Stephanie Crawford+FollowNew Cars Now Cost as Much as a House?!Walking into a luxury car dealership these days feels like stepping into another world—SUVs and trucks with six-figure price tags are flying off the lot. But for the rest of us? The average new car now costs over $50k, and banks are stretching loans to 7 years just to keep monthly payments “affordable.” Only 7% of new cars are under $30k.

Jacqueline Farrell+FollowNew Cars Are Basically a Luxury NowDid you know almost half of new cars are now bought by households making over $150k? The average new ride just topped $50k, and those under $40k are gathering dust because regular folks can’t afford them anymore. The car market’s turning into a luxury club, and the gap between who can and can’t buy is only getting wider. Is buying a new car now just for the rich? #Cars #BuyingCar #CarMarket00Share
Douglas Hughes+FollowWhy Car Lots Are Suddenly OverflowingNew car lots are packed again, but buyers? Not so much. After years of empty lots and sky-high prices, dealers are now swimming in unsold cars as shoppers balk at $50K price tags and hefty monthly payments. The result: discounts are back, used cars are getting all the love, and only high-income buyers are still splurging on those shiny new SUVs. If you’re car shopping, it’s officially a buyer’s market—just don’t get sticker shock! #Cars #BuyingCar #CarMarket138Share
Samuel Gutierrez+FollowWhy Your Car’s Value Feels Like a RollercoasterEver feel like your car’s worth is changing faster than your coffee order?

The money move? If you’re thinking of buying or selling, focus on flexibility and don’t get stuck with a big car payment you might regret later. #Business #CarMarket #MoneyHacks00Share

If you’ve been waiting for deals, this might be your moment—but for sellers, it’s about to get real competitive. The days of easy sales and big markups are over.

dalemiller+FollowCollector Cars: Who’s Hot, Who’s Not in 2025The collector car market isn’t crashing, it’s just getting a makeover! Boomers are stepping back, and Gen X/Millennials are chasing 90s and 2000s icons like Skylines and Supras, while old-school classics (think E-Types and Mustangs) are losing their shine. Only 8% of models are up, with the rest flat or down. The new rule? Do your homework—data is king now. If you’re buying or selling, it’s all about knowing which rides are rising and which are stuck in reverse. #Cars #CollectorCars #CarMarket00Share
Evan Knight+FollowCollector Car Market Hits 15-Year SlumpCar collectors are feeling the sting: Hagerty’s Market Rating just dropped to its lowest point since 2009. Prices at auction are down, and those pandemic-era surges? Gone. Everyday classics are losing value, but there’s a twist—newer models and ‘80s-2000s rides are still hot with younger buyers. It’s not a total crash, but the market’s definitely cooling off. If you’re holding onto a garage full of classics, it might be time to rethink your strategy! #Cars #CollectorCars #CarMarket20Share
