    Is there a penalty that I can pay to buy sooner than today so I can pre-realize even more of these savings???!

    The dealers that I frequently drive by in my commute have increased inventory in their lots by easily 90%. They went from looking like they were going out of business because only the first row was sparsely full to lots full enough that they couldn't protect them all from hail with their hail guards if a massive storm came. Look at South Pointe Toyota, for example. They haven't had more than a Christmas tree in that dumb tower thing to a lot full of cars and almost back into stocking that silly tower. I've seen an empty GM dealer suddenly clogged with white trucks. A Nissan dealer on death's door suddenly filling their lot and a few in their overflow lot. Honda looking tits up to huge stock.
    The clock is ticking on this nonsense shortage and the only thing prolonging it is leftover fear from dumb new car buyers not seeing the writing on the wall. Same thing with used lots. That House Of Cars thing on MacLeod couldn't be more full if they were stacking cars with a fucking forklift.

    The reckoning is coming.

    Sold the green bronco back to ford in … June? Maybe early July? For over MSRP… been fun watching the price tick down, move locations, go back up… tick down (around what I was originally looking for too, way over MSRP). Still sitting there, still sucking up ad spend on FB… good stuff

    Not to mention at current interest rates the burn rate on vehicles sitting on the lot is not nothing.

    I'd also recommend selling, next week seems like a prime time to maximize.

    Just scanned some used truck prices on Kijiji, still selling 50% over what they would have been 5 years ago. Good times.

    If you don't need it, sell it. Market is too hot for trucks not to sell it.

    Man I would love to get a GSF, if only they had not discontinued that line up. I've always liked that model level. They should have kept the GS and can the ES instead

    Well, you haven't yet heard my thoughts on the best time to buy yet . . . . . (but it's today as well) I will never reveal that secret.

    Buy now before prices get higher. Sell now while prices are at their peak.

    I hate looking at used truck prices because I've sold trucks so low in the past.

    In 2010 I sold a 2005 Dodge 2500 diesel with 120,000km for $19,000. In 2015 I sold a 2010 GMC 2500 with 50,000km for $37,000. A few years later I saw it for sale again on Kijiji with over 200,000km on it and he was asking something over $40,000. In 2019 I sold a 2017 GMC 3500 with 50,000km for $63,000. I keep telling myself that at the time those were the market prices, and I had various reasons for needing to sell them, but all three of those trucks would be worth so much more right now. Also there were 5 more that I sold in that time, but I owned them all so briefly I basically got what I paid back out of them.

    I just remembered, a 2014 ZL1 sold in 2016 with 9000km for $48,000. It was $63,000 new and you can't get one with any miles, let alone low miles, for less than ~$55,000 now.
