The industry's pivot from selling transportation to peddling debt has reached its logical, painful conclusion. This market correction serves as a stark reminder that financial engineering cannot indefinitely mask a fundamental lack of consumer value.

I'mma still get my dinner date in my 2015 Toyota Tundra, baby. And she got 150,000 miles. Still crank up. It smell good inside. I got it clean.
You know, it sit on them big wheels and tires. I don't get, you know, I kind of messed up my gas mileage even more, but it's okay. We going to ride. And that V8 5.7 just drink gas. So when we driving, you might see the handle go like this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But we still going to ride. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to get rid of that god dog on Corvette. I don't know. I love it though, man. You know, I love my Corvette, man. But I don't know.
You know, that was like my my uh gift to me type of deal, you know, uh two years ago. That was like something that was personal to me after uh losing, you know, after losing my dad and and and and we built that my Toyota Supra and we pushed about 600 almost 700 horsepower in that car. Me and my dad tuned that car and everything, man. And after I lost my father, I got rid of the Supra and and bought me a Corvette, man. So, you know, and that was per that was kind of like a personal thing. So, I don't know. I I that's why people be asking me, "Do you do you want to sell your Corvette? My MAGA Corvette? It's red.
It's torch red.
And when Trump won the election, that's when I, you know, that's when I right before Trump won, right when he was uh during the election, that's when I bought it. So that was like that was like a personal thing for me. And I called it the MAGA Corvette, you know, all all the if you're new here, if you if you're not if you're new here, you I'm telling you the story now, you know.
But let's get into this, man. Car dealerships are getting what they deserve finally. Y'all been sending this to me to check out and react to on the show. And again, man, I want to tell you guys that I love you. Uh, don't care what side you're on, who you vote for, what you look like, what your skin color is. If you're a non-believer, a believer, if you don't believe in anything, if you believe in the boogeyman, man, I want to tell you that I love you. I hope that you're blessed, you're well, you're healthy. I want to send my love, my prayers to you, that you have an awesome life in this fast time travel. You know, there's a reason I'm wearing my hat right now with pride and I'm smiling.
I'm talking to you guys cuz I know there's somebody tuned in right now and saying the hell with this guy. He got a Make America Great hat on and then he got the Make America Great hat on the Elon Musk edition.
So now they really hotter than Fish Grease cuz that that you're the same person just like me that drove off the lot in that in that Tesla and lost about $40,000.
Yeah, I lost $40,000, y'all, owning a Model 3 and Model Y.
And now we own a Model X, and I got that for 17 grand.
It only has 60,000 miles on it. Yeah, true story. But back in 2017, somebody paid a hundred grand for that vehicle, and I got it for 17 grand. Model X. The doors go up like this, like a butterfly.
Yeah. And the supercharging's free. So make sure you if you buying a Tesla, get a used one. Rick put you on free game. I gave you good advice. Get a used one or go to the auction and get you a Tesla.
They hold no value. EVs hold no value.
So in a used EV, and again EVs are not for everybody cuz look, I'm an engine guy, but I love EVs, but EVs are not for everybody. You know, I like engines. I like clutches, stick shifting. I like all that stuff, but EVs are not for everybody, so do your research before you jump into that kind of uh uh market.
Well, let's get into this. I'm me talking. I didn't talk too much. Car dealerships are struggling like they've never been before. I mean, look at how full this dealership lot is. This is what you see everywhere, even at Mercedes Benz, a luxury brand that's supposed to sell quickly. Well, not anymore. It's quite surprising. And you just got to think it's everybody purchases vehicles in the United States on payments. But guess what's getting harder to obtain? The banks are starting to say, "You know what? We got to do more checks. $88,000 for a 2026 GLE 450."
>> How much how much they wanted for that?
>> $88,000.
>> $88,000,000 for a 2026 GLE 450.
>> You might think $88,000. Well, you're at Mercedes-Benz, so this is super expensive. But >> just keep in mind, I'm going to take you to multiple different dealers.
