I was out running errands this morning and one of them was to check out a 2021 Silverado High Country at a local dealership. (I know. Chevy sucks blah blah blah)

Adjusted price for the High Country is $63,810. Trade in allowance on my 2018 LTZ is $38,000.

Toss in tax and the balance is $27,487.

I think I'll hold on to my 2018 for a bit yet.

We looked at F150s with my inlaws this spring.

Only had one Lariat on the lot...for $73k.
And it was a 6 cylinder.

You got that right. I’m hoping supply catches up by next year. I’d like a new dually.

It’s just the wrong time to buy. I wasn’t overly serious, more curious. I did drive a ‘21 LTZ Z71 also. Pretty much a duplicate of what I’m driving now. The difference there was my truck and $15,800.

Trucks are big profit makers for all mfgs. And a clean one won't depreciate like a car does here in the south.

Tell that to the dealers who keep junk mailing me blue book offers for a trade in on my 2012 Silverado that has 20k mile on the odometer Not that it matters, the truck will outlast me and making monthly payments for anything isn't on my wish list of things to do before I die.

Had the crowd plow in the local blue oval last week for a "free" oil change. Largish place: there were exactly 2 F series trucks on the entire lot. You were fortunate to even see a new truck at your local dealer.
