Everyone is under water from the covid prices. When market hits harder then reality.
Yep… I am in the sub prime auto lending space and the recoveries from the repos are so far off of the principal balances being written off. Has a lot of buy here pay here’s hurting.

Seen it all the time when I was in the car business. Customers think their ride is worth what they owe. Told more than one before, If you owed $1 would you take $1. Twenty or so years ago Mitsubishi was selling Montaro Sports and advertising 0 down, 0 payments for a year, and 0 interest for 72 months and approving subprime. Talk about buried

I've officially seen the most negative equity in my lifetime being in the car business. I didn't even really appraise it because there was nothing we could do and the guy got all huffy puffy about it. His 22 F-150 was worth about 40k. He owed 81,500 and wanted to trade into a diesel and keep his payments about the same.
Life at a car dealership..... How is that possible

All those people that had to have a vehicle and paid dealer markups are going to be hurting when they go to buy a new one.

Life at a car dealership..... How is that possible I'm guessing he bought it in 22 for 15-20k over sticker and rolled another 20K+ of negative equity into it then financed it somewhere over 10%

Life at a car dealership..... How is that possible Lenders were too generous and if you have stout enough credit they were loaning upwards of 140-150% LTV plus taxes and fees

My grandfather taught me Life lesson 1. Pay as you go and you never owe. Interest is the devil. And when you go out, always pay cash. He said with a credit card or debit card you dont see the money leave your hand. With cash you see it and feel it. The wife and I have 0 debt other then our house. And we will have it paid off in 6 months. If not sooner. My ego boost is going into a dealership and writing a check for the difference. We have a few credit cards we use to get points. We used our AA card to pay for our Alaska trip next month. We already have enough points for 3 round-trip tickets. And our balance is 0. I see boat ads offering up to 10 years to pay. I love to fish. But not enough to do something that stupid.

He got what he deserved. Stupid people. It's Midland. Ever truck out there they want 10-15k more than you can buy one in Dallas for. Truth! Some dealers in Midland and Odessa still have market adjustments listed on vehicles. Car dealing has always sucked out this way. Thats a fact, But it has been that way as long as I can remember.
Sometimes what didn't work out for you, did in fact, work out for you.

But I took a lot of chances, is what it is.

I remember those years with 3 small children and living paycheck to paycheck....washer or dryer quit and having to go to Sears and put it on charge account and pay 18% interest...miss two paychecks and you would lose everything you had.....those were the good ole days but not financially good ole days...fortunately always was able to buy car,finance it three years,pay it off and get another....

And book values are lower than the market by a lot right now. During covid I sold some trucks for 50k that NADA trade value was 70k.
