They adopted a business model that needed only 17% of the automotive market to work. And it did for 2+ years. If they want the mainstream of the other 83% back in the market, they will have to build quality vehicles their customer base wants and can afford. That is how capitalism works. When the Government tells the public what they will be allowed to choose from and manipulates the market on pricing, this is how socialism works. A perfect example is the Government force feeding EVs onto an unwilling market at too high of cost and actually blocking the necessary infrastructure improvements necessary to support them.

Odds are pretty good all of this will happen.

We have massive fully scaled up global production that makes everything that goes into a car the cheapest it has ever been, but even modest sedans are pushing 30K. My civic brand new is north of 25K, and that isn’t even for an SI. I can’t imagine what an electric version would go for knowing what the ICE version costs, not that I want an electric car in the slightest, but it’s just the thought. It’s crazy price gouging, mostly by the dealers themselves but also by the manufacturers cranking up their own pricing. I get the coof slowed and disrupted things, but that has been gone for so long now we should be back at it, but then we also have to remember that pricing never comes down even if conditions return to normal.

When I was shipping for my new Jeep in 2022, The Rubicons were vastly overpriced compared to the other versions. They must add a premium just for the Rubicon name. I ordered the basic, basic Jeep Wrangler Sport (not Sport S, or any of the other crap), added the 3-piece hard top and a couple small additions and it cost me $39,115. When adding in the delivery fee, tax, etc the total ended up being $43k. My previous vehicle was a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Classic which I bought new in 2001 for $26k. Factoring in inflation between 2001 and 2022, that $26k would be about $43k in 2022 dollars, so I felt the price was equitable to what I had paid for my previous Jeep. But prices now have gotten way out of control.

If they built better vehicles, they wouldn't have to worry!! Who wants a high price piece of crap?

Built better or not - Still way too expensive.

No basic vehicle should cost more than $15,000. That anyone is dumb enough to pay $125,000 is why they cost that much.

That’s a false equivalency. You’re comparing a top tier toy truck that’s a beast of a truck and quite capable Offroad to a “basic vehicle.” If you want to make a comparison, use a basic vehicle such as a tradesman 2wd gasser. Then you’d have a point because even those are overpriced. Hell, the 2 door 4x4 tradesman Cummins they had shown in the video is insane pricing. I’d gladly drop another 30k and get the bee’s knees 5500 limited and have all the bells and whistles than drop 70k for what is essentially a tarp with a bucket to sit on 😆

I would rather have a used Toyota 4 wheel drive truck with 200,000 miles on it any day of the year.

Not even a fully loaded jeep should coat more than 25k. No pickup should ever cost more than 35k even if its a 1 ton diesel. This is disgusting.

Prices of products are not directly tied to employee pay, In Europe workers are paid more and yet their products are on par with US counterparts. The fact that Car companies gave workers a 15% raise and then doubled the price of the cars isnt the workers fault, and yet here you are attacking fellow workers.

I’ve owned 6 Wranglers since 1996 (also owned VW’s, MINI’s, BMW, a 4Runner, pathfinder. And a few others) and paid 17k for a brand new Wrangler back then. They’ve went up over the years but nothing like they have in the past 4 years. My 2020 Rubicon was 53K MRSP but walked out paying 48.5 out the door. A 2024 Rubicon, similarly equipped, has an MSRP of over 67k. They’re crazy.

DONT forget, the new vehicles now, you cant even scan them without having a subscription to their network. We need "the right to work on our vehicles" law in effect asap. Im a dodge guy and theyre pricing themselves out and their quality has gone down.

That chick that showed how dusty the cars on the lot were, literally scratched that clear coat all up by dragging her finger across the hood 😂 feel bad whoever buys that

OVERPRICE JUNK

Basic...has no carpet, no TV screen, no power windows and doors, no backup camera,....basic has a radio, a manual transmission, a heater with a blower, vinyl floor covering, and 2 doors...not paying for this crap.

As someone who literally grew up in Rams and doges, it doesnt make me sad if they shut down. They died to me already.

Lot rot is a real thing. Tires, batteries, plastic, leather, and rubber seals around doors, can start failing after sitting in the sun for over a year. Where I live, temperatures of 100° for a few weeks is common in the summer. The inside of the car gets even hotter, baking everything inside. Be careful when buying any vehicle that has sat outside for a long time. 🚗

I just purchased a used RAM with the 6.7 Cummins diesel. It's a 2020 and only had 20k miles on it, fully loaded with heated/cooled leather seats, adaptive cruise control and the big screen. Not much has changed since 2020 on their hd trucks so i couldn't see spending over $80k for a new one. The previous owner took very good care of it, had it paint corrected and then ceramic coated along with clear protective film on the front and on bottom behind the wheels. This was all done at a professional shop and shows on the carfax. I got it for a little over $50k.

They're gonna have to give those trucks away because anyone that could afford to buy one already has.

Thanks for posting this video. Funny story...I special ordered that High Altitude 4xe your sister highlighted and decided I didn't want it because a Rubicon better fit my needs. Peterson ordered the Rubicon X 4xe for me and at the time of order the hitch and auxiliary switches were standard equipment. Jeep changed that while the vehicle was in production and shipped the Rubicon X without those features. The dealership refused to advocate for me with Jeep Cares to have the equipment added so I completely backed out of the deal. The Rubicon X stickered for $78K and the dealership wanted me to pay an additional $1833 to added standard equipment. I ultimately ordered the vehicle from another dealership and took delivery back in May and got a better deal. So, not only does this dealership have a $72K High Altitude sitting on the lot, the also have a $78K Rubicon X 4xe sitting on the lot all because they couldn't be bothered to do the right thing. I hope they are enjoying that floor plan cost.