>> I just can't get over a hundred grand Fordo pickup trucks. 100 grand.
100 grand.
A 30 $40,000 truck is a hundred grand in this video. And you're going to see whether you go to Dodge Jeep and Ram, whether you go to MercedesBenz, whether you go anywhere, the prices are crazy everywhere. even at some of the manufacturers like Jeep that you would never think would be that expensive. And so, as every car is sitting longer now because they're not selling as quick, it's costing the dealership more money as well in floor plan cost. But look at this. $88,977 for a Jeep or Wrangler. Now, this is a Rubicon with the V8. That's why it's priced so high. But >> you got the V8 392 in it, but it still shouldn't be no 88,000 got dog on dollars.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I told you that we not in the business of selling cars anymore. We are in the business of selling loans.
Loans. And most people are upside down.
You know, it's bad cuz I was upside down and I got out of those them situations.
And like I say, I lost $40,000 easily and I'm still hurt. My feelings still hurt.
I could have went went and bought some more home improvement stuff with that money improving improving my home. You know, I just bought my house.
You know, I got to put had to put up a fence and basketball courts and shops and all kind of stuff. And maybe if I had that 40,000, I could have put I could have went to the little Aqua Life and bought me a little pool spa. But now I got to wait and took my $40,000 depreciation. Unbel I'm I'm still hotter than fish grease.
Whoa. Don't mean to interrupt, but y'all know this love is on my heart. And I wanted to bring you once again sponsorships and ads for you guys and your loved ones, man. Cuz you just never know what somebody is going through, man. and the ones we did previously on this show, y'all showed so much love and support to one another, man. And it's a blessing, you know, and I want to keep doing this, keep bringing on many of you guys campaigns and just being a blessing to you guys, you know, but this lady here, man, she's been a part of the show for quite a long time, man. Shout out to this beautiful lady here, Miss Christy.
She's been here for years, y'all. And it's crazy cuz she follows me on Facebook and my mom and uh she's been giving us updates of what's been going on and I just, you know, I've been getting so many people reaching out to me all over. It's been hard to keep up, but I've been seeing some of the updates, man. And we've been praying for this lady and um I came across a GoFundMe that she posted and I said, "You know what? I'm so she probably might be watching right now and seeing this and hey, here we go." you know, but uh um actually my mom donated to this one month ago. [snorts] So um $50 raised and um it's just a $6,000 campaign. So y'all can hit the links down below.
Again, if 6,000 people are watching this and one person donates $1, I mean, that's it. You know, just being a blessing. But she is going through it.
She says, "My name is Christy. I'm reaching out for support during a very challenging time in my life. I've been living with lupus, stage 2 kidney disease, rhinoids, saridosis, fibromyalgia, and several other autoimmune diseases. Recently, I received a difficult news that I have a tumor outside of my brain. This diagnosis has brought on severe migraines and has made it impossible for me to work, putting a tremendous amount of financial and emotional strain on my husband and me. The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward covering my doctor co-pays, prescriptions, and other monthly bills while I'm un unable to work. Every little bit helps to ease the burden and allow us to focus on my health and recover recovery rather than the amount expenses. Thank you so much to anyone who's able to help whether through a donation or by keeping us in your prayers. Kindness and support mean the world to us during this difficult journey. and I will be going on here to donate very shortly. But God bless Miss Christy. We're sending my love and prayers to you. And again, I've been seeing these updates and I just been praying. I'm like I she's posted the migraines a few days ago, but I just ran across this this GoFundMe. So I was like, we got to bring this to the sponsorships and ads for you guys and your loved ones. And again, I want to put you guys on my show. Reach out to me u once we do these these campaigns and we get more circled through. Please don't be afraid to reach out. Send it to me. I want to continue to be a blessing to you guys. But again, link is in the description box down below if you can.
Just even a couple cents, a dollar, you know, to be a blessing to Miss Christie.
