  • So annoying

    The amount of times Zach says “ just to remind you CarEdge bla bla bla” throughout the podcast is so annoying.

    There’s no need to advertise their company every 5 minutes.

    It has put me off listening.

    I reside in Australia but I still enjoy listening to this podcast about USA car market conditions. Often what happens economically in the USA flows down to Australia. It is refreshing to hear motivated hosts talking about a their passionate topic. I would rate higher than 5 stars if I could. Keep up the great work gents

YOUR Car Questions Answered LIVE | Q&A With a Former Car Dealer | Episode 1098
Q: How should someone approach buying or leasing a new car if they haven't been in the market since 2019?
Start by assessing how long you plan to keep the car and your mileage, then examine scenarios for buy-new-keep-long, buy-CPO-keep-short, and lease cycles; use a data-informed comparison table to estimate total costs over the intended ownership period and factor in warranties and maintenance costs.
YOUR Car Questions Answered LIVE | Q&A With a Former Car Dealer | Episode 1098
Q: What is the best way to purchase and retain a vehicle? Is it better to buy new, lease, or purchase a certified pre-owned vehicle specifically? Would a three-year-old CPO be better and then repeat the cycle?
The panel suggests that for many buyers, a three-year-old manufacturer-certified pre-owned vehicle often provides the best balance of warranty coverage and depreciation, especially if you plan to keep the car for two to three years and don't drive extreme mileage; new cars incur steep depreciation in years one to three, while pure leases can be more expensive long-term depending on usage and incentives.
Toyota Seriously HAS NO MORE CARS | How Did This Happen? (UPDATE) | Episode 1094
Q: How should buyers approach pricing and discounts given the current market?
Discounts for popular models are usually limited to MSRP plus a $299 documentation fee, with some exceptions; the real value lies in post-sale service and ongoing support from a trusted dealer.
Toyota Seriously HAS NO MORE CARS | How Did This Happen? (UPDATE) | Episode 1094
Q: Are there any cheaper or alternative options for customers who can't wait?
Dealers suggest considering similar Toyota options like the Corolla Cross or Highlander if timing is critical, but the general idea is to explore nearby alternatives rather than sticking rigidly to a single model while the wait persists.
Toyota Seriously HAS NO MORE CARS | How Did This Happen? (UPDATE) | Episode 1094
Q: What is going on in Toyota land with the RAV4 and overall supply?
The RAV4 is the hot item with a multi-month wait (around four months) due to production constraints, redesign, and high demand; dealers are dealing with limited allocations and some regions see extreme deposits, but the overall message is that supply is tight and unlikely to improve quickly.
