Is it me just noticing them more or are they being sold at such a low price that buyers can't resist? Just an observation...... Last edited by taggart; 08-11-2008 at 04:34 PM. |

I also see new trucks and SUVs out and about. Then again, when you can buy a 2008 Titan Crew Cab for $13,000 off of MSRP, how could people resist. I mean that $13,000 is a lot of gas....   | |

We see it here, too... of course, we are also seeing a lot more Prius in our area! I think it's the lure of marketing... rebates, incentives, and a whole lotta bullshit. |

I had one guy brag to me that the talked the dealer down from$45,000 to about $32,000 for some huge 4x4. The whole time, I 'm thinking, the truck is really worth only $32,000 and GM has been making a total killing on these things. He complained that he didn't buy Toyota because they don't discount their prices. I think Toyota doesn't deeply discount because their price is close to fair. What do u guys think? Oh, and why do they drive those things at 90mph on these crappy two lane highways. The whole time, I'm thinking "there goes another gallon" |
