Did i just get lucky??

You got lucky if it’s sold to you at MSRP. No one paying ADM is lucky.

This is your view. If OP thinks he got a great deal, then you should be happy for him. No need to clog up the thread going on a tangent about MSRP.

I paid 6 over for my 37. Have ZERO buyers remorse. Why you ask? Because I can turn around and sell it for probably double my ADM.

OP. Congrats man. Looks like you found a loaded 35. Let’s see some pics if the deal goes through!

I Don’t understand what your deal is. What do you care how someone else spends their money? Give it a break already everyone on this board knows your stance. Jeez.

You don’t have to ask why I care if everyone knows my stance.

Every person who claims *this market* and pays ADM means another dealer jacks up their price for the next guy.

100% valid if you’re going to flip it now. If you plan to keep it a few years then not so much.

Stop Sasquatching the guy's thread.

At what point is "this market" actually this market? I got extremely lucky and paid MSRP for a Raptor I stumbled upon at a small dealer last fall, but almost every single car buyer in 2022 has not been as fortunate. The truth it that the average price of EVERY new car sold this year to date has sold for 9.9% OVER the MSRP - yes, people are paying over MSRP for Hyundais, Toyotas, Hondas, and every other econobox you can imagine. And while I agree that isn't ideal, the alternative is buying a used car that's gone up approximately ~35% since this time last year.

While I appreciate your view that paying ADM isn't the best practice, the fact of the matter is that's what the current market dictates. The instances of those paying MSRP are indeed the exception, not the rule.

And to the OP, yes, you just got lucky! Buy that non Prius, and enjoy the heck out of it! CONGRATS!

Congrats man! I’ve got the same truck and also in the ATL area!

OP-congrats on the new truck!


Never mind the "noise".
