Absolutely true, especially on Ford Raptor Broncos. Ford dealers are putting them in the major collector car auctions and they are going through the roof. I've seen one hit 150k hammer price (10% buyer's premium on top of that).

And try to find some models on dealer lots. I ordered a 2022 Transit beginning of the year. Ford cancelled that in July and my local dealer had to reenter it as a 2023 order immediately. I'm still waiting and likely won't see it until the summer of 2023 which is roughly 1.5 years after my initial order!

New or used, the car market is in turmoil thanks the b.s. over the big covid lie.

Insanity. For a fraction buy a used Bronco and put whatever HP engine you want in it.

And the Covid lie showed the manufacturers that they can keep dealer inventory low so they get the highest price per vehicle possible.
I don’t think we’ll ever see a full lot again.

I do hope this guy is correct though. I need to purchase a used vehicle for my soon to be 16 year old. Well I’ve got 6 months so still a bit.
