Apparently, FORD can't seem to sell trucks or SUVs, and the car market is about to get volatile. Whether you're in the market for a new car or just want to know what's going on with the car market, this video is for you! By the time you're done watching, you'll have a better understanding of the Ford F-150 sales problem and what it means for their pricing.
My name is Brandon and I am a used car dealer. I created Car Questions Answered to share the ins and outs of the used car market from my perspective. I share with you updates on car prices, what's happening at the dealer auctions, and what it's like being a dealer.

Guys... this is all planned. Soon the manufacturers will go to selling at MSRP which is EXACTLY what they wanted all along. Then people will act like sheep and actually PAY MSRP. Just a few years ago no one paid MSRP... it was always possible to haggle a few grand or more off. So... thats why prices are ridiculously inflated at the moment... to make MSRP look good!

I think one of the biggest mistakes Ford recently made is the discontinuation of small gas cars this year. Sure, in the short run it makes sense go after the greater markup, but in the long run, it is best to forgo a little product and attract future and regular customers. Not many young people can afford the starting rate of a ford that starts north of 40 grand.

Stout reliable car. 50k miles so far, couple warranty items, wheel bearing and horn in the first few thousand miles, and since then 0 issues. Really a shame they have completely left the economy car market. The Focus, if you have a manual, is kind of a masterpiece.

There was one in particular that's been there for so long that the clear coat on the painted mirrors and door handles was completely shot. It's been baked in the sun for months with clear coat damage because of absurd prices. Others had faded plastic trim and door handles from sitting. That's when you know not only have they been here for awhile but it represents the declining market.

I took my daughter’s car to dealership for complimentary oil change and saw multiple g70 , g80, and other brands of Hyundai cars with used car no warranty stickers on them brand new with 2 to 5 thousand miles for sale right in same lineup as brand new stickered cars for 55 to 70 thousand . You were right about them selling and buying back as used to keep from advertising msrp . No dealer market adjustments but a lot of add on dealer extras up to 6 grand. I’m in Mississippi. Enjoy watching your videos!

Unfortunately I doubt it, dealer lobbies have bought state reps and have insured that this can never happen. Florida Gov who's running for president just blocked direct to customer sales in his state, and dealer lobby's have given him over a quarter milliion in "donations", strange.

wait, they cared at all? talk to any dealership you tell them how you want it and they tell you, "No they don't build it like that you can only have (insert option here) with all the extras." my wife wants the Cross Trek Wilderness to replace her Cross Trek sport, but when she asked for a Turbo (because my Outback Wilderness has on and she likes the feel) they flat out told her you don't need a turbo, it's fine how it is, I told the guy "you know why it needs a turbo?" he said "why?" "because the customer spending the money said so." the wife didn't want it without the turbo and we left the dealership. we still get calls asking if we still wanted the CT Wilderness. the answer is always the same when it comes with a turbo.

I bought a Ford just this week because they came down $2600 off the sticker, honored the rebate to come down even further, and got me on Ford's financing at 2.9% for 60 months. This was NOT, however, an easy process. I spoke to at least 6 Ford dealerships within 500 miles of where I live and had to turn down 5 because they either wouldn't come down off sticker(and some clowns tried to charge me above), or because they would come down off sticker only to add on their own "dealer options" which actually outweighed the discount, so in essence, they were charging above sticker. It was a tedious and frankly disheartening task, but I'm at least satisfied with the result. I was also prepared to push my vehicle search out another 2 months if necessary.

The problem is YOU. You're an enabler, a contributor(!) to the problem. You've got $2.6K off? That's chump change, you were bought off CHEAP with a bowl of lukewarm thin soup. 60 months financing? That's FIVE years and that's nuts. Unfortunately, there are way too many stupids like you out there enabling them to continue this pricing travesty. Your hasty and dumb actions actually hurt others(!) - with less means - financially in the long, run as the manufacturers and dealers don't feel compelled to do reasonable pricing. Don't congratulate yourself. You have my contempt. I was 37 when I resolved never to buy a car again on credit/installment. And I did not. I did not get the cars I really-really would have liked. Instead, I got the cars I could afford(!) to buy for CASH. Some were used, some were new...

The last truck I bought was a 2020 Silverado 1/2 ton that had a sticker of 53,000.00 and paid 42,000.00. I’ll probably not buy another new vehicle, being 73 yo, but if I did they would not get my business at 2,600.00 off sticker.

@@noahdunaway Yeah 2020 was the last year of the old school negotiations. Once the inventory dried up and the supply chain got knackered it all went to crap. The industry is very reluctant to go back to pre pandemic negotiations. But if the economy tanks they might not have a choice. As they will find out the supply/demand relationship works both ways.

I custom ordered a 2021 F150 in 2021. It took about five months to get it because of the semi-conductor shortage. MSRP was just over $58K for the XLT hybrid. I paid $49K. When I showed up to take delivery, there were about ten trucks on the whole enormous lot. I had to travel out of state to buy, which was a hassle, but my local dealer had a $7,500 market adjustment over MSRP. So, yeah -- I'll travel to save $16K on a truck. The dealer where I bought also gave me what I asked for my Fusion trade-in. I doubt I could negotiate a similar deal today, though.

I really feel for all involved, when this crashes there will be a lot of good employees without employment. Due to greedy manufacturers deciding to pay for their EV dreams by raising ICE vehicles to where nobody will buy them. I used to think that car manufacturers knew what they were doing, pretty obvious that they don't!

Trouble is, that there will be a tipping point for EV’s. At that point, they’ll have to be able to build affordable EV’s at a profit. They will need to burn through billions of R&D to get there. Tesla already did that, and was mocked in the press for it (and probably partly because they didn’t advertise in the press).

I have been wondering if the increased sales reported by Ford was an example of channel stuffing. Meaning that Ford was counting a sale when they pushed the vehicle from their factory to the dealership. But, that would not indicate a sale to the consumer. It's interesting that you mentioned fleet sales. I hadn't considered that those would make up a chunk of the sales increases that Ford was reporting or that those are expected to be a temporary boost.

They can't sell or they don't want to sell them?? If they keep marking them up, they don't want to sell them. As an example, Bud Light can't sell them or give them away... Dealers must have a massive deep pockets to pay keep those expensive trucks on their 7-9% floorplans!
