyota saloon, which is a hard concept to write.

I guess the average price for a car or truck will be 50k in the future. Back to making the Yugo

I'll pass and keep saving my money.

No. That model will sticker somewhere around $35k and be able to bought new around $30k. Took a hard look at the Camry XSE v6 for my wife a year ago. Optioned out pretty much like this new one, and sticker was $32k. Could get it in TX for under $27k.

New car/truck prices are becoming a bubble

It's because financial idiots are perfectly willing to lease them or finance them at stupid terms because they only care about the cost of the monthly payment and not the total cost of the money borrowed.

It doesn't help that the average cost of a vehicle is $30k and that the used market is so overinflated.

That's such one sided. Reliability and quality are so much improved, and that has a cost. Company's have to recoup that R&D. They offer base models if price is your main driver.

Most minivans and 3 row SUV's START at $30k. So it means a lot of families have to shop the used market which often doesn't get a big drop in price until the vehicle is 4-5 years old.