But I love to see that my mom literally is the first donor on here. And this was one month ago. So there it is, y'all.
Link in the description box down below.
And let's get back into today's show.
I'm not rich y'all. I'm just like y'all.
you know, I've reached a little bit of success. You know, created my business.
It did went successful, then it failed, then it went successful. You know, we've been successful on a lot of other things, this platform, you know, but I'm just like y'all trying to make it, surviving, you know, and I'm grateful.
I'm thankful. I'm blessed, you know, for the little things that I'm able to come on here and have fun with y'all every single day. I'm grateful. I'm thankful. I'm blessed.
But I'm just like y'all, man. We are human beings at the end of the day, man.
And this stuff has gone to crap. It's gone to hell. We are not selling cars anymore, vehicles anymore. We are selling loans, you know, and the hell with the dealership. They are getting what they deserve. Let them rot.
>> Brand new. This is a used one. Brand new MSRP. You're talking about >> And it's used.
literally over a 100k for a Jeep. So whether you go with BMW or you go with Jeep or MercedesBenz, prices are crazy everywhere. And you're looking at a payment on this of roughly $1,500 per month. Not for 36 months. I'm talking about for 72 or 84month financing. This is what's going on in the car market. And to top it off, you have used vehicles stacking up that are finally depreciating. Values are going down, especially compared to what they did a few years ago. If you remember, the car market was crazy. Some vehicles were going up in value. Now, the same vehicle, Cadillac Escalade, is going down in value. We're getting back to a normal market, even though I mean 110,000 almost 111,000,000.
It's just too much money. That's you're telling me a $2,000 car payment. Over 91 grand for this 2026 Ram 1500. So, it's just proof that no matter where you go, they all have $100,000 vehicles.
Basically, whether you go to Ram, Jeep, Chevy, I mean, everywhere, this is the market that we're in in 2026. Car manufacturers got way in over their head. Even this brand Ram is learning, hey, we cannot sell these trucks that are this expensive. What are they doing?
$25,000 off. $25,000 off. Grand Cherokees, you can get 10 to 15 grand off. So, you're getting these huge discounts, which is putting their customers in a farther hole because it's the customers that bought a vehicle, let's say a year ago, 2 years ago, or even worse, 3 years ago, when customers were actually paying above MSRP and market adjustments. Well, guess what?
Now, that same manufacturer, they're devaluing their product, obviously saying, "Hey, it's not worth it. 67 grand for this 2026 Grand Cherokee. I really want to see what's behind what the It looks like there's another window sticker behind there. I wonder if they if actual Stalantis sent a new window.
>> The truck should be no more than $35,000.
And that's me being nice.
>> Sticker lowering the MSRP because these Grand Cherokees like this used to be 80 grand. So manufacturers are >> That's still too much.
80 grand, 60, 60 grand, 50, 50 grand is too much. Oh, wait. Oh, hell. We got an ad. Free. Free cash.
Not the socialist communist.
Things just can't be free. You got to be kidding. It's real. They say it's real.
Free cash. And all you need is your phone. You on your phone every single day. Now, it ain't a get-rich quick type of deal. But hey, 10, $20 a day, maybe even higher than that in some of these games, but from your phone, free cash.
Oh man, it's free. And you know what? It actually is easy free cash. I, myself, and friends have already started and made a few bucks these last few days, and you can, too. I mean, it's kind of like a little side hustle from your phone. And you can easily start for free by scanning the QR code on the screen or hitting the link in the description box down below. But as you see on the screen, it's very simple and easy. And you also have multiple options if you also want to spend a couple bucks in game to hit levels faster, which lets you unlock bigger offers and huge payouts. And that's how some users end up earning hundreds, even 500 or more on certain offers. But it's all up to you how you want to play it. Uh most people make 10 to 20 a day easily, you know, and uh to me that sounds like a win, you know. But also, if you scan the QR code on the screen or hit the link in the description box down below, they are giving you $10 to start. So don't miss out on the opportunity.
