Ridiculous Price on New trucks

[Gclyde28]

Most builders can get price locks through their source. Got a good buddy that can get lumber "cheap" through his mccoys account because he buys so much lumber and price is locked quarterly

I seriously doubt anyone's price is locked quarterly right now. Our company's lumber pricing had been negotiated quarterly through a group buy until the last year. Now things are getting re-adjusted monthly. The market is just too volatile right now.

Guess he's just lucky then..

I'll walk before I buy a 75,000 truck. Period.

inflation. You ain't seen nothing yet.

This unfortunately. We are just on the cusp of it taking off.

I always buy “work truck” package trucks and am probably due a new one, but even those packages are now in the mid $40k range. Other than high miles and age, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with trucks I have, so I’ve decided to keep driving what I have.
For me, occasional minor repair is cheaper than having a monthly truck note.

He put a "lol" at the end. I believe he was joking.

Thank you for picking up on the sarcasm. Was starting to wonder on some of the responses lol.

If you think this is ridiculous you should see the insane increase in wakeboard/wakesurf boats. Some of these boats, not yachts, no bathroom, no sleeping quarters are running $250,000 - $280,00. These are ski boats that in 2005 cost $50k.

You want the federal government to step in so you can afford an $80K truck?

Clearly i was joking. If i want an $80k half ton truck, I'll go buy one. But what about in 2 more years when an F150 Lariat is $100k then 2 more years its $120k and so on lol. Vicious cycle and unless the average American's wages go up to match, could get ugly or crash. Just blows my mind that a half ton truck is more than some people's mortgage these days....not a diesel, a regular ole half ton V6!

Quarterly doesn't do you much good right now.

4th quarter of 2020 was already sky high.

The huge increase happened in quarter 2 of 2020.

Futures are still climbing, but nothing like the initial leap.
