If you'd saved up the money to buy your new truck along with the money recieved for your trade or outright selling of your present truck, you'd have NO payments! As in ZERO! Also would have collected some intrest on the saved money along the way and would not pay out any money for interest with payments for years that you wouldn't have.
Problem solved!
Money has time value!
Who said anything about payments - I'm talking about price - period.
And if I sell/trade my truck, what does that have to do with the price, the price is the price ... and it's increased at a faster rate than everything else, including all those "value-less" dollars the feds print. If they're so value-less, just give some extra to me in the form of a check, or even cash will do.
My point, vehicle sales prices increased much faster than our pay checks ... so, where does that value fall into the economic engine that drives our recovery? That's what I'm wondering ...
And some of the answers here don't address that, like trade and save money. SO,if I trade and save money, does that mean the truck cost less? And the trucks need less equipment in Mexico, so they sell for less. What does that have to do with truck price in USA?
