car price predictions

I may be in the market to purchase a new vehicle soon. I know prices for vehicles have been rising stupidly over last couple of years. is that predicted to slow down or even crash down some in relative near future?
i dont need a new car right away, so i can wait it out some.

Biden = high prices. It's a simple equation.

Thanks for that and the links. I'm in the same-ish boat as the OP. My Tundra is still rocking but has 152k miles on it. As of now, I'm not interested in a newer truck, but I'm debating how long I want to drive this truck. Till the wheels come off and it's worth nothing, or trade it in while it's still running properly and I'll get at least something for it. With prices where they are, it'll be till the wheels fall off. But even a year longer isn't an unreasonable timeframe to wait.
I'll also be getting a 3/4 ton and I'm not interested in paying $70k for a vehicle.

Probably prices won't significantly fall until a few months after tax season. A lot of people use their tax rebate money as down-payments

very excited for this...
time for a new ride
Wow that's funny, I have a 2014 Tundra with 140k. Currently can't drive it as the catalytic converters were stolen a month ago and I'm looking at 3-4 months for the OEM replacement.

Car prices won't recede until they are able to glut dealership lots with options.
Now, if domestic makers were smart, they wouldn't do that and instead of giving $15K discounts, they could sell a few less cars and make the same money.

User car prices have been trending way down in last 3 months, waiting still is best option but it's good to see things headed back in the right direction.
Used car pricing graph
Used cars are down almost 6% as a whole in the past 90 days with the average used car transaction price going from $30.6k to $28.8k. Teslas have been hit the hardest going down 15% in last 90 days on the used market.

And less vehicles they get to finance as well.
Dealerships would rather sell more cars.

People who steal catalytic converters should be shot.

Well crap. Toyota has been hit the hardest with the depreciating price.
What's up with Jeep spiking then dropping?

Anyone saying this prior to the Fall was talking out of their arse. Prices had been rising due to chip shortages and supply chain issues. Those have been largely resolved since then, but we're about to see a glut on inventories (both new and used) because of jobs being lost (thus the wait 6-10 months).
The link to the car dealer on Twitter was pretty eye-opening on this as it lays out how lenders are gearing up to make 2nd vehicle loans because they know they will wind up getting vehicles back.

Last week the CEO of GM was saying that there was going to be a very good balance between supply and demand in 2023.

Some lowlifes stole the cats off a church van near here a few months back. They didn’t realize it until they’d loaded up some kids to go on a trip.

Consumers have shown their hands. Dealers now know what buyers are willing to pay and they will absolutely not back off…
