What Happens To New Cars That Don't Get SOLD? NEW Reasons 

Thank you very much

Totally right

Start Stop is part of the MPG rating tricks. Same for the aero suttters that give off check engine lights when they break.

HATE, HATE, HATE the auto off feature on my 2021 RAV4. Other than that it’s a great car, but that one feature ruins the new car experience. Stupidest most annoying environmental rule yet.

@@ddjjss - the big negative of it is ALL the added components on the engine, transmission, and electrical / computer system from this one feature.

​@@ddjjssI love that feature lol. It fits my driving style. The people who hate it tend to have an aggressive driving style. They brake a lot, rather than coasting.

Yes that does not make a huge amount of sense

The move towards complexity has been a long slow march, well underway since way before climate politics became the latest whipping bill. In fact we were complaining about how computerized and complex automobiles had become, how they were nearly impossible to repair yourself, and how they were less durable what with the explosion of cheap plastic parts everywhere.. -literally over twenty years ago. . There are two long-term drivers of this long running trend: 1) competition: keeping up with latest features, bells and whistles and max power/performance, and the technology and complexity that comes along with that. 2) managed product lifecycle: manufacturers intentionally designing to shorter expected product lifecycle, increasing the frequency of recurring new sales. This is done by cheapening up many parts, and a million other ways to limit the time vehicles remain economically viable to own. I can tell you the automakers are thrilled that everyone ridiculously believes 'climate politics' to be the villain , when in reality the villain is the manufacturers themselves...

Where are you going for these government lectures? I feel left out.

​@@GannDolph Wow, good explanation, thanks!

​@@GannDolph It's had to be a slow march becausethe globalists don't want to raise too much awareness as they're vilating our natural rights and removing our sovereignty. Climate change is the argument they're using to do it and most of the big corporations have banded together with governments to bring it about. The US is the only bastion of freedom thats able to stop them and bring about their demise and most people on the left are too dum and hateful to recognize how these globalists are lying to them, and just gobble up soundbites as the truth, without doing due diligence and vetting the news clip. Most people are lazy and apathetic when it comes to politics. The World Economic Forum (WEF) and the UN, amongst other organizations, have had public statements released regarding these plans for years and Bill Gates is one of the major billionaire contributors helping to reduce world populations. He even has arrest warrants out for him in foreign nations because of it. There's a reason Russia has warships off of our coast now, in the Carribean. Total world Control is the goal and perpetual war is one of the tools to accomplish this along with mass depopulation; war, famine, disease, pandemics, etc. Make liKe a Boy Scout and BE PREPARED!

Yes the prices are cost prohibitive

Absolutely!

Don't forget the data collection, tracking, and subscriptions that are mandatory or necessary.

All plastics

@@markholubetz Even if prices were "back to normal", whatever that is, people still don't want to buy a troublesome vehicle. So, high prices and lack of quality seem to be the double-edged sword...besides the economy and inflation. What a bad situation!

That would be decent for many huyers

You described unobtanium. Building your own is your only option...have fun!

Ok, I’m with you on the short cab and short box 4x4 . But no options? Nah. Gotta have power steering and brakes and a/c for me, but manual windows and locking are fine. A nice stereo system with actual knobs and buttons would be nice too. With ya in spirit though.

F 150 V8 best option

@@carlito_148 yes but you are stuck with that miserable 10 speed auto transmission. You can’t even get a stick, can you?

That’s awesome great to hear. Congrats on the nice vehicle.

mazdas are great my parents had 2

Which Mazda dealer? I can't get a deal at any Mazda dealer here in Ontario.

omg, that is my next rig! I feel in love on a extended test drive

@@bernie6355 former car salesman. call around. email around. go to another providence. if you can save thouands but have to fly into to pick up the car and drive it home , do it.

I guess he got you to watch the entire video! Thanks for the post, so I don't have to watch it.

Did you watch it at the 17 mark it says where they go.

@@okbc1864 Where?

Cars never sold go to car graveyard and they let it rust and rotten!😡 rather than they sell it for cheap price or donate them to charity. Ridiculous!

Yep, just like the dealers...a bunch of hot air fluff with no payoff. Waste of time watching this

Depreciation doesn't matter to me. I drive 30K+ miles/yr, and I typically hang on to vehicles until corrosion destroys them.

