Used car prices have skyrocketed.
We’re turning into Cuba.
Relax Ricky Ricardo, we’re not turning into Cuba. Cars are better. They last longer. So they retain their value better. So people buy less new ones. Supply and demand my friend.....
As someone who has bought and sold repairable.. your not kidding.
Even insurance company total outs are bringing 1000+ bucks on the auction block. And that is a 9-12 year old 150K plus car!
I am working on one right now. a 1997 Nissan Altima GXE. 134K on the clock. Light front end hit (Deer I think) and some mechanical problems. People are lining up to buy the car at $1995.
10 years ago it would have been a 600 dollar car fixed.
600 is what I paid for it before I started repairing it.