Still too much.
That truck shouldn't be no more than $30,000.
And that's me being nice. I'm going to get real mad and say $20,000.
Learning. They're getting what they deserve. They're screwed. And car dealerships are I mean, we can't even get started in there because we're not even allowed to buy a truck directly from Ram in America. If I want to buy this truck, I have to go through a third party dealership, which they're the ones stuck holding the bag. Now, at the end of the day, because they bought the car from Stalantis, so the manufacturer is getting stuck holding the bag like never before. Looks like there's two window stickers on this one, too. Let's see.
75,000 on this side, which >> is considered a cheap truck nowadays. 75 grand. 75,000.
>> Make itense, man. A payment of over $1,000 a month is 20% of car buyers.
They can't afford this anymore. You know, it's not an option. Let's see here. Yeah, 75 on this side as well.
Okay. I don't know if they were sending multiple window stickers to kind of lower the price a little bit because either way, they're going to lower it based on a discount or on the window.
You know, you're talking $20,000 off this truck and it still won't sell.
Nobody wants to buy it. It's overpriced and they can't afford it. They're really getting what they deserve. Well, this is what you're going to see car dealerships do. Now, ask about 0% interest rates.
So, 0% is the way that they go. Anytime dealerships get desperate, they have no other option. They have to get the 0% interest rate. What this is is normally not even from the manufacturer. Maybe the manufacturer like Chevrolet will have some sort of incentivized rate, so it will be lower, but it won't be zero.
And then the dealership will buy down the rate to 0% interest rate because they're desperate for business. This is a key sign. And this is what happened in 2020. Whenever the market was so afraid, 2019 going into 2020, January 2020, car dealerships were terrified. They didn't know what was going to happen. And guess what they did? 0% 0%. It's the best thing they've ever done with, you know, car selling cars. They were able to sell cars so easy. People were like, 0% interest? Sign me up. But guess what?
Now we're back to it, man. The car market is struggling again. And they're afraid just like they were afraid a few years ago. But this time, beautiful.
>> I don't think there's going to be a good outcome because no one's getting a bunch of free money. People are struggling in the car market is showing no matter where.
>> Ain't them new ones junk though? I think them new ones are junk. Huh? How y'all feel about them new Silverados? Are they junk? I like that. That little setup that one had though. That was a nice little setup.
>> Here you go.
>> And a beautiful color.
>> No matter what dealership you go to, it will be completely full. Look at this Honda dealership. Completely full. Honda was known to have a low day supply inventory-wise. Well, guess what? Now they're completely full of inventory.
They have all the stuff they ever need, and they're struggling to sell it. At least it takes more time. It's not like it was in 2020, 21, 22. Man, the times have changed quite a bit. I mean, let's look at this CRV right here. You're at 33,000 for this 2026 CRV with the 1.5T.
So, there you go, man. It's actually in stock. That's the crazy part. You go back to 2021.
>> That's crazy, man. That CRV should be about 20 21,000 flat.
21,000.
>> And you never had inventory. 2022 dealers were making more money than they ever thought they could make per vehicle. Those times are long gone. So, the way that we have to teach the dealership a lesson is don't pay a market adjustment. Don't pay over MSRP.
Don't play with these dealers. And people are they're watching videos like this. are learning to negotiate. They're not playing with the dealer. They're not wasting their time trusting the dealership thinking that they're on your side. Let me know what you think. And it definitely is not like it was a few years ago. They are struggling like they've never struggled before. The profit per vehicle, how much money they're making selling this vehicle is down 10 times from what it was 3 years ago. So, you see where the issue is. Let me know what you think. Have a great >> Oh boy. Oh boy.
It's gone to hell. Let it stay there.
They'll figure out. Yeah. Yep.
>> Want to really see something? Take a look what happened.
>> We will make America proud again.
[music] We will make [music] America wealthy again. And yes, together we will make America great
