ZonaPoke Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Hopefully car insurance follows soon too. Renewal rates seem to be going through the roof right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renewal rates seem to be going through the roof right now The number of people that are driving while uninsured has spiked since the pandemic. This is one of the driving factors behind the rise of car insurance rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took my 2019 Jeep in for servicing, the dealership low balled my trade in and tried to get me to buy the same new model in 2022 that was $80k. “Take this model home, enjoy it for three days and then get back to me.” Passed.

FresnoFacts Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Probably lots of used inventory hitting the market. I'm another one who does not bother with spending lots of money on my vehicles. All I need is transportation not status. We have 3 vehicles right now and all paid off. But the newest is 15 years old. As long as the maintenance costs are not higher than replacement costs that works for us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll buy a used truck to pull the boat, only because I want the wife and kid to have the car Incase of emergencies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought a new truck and I settled on Chevrolet. Chevy produces a high power 2.4 liter 4 banger that puts out 300 HP and 400 lb/ft tourque. It was interesting but I went for the old fashioned displacement. 5.3 litre v8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably go with an F150 that’s a couple years old. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