Yes that depends on the type of lot that is but those vehicles could be coming and going to different lots for traces or sales, probably new from factory, among many other destinations.

@markholubetz that's just my point, if the vehicles aren't selling, why are these trucks and trains hauling cars to and from dealerships and from the manufacturer

austin tx off i35 s of austin you stuffed full. evrn have open fields with trucks. dont understand why dont give incentives

mechanical tech could be turbos, superchargers, modern tran like CVT, DCT etc

Electrical is Fine if buying Non Euro or Korean Genesis...Gotta say I honor / appreciate the HUD / info 0n the windshield / in your face.....(never wish to be without this) additionally big plus on surround cameras and safety check / car stops if senses Lil Johnny...JUST buy the Tech on a LEXUS.... and you are gold!

Yes! They don’t do it well in any case! How about this: cut out all the cutesy crapola and make the basic systems bulletproof. Like you used to do. Power windows and locks and the like that last 10 years at least. Switches and windows and door hinges and handles and all the other systems that will just need minor maintenance for years. Build that and we will beat a path to the dealership; if they don’t screw up and gouge us on the prices

@@markholubetzplease take the cvt, turbos and most of what you mentioned and keep it! Except for higher end applications and where dead reliable. By dead reliable I mean for at least 60 per cent of the life of the vehicle or more. It used to be that many engine/trans combinations would last 2 to 300,000 miles without a major problem.

Thanks for the support

That’s a great point. There are always creative ways to try to sell less than desirable vehicles but even with those creative ways, there are still a few that although the cracks

What? You don't like both sides of every mile of road in America being nothing but oceans of identical looking pickup trucks that stretch over the horizon? I love not having walkable downtown anymore because each store is separated by miles of impassible asphalt deserts. I can't wait for the new one they're building next to the one that's been abandoned and empty for ten years thats across the street from the one that was built instead of a row of affordable apartments.

Well that’s just how it used to be. Anyone could work on most any car. Talk to the a-hole manufacturers, they are the jerks withholding the information and computer codes so only they can work on them at greatly increased prices.

Oh and you used to be able to take delivery at the factory but all it saved you was the destination charge.

@@dzhang4459don’t be daft, nobody builds affordable anything anymore.

I hope that sheds some light on the subject

There is an "end of the road" for some of them

Cheers

Yes that’s almost inevitable in this market. Almost the perfect storm

Agreed

I would agree with that

That’s fair and cash is king in this case or a much larger deposit

Wow thanks for sharing, that’s not good

Thanks for sharing

Some won't order to spec. They only will sell off the lot.

@@stevereimer5254 I like Ford for this. As a pickup truck has many different configurations, they never once resisted ordering any of my vehicles from the factory.

Thank you for sharing. Which model and how much did you pay? I know they are pricey

Was it all worthwhile paying soo much for your Jeep? or dream Jeep?

Thanks for sharing

Once it hits the dealers lot the factory is shed of it. It belongs to the dealer, who pays for it by financing it with their floorplanning bank. Every month the dealer has to pay the interest on all of those vehicles. The factory meanwhile just keeps cranking out more vehicles, because if they stop production the unions will go crazy that their workers aren't getting paid. The manufacturer will give some incentives when lots get overfilled, as they are now, but dealers are in a bind. These vehicles that have been sitting for months or even years have cost them a fortune in flooring interest, which right now is between 7% and 10%. Think about that, a $90,000 truck that costs a dealer $80,000, after sitting for 6 months has cost the dealer $4,000 in interest. If they dump it at cost they're still losing money. The dealers around me just aren't cutting deals at all, a $95,000 truck you can get $3,000 off. If you have a trade they'll offer you $15,000 (or more) under what they'll sell it for, because they're so strapped for cash for their interest payments. Plus they are selling cars here, nobody other than the Dodge dealers are not selling a lot of cars. I live in an area with a massive illegal alien population, and banks will finance an illegal even with no drivers license, verifiable income, or credit history if they have enough money down. Every one of these sales is going to be a default within the year, but the banks keep financing them. In many cases they'll never find the vehicle, which is one reason the interest rates here are as high as 20%. But the dealers are rolling cars, that's all that matters!

40k if it's a truck, 35k if it's a SUV, 32k if it's a sedan, $500 bucks if it's a Nissan. I'm also assuming 63k is including a 7k markup due to 'market adjustments'.

