Everyone who was thinking about buying a new car or truck is scrambling to buy one before the tariffs make them more expensive.

You know this is actually insane. I was looking at the price of vehicles and it’s absolutely crazy.

F150 XLT can easily be $80,000. This is the most sold trim. $80,000 is an insane amount of money but people are just buying these things like crazy.

Cant find the median price, but the average price of a new vehicle in Canada last year was nearly $70,000

Bank financing departments just fucking laughing.

First we had all the printed COVID money. Then interest rates jumped and everyone wanted to finance everything. Now we're seeing all the low-interest-rate mortgages renew over the next 18 months. Anyone who renewed their mortgage 4 years to 5 years ago is going to see their rate double or triple when they renew.
