Like the title says, I am needing (mostly wanting) to buy my wife a new truck. We own a half ton Chevrolet and I am provided a half ton truck through work that I am allowed to use as my own. This is great but after moving out of town, we have acquired more heavy stuff (60 hp tractor, three horse trailer, 20 ft stock trailer) and some of these loads are getting a little heavy for my half ton. My wife’s truck is a 2020 and paid for but only worth about 28k. I was considering trading it in on an F-250 XLT with the 7.3 but I am seeing 55k. I work in sales and we don’t ever lower the price of anything, this has me thinking that even after the supply chain issues are fixed the prices of trucks will not come down. What is your opinion?

No announcement yet.
Will truck prices go down or is this the new normal?

Read an article in the WSJ last week that it will likely be another year before the supply chain for chips completely catches up. I wonder if there will be some good deals when they start trying to unload thousands of those 2021 models we see parked awaiting chips. By that time the 2023 models will be out as well. Will depend on demand I suppose…Last edited by jerp; 09-25-2021, 06:55 AM.

My wife went down to Bill Fick yesterday to look into ordering mine. They are charging MSRP over there and with my budget I doubt momma bear is gonna let me get that Tremor package. [emoji17]

It's straight up ridiculous.
A new Escalade was going to be $127K for my next employee - 112 list and a $15K upcharge.
She's gonna be getting a GMC.

He paid 10K over list for the GMC diesel he bought - 84K for a truck.

The only reason I am even considering it is because I can get 48k all day long for the Ram. Crazy times.
