In the middle of covid, right at the height of the car shortage, my son totalled my SUV... and the insurance company gave me nearly twice what it was worth before Covid! I couldn’t believe it. Then if that wasn’t lucky enough, I was able to get literally the only car on the new car lot (that just came off the truck) for a deal!

You must be the only person in America getting a “deal” on a new car. That truck it came from didn’t by chance come from an area in Florida that was recently flooded in that hurricane? 🙀🙀
I had a similar experience. Bought a new van in Feb 2021 and the timing was perfect. Covid dropped sales, a historically bad ice/cold snap hit us further depressing sales and the chip shortage hadn’t started affecting supply yet so I was able to get it new for a little over 10K below MSRP.
