The prices of new and used vehicles haven't jumped this much, this fast in decades

Vehicle transaction prices — the price you actually end up paying after any dealer discounts or markups — have been climbing higher and faster since 2020 than any other point in more than 35 years, according to recent data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The consumer price indexes for both new and used cars — the average changes in vehicle transaction price over time — are much higher than they were four years ago in 2019. There is a silver lining.

Over the used car market’s worst 12 months of the pandemic, the index rose 45%. There’s never been a 12-month period since the BLS began keeping records in 1947 when used car prices have inflated more. Recent trends in prices have been similar across regions of the United States, though in some areas, the starting prices may be higher than others. Preferences for more expensive vehicles in some areas drive these regional differences, Drury said.

Isn’t it obvious at this point that Trump scares Joey and all other DEMs so much that there doing whatever they can to stop him. Let’s face it, the world was a much better place under Trump. Under Biden the US is a JOKE and we will all pay the price!

Who would want to spend 1,000 a month for a new car and probably 6 or 700 a month for a used car. That used car is probably a 15% interest rate. Automobile dealers thought they had a good a few months ago the tide has changed they'll be weeping shortly
