Good news for the truck market?

Looks like the Big 3 are starting to accumulate a surplus of pickup trucks. Maybe we'll see some price concessions?

Video - Cars Return to Dealer Lots. Interest Rates Could Make Them a Harder Sell.

“At Adam Lee’s Jeep dealership, customers are seeing something they haven’t in years: lots of new cars. But while supply is returning, higher interest rates are hitting demand and sparking concerns that 2023 could be another turbulent year for the car industry.”

Sure wish they would get away from who has the most horse power and torque race  and more about best quality, rust protection and longevity. The design obsolescence approach drives me crazy. They can keep their trucks I’m good for a while.

How about lowering them back to the height they were in the 70s and 80s? You shouldn't need a step ladder to reach into the bed of your truck. Makes no sense.

Saw this beauty in a dealership. (And, no, it's not for sale!)

....but, the step ladder is now part of the tailgate - the ladder "comes-with"!  HA!

OBTW:  That's a real nice looking non-crew cab long bed in the pic!
