I traded the wife’s 16 explorer and was super happy getting a certified 2020 Yukon slt for 50k they gave me 9k less than I bought the explorer for in 17 and she put 93k miles on it so was good for me. Even delivered it for free 540 miles one way. Have to search be are some deals out there but really far and few

Prices are up. But if you look, you can find decent (considering the market) deals. Scored a 2020 6.2ltr GMC Denali (up optioned), a 73k truck, with 8,000 miles. For 55k, included was the extended warranty, 5y 100k bumper to bumper.
To get this top teir truck, at base model cost. I'm pretty happy.
EDIT
This truck is considered NEW, it was driven by the owner of Mauer GMC. So its never been registered or titled. So has all the new vehicle purchase perks.

Hahaha you dont need it with all da bajillions yah make gambling.

Most of the online casinos in MI are not easy money with the exception of Bet River's welcome bonus. Some of the bonuses offered are really not much of a deal at all. So far I played 6 MI online casinos and their welcome bonuses. Here they are in order of best to worst that I played.
1. Bet Rivers
2. Golden Nugget
3. Draft Kings
4. Bet MGM
5. Four Winds
6. Twin Spires (verdict is still out on this as it is a loss rebate and not a deposit match. However, the loss rebate is paid in site credits)

So far I played 23 times at the MI online casinos which includes the mini bonuses they offer. I won on 22 out of the 23 times with wins ranging from $2 to over a $1,000. I like the mini bonuses where the play thru doesn't take every long, but you might only win something like $40.

Micky D's ceo on the business show this morning.* Box chicken went from 40 bucks to 130 bucks.* ANyone got any ideas what would cause that??????* I think the same thing as lumber prices.* Price gouging.* Isn't there some guberment agency that is supposed to protect the consumer??* Oh thats right there is shortages....

It is not gouging. For the last year plus the majority of all the restaurant s have either been closed completely or cut way back to take out only. The supply chain changed to service the businesses that were still open. Like grocery stores. Many meat products have distinct packaging that differentiate fast food vs regular grocery products. Then all of a sudden they let all the restaurant s open up at the same time. This has set up new supply issues for both the restaurant industry and the grocery industry. You can't just flip a switch. It is going to take time for everything to settle down. Prices will remain high for a few months.

I recall the big 3 or 4 offering huge cash back incentives over the past 10 years or so after they had successfuly jacked truck prices to the sky the previous years.

7.3% would be a deal. I was looking at a 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera it had 30,000 miles on it and they were asking 70k in August 2019. I didn't buy it because I thought that price was a little steep. That same car is 100k all day long right now. Everything is crazy. I am about to sell my boat for 5k less than what I paid for it 13 years ago.

Just saw this, kind of confirms the crazy prices.

Average used-vehicle prices were up 48% in May from a year earlier, according to an index produced by auction company Manheim, Inc

Carvana definitely got the memo, they’re going to pay me $9000 more than what I paid for my 2020 tundra, last month it was $7000 more, definitely going the right way, I think I’ll wait another month and see what they offer me then

They hit you high and then walk it back when they see your vehicle.  Least that was my experience.  Fuji always finds the deals.  I think the rest of us pay a little more to make up for it.  He knows how to shop.

I think the key is age and miles, the longer owned and driven the more minor scuffs etc.
I sold two that were both under 15,000 miles and they took them away with no deduction.
The 2020 Passat I have today will go in December and have 32k in miles..I will have to plan on a $500 deduction at pickup so my expectations stay happy. Crap on the roads up here and farm semis as oncoming traffic at 70 MPH all day long are hard on the front fascia; grit marks everywhere.

I got a feeling my miles didn't fit there profile.

But the same truck they offered $8500 for are $20,000+ on the lots after a "discount"
