Are new pickup trucks pricing themselves out of existence? In this video, I break down what’s really going on with the new truck market—and why we may be heading toward a major slowdown or collapse. From $70K–$100K price tags to rising interest rates and shrinking middle-class budgets, something isn’t adding up. As a truck owner and someone who’s been around these vehicles for years, I’m giving you a real-world perspective—not dealership talk, not corporate spin. Just the truth about what people can actually afford… and what’s sitting on lots. We’ll cover: Why new truck prices have skyrocketed How financing is changing the game What this means for buyers, sellers, and the used market Whether now is the worst (or best) time to buy If you’re into trucks, working on them, or thinking about buying one—this is something you need to see.

$60~$80k is a lot to pay for spyware wrapped in sheet metal.
Modern trucks completely overbuilt unnecessary for comfort and luxury but completely UNDERBUILT for actual reliability and purpose.
The only vehicle you can truly afford is the one you can pay cash for.
There's an old saying..."Parts are cheaper than payments."
I am with you. People have lost their minds paying over $100,000 for a truck
I got a truck repossessed in 2012 after I got hurt and was out of work for 3 months. It changed my life. I paid cash for a cheap truck the next month I have never had a car payment since.
This is my first time seeing this man, but I immediately respect his character.
Ford needs to bring back the f100 regular cab long box with the straight 6 300ci vinyl vinyl 😊
Never tell a salesman what you want to pay a month. Not a good place to work from.
Most car dealers and politicians are the biggest liars on the planet.
This man’s videos should be required viewing for every high school in America. Nothing but truth and wisdom being delivered here.

I work for Ford. We build over 500 F150's a day plus the Transits. I can't even afford the trucks we make. Smh
They don't call them stealerships for nothing
Most US pickup trucks have nothing to pick up.
Every time someone posts a video like this the value of my 2008 ford ranger sport goes up lol.
Car dealers are not in the business of selling you a car, they are in the business of selling you a loan. That's their business model. They are a financial business.
"no hearse with a trailer hitch" worth remembering
The prices have never been higher and the quality has never been lower.
