Re ran the Outback through CarMax. Officially worth more than we paid for it. Equity went up.

Hahahaha.
Seriously though, there is nothing to get. I can’t sell it now and wait for another Jeep to get here in 9 weeks.
Yesterday the CDJR dealer had 1 Grand Cherokee L, 2 Gladiators and 0 Wranglers. Looked like they had a handful of Ram’s but they were in back. Fair amount of used inventory though and heavy on the trucks.

Yep, selling one and making a profit does you no good if you can’t replace it.

Looks good with the new shoes @qbrozen . How much did those set you back? What brand/model are they? Do you have to have your Speedo recalibrated?

did discover they have a pretty slick on-line modelling and purchase application that I tried out. Pick the car, and model all your finance and purchase options. click on years and miles (for a lease) and a slider for $ DAS and see your payment. Apparently there is also a button to "buy now" but I decided not to click on that!
seems that they are at least selling at MSRP, since that was used for both purchase or lease. Better than a lot of places.
was surprised that the leases were not as absurd as a lot these days (though not as good as the glory days of that one bank). a 4 door SR5, MSRP ~$39,100 was a 36/10 of $442 with $1,100 DAS. A TRD sport premium, sticker a touch over $45k, was about $512 with same DAS.
not that far off the 1% target. I probably should have driven one of those at some point (still plenty of time!) since the Maverick is probably going to lease out at about the same as the SR5.

My best friend owns a few restaurants. One of his delivery vehicles (2019 Prius L Eco w/ 80K miles) was sitting in a parking lot that filled up with water during Ida. It drove for 3 days, then had a “hybrid system failure” light when they went to drive it the 4th day. Water seeped into the carpet, and made its way into the hybrid battery pack. Car is totaled. He’s trying to decide what he should replace the Prius with as a secondary delivery vehicle. He also has a 2020 Corolla Hybrid as a primary delivery vehicle.
He might go with another Prius, although there aren’t any L Eco models in our area. He might go with an SR Tacoma (Access Cab/Long Bed 4cyl) for about the same price.
One dealer he called is getting $2K above sticker on all vehicles (plus an $800 conveyance fee). Another dealer is getting sticker for every car (plus a $1000 conveyance fee).

speaking about Maverick, I was debating with the wife whether I should have added more options (meaning spend more money!) Her opinion was she would have just gotten everything, just in case. Lady must be made of money I don't know about! So I emailed the contact at my dealer, asking if they could make any changes to my order (even though they accepted it with a build date and VIN).
I figured No, and he confirmed it, but said he was happy to order an "additional" one for me. I did not Email back to make sure, but seems that I would not have to cancel the first one. I guess dealer is happy to guarantee at least 1 stock unit out of me! Not sure what Ford will think about it though since require a DL so would be easy to tell they were double booking me.
Don't think I will but could always change my mind at any point and do it.

Digging the driveway stone. The car, too.
is the BMW gone yet?

At another location, he does have a Prius Prime which gets a solid 10 mpg better than the Prius L Eco. The Prime doesn’t have a spare tire and doesn’t have a fully flat floor with the seats folded.
He’s owned/leased way too many GM cars to trust them for his business.

My broker has just seriously upped his 4Xe game. It’s gotten me thinking about placing an order.

Is that the 10% off for a $60k build?

Got them on ebay. $900 for the set of 5.
I don’t HAVE to get the speedo recalibrated, but I probably will. I wasn’t going to worry about the speed differential, but it would appear to be messing with the TPMS. Was reading about 7-8% lower than what my manual gauge tells me.

Depends on the MSRP
Sahara & High Altitude
7.5 off for less than $58,500
8 off for up to $60,500
8.5 off for more than $60,500
Rubicons are 7.5 or 8 off depending on the MSRP
It’s definitely not the cheapest deal out there. Especially since there is a bump in money factor. The dealer is 1 state away and I won’t have to pay for shipping.
2001 Prelude Type SH, 2022 Highlander XLE AWD, 2022 Wrangler Sahara 4Xe, 2023 Toyota Tacoma SR 4WD
So they aren’t as cheap as @28firefighter’s deal for sure. I think there have been 2 MSRP price hikes and some optional equipment made standard since he ordered his. Considering what’s going on as far as automotive sales with a lot of Cars going for MSRP or even MSRP plus. Also it’s a Wrangler which means it will hold its value quite well. It’s the deal in this market.

For what little it's worth, I feel like you should stick with your current Maverick. You still have payments on the RDX for a few years, and so unless you're made of money it seems like it makes sense to keep the payments somewhat lower on the second vehicle. With the discount you got, you're only a few thousand above your goal of 25k. But with TTL the real price of your Maverick will be close to 30k. And before that weren't you thinking of getting a low-cost used car so that you wouldn't have two big car payments at the same time? Seems like what's more important than heated seats is just having a good vehicle that might help with a potential move. And as the chip shortage gets worse, it's not clear how easy it will be to get another Maverick if you let this one go.
Would you be able to sell your Pilot at a nice price as part of this deal? If so, seems like it might make sense.
I think he still needs a three row vehicle.

So a Sahara with a $59k (ouch!) sticker probably ends up around $500/month for 10k miles and $1000 DAS? Roughly.

The broker i used is 10% off for $60k+ builds. So an extra 2%, which is $1200, which is more than I paid for shipping, fyi. It is shipping and broker fee combined, however. BUT, $250 doc fee helps AND sold order protection, meaning the sale price, RV, and MF are locked at time of order. I have yet to find another dealer willing to do that.

I always wondered how you recalibrate the speedo on a modern car. Is it as simple as tweaking it with a scan tool? I think in the old days it involved changing gears or something on the cable.

Bought this for my wife…. Does it count as a punch? Lol.
2023 Mercedes EQE 350 4Matic / 2022 Ram 1500 Bighorn, Built to Serve
Yes on the old way. And yes on the new way, but not just any scan tool. I can buy one for $155, but seems excessive when the dealer would do it for a similar price. So I’ll likely just have them do it when I take it in for the updates @28firefighter mentioned.

2017 Cadillac ATS Performance Premium 3.6
Wagon's residual is 45K, I think that might end up being the top of my budget (assuming I don't lease something else), as I already feel like I am re-enacting The Money Pit.
Are you considering only vehicles by Mercedes Benz, or is there anything else in the mix? When is your lease up?
I’m seriously racking my brain trying to decide if there is a play here with the Outback.
Three ideas:
Model 3 SR+ if I can find one - short term play that we would eventually flip.
Model Y LR
ID.4 Pro S AWD (least favorite, but has $7500 tax credit)
Pros of the wagon: comfortable good looking rare car, I should easily have ~10K in equity if I buy it for the residual, lowish miles, has a set of snow tires/wheels, hardwired dashcam is set up, etc
Cons: still dear, white paint isn't chip-repellant, maintenance costs, I feel like I am abusing it on some road surfaces here
I know even in this market, some trucks especially can have decent lease deals, but then I'd have to migrate the dashcam, but would also have half the monthly bill.
Flipping it is tempting too, wonder if it would be worth the effort, or if I'd have seller's remorse.
