Doing some business. While waiting, I looked at their showroom models. I then spotted this next to the window sticker. When did dealers start this crap? [/img]

Some dealers are charging $10-15K above MSRP for trucks. I have no idea why people are buying them, but apparently they are.

Yeah, dealer markups have been a thing for a long, long time for hot models.

However this a supply issue. Dealers have no way of selling on volume, so they have to milk the few cars they can sell.

I bought a new car back in December. When we started negotiations and I got to a number I liked, I said, now you can take all this shite off and I will 100% buy this car, or you can leave it on there and I’ll do business somewhere else. I did not pay for anything extra.

Biden said he wouldn't raise your "tax rate", not that you wouldn't pay 20-30% more for the goods you bought.

Finally, somebody caught it!!

$40 for nitrogen? $195 locking lug nuts? Who is stealing the wheels off of a Nissan Rouge?