@@RichieRich7339 its a bronco ..no mark up msrp

Hi, there a a couple options that come to mind and the first is the outgoing Lexus GX460 (v8) and not the new gx550 as they have those engine issues right now. Infiniti has the large qx80 or the Nissan Armada are the same vehicle as the Infiniti. For incentives the big 3 have the best but the quality is the worst. Steam away from Yukon or Escalade due to quality issues and the Stellantis has the Dodge Durango but they are not well made. The Jeep Wagoneer is an option but a bit pricey too and quality is not as good as the Lexus. For something a slight smaller maybe have a look at the Acura MDX as it’s built better tha. Most of these other vehicles.

@@markholubetz what about cheaper lease deals on something I’m not keeping? Any good screams deals out there I could get? Credit score is 700

Hey I like it. Great idea

Would work for a few hundred cars, but hundreds of thousands, too many cars, it wouldn't be profitable.

That is totally savage

I would NEVER buy a car that's been sitting on the lot for 2 years and never driven.

Thanks a lot for sharing, that’s an interesting proposal and who knows but anything is worth a try

Just try to get proper warranty service or proper setup. Bon chance

@@markvincent5992 try that now tho. Because they all have to get approved or some proof of a failed part. I had to go to 3 different Nissan dealerships just to get a replacement starting battery because while the meter showed 1.2v not 12.0 but 1.2 the Renault computer showed it was a good battery. Finally I found a service writer that got it to fail by using a known faulty battery. And that's not exclusive to Nissan.

Haha

Well said! Yes the great cars are often overpaid for and rarely ever go to the end.

Oh man; you would have been a millionaire right now if you bought and kept that LFA

@@halestrum77 Sadly DUH!..........V 10's Sound Z BEST!

@@donaldbanner2185 it's a whole symphony on wheels 😁

They called it a Ram now as a brand but yes originally it was the model and Dodge is the make as my 2003 can attest.

Sometimes keeping it simple is best

Used cars do but new…..

Thanks

Do you honestly believe people care what you think about video length and RU-vid ads?

Yes that’s a win for the consumer if they figure out the service aspect

@@markholubetz By service, you mean repairs, maintenance, etc? Ya I don't know how good (bad) Tesla service is because I don't own one. If it's bad, hopefully it improves over the next decade when it comes time to get one that meets my requirements.

In 2014 we ordered a Forester (2015) and waited nearly 3 months for delivery. The only way to get a manual trans at that time. Worked for us but would be a problem if you needed it right away.

Yes auction house to get sold....hopefully to another dealer

I agree , there may be more looking at the older Hemis formsure

Yup. I make around $100K from my job. I'm financially independent of needing my job. FICO score is around 800. I'm not buying a new car. At my house, we can machine, weld, 3D print, fabricate, troubleshoot, etc. I'll buy used forever, and just keep them running.

Everybody loves a dentist, lol

Same here. Either that or it has to come very cheap

Yes indeed off to many developing nations too

Or the Mideast and used for military purposes?

What if they have a new Model T? 😊

Agreed, but there always seems to be someone willing to for the right price

If a dealer sold that yr old car at mfsp he woukd still make $$$. Dealers get incentives from mfgs on those yr old cars.

A robust strategy is crucial for any investor's portfolio. When it comes to making high-stakes decisions, the greater the risk, the greater the potential reward, and it's wise to seek guidance from seasoned professionals.

A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.

That does make a lot of sense, unlike us, you seem to have the Market figured out. Who is this coach?

My CFA ’ANGELA LYNN SCHILLING’ , a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.

Thank you for the lead. I searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.

Haha I agree, maybe we can get the collector plates and cheap insurance.

@@markholubetz insurance and cheap never go in the same sentence. Love your content keep up the great work.

They figure it out

Make vinyl decals for the biz

@@markholubetz Rad. So like, I can get a peeing calvin? I want to get a peeing calvin decal showing the brands of the top 5 cars that will not last 5 years. So basically Jeep.

Jeep is living on there past glory, will fail soon.

Quality is key to all of this m. It’s the foundation.

Actually many people I have come across had no idea of any of this detail

Right?

Yes it will

Yep, got to have you hang till 10 minutes, that’s when the algorithm pays the RU-vid influencer

That’s what I am rocking

Haha nice touch
